Order Texas Roadhouse rolls as a to-go add-on by the half dozen or dozen, priced in most markets around $3 to $8 per dozen with butter. Order at the To-Go counter, by phone, or through the app under sides or bakery.
What you are actually buying
A paid roll order is the same in-house baked yeast roll that arrives free in the dining room, boxed by the half dozen or dozen with tubs of honey cinnamon butter. You are paying for volume and packaging, not a different product.
This trips people up constantly. The rolls are complimentary and refilled at the table when you eat in, so a charge on your takeout receipt looks like a mistake. It is not. Once rolls leave the building in a box, they are inventory, and the kitchen bakes to that order like any other item. The free-refill logic stops at the door.

How to order rolls from Texas Roadhouse
Four routes work: walk up to the To-Go window, call the restaurant directly, add rolls in the Texas Roadhouse app or website order flow, or attach them to a delivery order. Phone is the most reliable for large counts.
In the app or online, rolls sit with sides, extras, or a bakery grouping depending on how your location has its menu built. If you cannot find them there, that is a menu-configuration quirk at that store, not a policy. Call and ask.
- To-Go counter. Fastest for a spontaneous dozen. Ask what they have baked; if a batch just came out, you leave in two minutes.
- Phone. Best for 3+ dozen, holidays, or a specific pickup time. Give them a window and they bake toward it.
- App / online. Convenient, but the roll listing and quantity caps vary by store, and you cannot negotiate butter counts.
- Delivery. Works, though third-party menus sometimes omit rolls entirely or price them above in-store.
One practical note on timing. Restaurants bake rolls on a rolling cycle through service, which means the middle of a dinner rush is when they are most available and mid-afternoon can mean a short wait. If you want them hot, say so when you order and ask for the freshest batch rather than whatever is boxed.
What a dozen rolls costs
There is no national roll price. Individual locations set it, and reported figures cluster in the low single digits for a half dozen and roughly $3 to $8 for a dozen including butter. Confirm the current number with your store before ordering.
| Order type | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Dine-in basket | No charge, refilled on request |
| Half dozen to-go | Roughly half the dozen price at most stores |
| Dozen to-go | Commonly quoted around $3-$8 with butter |
| Multiple dozens | Priced per dozen; rarely discounted for volume |
| Extra butter alone | Sometimes free, sometimes a small charge per cup |
| Delivery apps | Marked up over in-store, plus fees |
Because the spread is that wide, treat any price you read online, including this page, as a ballpark. A ninety-second phone call gets you the real number for your address.
Calories in a to-go order
A plain roll lands roughly in the 200-230 calorie range by commonly published figures, with cinnamon butter counted separately per serving. A boxed dozen is therefore a substantial calorie purchase. Check the chain’s current nutrition information for exact values.
The number that matters for a to-go order is the multiplier. Twelve rolls plus twelve butter portions is not a side dish, it is a meal’s worth of calories sitting on your counter, and rolls are easy to graze. If you are tracking, portion them into the freezer when you get home rather than leaving the box open.
Allergen questions, especially dairy and egg, should go to the restaurant or the official allergen guide rather than any third-party page.
Getting enough cinnamon butter
Butter is portioned to your roll count, and stores vary on whether extra cups are free. Ask for additional butter at the moment you order, not at pickup, since ramekins are prepped with the box.
Most people underestimate here. The table experience is generous with butter because a server keeps bringing it; a sealed to-go box gives you a fixed allotment that runs out around roll eight. If butter is the reason you are ordering rolls at all, request double and accept a small upcharge if there is one.
How many to order, and holding them
Plan on two to three rolls per adult for a meal side, or a dozen per four to six people at a holiday table. Rolls stale quickly at room temperature, so freeze anything you will not eat within a day.
Handling that actually works:
- Same day. Leave them boxed and loosely covered. Warm at low oven heat, wrapped in foil, for a few minutes.
- Next day. Sealed bag on the counter. Refrigeration dries them out faster than the counter does.
- Longer. Freeze in a sealed bag, then reheat from frozen wrapped in foil. Texture holds up better than you would expect.
- Butter. Refrigerate, then let it come back to room temperature before serving or it will tear the roll.
For Thanksgiving or a party, call several days out. Stores handle bulk roll orders regularly around holidays but they need the heads-up, and some cap counts on the busiest days.
Is a roll order worth it?
Yes, if you are feeding a group or genuinely want these specific rolls at home. It is poor value if you are already dining in, where the basket is free, or if any bakery roll would do the job.
Compared to ordering an appetizer to round out a takeout meal, a dozen rolls usually costs less and feeds more people, though it brings nothing but bread. Compared to buying the chain’s rolls at a grocery retailer where those are stocked, restaurant-baked rolls win on freshness and lose on convenience and price per roll. The honest use case is the holiday table and the takeout order that feels incomplete without a basket.
Where this page is uncertain
Roll pricing, minimum and maximum order counts, whether extra butter is charged, and whether rolls appear in your store’s app menu are all set at the location level. We publish ranges rather than a single price because a single price would be wrong somewhere. Calorie figures reflect commonly published values and can change with recipe or portion updates. This is an independent guide with no connection to Texas Roadhouse; for a binding price or an allergen answer, call your restaurant or check the official menu.
