Chick-fil-A Secret Menu Items [Updated 2024]

There’s a secret at Chick-fil-A, and I’m happy to share it with you: the chain has a huge range of secret menu items! Some of these are so delicious, they are even more popular than those on the regular menu.

There is no “official” Chick-fil-A Secret Menu, but the less complicated an item is, the more likely it is that an employee will make it for you.

Try these hidden Chick-fil-A menu items next time you visit! The Best Hidden Menu Items to Try at Chick-fil-A

1. Buffalo Chicken Sandwich

Featuring the Spicy Chicken Sandwich with Zesty Buffalo Sauce, you get a scrumptious crispy buffalo chicken sandwich with dill pickles and chips.

2. Spicy Char

One of Chick-fil-A’s most famous secret menu items is the Spicy Char-Grilled Chicken Patty, which is a grilled version of the Spicy Chicken Sandwich. 

3. Fried Chicken Club

Spicy Chars are grilled versions of fried sandwiches, while Fried Chicken Clubs are fried versions of grilled sandwiches. The Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich is a tasty twist on a classic dish. Ask for fried chicken instead of the grilled patty if it isn’t available by name.

4. Chicken, Egg & Cheese Biscuit

Regular menu items include a Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel, but you can also request it as a buttery Chicken, Egg & Cheese Biscuit.

5. Spicy Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel

Spicy Chicken sandwiches are well-known enough that you can ask for them by name at your local Chick-fil-A during the breakfast shift.

6. Chicken on Anything at Breakfast

It has been reported to us that because chicken is on Chick-fil-A’s breakfast menu, almost any breakfast sandwich can be customized by adding chicken. If your location (secretly) serves Spicy Chicken during the breakfast shift, then serve that with the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit as well!

7. Bacon on Anything at Breakfast

Chick-fil-A also offers pretty much any breakfast sandwich with bacon as an option.

In general, you can ask for anything on the menu to be added to anything else, and if your server isn’t too busy, there’s a good chance you’ll get exactly what you want.

8. Grilled Cheese

You can toast the bun on any sandwich and add sliced cheese. Want pickles, lettuce, and tomato with your sandwich? Choose the Chick-fil-A Deluxe.

9. Strawberry Lemonade

One of the most widely known and most widely available secret menu items, you may be able to ask for it by name. Tell your server you’d like lemonade with a scoop of strawberry milkshake topping if they don’t know what you’re talking about.

10. Root Beer Float

Root Beer Floats are another popular and widely available secret menu item made simply by adding vanilla ice cream to root beer.

11. Chocolate Cookies & Cream Milkshake

Make your Cookies & Cream milkshake even better by adding some chocolate syrup.

You can order these hacks and assemble them yourself if you don’t want Chick-fil-A to prepare them for you.

• The Chick-n-Mac Sandwich is a Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich that does not include pickles and is topped with mac & cheese.
• Nuggets or grilled nuggets are ordered along with mac & cheese, zesty buffalo sauce, and herb ranch sauce. The nuggets are broken up into small pieces and combined with the mac & cheese. Both sauces are drizzled over or mixed into the mac & cheese.
• The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is made with Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwiches or Spicy Chicken and extra packets of Zesty Buffalo Sauce. Then you dunk your sandwich in the sauce.
• You can stack the hash browns and the Chick-n-Minis on top of the chicken to make a Chick-n-Minis Masterpiece, and then dip them in your favorite sauce before eating.
• Adding lettuce, tomato, bacon, and mayo to a multigrain brioche bun creates a BLT at Chick-fil-A.
• With the Chicken Deluxe, simply add bacon and Herb Ranch dressing.
• There is a little more work involved with loaded chicken waffle fries, but it’s well worth it. Add 12 nuggets, large waffle fries, your favorite cheese, and sauce(s). Put the waffle fries on a plate, cut the nuggets into smaller pieces, and place them on top. Heat in the microwave for 20 seconds, and add sauce. We recommend waffle fries topped with pepper jack, spicy nuggets, and buffalo and ranch sauce.
