Chick-fil-A is offering two new sandwich options for a limited time. But only if you live in select areas

WASHINGTON — Chick-fil-A is testing two new sandwiches in select Southern markets, giving fans a limited-time taste of what could be future menu additions — if they happen to live in the right place.

The fast-food chain has launched Avocado Sriracha BLT Sandwiches at its Oklahoma City locations and Sweet Chili Lime Crunch Sandwiches at restaurants in the Piedmont Triad region of North Carolina, which includes Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem. 

The sandwiches are available through March 7.

Both test items allow customers to choose from three chicken options: a classic breaded filet, a spicy breaded filet or grilled chicken.

The Avocado Sriracha BLT Sandwich, exclusive to Oklahoma City, features avocado mash, bacon and cayenne ranch. What sets it apart from other Chick-fil-A sandwiches is the bread: It’s served on Sriracha Swirl Toast rather than the chain’s usual bun or flatbread options.

In North Carolina’s Piedmont Triad, the Sweet Chili Lime Crunch Sandwich is topped with sweet chili sauce and a cabbage slaw dressed with ginger lime.

Whether the new sandwiches expand beyond Oklahoma and North Carolina will likely depend on customer feedback during the testing period, a common practice for the chain as it evaluates potential menu additions.

The sandwich tests are part of a broader slate of menu updates tied to Chick-fil-A’s 80th anniversary celebration. The Atlanta-based chain said in a press release that it is honoring its heritage this year with new food and drink offerings, throwback packaging and other surprises. 

To kick off the anniversary, Chick-fil-A introduced two new menu items earlier this month: Frosted Sodas and Floats. Frosted Sodas mix the company’s “Icedream” soft-serve ice cream with a customer’s choice of fountain drink, while Floats combine soda and Icedream for a more classic dessert offering. 

Both options will remain on the permanent menu.

Guests will also see limited-time retro packaging for the Original Chicken Sandwich, featuring vintage designs pulled from the fast food chain’s archives. Chick-fil-A is also selling $3.99 Classic Cups in four rotating retro designs. 

In addition to those cups nationwide, 3,000 Gold Fan Cups will be included. Customers who receive a Gold Fan Cup can win a year of free Chick-fil-A, including 52 entrees such as an Original Chicken Sandwich, Spicy Chicken Sandwich, Grilled Chicken Sandwich or an 8-count Chick-fil-A Nuggets, at participating locations.
