Texas Roadhouse Drink Menu

Big-city and coastal stores run 10-15% above these numbers; small-town Texas and Midwest locations often match them exactly. Alcohol prices swing more than food prices because state liquor taxes differ so much.

Margaritas and the Kenny’s Cooler

Margaritas are the reason to drink at Texas Roadhouse: the $5.99 house margarita is one of the cheapest sit-down-restaurant margaritas in the country, and the $9.99 Legendary version upgrades the tequila and the pour size. Between those two sit mid-tier options like strawberry, mango, and jumbo sizes at most stores.

The Kenny’s Cooler at $7.99 is the house signature, a frozen electric-blue mix built around coconut and citrus flavors with Blue Curacao, named for Kenny Chesney’s tequila partnership. It drinks sweet and easy, closer to a beach slush than a cocktail. If you want to actually taste tequila, order a margarita on the rocks instead; frozen drinks at any chain restaurant bury the spirit under ice and syrup.

One honest note: pours are made to a corporate spec, so these are not strong drinks. That’s also why they’re cheap. Treat the house margarita as a $6 accessory to a steak, not the main event.

Beer and non-alcoholic options

Beer starts at $4.49 for domestic bottles and drafts (Bud Light, Miller Lite, Coors Light), with craft, import, and 22 oz tall pours priced higher and varying heavily by region. Most stores pour local taps too, so the draft list in Ohio won’t match the one in Arizona.

On the non-alcoholic side you get Coca-Cola fountain products, sweet and unsweet iced tea, lemonade, coffee, and milk. The flavored lemonades and teas (strawberry, raspberry, peach) usually cost 50 cents to a dollar over the plain versions. There’s no milkshake program and no fancy mocktail list, though bartenders will make a virgin version of the Kenny’s Cooler or a frozen margarita if you ask.

Calories and nutrition

Drink calories at Texas Roadhouse range from zero (unsweet tea, diet soda, water) to several hundred for frozen cocktails, and the chain prints exact counts in its official nutrition guide rather than on the table menu. As rough working numbers: a fountain soda runs around 150-200 calories per glass before refills, sweet tea similar, lemonade a bit more, and frozen margaritas or the Kenny’s Cooler typically land in the 250-500 calorie range depending on size and syrup.

If calories matter to you, the free-refill trap is the real issue: three glasses of sweet tea is quietly 450+ calories before your bread hits the table. Unsweet tea with lemon costs the same $2.99 and rounds to zero. For exact figures, use the nutrition information on the official Texas Roadhouse site or ask for the allergen/nutrition sheet in store; we don’t publish exact drink calorie counts here because they change with recipe and cup-size updates.

How to order drinks well

The best-value order is a $2.99 refillable drink with your meal and, if you’re drinking, one $5.99 house margarita during happy hour, which is the cheapest legal buzz in casual dining. A few moves worth knowing:

• Hit happy hour. Monday-Friday, 3-5 p.m. at participating stores. It overlaps with Early Dine food pricing at many locations, so a full discounted meal and drink is possible before 5 p.m.
• Rocks over frozen. Same price, noticeably more tequila flavor, no brain freeze.
• Ask about local drafts. They’re often the same price as national crafts and fresher.
• Skip drinks on takeout. Alcohol to-go rules vary by state, fountain drinks travel badly, and dropping the drink is the easiest $3-$8 to cut from a to-go order.
• Kids’ meals include a drink. Don’t pay separately for a child’s soda; it’s bundled into the kids’ menu price.

Remember the food context: every entree already comes with two free sides and unlimited fresh-baked rolls, so the drink is the only real add-on cost in a standard order.

Are Texas Roadhouse drinks worth it?

Non-alcoholic drinks are fairly priced and margaritas are genuinely cheap for table service; beer is merely average value. A $5.99 house margarita undercuts Chili’s and Applebee’s standard margarita pricing most of the year, though those chains run deeper monthly drink promotions ($5 margarita-of-the-month deals) that occasionally beat it.

Compared against the rest of the Texas Roadhouse menu, drinks are where the check inflates. Two Legendary margaritas cost more than a 6 oz sirloin. If you’re optimizing dollars, the play is water or one $2.99 refillable drink and putting the savings toward a bigger cut of steak; see the Early Dine window if you want the food discounted too.

Is there a Texas Roadhouse drink menu PDF?

Texas Roadhouse doesn’t publish a standalone drink menu PDF; drinks appear inside each location’s online menu, and alcohol listings only show at stores licensed to serve. Searches for a “texas roadhouse drink menu pdf” mostly surface third-party scans that are years out of date, with pre-2023 prices. Your two reliable options are the location-specific menu on the official site (enter your store first) or this page, which we re-check against location menus. If a PDF price and a live menu price disagree, trust the live menu.

What we can’t verify from here

This is an independent guide, not an official Texas Roadhouse site, and drink pricing is the least uniform part of the whole menu. Specific things that vary by store: whether happy hour is offered at all, exact beer taps and prices, jumbo margarita sizing, lemonade refill policy, and whether alcohol is served to-go. State liquor law overrides corporate policy everywhere it applies. Prices above were verified in July 2026 against location menus and can drift 10-15% by region; confirm your store’s numbers on the official site’s location menu or by calling before you go.
