For more than 20 years, our partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital has been about more than tradition, it’s about making a difference together. 💛

As Bob Johnston, Chairman of the Board, shared, hosting our team members at St. Jude is a highlight of every year - an opportunity to see firsthand the impact of what they and our guests support.

And that impact adds up: Thanks to last year’s Donate & Dine campaign, we were able to donate $1,278,308 to St. Jude. Guests donate $20 and receive $30 toward a future visit, helping keep generosity in motion.

The Melting Pot is proud of our partnership with St. Jude and grateful to our franchisees, team members, and guests for making a difference - together.

Our Fall Menu is here!

Celebrate the season with a delicious 3-course fondue experience crafted with cozy, craveable flavors:

🫕 Cranberry Pecan Cheese Fondue
Dive into a warm, creamy blend of Butterkäse and Fontina cheeses infused with crisp apple c***r, then topped with smoky cherrywood ham, tart dried cranberries, buttery candied pecans, and fresh scallions. It’s the perfect balance of savory, sweet, and smoky in every dip.

🥗 Apple Almond Salad
Fresh spring greens are tossed with apple slices, crunchy honey-roasted almonds, creamy Gorgonzola crumbles, and a deliciously tangy apple mustard vinaigrette for a light and refreshing bite.

🍫 Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Fondue
Indulge in silky-smooth white chocolate fondue layered with spiced pumpkin purée, drizzled with pumpkin-spiced caramel, and finished with an autumn graham cracker crunch and fluffy whipped topping.

🍸 Fall Harvest Cocktail
A bright and refreshing blend of Stoneleigh Sauvignon Blanc, apple c***r, Barrow’s Intense Ginger Liqueur, and elderflower liqueur. Crisp, lightly spiced, and bursting with seasonal flavor.

🍷 Stoneleigh Sauvignon Blanc
From New Zealand’s celebrated w**e region, this vibrant Sauvignon Blanc leads with notes of grapefruit, green apple, and passion fruit, balanced by a crisp, clean finish that shines alongside the savory and fresh flavors of fall.

Want even more? Upgrade to a 4-course experience by adding any of our core entrées for an additional charge.

Come savor the flavors of fall!
