How to order at Freddy's on a GLP-1
Freddy's is steakburgers and frozen custard, but it quietly publishes bowls, and the Grilled Chicken Bowl and Steakburger Bowl are two of the better GLP-1 orders in fast food, built from Freddy's own published nutrition and Nishi's transparent GLP-1 scoring lens.
Get a Grilled Chicken Bowl or a Steakburger Bowl with the dressing on the side, or order a steakburger No Cheese, and save the shoestring fries and the frozen-custard concrete for the treat.
Freddy's looks like a pure indulgence stop, steakburgers and frozen custard, but it's one of the better burger chains for a GLP-1 because it publishes bowls. The Grilled Chicken Bowl (dressing on the side) is 37 g of protein and just 10 g of carbs for 420 calories, and the Steakburger Bowl is 55 g of protein and 9 g of carbs, though at 45 g of fat it's a heavier pick. On the sandwich side, ordering a steakburger No Cheese keeps it lean: a Single is 380 calories with 24 g of protein, a Double is 570 with 43 g. The 3-piece Chicken Tenders are 35 g of protein for only 17 g of fat, and the sleeper is the Steakburger Taco at 360 calories, 25 g of protein, and just 560 mg of sodium, the lowest on the menu. Steer around the Prime Steakburgers (54 g of fat on a single patty), the fried Crispy and Spicy chicken, the shoestring fries, and the frozen-custard concretes, which are the real dessert.

Best proteins to build around
Numbers are for one published serving (one sandwich, bowl, or order) as Freddy's publishes it; Freddy's does not publish gram serving weights. Tap "Show the math" on any pick to see exactly how its rating was calculated.
Go easy on
- The Prime Steakburgers, the Prime line is fat-heavy, a single patty is 770 calories and 54 g of fat, so a regular steakburger ordered No Cheese is the leaner build; a Double No Cheese is 43 g of protein for 29 g of fat, more protein than the Prime single for far less fat.
- Fried chicken and sodium, the Crispy and Spicy chicken run higher in fat and sodium (the Spicy Chicken Sandwich is 1,630 mg), and the grilled bowls, tenders, and No Cheese steakburgers are the lower-sodium ways to hit the protein.
- Shoestring fries and frozen custard, the shoestring fries and the frozen-custard concretes and shakes are the signature treats and where the sugar and calories pile up, so order them on purpose, not by default.
