Updated February 2023! The Honey Baked Ham Company is legendary for their takeaway holiday feasts, but they also serve sandwiches, salads, and easy meals year round. You can order in store, online for pick up, or get some foods delivered from their modern day “catalog.” Fortunately for us, Honey Baked Ham has many dairy-free options, and are quite transparent about allergens and ingredients. We’ve combed though it all, and put together this detailed dairy-free guide.
Honey Baked Ham Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen & Vegan Notes
This guide to Honey Baked Ham includes dairy-free items and custom order options for their stores (online and in store), catalog, and their cafes. The Honey Baked Ham Company also ships signature meats, sides, and desserts (sorry, they don’t have any dairy-free desserts yet!) nationwide. This menu guide includes dairy-free menu options first, followed by custom order components. Be aware of special order requirements in parentheses () next to the menu items, and see the Heads Up notes to help fill in the blanks.
Bread Note: Please note that they do have a range of Dinner Rolls and other Breads at Honey Baked Ham, some which contain milk and some which do not. They are outlined below, but it’s for mix ups to happen. Make sure to verify the bread / roll options and which contain milk before ordering.

Hi I appreciate your research. We’re hoping to place a Thanksgiving order. We’re not dealing with an allergy, we’re dealing with a child who has Galactosemia which is life-threatening. There is no medication to reverse the effects. So we need to be even more careful than an allergic reaction. I’m looking into the Honey Baked Ham company. I see ‘milk’ listed as an allergen on their list, but they don’t list ‘butter’. We need completely dairy-free. Advice?
Hi Louise, if it lists milk, then I would avoid it. I’m not quite sure what you are asking though.
What a terrific tool, thank you for sharing it!
