Protein at Applebee's
Every chain menu in America is required to show you calories. Not one is required to print protein on the menu. So here it is — 12 Applebee's items, using the figures Applebee's publishes.
Source: nutrition data from Applebee's, published via Nutritionix — the operator's designated nutrition portal, rather than a document Applebee's hosts itself — read 22 October 2026.
Ranked by protein
This operator publishes protein but not serving weights, so protein per 100 g — the figure that tells you how dense a plate is — cannot be worked out from their numbers. These are ranked by total protein, and nothing here is estimated to fill the gap.
