Chick-fil-A is rolling out a limited-time Chicken & Waffles Sandwich lineup starting Aug. 24, the company said Tuesday. The chain, the third-largest quick-service restaurant in the U.S. by sales, is betting the sweet-and-savory breakfast-to-dinner item can drive traffic across dayparts.
The sandwiches come in two sizes: a breakfast version available until 10:30 a.m. with a smaller filet, and an entrée-sized option served from 10:30 a.m. to close. Both feature maple-flavored waffles, a Chick-fil-A chicken filet (original, spicy or grilled), three strips of applewood-smoked bacon and honey butter, served with syrup. The launch follows a test in select markets last year.
Alongside the sandwiches, Chick-fil-A is adding S'mores Milkshake and S'mores Frosted Coffee to the fall menu. The items are part of the chain's yearlong "Newstalgia" campaign, which blends classic menu items with new twists.
