Heroes Menu Prices South Africa

Heroes in Musgrave serves a broad casual menu built around burgers, loaded sandwiches, fried chicken, wood-fired pizza, subs, pasta and generous chip parcels. The range is much wider than a standard burger takeaway, so it helps to compare categories before ordering. This guide brings the Heroes menu prices into one clear view and explains what each section offers, how to build an order for different group sizes and where delivery costs can change the final amount.

Popular starting prices include R120 for an Original Burger, R135 for a Cheese Burger, R149 for an Original Steak Sandwich and R135 for a CheekyWich chicken sandwich. A single Chicken Broast piece starts at R45, while the family box is around R379. Wood-fired pizza begins at R60 for garlic focaccia and R84 for a Margherita. These figures reflect the Musgrave delivery menu and should be treated as branch-specific planning prices. Collection, promotions and platform fees may produce a different total.

Heroes menu prices at a glance

The menu is easiest to understand when divided by appetite. Burgers, chicken sandwiches and shawarma wraps work well for one person. Steak sandwiches, loaded parcels and larger burgers suit a bigger appetite. Broast boxes and pizza are simpler to share. Pasta and subs offer an alternative when the group wants something beyond fried chicken and burgers. Because many items are already substantial, check the description before adding sides.

Burgers

The Original Burger and Cheeky Chicken Burger share the R120 starting point, making the first decision a choice between beef and crispy chicken. The Cheese Burger costs R15 more. Several flavoured burgers sit at R149 and use jalapeno, peppadew, mushroom or Mexican-style toppings to create a more complete meal. These are useful when you want stronger flavour without moving into the premium steak range.

The Steak Prego Burger and other steak burgers are priced around R195 because they use sirloin rather than a standard patty. The Boss Burger reaches R230 and combines two beef patties with cheese, polony, shredded steak, sauce and vegetables. It is designed for a very large appetite. Most diners will get better balance from a standard burger and a side, while the Boss makes sense when the oversized burger itself is the main attraction.

Gatsby and steak sandwiches

The Original Steak Sandwich combines steak, house sauce, chips and salad vegetables for R149. Since chips are already layered into the sandwich, an extra side may be unnecessary. Cheese, mushroom, polony and jalapeno additions raise the price through the range. The Fully Loaded version doubles the steak and reaches R239, while the Heroes Extreme adds several rich toppings at R255.

The Masala Steak Gatsby is a large sub roll filled with chips, spicy steak, sauce, onions and peppers. At R299, it is better viewed as a sharing item or an intentionally oversized meal. Before ordering, consider how it will travel and how many people will eat it. A Gatsby divided between two diners can cost less per person than separate loaded sandwiches, but separate items give easier control over sauces and toppings.

Chicken sandwiches and rolls

The Chicken and Mayo Sandwich is the lowest-priced full chicken sandwich at R120. CheekyWich uses crispy chicken pieces with a creamy or hot sauce, while BlazinWich adds cheese. The Original Chicken Sandwich includes chips inside the bread, making it more filling than its name suggests. A grilled fillet and cheese sandwich provides a less crunchy alternative at R149.

Rolls offer a simpler meal. The R75 Chip Roll is the lowest-cost option in this group, and the Hot Dog is R88.50 with chips, grilled onion and house sauces. The Chicken Strip Roll costs R149 and carries enough protein to work as a full lunch. When comparing these items, check whether chips are inside the roll or need to be added separately.

Chicken fillets, strips and winglets

The single fillet and strip meals give a clear choice between grilled and crispy chicken at the same R135 price. The double grilled fillet adds a second piece for R30 more, which is strong value for a hungry diner. Double Up Crispy Strips costs R149 but does not include a side, so it is better for sharing or for someone who already has another item.

Winglets cost around R115 and can be ordered with an original breading or a buffalo-style basting. They work well as a starter for two people or a smaller main meal. If the sauce is hot, pair the wings with coleslaw or a milkshake rather than another spicy item. Ask for sauce separately when texture matters during delivery.

Chicken Broast prices

A single drumstick is R45, but the R75 meal adds a side and small bun for a more complete portion. Two pieces with a side and bun cost R114, the same listed price as three pieces without the extras. That comparison shows why the right choice depends on whether you want more chicken or a balanced plate. Four, six and eight-piece boxes scale up for sharing.

The R379 family box combines eight fried chicken pieces with mash and gravy, coleslaw, medium chips and four buns. It is the simplest complete group option in the Broast section. For four people it works out near R94.75 each before drinks. An eight-piece chicken-only box costs R286.50, so families that already have sides at home can save about R92.50 by choosing chicken alone.

