THERE’S a way that Chick-fil-A customers can get some additional food and drink items not typically seen on menus.
The fast food giant offers them only through a specific avenue, and it could be temporarily unavailable soon.

Chick-fil-A notably has over 3,200 restaurants in 48 states.
At those restaurants, there are several fan-favorite chicken-based selections, including sandwiches, nuggets, bowls, and salads.
There are also breakfast options like chicken biscuits, bacon, egg and cheese biscuits, hash browns, and even dessert offerings like shakes, brownies, and cookies.
It’s consistent across the board, but there is a little-known location that offers even more options.
There are expanded offerings like pizza, tater tots, onion rings, and traditional chicken wings, among others, that can be found through Chick-fil-A’s Little Blue Menu.
The Little Blue Menu is featured at a special location in College Park, Maryland.
It’s often called a “test kitchen,” but it is a “restaurant concept” from Chick-fil-A, as noted by food insider Snackolator in a recent Facebook post.
Chick-fil-A notes on its website that the Little Blue Menu serves as a place that honors the “spirit of innovation” from founder S. Truett Cathy.
FOOD FANATICS
Culinary experts at the College Park location consistently create more food and drink options to serve alongside the main menu and see how they resonate with customers.
Another notable option on the Little Blue Menu includes a burger, something certainly not seen at the thousands of other Chick-fil-A locations.
There’s also sweet potato waffle fries and sweet potato tater tots.
Last year, there were even six different pizza variations customers could order on the Little Blue Menu.
Some recent and notable additions were a Swiss mushroom burger and “buff-lo” wings for this year’s March Madness, per the Little Blue Menu Instagram page.
It’s also important to note that the Little Blue Menu location in College Park is delivery-only.

EXPANSION PLANS?
Food truck versions of the Little Blue Menu have also made pop-ups in several states, including Kentucky and Indiana.
There was briefly a second Little Blue Menu in Nashville, but it closed.
Chick-fil-A also worked in 2023 to expand to an Atlanta restaurant, per Restaurant Dive.
Some construction issues delayed the build.
The Little Blue Menu location also confirmed in a post recently that it would be temporarily closing on May 1 for renovations.
A re-opening date has yet to be confirmed.
A Chick-fil-A fan also recently revealed a secret ordering hack that could get customers six sandwiches for $21.
Chick-fil-A confirmed last month that a new dressing was being added to its iconic lineup as well, but it won’t come with meals.
