Applebee's Appetizers & Bar Snacks
Applebee's leans hard into starters, and the appetizer list is one of the best reasons to go. You can order a single plate, split a few across the table, or build your own combo through the Sampler. Prices run from $4 for pot stickers up to $12.50 for a three-item Sampler.

The Sampler: build your own platter
The Sampler is the smart order for a group. Instead of committing to one starter, you pick two or three and they arrive on a shared platter.
| Sampler option | Price |
|---|---|
| Mix & Match 2 | $9.50 |
| Mix & Match 3 | $12.50 |
| Add an extra item (up to 5 total) | $3.00 each |
At $9.50 for two items, the Mix & Match usually undercuts buying those same plates separately — it's the value pick of the section.
What to order
- For sharing: Spinach & Artichoke Dip or the Brew Pub Pretzels & Beer Cheese Dip both feed a table cheaply.
- For a group with mixed tastes: the three-item Sampler.
- For something heartier: Sweet Chile Brisket Sliders or the Salsa Verde Shredded Brisket Nachos eat closer to a light meal.
- With a drink: wings and pretzels pair naturally with anything off the drinks menu.
