What comes on a Dave’s Triple?
Three quarter-pound never-frozen beef patties, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, ketchup and mayo on a toasted bun. It’s the same recipe as the Dave’s Single and Double, just scaled up to three patties, three-quarters of a pound of beef in one sandwich.
Single, Double or Triple: how do they compare?
The build is identical across all three, only the patty count changes. Stepping up from the Double to the Triple adds 350 calories and 22g of protein for one extra patty.

Dave’s Triple questions
What comes on a Dave's Triple?
Three quarter-pound never-frozen beef patties, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, ketchup and mayo on a toasted bun, the same build as the Single and Double, just tripled on beef.
How many calories are in a Dave's Triple?
1,100 calories, with 72g of protein and 1,830mg of sodium, roughly 80% of the FDA's recommended daily sodium limit in one sandwich.
How much does a Dave's Triple cost?
This guide lists the standalone sandwich at about $8.77. Local prices vary.
Is the Dave's Triple worth it over the Double?
It depends on the goal. Stepping up from Double to Triple adds roughly a third more calories and protein for a smaller percentage increase in price, so it's a reasonable value move if you specifically want that much beef in one sitting. For most people, the Double already covers a full meal.
Is three-quarters of a pound of beef in one burger a lot?
Yes, by any standard measure. At 1,100 calories and 74g of fat, the Dave's Triple is one of the largest single items on Wendy's menu, more calories than a Baconator.
