The whole menu at a glance

Each dot is one item. The UK government’s 400-600-600 guidance suggests about 600 kcal for lunch or dinner, so anything past the line is more than a whole meal on its own.

600 kcal or lessOver 600 kcal

The 395 items in this section range from 0 kcal for the Classic Shaken Iced Black Tea (Grande) up to 787 kcal for the Mini Caramel Waffles. The highest free sugar is the Mini Caramel Waffles at 51.0g, which is 170% of an adult's daily limit of 30g.

Boone separates free sugars from the sugars that occur naturally in milk and whole fruit, which NHS daily limits do not count, and measures every figure against the guideline for a specific age and sex rather than an adult average. Set the size and the milk in the calculator to see how any combination changes.

Starbucks UK Nutrition & Allergen Guide, Autumn 2026

Corrections. Figures that cannot be right are corrected, and free sugar is worked out from the ingredients where they are published.

Guidelines. UK government and NHS limits by age and sex. Healthiest and unhealthiest rankings use the UK nutrient profiling model.

Allergens. Always check with the restaurant if you have an allergy.

Common questions

Where does Boone's Starbucks nutrition information come from?+

Boone uses the nutrition and allergen information Starbucks publishes for its UK menu, then calculates free sugar and how much of the daily guidelines each item uses for your age and sex.

How often is the Starbucks UK nutrition information updated?+

Boone updates the Starbucks pages when Starbucks changes its published UK nutrition information, including new items, recipe changes and items leaving the menu.

Is Starbucks UK nutrition information the same as in other countries?+

No. Recipes, ingredients and portion sizes vary by country, so Starbucks figures from the US or elsewhere do not apply here. Boone only uses Starbucks' UK nutrition information.

What nutrition information is shown for each Starbucks item?+

Each Starbucks item shows its calories, sugar, free sugar, saturated fat, salt and protein, along with the allergens Starbucks declares. Every figure is also shown as a share of the daily guideline for your age and sex.

How does the Starbucks nutrition calculator work?+

Open any Starbucks item and set an age and sex. The calculator shows its calories, sugar, salt, saturated fat and protein as a share of that person's daily guidelines, and you can adjust the portion size.

Can I calculate the calories and nutrition for a full Starbucks meal?+

Yes. Start with any Starbucks item, then add sides and drinks to build the meal. The calculator totals the calories and nutrition and shows how the whole meal fits the daily guidelines for your age and sex.

Can I add sides, drinks and sauces to the Starbucks calculator?+

Yes. Sides, drinks, and sauces or dips where Starbucks lists them, can all be added to a meal. Each addition updates the meal's calories, sugar, salt and saturated fat.

How are the daily guidelines worked out for my age and sex?+

Boone uses UK government and NHS guidelines, which differ by age and sex. Saturated fat is limited to 20g a day for women and 30g for men, and free sugar to 30g for adults but 19g for children aged 4 to 6. Choosing an age and sex recalculates every figure against the right limits.

What are the daily guidelines for calories, fat, sugar and salt?+

For adults, the reference intake is 2,000 kcal and 70g of fat a day, with no more than 20g of saturated fat for women or 30g for men, 30g of free sugar and 6g of salt. Children have lower limits for free sugar and salt.

Why does the calculator show different figures for children?+

Children have lower limits for free sugar and salt and need less energy, so the same item uses a bigger share of their day. A child aged 4 to 6 has a limit of 19g of free sugar and 3g of salt, compared with 30g and 6g for an adult.

Are Starbucks calories the same for every portion size?+

No. Calories and nutrients change with portion size, so where Starbucks sells an item in more than one size, each size is listed separately. You can also adjust the portion in the calculator.

Do Starbucks sauces and dips affect the nutrition of a meal?+

Yes. Sauces and dips can add a noticeable amount of sugar, salt and calories, especially if you have more than one. Where Starbucks publishes nutrition for them, you can add them to your meal in the calculator.

Does Starbucks nutrition information include drinks?+

Yes. Every Starbucks drink is listed by size and milk with its calories, sugar, salt and saturated fat. Size, milk choice and syrups all change the figures, and drinks can be added to any meal in the calculator.

Why is the sugar figure different from Starbucks' own nutrition information?+

Starbucks publishes total sugar, which includes the sugar naturally found in milk and whole fruit. NHS limits apply only to free sugars, so Boone separates the two and measures free sugar against your daily limit. That is why an item can use less of your limit than its total sugar suggests.

What is the difference between fat and saturated fat?+

Fat is the total of all the fats in an item. Saturated fat is one type within that total and has its own daily limit, 20g for women and 30g for men, because eating too much can raise cholesterol.

Can Starbucks fit into a healthy diet?+

Yes, as part of a balanced diet. Checking a Starbucks meal's calories, saturated fat, sugar and salt against your daily guidelines shows how much room is left for the rest of the day.

How can I make a Starbucks order healthier?+

Choose a smaller size, cut back on syrups, sauces and whipped cream, and pick a milk that suits your goals. The calculator shows how each change affects calories and sugar before you order.

Is Starbucks nutrition information suitable for tracking calories?+

Yes. Each Starbucks item gives calories, sugar, saturated fat, salt and protein that you can log in any tracker. In the Boone app you can also snap a photo of your meal to log it.

Does the Starbucks nutrition information cover vegetarian and vegan items?+

Yes. Vegetarian and vegan items on the Starbucks UK menu are included with the same calorie and nutrition detail as everything else.

Does the Starbucks nutrition information include allergens?+

Yes. Each Starbucks item page lists the allergens Starbucks declares, including where cross-contamination cannot be ruled out. If you have a severe allergy, always check with the restaurant before ordering.
