TGI Fridays Launches New "Fast, Fresh" Lunch Menu for Those Short on Time

TGI Fridays looks to address those with a time crunch during lunch hours with the launch of the new "Fridays Fast, Fresh Lunch Pairings" menu.



Available Monday through Friday, from 11 AM to 3 PM, the menu features a pairing of a choice of either mozzarella sticks, house salad, Caesar salad, or soup with a choice from a selection of lunch-portion entrees.

A number of entrees are marked as "quicker options" in case you're in a hurry (Shouldn't they all be quicker options given the menu name though?).

Prices for the menu start at $6.99 (may vary) and entree choices include:

At $6.99:
- New Italian Pretzel Grinder (pictured above)
- 1/2 BLT & Avocado
- Strawberry Fields Salad with Chicken
- Bruschetta Pasta Pomodoro

At $7.99:
- 1/2 California Chicken Club
- Chipotle Yucatan Chicken Salad
- Smoked Sausage Mac & Cheese
- Chicken & Bacon Mac & Cheese

At $8.99:
- Jack Sliders (2)
- Spicy Chicken Sliders (2)
- Cajun Chicken Pasta
- Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken

The casual dining chain has also added two new sandwiches to the lunch menu: the Truffle Stacked Burger and the Mediterranean Mahi Mahi Naan 'Wich.

The Truffle Stacked Burger includes a blend of four cheeses with truffle oil, onion-bacon jam, and Asiago cheese between two fresh burger patties along with truffle aioli, applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce, and tomato.

The Mediterranean Mahi Mahi Naan 'Wich features grilled mahi mahi drizzled with balsamic glaze, cucumber yogurt sauce, balsamic-glazed onions, garlic, basil & Roma tomato bruschetta, and mixed greens with kale on naan bread.
