Tater tots are one of those things that just take you back to your childhood. The crispy, golden bites bring back memories of school lunches, family dinners, and carefree days. Many enjoy it with ketchup, cheese, or even just on their own. Smashburger is a fast food chain that understands this strong connection between Tater tots and people’s childhoods, which is why the brand recently rolled out an awesome $1 deal to satisfy customers’ cravings for nostalgia.
Smashburger recently turned Thursdays into “Tot Thursdays” wherein customers can get tots for just $1 with every purchase of an entrée every Thursday, until July 11. This promotion is for in-store purchases only where fans can pick between Smash Tots or Regular Tots. It’s the perfect midweek offer to enjoy with family and friends, or even by yourself.
So, whether you’re craving a juicy burger, a crispy chicken sandwich, or a fresh salad, make sure to pair it with a heaping side of Smashburger’s tots for the ultimate Thursday treat.

Smashburger Classics to Try with Tots
Smashburger offers a variety of sides customers can pick from to accompany the brand’s signature burgers and other sandwiches. But for Tot Thursdays, these are the ones we think will pair well with either the Smash Tots or the Regular Tots:
The Classic Smashburger: You can never go wrong with a classic. Especially Smashburger’s juicy beef patty with American cheese, tomato, lettuce, onion, pickles, ketchup, and Smash sauce on a toasty bun. This and a side of tots would be an unbeatable pairing.
The BBQ Bacon Cheddar Burger: Smashburger’s Beef patty topped with applewood smoked bacon, aged cheddar cheese, onion rings, and BBQ sauce on a toasted bun. We’re imagining that the aged cheddar cheese in this burger would go well with tater tots. You could even try placing the tots in the burger just before you take your first bite.
The Avocado Bacon Club Grilled Chicken Sandwich: While you can definitely choose the crispy chicken sandwich to go with your tots, we think tots would pair exceptionally well with the grilled chicken breast club that features smashed avocado, bacon, tomato, lettuce, ranch dressing, and mayo on a toasted multi-grain bun.
Regardless of which one you choose, these options provide harmonious flavors that will surely complement the savory taste of Smashburger’s seasoned Smash Tots or even the brand’s plain Regular Tots. To explore more of Smashburger’s menu and current offers, visit their official website.
