While we love Chick-fil-A classics (hello, grilled chicken sandwich), there’s a treasure trove of hidden menu items that lie behind the counter. For a flavorful adventure, buckle up and check out these 10 Chick-fil-A secret menu items that’ll make you wonder why you haven’t tried them yet. Trust us, you don’t want to miss out on these!
10. Spicy Chicken Kale Salad
This is not a typical menu hack; it’s a healthy hack! Order a kale salad and ask for a blackened spicy grilled chicken as your protein—a combination that’s both balanced and satisfying! You can also try it with grilled nuggets, and throw in some buffalo sauce for a bit of indulgence.
9. Ice Cream Sandwich
Of course, we can’t have this list without the ice cream sandwich hack that’s impossible to mess up. You have to build it yourself, and the process is super easy! Order two chocolate chunk cookies and an Icedream cup. Stuff the ice cream between the cookies, and you’re done.
8. Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
So you love the Spicy Chicken Sandwich but want to take the heat one notch higher? This is the perfect menu hack for you! All you need to do is order the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and ask for buffalo sauce on top of the sandwich to crank that heat up. Others would love to have this sandwich with a grilled chicken.
7. Grilled Cheese
It might seem odd to forgo something that Chick-fil-A does so well, and yes, we’re talking about chicken. However, this hack is helpful for days when you want to go meatless. You can have the bun from any sandwich toasted with cheese; for a more flavorful version, order the Chick-fil-A Deluxe, hold the chicken, and enjoy the addition of lettuce, tomato, and pickle chips!
6. Soda Hacks
Even though it’s not summer, there’s no stopping you from getting a delightful float. At Chick-fil-A, just order your favorite fountain drink and add a soft serve ice cream on top. Our recommended options? Root beer float, Dr. Pepper float, and Coca-Cola float.
5. Chicken on Any Breakfast Item
If you can’t get enough of chicken even during breakfast hours, well, lucky you. Because at Chick-fil-A, chicken is on the chain’s breakfast menu, so you can add it to pretty much any breakfast sandwich. If you’re looking to spice up your morning, you can’t go wrong with having a spicy chicken in your Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Biscuit!
4. Bacon on Any Breakfast Item
If you can add chicken to any breakfast item, you can do the same thing with bacon! You know what they say, everything’s better with bacon, so don’t hesitate to add it even to a Hash Brown Scramble Burrito. Also, anything on the breakfast menu can be added to anything else, as long your request isn’t too complicated.
3. Chocolate Cookies and Cream Shake
We already love the cookies and cream shake from Chick-fil-A, but it can be better! And by that we mean adding a few pumps of chocolate syrup to make it more decadent. Pro-tip: if you’re getting a large-sized cookies and cream shake, ask for 3 pumps of chocolate!
2. Loaded Chicken Waffle Fries
Now, this Chick-fil-A secret menu hack requires a bit of assembly but totally worth it. It’s basically loaded fries but with chicken nuggets. Order your fries, nuggets, pepper jack cheese (or mac & cheese!), and a side of buffalo sauce. Layer them together, top it all off with the sauce, and enjoy!
1. Chicken Sandwich with Fries and Mac & Cheese
Since you’ve warmed up with the loaded chicken waffle fries, here’s another menu hack that you can put together. This sandwich mash features the Chick-fil-A Sandwich, famous sauce, fries, and mac & cheese, all stacked together. Fair warning: some of the ingredients may ooze out from the sandwich, so it’s better to try it at home.
