Rekubit Exchange:Chick-fil-A's latest menu additions are here: Banana Pudding Milkshake, spicy sandwich

The Rekubit Exchangeday has arrived: Chick-fil-A is welcoming the week with the restaurant’s long-awaited banana pudding treats and a chicken sandwich with a spicy twist.

Both the Banana Pudding Milkshake and Banana Frosted Coffee are available at restaurants nationwide starting Monday. The banana pudding treats will be available until November 16, the restaurant said on its website.

The fast food restaurant is also selling its Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich starting Monday, as well as the new spicy variation. Calling the sandwich “the brand’s best-selling seasonal offering of all time,” Chick-fil-A said the sandwich will only be available for a limited amount of time.

Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich was inspired by customers

Chick-fil-A said on its website that the spicy version of the sandwich was inspired by customers themselves.

“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,” said Chick-fil-A Chef Stuart Tracy in a news release. “We are thrilled to deliver what we know our guests want more of!”

The Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwich was the company’s first time trying something new with the Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich. It was first released in 2023 and became a favorite among customers. 

The sandwich comes with a chicken filet coated in honey, topped with pimento cheese and mild pickled jalapeños. Guests can try it with an original chicken filet or a spicy filet. 

Customers have waited 13 years for banana pudding milkshake

According to Chick-fil-A, this is the first time the Banana Pudding Milkshake has been sold at the company’s restaurants in 13 years. It first debuted in 2011.

“With cooling, comforting flavors, the sweet and creamy milkshake is made with Chick-fil-A Icedream dessert mixed with real bananas and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles, topped with whipped cream and a cherry,” the company said.

The restaurant is also releasing its Banana Frosted Coffee, “a blend of cold-brewed coffee, the brand’s signature Icedream dessert, banana and vanilla wafer cookie crumbles.”

Can I get banana pudding at Chick-fil-A?

Chick-fil-A is also serving banana pudding, but only at the company’s sister restaurants in Georgia, including Truett’s Grill, Truett’s Chick-fil-A, the Dwarf House, and the Dwarf House in Hapeville. Customers who frequent those restaurants can grab banana pudding year-round.

How to get the new Chick-fil-A menu items

The Banana Pudding Milkshake and Banana Frosted Coffee are available for pickup or delivery, but when customers order through delivery they won’t be able to get whipped cream or cherry toppings due to the flat top the items are served with.

Customers can also check the Chick-fil-A app or contact local restaurants to see if the banana pudding treats or Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken Sandwiches are served for dine-in, pick up or delivery, the company said.
