Believe or not, but relatively few people know about Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu. What do you know about it?
This article is going to show you some items on Chick-fil-A’s secret menu. If you’re familiar with Dwarf House, the original Chick-fil-A, the secret food menu is something you know all about.
Chick-fil-A is part and parcel made of red Georgia clay. This is indisputable ever since a small eatery called the Dwarf Grille opened right under Atlanta’s nose in tiny Hapeville, Georgia back in 1946. Since then millions have become loyal fans of the restaurant known for the bad-spelling cows singing how to “Eat More Chiken.”
What’s On Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?
How do you get to see Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu? You generally can’t be the drive-thru — these are dine-in options only. And you’ve got to ask (be nice) one of the workers. That’s how you’ll get to try some of these awesome secret recipes via Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu.
Spicy Chicken And Egg Biscuit
The Spicy Chicken and Egg Biscuit is something you’ll never see on the Chick-fil-A menu, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have it.
How To Order It: Just tell the cashier that you want to add egg to your Chicken Biscuit.
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is what you get when you ask for hot sauce on your Chicken Sandwich. The way they do it is just great.
The Double Decker Sandwich
The Double Decker Sandwich is one that very few Chick-fil-A servers can master. But for those that do, it’s a great treat.
Chicken Quesadilla
Chicken Quesadillas aren’t something you’d normally think would be served at Chick-fil-A, but this food item is so good that it should be added officially.
Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich
We all know that chicken is Chick-fil-A’s thing, so this Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich is a specialty that is right up their alley.
The Double Double Down
Special shoutout to the Instagram accounts @nocatsgotluv4me and @pass_the_salt and @hack_themenu for their endeavors in the world of secret menus. Check them all out for more food hacks.
How Do You Order From Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?
Chick-fil-A’s secret menu can be ordered by asking an employee for some of the options available. That means you can substitute turkey for chicken on the chicken sandwich. That means you can add hot sauce to your chicken tenders. You can also get an assortment of sauces applied to your Waffle Fries.
Final Word
If you’ve ever been to Chick-fil-A, you may know that those delicious chicken biscuits or waffle fries can be ordered a number of ways. One reason why is because Chick-fil-A has a secret menu.
There are so many good things to eat at Chick-fil-A. You can also try the restaurant’s Little Blue Menu.

I’m not a big fan of the plain fried rice, but for $1.50 more you can upgrade to pork fried rice. In addition, the wings are small but are very much worth the low price.”

Service was excellent, food was amazing! There were so many delicious looking things on the menu that my waitress had to help me out with a recommendation. I’m glad I listened to her, the BBQ Brisket Burger was out of this world. The fries were really good too. And then she talked me into getting the key lime pie, it was every bit as good as everything else was. I will definitely go back whenever I’m in Atlanta again.”The U Bar

I think we have literally ordered everything on the happy hour menu! You can’t beat the price!”Topgolf

Inside at the bar, you can see multiple screens from several vantage points while you eat and drink.One Google reviewer says: “This is a really fun place for all age groups. If golf is not your thing, they also offer table tennis or ping pong upstairs and pool tables downstairs. The putting area is spacious. Of course it is outdoors, but they offer large heat lamps directly over the seating area. There are two levels to the seating area. The first is a high bar with chairs. The second is a u-shaped outdoor sofa with a center table. All food and drink orders can be placed from your bay. For each game, each player gets 20 chances to “put the ball in the hole”. You can take all 20 swings in a row or rotate players as you’d like. If you aren’t interested in playing any of the game options, you can also dine in or have a round at the bar. Enjoy!”Taco Mac

