Are you an early-bird-gets-the-worm (or rather, gets the Chick-n-Minis® before breakfast ends at 10:30 am) or a let’s have-a-chicken-sandwich-for-dinner kind of person? While we know everyone has their opinion about the best thing to order at Chick-fil-A®, here are our recommendations on what to get at Chick-fil-A no matter the time of day.
What to get for breakfast
Chick-fil-A Restaurants serve breakfast from 6:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday. Whether you prefer sweet or savory in the morning, we have something for you. For a hearty classic, try the Chick-fil-A® Chicken Biscuit or the Chick-fil-A® Chick-n-Minis®. For a 300 calorie and higher-protein option, go for the Egg White Grill. Need breakfast on-the-go? Order a Hash Brown Scramble Burrito. For something sweet, dig into the Berry Parfait.
While we offer several beverages to drink, the below beverages are sure to pair well with whatever your morning go-to meal is:
- Coffee
- Iced Coffee (which you can customize on the Chick-fil-A® App)
- Sunjoy® (a refreshing combination of classic Chick-fil-A® Lemonade and freshly-brewed Iced Tea)
- Chocolate Milk
- Simply Orange® Juice
