See a different calorie count elsewhere? Some third-party menu sites show 380 or 470 calories for a "Jr Double Cheeseburger" on deal menus. We could not match either number to a Sonic document. Sonic's Fall 2026 and November 2026 nutrition guides both print 390.

How we got these: for each state we read the in-app pickup price at up to 12 restaurants (the same restaurants every time) and took the middle value. The US figure weights each state by how many restaurants it has. Only 38 states had at least three listings of this item.
Source: Drive Thru Index . Delivery apps and some drive-ins charge more than these pickup prices, and tax is extra.
At about $3.69 it is one of the lowest-priced burgers we measured, and it comes to 5.7 g of protein per dollar. That is our arithmetic on the typical price, not a Sonic figure.
Sonic's parent company said the Jr. Double Cheeseburger was $2.50 from June 22, 2026 to July 12, 2026 at participating locations, in the Sonic app. That was a limited-time offer, so do not expect $2.50 now.
Inspire Brands announcementWe read $1.99 for the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger at 424 of 424 sampled restaurants, the same price in every one. It has 400 calories and 17 g of protein against 390 and 21 g for the Jr. Double. Sonic gives no patty count for it.
Typical prices run from $3.29 in Utah to $5.19 in Connecticut. Tax is extra and delivery apps add fees. Check the Sonic app or your drive-in for today's price.
Sonic Happy Hour covers drinks, not burgers.
Sonic sets no national price and runs offers by location and through its app, so any deal can differ by drive-in. We list only what we could confirm.
Two beef patties, one slice of American cheese, pickles, ketchup and mustard on a toasted bun, according to Sonic's own menu page. Here is what Sonic states and what it leaves out.
Our own drawing from Sonic's item text. A schematic, not to scale; it shows only what Sonic names.
| Part | What Sonic says | What it leaves out |
|---|---|---|
| Patties | Two juicy, 100% pure beef patties, seasoned. | Sonic does not publish a patty weight or say how they are cooked. |
| Cheese | A slice of melty American cheese. | An older third-party copy of Sonic's menu text and some reviewers say two slices. Sonic's current page says one. Ask your drive-in; we cannot confirm. |
| Toppings | Pickles, ketchup and mustard. | Sonic's text does not name lettuce, tomato, onions or mayo. |
| Bun | A golden, toasted bun. | Sonic's Allergen Guide lists a separate Jr Burger Bun, so it is not the regular bun. Buns are bought from local bakeries and can vary by drive-in. |
Anonymous Sonic employees have written on Reddit that Jr. patties are about 2 oz each against 4.25 oz for the regular patty. Sonic has not confirmed any patty weight, so we do not treat it as fact.

This is simple subtraction of Sonic's printed numbers, not a Sonic statement. Sonic does not say these burgers differ only by the added cheese or patty, so the Jr. Bacon (400 cal) and others cannot be broken down the same way.

Sonic's guide has no separate ingredient statement for the Jr Burger Bun, ketchup or mustard as used on this burger, so we do not print one. Bun oil used when toasting buns contains soy.

Nutrition is from Sonic's Fall and November 2026 guides. Prices are weighted medians from the same 425-restaurant sample for every burger, so the comparison is like for like. "Cal / $" and "Protein g / $" are our arithmetic and say nothing about taste or size. "n/a" means no price was measured; the Jr. Cheeseburger is sold only in a Wacky Pack.

