Jollibee Jolly Flavor Fries have been introduced by the QSR brand for its US and Canadian locations as a series of side dishes that respond to increasing calls from customers for flavored options. The fries are inspired by classic potato chip flavors and are made-to-order to prioritize a freshness-focused ethos. The fries come in two flavors including Cheesy Cheddar and Sour Cream & Onion, which each come served in a mini bucket-style packaging to accommodate easy snacking when walking or even in the car.
Jollibee Jolly Flavor Fries are priced at $4.49 per order and can also be enjoyed in place of the brand's existing side dishes as an upgrade for combo meals. The snacking-friendly fries are a limited time offering available through October 13, 2026.
