TL;DR
Smalls Sliders introduces new Loaded Fries and dessert shakes for summer, available for a limited time. The brand, founded by Brandon Landry, has over 375 locations open or under development across 30 states.
Smalls' seasoned waffle fries just leveled up. The Loaded Fries arrive topped with warm queso, ranch, pickled jalapeños, and crispy bacon for the ultimate savory bite. The Loaded Fries will be available for a limited time through September 20.
Joining the lineup are two new sweet dessert shakes made with hand-spun vanilla ice cream. The Key Lime Pie Shake delivers a tangy, creamy twist inspired by the classic pie and topped with graham cracker crumbles, while the Banana Pudding Shake brings nostalgic banana flavor blended into a rich, smooth shake topped with whipped cream. The dessert shakes will be available through June 28, until new flavors slide thru.
"Loaded Fries have been one of the most requested menu additions from our fans and pairing them with two sweet dessert-inspired shakes felt like the perfect way to kick off summer," said Michael Alberici, Chief Marketing Officer at Smalls Sliders. “At Smalls, we're always looking for ways to make our menu even more craveable while staying true to what our guests love about the brand.”
Designed to pair perfectly with Smalls' signature cheeseburger sliders, the new lineup brings even more flavor variety to the brand's intentionally focused menu.
Smalls Sliders serves fresh, cooked-to-order cheeseburger sliders, seasoned waffle fries, and hand-spun milkshakes from its signature Smorange™-colored shipping containers, known as "Cans." The deliberately focused menu has fueled the brand's rapid growth from its first location in 2019 to more than 375 Cans open or under development across 30 states, attracting premier multi-brand franchisees nationwide.
Restaurateur and brand visionary Brandon Landry created Smalls Sliders, with backing from 10 Point Capital and former NFL star Drew Brees. For more information on how Smalls Sliders is the biggest thing to happen to burgers since buns, visit smallssliders.com.
