Can you make substitutions when ordering at Raising Cane’s?

Here are some popular substitutions.

  1. Order Texas toast to be BOB or buttered on both sides to get the ideal crispy, delicious slices of buttery garlic pleasure. The sandwich’s flavors are enhanced by the toast’s buttery undertones, making it the ideal meal to satisfy your Cane’s appetite.
  2. Tired of the same old sides at Raising Cane’s? Mix things up and swap out your coleslaw, fries, or toast for an extra serving of Cane’s Sauce. Some people don’t like the Texas toast and this swap can be a good option. And for those who are true fry fanatics, don’t forget to order them extra crispy to take your meal to the next level.
  3. Did you know that you can get a keto-friendly version of chicken tenders? If you’re trying to stay on a low-carbohydrate diet, order your chicken “naked” for a carb-friendly alternative. This means removing the crispy batter from chicken tenders. Your chicken will still be juicy and delicious even without the breading. 
  4. If you’re willing to pay $1 more you can upgrade to lemonade made with freshly squeezed lemons.

With these simple hacks, you’ll be able to fully savor every last bite of your Raising Cane’s feast.

Are you tired of seeing the same old Cane’s sauce at Raising Cane’s? Prepare to have your taste buds blown away. The restaurant also offers a less popular homemade honey mustard sauce that’s giving the original Cane’s sauce a run for its money.

The homemade honey mustard is honey, mustard, vinegar, and a secret blend of spices. The honey adds a touch of sweetness, while the mustard adds a touch of tanginess. The vinegar helps to balance out the sweetness and tanginess with the spices adding a depth of flavor. 

No, there’s no secret menu at Raising Cane’s. However, there are several TikTok videos have sparked rumors of a secret item called the “Caniac Mac” – a plate of mac and cheese. 

Raising Cane’s employees say it’s a myth and that the restaurant lacks the equipment to make it. Others claim that it’s a location-specific offering if you know the right code words. It’s difficult to imagine Raising Cane’s could have these additional ingredients at some locations but not others. According to the Raising Cane’s official website there’s no mention of mac and cheese being available anywhere. 

Is Raising Cane’s Cheaper than Chick-Fil-A?

Raising Cane’s gets a lot of comparisons to their competitor Chick-fil-A as both restaurants are laser-focused on delivering chicken. 

Raising Cane’s is generally cheaper than Chick-fil-A. For example, a 3-piece combo at Raising Cane’s costs $6.99, while a 4-piece combo at Chick-fil-A costs $7.29. Additionally, Raising Cane’s offers a variety of value meals that can save you money, such as the $5 Box Combo, which includes 2 chicken fingers, fries, Texas toast, and a drink.

Raising Cane's clothing.

Raising Cane’s has a really cool clothing line.

With that being said, keep in mind even though both restaurant sell chicken, they aren’t exactly the same. Each brand has their own sub-specialty and area of focus. Crispy waffle fries, a variety of sauce choices, and crunchy nuggets are all part of the Chick-fil-A experience. While Raising Cane’s offers crinkle-cut fries, Cane’s sauce, and fingers.
