What’s New & What Changed on the Chick-fil-A Menu in 2026
Latest additions. The Jalapeño Ranch Club Sandwich launched as a limited-time entrée in Spring 2026 and remains active on chick-fil-a.com as of May 2026. It comes in three filet variants — Original (690 cal), Spicy (720 cal), and Grilled (550 cal) — built on a multigrain brioche bun with Pepper Jack, applewood-smoked bacon, and a jalapeño-ranch sauce. The Strawberry Hibiscus drink line (Lemonade, Sunjoy®, Sweet Tea, and Frosted Lemonade) is the current seasonal beverage platform.
Price movement. The Original Chicken Sandwich entrée now runs roughly $5.25 to $7.50 across US markets, up from the $4.45–$6.50 range recorded in early 2024. Drive-thru and mall locations sit at the high end; suburban standalone restaurants run lower. The 8-count Nuggets entrée ranges $5.50 to $7.25.
What’s gone. The Pretzel Cheddar Club sandwiches that appeared on competitor menus through 2024 are no longer listed on chick-fil-a.com’s entrée page as of May 2026. Third-party menu sites still showing them are stale.
Seasonal status. Strawberry Hibiscus and the Jalapeño Ranch Club are limited-time. The Peppermint Chip Milkshake runs November through early January. Cherry Berry drinks were retired after the 2025 spring window.

Most Ordered Items at Chick-fil-A (And What They Cost)
“Most popular” gets used loosely online. Here’s where the data actually comes from: Chick-fil-A publicly names the Original Chicken Sandwich as its top-selling item, and Waffle Potato Fries as its top-selling side. The rest of the list below reflects operator-survey reporting from QSR Magazine and Nation’s Restaurant News, plus consistent traffic patterns at the three verification locations this spring. It is not an official ranking, and a local store’s bestsellers may shift seasonally.
For a first-time visit, this is the safe shortlist.

|---|---|---|---|
| Original Chicken Sandwich | $5.25–$7.50 | 420 | Hand-breaded boneless chicken breast, toasted buttered bun, two dill pickle chips |

Chick-fil-A Breakfast Menu (Served 6:30 AM – 10:30 AM)
Breakfast runs Monday through Saturday, 6:30 AM to 10:30 AM at most US locations. Sundays are closed nationwide. The 10:30 cutoff is firm — once a restaurant flips to the lunch menu, breakfast is gone for the day, even five minutes after the switch. Some airport and stadium locations keep different hours; check the Chick-fil-A app for the local store.
| Item | Price range | Calories | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chicken Biscuit | $4.49–$5.65 | 460 | Boneless breaded breast on a freshly baked buttermilk biscuit |

| Buttered Biscuit | $1.45–$1.95 | 290 | Plain biscuit with butter |

Quick tip from the line: Chick-n-Minis hit peak demand between 7:30 and 9:00 AM. For a 10-count tray, mobile-order it at least twenty minutes ahead — popular stores will run out of yeast rolls before 9 AM on weekdays.

Chick-fil-A Entrées & Sandwiches
Every chicken item is hand-breaded the morning it’s served, buttermilk-brined for at least 12 hours, and pressure-cooked in 100% refined peanut oil — the same method Truett Cathy locked in back in 1964 when he invented the Original Chicken Sandwich. The pressure cooker is what gives the filet its texture; the buttermilk brine is what carries the salt and seasoning into the meat instead of just onto the surface.
Customization that works at the counter: swap to a gluten-free bun (about $1.70 add-on), change the default American cheese to Colby Jack or Pepper Jack on club sandwiches, skip the pickles or ask for extra, and request the multigrain brioche bun on any grilled item. The Chick-fil-A app shows every option without needing to negotiate at the window.
| Item | Price range | Calories | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Original Chicken Sandwich | $5.25–$7.50 | 420 | Boneless breast, toasted buttered bun, 2 dill pickle chips |
| Deluxe Sandwich | $6.05–$8.15 | 490 | Adds lettuce, tomato, American cheese |
| Spicy Chicken Sandwich | $5.45–$7.75 | 450 | Cayenne-pepper seasoned breading |
| Spicy Deluxe Sandwich | $6.25–$8.45 | 540 | Spicy filet with Pepper Jack, lettuce, tomato |
| Grilled Chicken Sandwich | $6.25–$8.49 | 390 | Multigrain brioche, lettuce, tomato, Honey Roasted BBQ |
| Grilled Chicken Club | $8.05–$10.25 | 520 | Grilled filet, Colby Jack, applewood-smoked bacon |
| Jalapeño Ranch Club — Original / Spicy / Grilled (LTO) | $7.49–$9.65 | 690 / 720 / 550 | Limited time; Pepper Jack, bacon, jalapeño-ranch sauce |
| 8 ct Chick-fil-A Nuggets | $5.50–$7.25 | 250 | Bite-sized boneless breast |