Chip parcels, sides and children's meals

Fresh-cut fries start at R45. Cheese Fries cost R69, while the Polony Parcel is R149 and the Club Parcel is R179. The large Heroes Parcel reaches R279 with chips, cheese, chicken or steak strips, polony, a vienna and a russian. These parcels are rich and designed around sharing, so portion size matters more than the headline price.

Junior choices include Cheeky Bitz and a junior beef or chicken burger at R75. They are easier to manage than the full burgers and loaded sandwiches. Coleslaw and mash with gravy are listed around R46.50 each. Those sides pair especially well with Broast chicken. If ordering for children, confirm sauce heat and whether a drink is included rather than assuming every junior meal is a full combo.

Wood-fired pizza prices

The pizza range starts with a simple garlic focaccia at R60 and a Margherita at R84. Pepperoni and Chicken Pizza cost close to R112, while more detailed chicken pizzas sit between R119 and R128. Steak Supreme is R143. The Avalanche costs R180 and carries steak, cheese, polony, vienna, mash, onions and peppers, making it one of the heaviest options.

Pizza is useful for a group because slices are easy to divide, but the menu does not always state dimensions in a delivery listing. Confirm the size before comparing it with a burger or family chicken box. Two lower-priced pizzas can provide better variety than one heavily loaded pizza. Garlic focaccia can also serve as a shared side with pasta or wings.

Wood-fired subs and pasta

The 28 cm wood-fired subs range from R98 for cheesy garlic to R180 for club versions. A Chicken Sub at R150 and Steak Sub at R165 are substantial alternatives to sandwiches. The difference between a sandwich and a sub is mainly the bread style and preparation, so choose based on fillings rather than expecting one category to be automatically larger.

Pasta begins at R90 for Mac and Cheese. Arrabiata and Mushroom Alfredo are R135, giving a choice between tomato and cream-based sauces. Adding chicken and mushroom to Alfredo raises the price to R165. Pasta travels well when packed carefully, though cream sauce can thicken as it cools. Eat soon after delivery for the best texture.

Middle Eastern wraps and drinks

Falafel Shawarma costs R120, Chicken Shawarma R122 and Beef Shawarma R150. Each is served in flatbread with hummus, tahini and vegetables. The two-rand difference between falafel and chicken makes taste and dietary preference more important than price. Beef is the premium choice at R28 more than chicken.

Standard 300 ml soft drinks are around R30. Classic milkshakes cost R65, while premium milkshakes and nojitos are about R75. Drinks can add a meaningful amount to a group bill. Four standard soft drinks add R120, so a larger shared beverage from elsewhere may be cheaper for a collection order. A milkshake can also function as a dessert rather than just a drink.

Building an order for one person

With about R120 to spend on food, compare the Original Burger, Cheeky Chicken Burger, Chicken and Mayo Sandwich, Winglets or a shawarma. At around R150, the choice expands to flavoured burgers, loaded chicken sandwiches, steak sandwiches, strips with a side and many pizzas. Look at what is already included. An item containing chips may need no extra side.

For a lighter meal, choose a junior burger, Mac and Cheese or a simple sandwich. For a large appetite, the double fillet meal, loaded steak sandwich or premium burger provides more food without moving into a sharing box. Decide on the main item first and only add a drink or side if the meal description shows it is missing.

Ordering for two people

Two separate standard burgers will cost about R240 before drinks. A Margherita plus wings costs roughly R199 and gives more variety. An eight-piece chicken box is likely too much for two unless leftovers are planned, but a four-piece box at R150 with two sides can be a flexible alternative. The Gatsby can also be divided, though its R299 price is close to two loaded meals.

People with different tastes should choose separate mains and share one side. If both want fried chicken, a piece box plus coleslaw or mash is easy to divide. If one wants meat and the other prefers a vegetarian meal, combine a beef burger with falafel shawarma, vegetarian pizza or vegetarian sub. Ask about preparation and cross-contact when strict dietary separation matters.

Ordering for a family or group

The Broast Family Box is the clearest family option because it includes chicken, two cold or hot sides, chips and buns. For a group that wants more variety, combine two pizzas with strips or wings. Large loaded parcels can work as a shared snack, but they are less balanced than chicken with separate sides. Count portions before ordering to avoid relying on item names such as family, club or extreme.

A group order is easier when sauces are placed on the side. Choose one mild main item and one spicy item rather than making everything hot. Add coleslaw or mash for balance. For six or more diners, compare two family boxes with an assortment of pizzas and chicken. The cheaper route depends on appetite, and delivery charges can narrow the difference.

