About the Cauli Dave's #4: 1 Cauli Slider w/ Fries
Cauli Dave's #4 is the entry-level numbered meal in the Dave's NOT Chicken lineup โ one brioche-bun Cauli Slider with pickles and kale slaw, plus a side of crinkle-cut fries, additional kale slaw, a drink, and Dave's Sauce. It's the complete single-person meal deal for someone who wants the full setup without going to a two-piece combo.
At roughly 950 calories and $12.99, the #4 is the most approachable way to get the whole Dave's experience โ slider, sides, drink, and sauce โ in one order. The bun and slaw buffer the rub, making it a friendly choice across all seven levels. Vegetarian but not vegan, since the batter, bun, and slaw dressing contain dairy and egg.