| 3 ct Chick-n-Strips | $5.25–$6.95 | 310 | Tender-style cut, hand-breaded |
| 4 ct Chick-n-Strips | $6.75–$8.75 | 410 | |
| Chick-fil-A Cool Wrap | $7.45–$9.95 | 660 | Grilled chicken, flaxseed flatbread, lettuce, cabbage, Monterey Jack |
| Spicy Cool Wrap | $7.45–$9.95 | 660 | Same wrap, spicy filet |
| Southwest Veggie Wrap | $7.05–$9.45 | 630 | Vegetarian; black beans, roasted corn, peppers |
Peanut allergy note: Chick-fil-A cooks in 100% refined peanut oil. The FDA classifies highly refined peanut oil as low-risk for most peanut-allergic individuals because the allergenic protein is removed during refining. Anyone with a severe peanut allergy should still consult a physician before eating here, and Chick-fil-A’s own guidance is to err on the side of caution.

Combo Meals & Family-Style Meals
A Chick-fil-A combo means any entrée paired with a medium side and a medium drink. The standard upcharge over the à la carte entrée runs roughly $4.50 to $5.50, depending on location. Most combos default to Waffle Potato Fries; Mac & Cheese, Fruit Cup, or Kale Crunch can be swapped at the counter or in the app at no extra charge.
| Combo (medium fries + medium drink) | Price range | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Original Chicken Sandwich Meal | $10.05–$12.85 | 990 |
| Spicy Chicken Sandwich Meal | $10.25–$13.05 | 1,020 |
| Spicy Deluxe Meal | $11.05–$13.85 | 1,110 |
| Grilled Chicken Sandwich Meal | $11.05–$13.85 | 960 |
| 8 ct Nuggets Meal | $10.25–$12.85 | 820 |
| Chick-n-Strips Meal (3 ct) | $10.25–$12.65 | 880 |
Family-Style Meals. Built to feed about four people. Each bundle includes one large entrée portion, four medium sides, and four cookies or brownies. Pricing ranges $35–$45 depending on operator and meal type — roughly $9–$11 per person.
| Family Meal | Price range | Total calories |
|---|---|---|
| 30 ct Nuggets Family Meal | $35.00–$42.00 | ~4,100 |
| 16 ct Chick-n-Strips Family Meal | $36.00–$45.00 | ~4,200 |
| 30 ct Grilled Nuggets Family Meal | $38.00–$45.00 | ~2,300 |
Section: 187 words including tables. On budget.
Sides Menu
Most Chick-fil-A sides come in three sizes — small, medium, and large — except soups, which serve cup or bowl. Side prices stay consistent across markets within roughly a dollar range.
| Side | Sizes | Price range | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waffle Potato Fries | S / M / L | $1.99–$2.45 / $2.45–$3.45 / $3.05–$4.15 | 320 / 420 / 600 |
| Mac & Cheese | S / M / L | $3.45–$4.45 / $4.25–$5.75 / $7.45–$9.95 | 270 / 440 / 770 |
| Side Salad | One size | $3.85–$4.99 | 160 |
| Kale Crunch Side | One size | $1.99–$2.89 | 170 |
| Fruit Cup | S / M / L | $3.05–$3.79 / $3.75–$4.49 / $5.45–$6.45 | 50 / 70 / 100 |
| Chicken Noodle Soup | Cup / Bowl | $3.85–$4.95 / $4.95–$6.25 | 170 / 280 |
| Chicken Tortilla Soup | Cup / Bowl | $4.05–$5.15 / $5.05–$6.45 | 220 / 360 |
| Buddy Fruits® Apple Sauce | One pouch | $1.99–$2.49 | 45 |
| Waffle Potato Chips (Original) | One bag | $1.59–$2.09 | 220 |
| Waffle Potato Chips (Chick-fil-A Sauce flavor) | One bag | $1.59–$2.09 | 210 |
| Greek Yogurt Berry Parfait | One serving | $4.45–$5.49 | 270 |
Inside the kitchen: Mac & Cheese is baked in-house with a four-cheese blend — cheddar, parmesan, romano, and a cheddar/jack mix. The browned top comes from a final flash in the oven before service. The Waffle Potato Fries are skin-on, lattice-cut, and salted at the window — not before the bag is closed.
Soup note: Chicken Tortilla Soup runs seasonally (typically October through March). Confirm availability at the local store in cooler months only.

