CAVA Menu with Prices and Calories

CAVA runs Mediterranean fast-casual counters where guests build a bowl, a pita or a salad from a base, a protein and a spread of toppings. Chef-curated options like the Spicy Lamb Avocado Bowl and Steak Harissa Bowl sit alongside the build-your-own line. Six sections carry every price and calorie count on the CAVA menu.

Bowls and Pitas anchor the board, priced by protein tier from $11.55 up to $16.55. Kids Meal, Drinks, Sides and Desserts round out the rest of the lineup. Every row below lists one CAVA item, its calorie count and its price together.

At a glance

CAVA Menu Prices and Calories

The CAVA menu opens with Bowls and Pitas, its two largest sections and the anchor of the build-your-own format. Six proteins carry their own price tier on the CAVA menu. Chicken, falafel and the build-your-own base start that ladder at $11.55, climbing to $16.55 for the Spicy Lamb Avocado Bowl.

Kids Meal, Drinks, Sides and Desserts fill out the rest of the board at flatter, lower prices. Every section below lists calories next to price, matching CAVA’s own nutrition guide item for item.

Bowls and Pitas share the same protein-tier pricing, so a Chicken Shawarma Pita costs the same $13.60 as the Garlicky Chicken Shawarma Bowl. Drinks, Sides and Desserts skip that tiering and carry one flat price regardless of the item chosen. Kids Meal keeps to a single build at $7.15, priced apart from the tiered adult sections. Locations and What to Expect sections follow the six item groups near the bottom of the page, closing out with company facts.

CAVA Bowls

Bowls make up the largest section on the CAVA menu, running eleven builds across a tiered lineup. Spicy Lamb Avocado Bowl prices highest of the eleven at $16.55, carrying 880 calories, the most of any bowl.

Six entries, including Chicken + Rice and the Falafel Crunch Bowl, share the lowest price at $11.55 apiece. Falafel Crunch Bowl runs richest of the six. BYO Salad Bowl runs lightest. Garlicky Chicken Shawarma Bowl splits the difference at $13.60.

CAVA Pitas

Pitas wrap the same fillings the Bowls section serves in a bowl, folded into warm flatbread. Protein choice sets the tier here exactly as it does across the Bowls. Spicy Chicken Avocado Pita prices highest of the five at $15.75, though Steak Feta Pita carries more calories at 740.

Greek Chicken Pita and the build-your-own option both open the section at $11.55, the lowest price on the list. BYO Pita runs lightest of the five at 590 calories. Steak Feta Pita also anchors a few off-menu remixes regulars order by name.

CAVA Kids Meal

Kids Meal keeps to one listed build on the CAVA menu, a single Kids Pita sized for smaller appetites. It runs $7.15 and carries 420 calories, sized down from the adult pita portions above. CAVA builds it from a smaller pita, not a separate recipe. Parents can expect the same fresh toppings as the adult line, just less of it.

CAVA Drinks

Drinks run fourteen deep on the CAVA menu, split across three flat tiers rather than a size ladder. Seven fountain flavors sit at the top tier, $3.45 apiece, including Classic Lemonade and Fountain Soda.

Unsweet Tea, Still Water and Sparkling Water all carry zero calories among that group. Still Water and Sparkling Water both price at $2.75. Kids Apple Juice, Kids Milk and Kids Chocolate Milk sit lowest of the fourteen at $2.45 each.

CAVA Sides

Sides span nine dips and extras that round out a CAVA order. Side Pita opens the section lowest at $2.25, and Crazy Feta tops it at $4.15. Tzatziki and Hummus both price at $3.45.

Harissa carries the fewest calories of the nine at 70, despite pricing in the middle of the range. Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips run heaviest of the group at 310 calories.

CAVA Desserts

Desserts close the CAVA menu with just three options. All three price at $3.25 or less. Salted Chocolate Oat Cookie prices highest of the three at $3.25 and carries the most calories at 290.

Greyston Blondie and Greyston Brownie both price at $2.65, tied at the bottom of the dessert list. Brownie edges out the Blondie by 20 calories despite the matching price.

CAVA Locations

CAVA trades from 476 restaurants across 29 states plus the District of Columbia. Brett Schulman, a co-founder, still runs the chain as its Chief Executive Officer. No parent company owns CAVA.

What to Expect Inside a CAVA

Guests move down a service line at CAVA, choosing a base, a protein, dips and unlimited toppings before a dressing finishes the order. Crazy Feta and hummus, both made in-house, also sell as retail tubs in grocery stores including Whole Foods Market.

The chain converted its last Zoes Kitchen locations to the CAVA format back in 2023, closing out a 2018 acquisition. Guests managing more than one allergy at once can cross-check every topping, dip and dressing in advance. What each item declares sits on its own page.