Food critic Keith Lee stopped in Atlanta several months after his original Georgia good tour. While he was supposed to do a food tour proper, he switched things up unexpectedly by making an appearance in the city on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.
“There’s been a change of plans. Let’s talk about it. The next half of the food tour is not Atlanta,” he said. Explaining that he was going to be giving away free food, the Detroit-based food critic said there were some parties that pulled up with the intent to make a dollar and he wanted it made clear that they weren’t with him.
Will he come back to Atlanta for a food tour? We’ll see.
In late March, Lee announced on his Instagram that he and his family will be doing a “Redemption Tour,” for 2024, with Atlanta being the #1 spot on his list.
He stressed that there will be no do-overs, in other words, he won’t be returning to the same restaurants.
“This is a redemption tour: it’s not a good tour, meaning we’re not going to the same spots we went to last time,” he said. “This is a completely fresh slate.”
Things will be a little different though as the Lee family will have security with them this time, he said.
“We come in peace,” he said, a reference to the ruffled feathers that occurred last time he did a food jaunt through the city.
So where should Lee go? He mentioned that his focus this time will be mom-and-pop restaurants and food spots voted on by his followers, so here is a potential list.
What Atlanta Restaurants Should Keith Lee Visit?
K&K Soul Food
881 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy NW, Atlanta, GA 30318
The original Bankhead Restaurant has been cooking home-style meals for the southwest Atlanta community since the 1960s. Now called K&K Soul Food, the eatery, which has been owned for the same family for 40 years, continues to be a standout spot for cafeteria-style soul food. Today the restaurant is run by Kimario Smith, who took over for his mother and grandmother. With its famed Pork Chop plate and Steak plate both priced at $6.99, K&K Soul Food is one of the cheapest — and best — square meals you can find in Atlanta.
One K & K Soul Food reviewer on Facebook said this: “Good SoulFood. Taste like somebody’s Auntie definitely in the kitchen.”
Buttermilk Biscuits
1634 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30337
Tucked inside quaint shopping center Virginia Station off in College Park, Buttermilk Biscuits packs a big breakfast punch. Here’s what one reviewer says about Buttermilk Biscuits.
“The Belgian waffles were melt-in-your-mouth wonderful. Fried chicken breast was seasoned and cooked to crisp and juicy perfection, and the grits… I am a grits snob. There are literally only 3 or 4 restaurants in Atlanta that I refer others to when asked.”
Aviva by Kameel Coming To Buckhead
Aviva by Kameel is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Atlanta and expanding to Buckhead.
The menu consists of hormone-free, butter-free food items, along with halal meat and classic salads and vegetables that have been locally sourced.
Kelz Kitchen
Atlanta Locations:
- 156 Forsyth St SW, Atlanta, GA 30303 | (404) 330-8004
- 5015 Old National Hwy A, Atlanta, GA 30349 | (404) 500-2034
If you’re in the mood for some Coastal Carolina goodness, Kelz Kitchen is the place to check out. The eatery has two Atlanta locations.
Here’s what one reviewer says of Kelz Kitchen: “Omg when I tell you the lollipop lamb chops were cooked to perfection and the Salmon was grilled so well. The broccoli was fresh and the corn on the cob was sweet. I also enjoyed the pound cake with a Lemonade. I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Food is cooked to orders I recommend ordering online. They only accept debit cards just a heads up.”
Ms. Icey’s Kitchen & Bar
1371 Clairmont Rd, Decatur, GA 30033
The newest soul food spot in Decatur comes from owner and restaurateur Sim Walker, whose New York City rearing comes through in the vibe. Ms. Icey’s, named after Walker’s grandmother, is Decatur’s best-kept secret even though it has quickly become a culturally hip gathering place for those in the know. When cornbread comes in an iron skillet, and oxtails do as well, you know you’re in a foodie’s dream. Not only are many of the dishes a nod to Southern and soul food culture, but the drinks are mostly handcrafted, giving the place an organic life. The sweet potato waffles are to d
Final Word
No word on when Lee and his family will visit Atlanta again. They should definitely check out some of the best black restaurants in Atlanta, and there are plenty. If you like barbecue, see our list of the Best Atlanta BBQ Restaurants.
As for eateries below I-20, these Southside Atlanta restaurants have developed quite a following.
The craze hasn’t escaped metro Atlanta’s food and drink scene, which has seen a bar explosion in recent years.