Also worth knowing: the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger is marked for egg and the Jr. Double is not. The Jr. Burger in a Wacky Pack has no milk marked; the Jr. Cheeseburger does. The earlier Fall 2026 Allergen Guide listed these burgers only by their parts, so the November guide is the one to check. Tell your carhop about any allergy when you order.
Filter the whole Sonic menu by allergenCalories, price, size, toppings, allergens and how we got the numbers.
The Sonic Jr. Double Cheeseburger has 390 calories, with 23 g fat (8 g saturated), 25 g carbs, 21 g protein and 870 mg sodium. The numbers are the same in Sonic's Fall 2026 and November 2026 nutrition guides and cover the burger alone, with no side or drink.
It typically costs about $3.69, with a range of $2.50 to $5.99. Sonic publishes no menu prices and each drive-in sets its own, so this is the middle value of in-app pickup prices read from 424 of 425 sampled restaurants in 38 states on Drive Thru Index (checked November 5, 2026). The typical price runs from $3.29 in Utah to $5.19 in Connecticut. Tax is extra and delivery apps usually charge more.
Sonic describes it as two juicy, 100% pure beef patties, seasoned and layered with a slice of melty American cheese, pickles, ketchup and mustard on a golden, toasted bun. Sonic's text does not name lettuce, tomato, onions or mayo.
It has two patties. Sonic does not publish a patty weight, bun size or cooking method. Its Allergen Guide lists a separate Jr Burger Patty and Jr Burger Bun, so those parts are listed apart from the regular burger's patty and bun. By calories it is 44% lighter than the SONIC Cheeseburger (390 against 700). Anonymous employee posts on Reddit describe Jr. patties of about 2 oz each, but that is not confirmed by Sonic.
21 g of protein. At the typical price of about $3.69 that works out to 5.7 g of protein per dollar and 106 calories per dollar. That is our arithmetic on the measured price, not a Sonic figure.
No. Sonic's parent company announced the Jr. Double Cheeseburger at $2.50 on the America $2.50 Menu from June 22, 2026 to July 12, 2026 at participating locations, in the Sonic app. That limited-time offer has ended. Measured pickup prices now typically sit at about $3.69. Deals vary by drive-in, so check the Sonic app.
The Jr. Double has 390 calories and 21 g protein. The Jr. Cheeseburger in a Wacky Pack kids meal has 290 calories and 13 g, and the plain Jr. Burger 250 calories and 11 g. The SONIC Cheeseburger, as Sonic lists it with ketchup and mayo, has 700 calories and 30 g. The SuperSONIC Double has 1040. The Jr. burgers have fewer calories than the standard ones, and the two kids burgers are sold only inside a Wacky Pack.
Sonic's guides list a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger with 400 calories, 17 g protein and 1,440 mg sodium. We found no Sonic description for it, so its patty count is not stated, and we cannot say it equals a Jr. Double with bacon added. Sonic's Make It Yours bacon adds 60 calories and American cheese adds 70, but Sonic does not say which burgers accept which extras. Ask when you order.
Sonic's November 2026 Allergen Guide marks it as containing milk, soy, wheat, gluten and sesame. Sesame comes from the bun, and Sonic notes that bakery buns can vary by drive-in. Bun oil used when toasting buns contains soy. Peanut, tree nut, fish and shellfish are not marked, but Sonic warns of cross-contact from shared grills and cannot guarantee any item is free of any allergen.
No. It contains wheat and gluten from the bun, milk from the cheese and two beef patties. Sonic says no item on its menu is certified gluten-free, vegetarian or vegan. Sonic does not publish a bun-free or cheese-free version with its own nutrition, so we cannot give numbers for one.
With a small side, one Jr. Double comes to 640 calories with small Tots (250), 650 with small Groovy Fries (260) or 830 with small Onion Rings (440). Drinks are not included; check the one you pick in Sonic's guide. The meal builder on this page adds up any order.
We could not match either number to a Sonic document. Sonic's Fall 2026 and November 2026 nutrition guides both print 390 for the Jr. Double Cheeseburger. Third-party sites may be using older menus or a different build; we cannot tell which. Use Sonic's guide when they differ.
Nutrition and allergens come from Sonic's own November 2026 guides, and we name the page for each. Prices are not Sonic's: they are measured pickup prices from Drive Thru Index, shown as "about" because they come from a sample of restaurants. We are an independent guide and are not affiliated with Sonic Drive-In or Inspire Brands. Last reviewed November 5, 2026.
We are an independent guide, not Sonic. Here is what each number is based on and what we could not confirm.
Sonic publishes no menu prices and the Jr. items have no item page on Drive Thru Index. We read the pickup price on 425 restaurant pages (up to 12 per state, 38 states, the same restaurants every run). The Jr. Double was listed at 424 of them. The US figure is the median weighted by how many Sonic restaurants each state has; a state figure is the plain median of the restaurants we sampled there. Prices differ by drive-in, change often, and are higher on delivery apps.
The burger drawings on this page are our own, made from Sonic's item text, and show only the toppings Sonic names. They are schematics, not photos, and not to scale. We drew nothing for the other Jr. items because Sonic does not describe them.
These appear in our older data but in neither November 2026 guide, so we show no numbers for them: Jr. Chicken Sandwich; Honey Chipotle Jr. Chicken Sandwich; Fritos® Chili Cheese Jr. Wrap.