Delivery, collection and price differences

The prices in this guide come from the Heroes Musgrave delivery listing. Delivery menus may be higher than in-store prices and can include service, delivery and small-order fees. Promotions may apply only on a specific platform or at certain times. Confirm the selected branch, item contents and checkout total before paying.

Collection is useful for crisp items such as chips, Broast chicken and pizza because travel time is shorter. Sandwiches, pasta and saucy meals generally tolerate delivery better. If a large order includes both hot and cold food, unpack it promptly and keep coleslaw away from items that need reheating. Report missing items through the ordering channel while the receipt is available.

Halaal, vegetarian and allergy questions

Customers who require Halaal food should confirm the current status directly with the Musgrave restaurant or the branch they plan to use. Certification, suppliers and preparation arrangements can change, and a delivery category is not proof of certification. Ask for clear branch-level information before placing the order.

Vegetarian items include Margherita and Vegetarian Pizza, garlic focaccia, vegetarian sub, arrabiata pasta, mushroom Alfredo, Mac and Cheese and falafel shawarma. Ingredients such as cheese, sauces and bread may still matter to some diets. Anyone with an allergy should ask about nuts, dairy, eggs, gluten and shared preparation surfaces. Online descriptions cannot guarantee the absence of cross-contact.

Ways to get better value

• Read the item description to see whether chips or a side are already included.
• Compare chicken-only boxes with the complete family box.
• Share pizza, wings or a Gatsby when diners want the same flavours.
• Check collection and delivery totals before confirming payment.
• Use junior items for smaller appetites rather than wasting a full meal.
• Choose standard soft drinks only after checking the group total.
• Keep sauces separate when a group has different heat preferences.

How to compare the larger meals

The higher-priced items are built in different ways, so comparing only the total can be misleading. The Boss Burger puts several proteins and toppings into one serving. The Gatsby spreads steak, chips and vegetables across a large roll. A Heroes Parcel is mainly a loaded chip meal, while the Broast Family Box includes chicken and several separate accompaniments. Think about how many people will eat, whether they prefer individual portions and which foods they are likely to leave behind.

For one very hungry diner, a loaded sandwich may be easier to finish than a family box, even when their prices are not far apart. For three or four diners, separate pieces of chicken and sides are easier to divide than one oversized burger or parcel. Pizza sits between these choices because it divides neatly but gives every diner similar toppings. A mixed order of one pizza, chicken strips and a fresh side can suit a group with different appetites without reaching the price of several premium burgers.

Check the role of chips in every comparison. They appear inside some sandwiches and rolls, form the base of parcels and come separately with selected chicken meals. Ordering an extra portion without noticing the included chips can make the meal heavier and more expensive than planned. The same applies to sauces. House sauce, creamy sauce, hot sauce and cheese sauce may already be part of the item, so request changes before the kitchen prepares it.

Keeping a takeaway order in good condition

Food quality depends partly on the trip from the restaurant. Fried chicken, wings and chips lose crispness when steam stays trapped in closed packaging for too long. Collection gives you more control over travel time. If you use delivery, choose a nearby branch, track the driver and unpack the order soon after arrival. Keep cold coleslaw away from containers that need reheating.

Pizza and subs should be kept flat during transport so toppings do not shift. Pasta can be stirred gently when it arrives, especially if an Alfredo sauce has thickened. Steak sandwiches and loaded rolls are easiest to eat immediately. If a large sandwich will be shared, cut it with a clean sharp knife after arrival rather than asking for too many special changes that may affect how it is packed.

Refrigerate leftovers promptly in shallow, covered containers. Remove salad leaves and cold sauces before reheating burgers or sandwiches where practical. Chicken must be heated thoroughly, and food should not be repeatedly cooled and reheated. A large order offers better value only when leftovers are handled safely and actually used. When you know the group will not keep leftovers, choose a smaller box and add one side if needed.

Simple checks before placing the order

Confirm the restaurant location first, particularly when using a search result or delivery marketplace. Then read the full item description, choose the protein and sauce where options are offered, and check whether the price changes with that choice. Review sides, drinks and quantities in the basket. A doubled item or an unnoticed upgrade can change the total significantly.

For group orders, write each person's choice before building the basket. This prevents duplicate meals and makes it easier to label mild, hot and vegetarian items. Keep the receipt or order screen until everyone has checked their food. These small steps are more useful than relying on memory when the order includes similar burgers, sandwiches and chicken boxes.
