About Hardee's
Hardee's is the East-Coast sibling of Carl's Jr., known for charbroiled Thickburgers and a made-from-scratch biscuit breakfast lineup including the Monster Biscuit.
Across more than 40 years of operation, the Hardee's menu has evolved into a mix of long-running classics and seasonal limited-time offers. The 10 items below are organized by menu category — appetizers and shareables first, then soups and salads, entrees, sides, desserts, and the bar program. Use the category links on each row to jump to a full comparison across every chain MenuDive covers.
If you are scanning prices ahead of a visit, note that Hardee's uses a $ price tier on MenuDive, with most entrees priced inside the range shown in each section. Lunch and weekday menus may apply lower fixed-price combos that are not always reflected in the standard dinner card. Where a chain runs a long-standing daily promotion (riblets at similar grill chains, Wing Tuesday at sports bars, Aussie 3-Course bundles at steakhouses) we have noted it inline.