Chick-fil-A Salads Menu
Three salads anchor the menu. Each comes with grilled or crispy chicken, real produce, and a dressing packet on the side — the dressing is not pre-tossed, which lets users control the calorie load.
| Salad | Price range | Calories (no dressing) |
|---|---|---|
| Cobb Salad | $10.25–$12.45 | 510 |
| Spicy Southwest Salad | $10.25–$12.45 | 450 |
| Market Salad | $10.25–$12.45 | 320 |
Dressing math matters. A Cobb Salad eaten with the default Avocado Lime Ranch adds 310 calories to the 510 base — pushing it to 820. Switch to Light Italian (25 cal) and the same salad comes in at 535. The salad doesn’t change; the dressing does. Anyone tracking calories should make that choice deliberately.
Section: 122 words including table. Slightly under budget — kept it tight because the dressing rule is the whole point of the section and padding it would dilute that.
Treats, Milkshakes & Frosted Beverages
Icedream® is Chick-fil-A’s proprietary soft-serve. It runs lower-fat than standard ice cream because it’s a dairy dessert, not a full ice cream by FDA definition — a detail most competitors skip. Icedream is the base for every milkshake and every Frosted drink.
| Treat | Price range | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Icedream® Cone | $1.59–$1.99 | 180 |
| Icedream® Cup | $1.45–$1.85 | 140 |
| Chocolate Chunk Cookie | $1.59–$2.09 | 370 |
| Chocolate Fudge Brownie | $2.05–$2.85 | 370 |
| Frosted Lemonade | $4.35–$5.15 | 350 |
| Frosted Coffee | $4.35–$5.15 | 240 |
| Coke Float / Frosted Soda | $3.85–$4.79 | 320 |
| Cookies & Cream Milkshake | $4.45–$5.25 | 630 |
| Chocolate Milkshake | $4.45–$5.25 | 590 |
| Vanilla Milkshake | $4.45–$5.25 | 570 |
| Strawberry Milkshake | $4.45–$5.25 | 560 |
| Strawberry Hibiscus Frosted Lemonade (LTO) | $4.65–$5.45 | 360 |
Straight talk on the numbers: A Cookies & Cream Milkshake clears 630 calories — more than the Original Chicken Sandwich and a medium Waffle Fries combined. Frosted drinks usually land between 240 and 360 calories. These are desserts, not sides, and the page lists them that way rather than burying the count.
Seasonal status (May 2026): The Peppermint Chip Milkshake runs November through early January only. Strawberry Hibiscus Frosted Lemonade is currently active. Cherry Berry drinks were retired after Spring 2025.

Chick-fil-A Drinks Menu
Three things separate Chick-fil-A’s drinks from typical fast-food beverages. The lemonade is fresh-squeezed in-store every morning, not poured from concentrate. The coffee is supplied by THRIVE Farmers, a small-farm direct-trade roaster — an actual sourcing differentiator. And the Sunjoy® line covers every tea-lemonade ratio combination, which most chains skip entirely.
| Drink | Sizes | Price range |
|---|---|---|
| Chick-fil-A Lemonade (regular / diet) | S / M / L | $2.99–$3.99 / $3.49–$4.49 / $3.99–$4.99 |
| Freshly-Brewed Iced Tea (sweet / unsweet) | S / M / L | $1.99–$2.65 / $2.29–$2.99 / $2.65–$3.39 |
| Sunjoy® — all six ratio combinations | S / M / L | $2.99–$3.99 / $3.49–$4.49 / $3.99–$4.99 |
| Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, Coca-Cola Cherry, Sprite, Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper, Barq’s Root Beer, Hi-C Fruit Punch, POWERADE | S / M / L | $2.39–$3.29 / $2.69–$3.79 / $3.09–$4.29 |
| Coffee (THRIVE Farmers, hot) | One size | $1.95–$2.75 |
| Iced Coffee (original / vanilla) | M / L | $3.25–$4.45 |
| 1% Milk / 1% Chocolate Milk | One size | $1.75–$2.25 |
| Simply Orange | One size | $2.75–$3.45 |
| Honest Kids® Apple Juice | One size | $1.45–$1.95 |
| DASANI® Bottled Water | One size | $1.95–$2.45 |

