Drakes Menu with Prices 2026
Drakes menu in 2026 covers a lot of ground: shareable starters like Buffalo Chicken Dip, Sriracha Wings and Trashed Wings, fresh salads and scratch-made chili, smashed burgers, USDA Choice steaks, sandwiches, and a full Aqua Sushi menu with specialty rolls, bowls, nigiri and sashimi. Most entrées come with your choice of side, and you can swap a grilled chicken breast onto any full-sized burger for $2 more.
We checked every price below against the official Drake’s menu in October 2026. Prices are taken from a standard Drake’s location (Hamburg, Lexington KY) and can be a little higher or lower at your local restaurant, so treat them as a close guide. Drake’s is also testing a refreshed menu at its Brannon Crossing location in Nicholasville, KY, with new items like Bang Bang Shrimp, a Wagyu Double Stack and Steak Frites.
