Who says you can’t have breakfast-flavored food for dessert or even a new favorite sandwich meal?

A&W Restaurants lets you have a guilt-free dessert with a nod to childhood nostalgia with their newest dessert item. A&W is America’s oldest franchise restaurant chain, so it’s only fitting that they are launching food items that are inspired by our childhood favorites.

A&W has launched a new shake inspired by a childhood favorite, the Cap’n Crunch Cereal Shake. This sweet treat features a mix of creamy vanilla soft serve and bits of real Cap’n Crunch cereal; all served in A&W’s classic frosty glass mug. It aims to evoke fond memories of Saturday morning cartoons and bowls of colorful breakfast cereal we all enjoyed back in the day.

⁤Liz Bazner, the Vice President of Marketing & Innovation at A&W, expressed the restaurant’s continuous search for ways to bring joyful dining experiences to customers. ⁤⁤Plus, they also shared that the new Cap’n Crunch Cereal shake is a perfect display of A&W’s innovative menu, bringing a smile to their customers’ faces. ⁤

A&W Restaurants’ new Cap’n Crunch Cereal Shake will be made available for a limited time at participating A&W locations. So if you’re one of the restaurant’s or cereal’s fans, or just a customer wanting to try new shake flavors, then you should immediately check with your local A&W for availability. Plus, guests should note that the prices of this shake may vary per location.

A Look Into A&W’s Latest Menu Releases

A&W Restaurant has been known as America’s oldest franchise restaurant chain. For decades, they have thrived as a pioneer of menu innovation and combining classic flavors with a timeless dining experience.

Now, let’s take a step back and take a look at what A&W has brought to the table to delight us this year. Get your straws and forks ready, and let’s dig in!

Strawberry Watermelon Cream Freeze

A&W helped us cool down this summer season with their limited-edition Strawberry Watermelon Cream Freeze. This seasonal item blends creamy vanilla soft-serve with the flavors of real strawberries and watermelon. Plus, it adds a twist in the form of Starry lemon-lime soda for that citrusy and refreshing touch. With summer coming to a close, we still hope that the Strawberry Watermelon Cream Freeze will stay as a permanent addition to A&W’s menu.

From The Club

I love how A&W constantly brings back our childhood favorites with their menu releases. Don’t get me wrong, every release from A&W is a known hit, but combining nostalgia in some of their releases adds another touch of magic. We all love a delicious menu item, but it becomes more enjoyable when it reminds us of a certain part of our childhood and some good ol’ days.