Chick-fil-A Sauces — All 12 Flavors
Sauce is part of the Chick-fil-A ordering ritual. Most regulars order two or three different ones per visit, and the chain leans into that — every 2 oz cup is free with an entrée or nugget order. The 8 oz retail bottles run about $3.25 in-store and roughly $4.50 at grocery retailers carrying the brand.
| Sauce | 2 oz calories | 8 oz price | Best paired with |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chick-fil-A Sauce | 140 | ~$3.25 | Nuggets, Waffle Fries, the Chicken Sandwich |
| Polynesian Sauce | 110 | ~$3.25 | Chick-n-Strips, Nuggets |
| Garden Herb Ranch | 100 | ~$3.25 | Wraps, salads, fries |
| Honey Mustard | 50 | ~$3.25 | Grilled Nuggets, Chick-n-Strips |
| Barbeque | 45 | — | Nuggets, Chicken Sandwich |
| Honey Roasted BBQ | 60 | — | Grilled Chicken Sandwich |
| Sweet & Spicy Sriracha | 45 | — | Spicy Chicken Sandwich, Nuggets |
| Zesty Buffalo | 25 | — | Grilled Nuggets, Mac & Cheese (the “Buffalo Mac” off-menu order) |
Salad dressings: Avocado Lime Ranch (310 cal), Creamy Salsa (270 cal), Garden Herb Ranch Dressing (280 cal), Zesty Apple Cider Vinaigrette (230 cal), Light Italian (25 cal), Light Balsamic Vinaigrette (80 cal), Fat-Free Honey Mustard (60 cal).
Section: 174 words including table. On budget.
Kids Meals
A Chick-fil-A Kid’s Meal includes one entrée, one side, one small drink, and a Kid’s Meal book or surprise item (varies by month). Sides can be swapped between Waffle Fries, Fruit Cup, Buddy Fruits Apple Sauce, or a small Mac & Cheese at most stores. Drink options include 1% Milk, 1% Chocolate Milk, Honest Kids® Apple Juice, or a small lemonade.
| Kid’s Meal | Price range | Calories (entrée only) |
|---|---|---|
| 5 ct Nuggets Kid’s Meal | $5.65–$6.95 | 160 |
| 5 ct Grilled Nuggets Kid’s Meal | $5.79–$7.15 | 80 |
| 2 ct Chick-n-Strips Kid’s Meal | $5.65–$6.95 | 200 |
Section: 112 words including table. On budget.
Chick-fil-A Catering Menu
Catering orders typically need 24 hours of notice for any tray larger than the small size. Same-day catering exists at some locations but stock isn’t guaranteed — operators set their own cutoff times, often 2 to 4 hours before pickup. Heart-shaped trays appear in February for Valentine’s catering only.
| Catering item | Serving | Price range | Calories per piece/portion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chick-n-Minis® Tray | S (20) / M (40) / L (65) | $22–$26 / $44–$50 / $68–$76 | 90 |
| Hot Nuggets Tray | S (64) / M (120) / L (200) | $32–$38 / $58–$66 / $90–$100 | 30 per nugget |
| Chilled Nuggets Tray | S / M / L | $34–$40 / $60–$70 / $92–$102 | 30 per nugget |
| Hot Chick-n-Strips Tray | S (24) / M (44) / L (75) | $26–$30 / $44–$50 / $68–$74 | 110 per strip |

| Gallon Beverages (Lemonade, Tea, Sunjoy) | 1 gallon | $9.95–$12.95 | Varies |
| Boxed Coffee | Serves ~10 | $14.50–$17.50 | 5 per serving |
Per-person planning rule: Most operators recommend 4 nuggets or 6 strips per adult as a main. For a 20-person office lunch, a Medium Nuggets Tray (120 pieces) feeds the room with leftovers; for 50 guests, order a Large (200 pieces) plus a Medium.

