Chick-fil-A adds mac and cheese to its menu
Chick-fil-A restaurants add mac and cheese as a new menu item starting Monday.
CNBC News reports the item is Chick-fil-A’s first permanent side addition to its menu since 2016. Unlike other food competitors, the Atlanta based company rarely adds new menu items.
Amanda Norris, Chick’fil-A’s head of menu and packaging said, ” We have a very high bar when it comes to adding a menu item, but the feedback from our customers in the test market made this decision easy.”
Reports show a slimmer menu helps the Southern chain focus on menu staples like its chicken sandwich and keeps service fast. According to CNBC, menu additions have focused on healthier options.
Chick-fil-A is also rolling out Frosted Caramel Coffee for a limited time. The chain will begin offering the blend of cold brew, ice cream, and caramel syrup on Monday through November 9 while supplies last.
