Slim Chickens Kids
The kids menu keeps the format simple for younger eaters aged around ten and under, though age rules are set by each location. The Kids Tender Meal serves two tenders, fried or grilled, with Texas toast, a side such as fries or applesauce where offered, and a kids drink. The Kids Tender Bite Meal swaps the two tenders for four smaller Tender Bites, which many younger kids handle more easily. The Kids Mac is a plain kids size mac and cheese with a drink, the standard fallback for a child who does not want chicken. Portions are sized for kids rather than small adults, and the prices sit well below the adult meals.
Items and typical prices
Good to know
For families, the math usually works like this: kids meals cover the children, and the adults share a larger tender meal or a 5 and 5 rather than each buying a small meal. If your child eats more than a kids portion, the three tender Chick’s Meal from the tenders page is the natural step up and includes a full size drink. Sauce choice matters for kids: Slim Sauce and Ranch are the mild standards, and Honey Mustard is the common next step before anything with heat. Ask for sauces on the side so the child can dip at their own pace.
Ordering for a family
Family orders work best when you mix formats. Kids meals cover each child with a drink included, which removes the usual drink juggling. For adults and older kids, one Hungry Meal or one 5 and 5 Meal plus a shared fried side usually feeds two people at a lower total than two small meals. Most locations also sell family packs built around twelve or sixteen tenders with large sides, toast, sauces and tea, and those packs are worth asking about for groups of four or more, though their prices vary more by location than anything else on the menu, so confirm the pack price at your store. Finally, order sauces generously for a family table: extra cups cost very little, and kids who can choose their own dip tend to finish more of the meal.
About these prices
Prices at Slim Chickens are set by each franchise location, so the figure you see in a restaurant in Arkansas can differ from the figure in Texas or Colorado. Delivery apps add their own markup on top, which is why the same meal can look one to three dollars higher on a delivery listing than it does on the board in the restaurant. On this site we publish a typical price for every item: a mid figure taken from several public listings across different states, checked in October 2026. Use these figures to plan your order and compare items with each other, then confirm the exact price at your local restaurant or in the official app before you pay. That habit will save you from surprises, because limited time items, featured items and seasonal items can change price or leave the menu without much notice.
