Celebrate 'Star Wars' Day With These Food Items and Promotions
Star Wars Day has become such a prevalent part of pop culture every May 4th that even restaurants have gotten in on the fun in recent years. From items that are specifically tailored to characters and themes in the franchise, to promotions for upcoming Star Wars movies, these goodies are sure to make you want to unleash the force on your family and friends!
Burger King
Burger King is not just giving fans a single item for this special occasion, but an entire Star Wars menu to help promote The Mandalorian & Grogu starring Pedro Pascal. The film comes out May 22, and there are four items the fast food giant is adding to the menu for a limited time starting today.
A Bounty BBQ Whopper, Grogu's Garlic Chicken Fries, Imperial Cheddar Ranch Tots, and Grogu's Blue Cookie Shake are the four new menu items that fans can celebrate the galaxy far, far away with. There are also collectable cups that customers receive when they purchase the whole meal.
This promotion is similar to the SpongeBob SquarePants meal they had in 2025 to promote The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants.
Mattenga's Pizzaria
How about giving a small business some love? Mattenga's Pizzaria in the San Antonio area is selling $4 pizza rolls on May 4th that are shaped like lightsabers. It's important to support local chain restaurants, so if you're able to stop by, it should be a lot of fun to celebrate Star Wars at the pizza parlor.
Honorable Mention: Nilla Wafers
Nilla Wafers aren't technically fast food, but they are one of the best junk-food cookies in the grocery store aisle. The cookie can now be bought with a Star Wars variant: Grogu Nilla Nummies!
The cookies are colored like our favorite little friend from The Mandalorian, but they taste exactly like they always have, with the same great vanilla taste. These are out on store shelves right now.
Which of these promotions are you most excited to try? How will you be celebrating Star Wars this year on May 4th? Make sure you embrace your inner nerd and have fun with it!
