White Plains, NY - January 26, 2026 - A new report released by ClubGrub, a mobile ordering technology for golf & country clubs, highlights a significant evolution in on-course dining preferences from the 2025 season.

The 2025 Golf Mobile Order Trends report reveals that only 3.91% of orders placed on the ClubGrub mobile app included traditional hot dogs; a 14.9% decrease from the previous year.

Key findings from the 2025 report include:

* Trending Menu Items: Golfers are increasingly ordering Flatbreads, Sliders, Chicken Tenders, Surfside Iced Teas, and Margaritas / Tequila-based cocktails.
* Rising Stars: Other popular items gaining traction include Shrimp/Fish Tacos, Fried Chicken Sandwiches, Quesadillas, and Breakfast Burritos.
* Big Spenders: The appetite for luxury on the links is real. The largest single on-course order in 2025 totaled $357 and included 6 Transfusions, 6 Lobster Rolls, 4 John Dalys, and 2 Flatbreads.
* Pace of Play Gains: The report notes a 15.5-minute improvement in average pace of play at ClubGrub-adopted courses, attributed to the efficiency of mobile ordering reducing backups at the halfway house.

"The next generation of golfers are demanding more from their on-course experience and are ditching the hot dog when greater access and a broader range of offerings are introduced," said ClubGrub Founder, Spencer Potter. "The traditional "dog at the turn" model is giving way to a more elevated, flexible operating approach. Our data demonstrates that this new model enhances the overall golf experience; delivering better experiences for golfers, supporting faster rounds, and driving incremental revenue for courses."
