The Starbird Summer of Wraps menu has been launched by the brand with the summer season in mind to help diners enjoy a lighter fare option on their next visit.
The menu puts the brand's Positively Delicious Chicken in the spotlight alongside its signature salads to wrap both together into every serving. The menu features the Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap, Green Goddess Cobb Wrap, Elote Chop Wrap, Chicken Chop Wrap and the Thai Chicken Wrap. Each wrap is priced at $13.77 each and will be on offer for the summertime.
Chief Executive Officer Greg Levin spoke on the Starbird Summer of Wraps menu saying, "Summer is the perfect moment to introduce something fresh and new for our guests. We’re taking everything people already love about our salads and transforming them into something even more accessible, flavorful and built for life on the move. It’s innovation rooted in quality, convenience and bold taste.”

Key Themes Behind This Trend
- Salad-to-wrap Formats
- Transforming signature salads into handheld wraps creates room for fast-casual brands to extend existing menu equity into more portable, high-frequency meal occasions.
- Seasonal Portable Menus
- Limited-time summer wrap offerings highlight how restaurants can use seasonal lifestyle needs to test lighter, convenience-led products without overhauling core operations.
- Premium Chicken Convenience
- Quality-focused chicken paired with bold salad ingredients reflects a growing space for elevated grab-and-go meals that compete with both fast food and health-oriented dining.
Where This Applies
- Fast-casual Dining
- Fast-casual operators gain new differentiation potential by converting recognizable salads into mobile-friendly formats that preserve flavor complexity while improving convenience.
- Prepared Foods
- Retail and foodservice prepared-meal programs can draw from salad-packed wraps to bridge fresh, health-conscious positioning with easy lunch and travel consumption.
- Restaurant Franchising
- Franchise systems benefit from menu innovations built around existing ingredients, as wrap extensions can support operational consistency while introducing marketable novelty.
