With this in mind, we did a little digging and these are some of the most fun combinations off of Chick-fil-A’s "secret menu," as inspired by fans online and social media platforms.
The Best Secret Menu Items at Chick-fil-A
Chick-Fil-A Sandwich With Fries and Mac and Cheese
Inspired by a customer who was having a bad day and needed some fast food relief and a new menu hack to try, this delicious, comforting secret menu item came about after Instagram user @sociallyawkwardbaker posted about it, thus attracting tons of comments and intrigue. The user wrote, “All these things are delicious separately: Chick-fil-A sandwich, the fries, the famous sauce, and the Mac and cheese! So of course they taste amazing all stacked together in this beautiful sandwich mash I made!!” describing the order as a classic sandwich with sauce filled with crispy waffle fries and gooey mac and cheese.
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
This menu hack at Chick-fil-A is simple, effective, and oh-so-tasty. If you’re looking to crank the heat up further, order the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and ask for Buffalo Sauce on top of the sandwich for a real zesty kick.
Blueberry Cheesecake Milkshake
Upgrade a basic vanilla milkshake at Chick-fil-A by adding a slice of cheesecake to the blender for a bold, sweet, rich treat with a tangy berry flavor and a bright pop of color. To do this, you’ll order a slice of Blueberry Cheesecake mixed with a Vanilla Milkshake, blended together, for a smooth, rich dessert. Some locations may not offer blueberry cheesecake, in which case it won’t work, but most do, so give this pro tip a try and see.
Chick-fil-A Ice Cream Sandwich
It’s pretty easy to create an ice cream sandwich at Chick-fil-A, and there are many online videos and posts that show how to order one. For example, there’s a TikTok video from user cfawoburn, explaining the process (if it can even be called that, as it’s so simple). To build a sandwich, order two chocolate chunk cookies and an Icedream cup, or just the ice cream. Combine by stuffing the ice cream in between cookies. Done!
Spicy Chicken Egg & Cheese Biscuit
You can’t make this swap any simpler. Suggested by The Krazy Coupon Lady, you’d order a classic Chicken Egg & Cheese Biscuit, but ask for a spicy chicken patty instead of an original. It’s a super easy way to give your breakfast sandwich some extra heat, and you can also add sauces or condiments, such as sriracha or hot sauce, to it for even greater spice and flavor.
Root Beer Float
A classic secret menu item that’ll never get old, the root beer float at Chick-fil-A is a popular pick for a reason. Just order root beer soda and a cup of Icedream or ice cream to create it instantly. A tip? Order a large Icedream and medium root beer soda and ask them to mix them together.