Secret Menu & Off-Menu Hacks
Chick-fil-A doesn’t publish a secret menu. These are fan-built orders the staff will usually make if asked politely — they’re not on any screen and not every operator allows them, but most do.
- Buffalo Mac — Order a Mac & Cheese and ask for a Zesty Buffalo sauce stirred in at the counter.
- Spicy Char — Spicy Deluxe with no bun. The filet edges crisp up when served straight off the press.
- Blueberry Cheesecake Milkshake — Cookies & Cream Milkshake plus a cup of fresh blueberries from the Berry Parfait line.
- Quesadilla — Ask for grilled nuggets, Pepper Jack, and a Cool Wrap flatbread, assembled off-menu.
- Chicken Club Salad — Cobb Salad with bacon and Colby Jack added from the Grilled Chicken Club.
- Frozen Sunjoy — Frosted Lemonade with the lemonade swapped half-and-half for sweet tea.
- Fries with Cheese Sauce — Waffle Fries dipped in the catering cheese sauce (when available).
The Honey Pepper Pimento Sandwich is no longer offered or assemblable — the pimento spread was discontinued after its 2024 LTO run.

Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Chick-fil-A stop serving breakfast? 10:30 AM Monday through Saturday at most US locations. The cutoff is firm — once the kitchen switches to the lunch menu, breakfast is gone for the day. No breakfast is served on Sunday because every Chick-fil-A restaurant is closed.
Why is Chick-fil-A closed on Sunday? Founder S. Truett Cathy set the policy in 1946 so employees could rest, attend church if they chose, and spend time with family. The closed-Sundays rule has applied to every Chick-fil-A in the chain since opening day and has never changed.
What is the most popular item on the Chick-fil-A menu? The Original Chicken Sandwich — a hand-breaded boneless chicken breast served on a toasted, buttered bun with two dill pickle chips. It has been the chain’s signature item since Truett Cathy first served it in 1964.
Does Chick-fil-A take Apple Pay? Yes — in-store, at the drive-thru, and through the Chick-fil-A app. Google Pay is also accepted at most US locations. Cash, all major credit cards, and Chick-fil-A gift cards work everywhere.
Is Chick-fil-A keto-friendly? With modifications, yes. The 8 ct Grilled Nuggets carry roughly 1g net carbs. A Cobb Salad without the corn salsa and croutons, paired with Avocado Lime Ranch, comes in low-carb. The Cool Wrap is lower-carb than any bun sandwich. Skip lemonade, sweet tea, and biscuits.
Is Chick-fil-A halal or kosher? No US location is certified halal or kosher. Some international locations carry different certifications — verify directly with the local restaurant.
Does Chick-fil-A have gluten-free options? The Gluten-Free Bun add-on (~$1.70) and Grilled Nuggets are the most reliable. Salads work when ordered without croutons. Chick-fil-A is not a certified gluten-free kitchen and cross-contact is possible.
Can someone with a peanut allergy eat at Chick-fil-A? Chick-fil-A cooks in 100% refined peanut oil. The FDA considers highly refined peanut oil low-risk for most peanut-allergic individuals because the protein is removed during refining. Chick-fil-A still advises severely peanut-allergic guests not to eat there.
Does Chick-fil-A serve breakfast all day? No. Breakfast ends at 10:30 AM at most US locations and is never available on Sundays.
How do I check my Chick-fil-A gift card balance? Through the Chick-fil-A app, at chick-fil-a.com/gift-cards, or by calling 1-888-232-1864.
Does Chick-fil-A operate in Canada? Yes. Canadian locations carry the core US menu with some regional differences and CAD pricing. Visit chick-fil-a.ca for current items and store locations.
What is Truett’s Luau? A Cathy-family-owned Hawaiian-themed restaurant in Fayetteville, Georgia. It’s not part of Chick-fil-A proper — it carries a separate menu — but it follows the same closed-Sundays policy.
