The chain is also bringing back its Banana Pudding Milkshake after a 13-year hiatus and adding a new Banana Frosted Coffee
Chick-fil-A is bringing back its Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich nationwide starting Aug. 26 for a limited time. The sandwich was first introduced a year ago and since became the brand’s best-selling seasonal offering ever. Additionally, the chain is adding a spicy version, also available for a limited time at participating restaurants.
The sandwich, Chick-fil-A’s first-ever twist on its signature offering, includes a filet drizzled with honey, topped with pimento cheese, and served on a toasted bun with mild pickled jalapeños. Customers can also now order the sandwich with a spicy filet. The sandwich starts at $6.85 for the original filet and $7.25 for the spicy filet, though prices may vary by location.
“When we released the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich last fall, not only did we receive overwhelmingly positive feedback, but we also saw our guests making their own unique twists by swapping the original filet for the spicy filet. They inspired us to officially offer a spicy version as its own menu item, and we are thrilled to deliver what we know our guests want more of,” Chick-fil-A chef Stuart Tracy said in a statement.
Additionally, Chick-fil-A’s Banana Pudding Milkshake is returning to menus after a 13-year hiatus. The milkshake is made with the brand’s signature Icedream dessert mixed with bananas and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles, topped with whipped cream and a cherry. It starts at $4.85.
And, Chick-fil-A is introducing a new Banana Frosted Coffee, featuring a blend of cold-brewed coffee, Icedream, banana and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles and starting at $4.75. With this launch, the chain is leveraging a skyrocketing demand for cold brew coffee. According to Coffee Intelligence, the cold coffee sector is expected to grow by 22% each year for the next five years.
“Every decision we make regarding our menu is extremely intentional,” director of menu and packaging Allison Duncan said in a statement. “While our core products are what our guests know and love us for, we also like to keep variety and innovation top of mind. Whether we are surprising our guests with new flavors and offerings or taking classic items and bringing them back with a twist, each menu introduction is made after listening to their needs.”
