Chick-fil-A has introduced a limited-time Nuggets & Strips Mix at select restaurants, giving customers two of its chicken formats in one order. The test is geographically limited, so this is not yet a nationwide menu launch.
Confirmed details at a glance
- What is included: five nuggets and two Chick-n-Strips in one box.
- Nugget choice: original or grilled nuggets.
- Test markets: select restaurants in Nashville, Tennessee, and Las Vegas, Nevada.
- Availability: October 5, 2026 through April 3, 2027, while offered at participating locations.
- Ordering: entrée only or as a meal, with dine-in, pickup and delivery options.
What exactly is the Nuggets & Strips Mix?
The test combines a 5-count nugget order with two Chick-n-Strips. Customers can choose classic breaded nuggets or grilled nuggets, which makes the box more flexible than a standard single-item entrée. Chick-fil-A says it can be ordered by itself or as part of a meal.
The practical appeal is variety: diners do not have to choose between bite-size nuggets and larger strips. It may also help groups or first-time customers compare textures and select more than one dipping sauce. That assessment is our editorial analysis; Chick-fil-A has not announced whether the test will expand nationally.
Where can you order it?
Availability is limited to participating restaurants in the Nashville and Las Vegas markets. Because individual restaurant participation can vary, check the Chick-fil-A app or online ordering menu for your selected location before making a trip. The company lists April 3, 2027 as the end of the current test window.
Can rewards points be used?
Chick-fil-A states that customers can earn Chick-fil-A One points on the purchase, but the mixed entrée is not currently available as a points redemption reward. Normal account and participating-location rules still apply.
Is there a catering version?
Yes. The official support page lists a Nuggets & Strips Mix catering tray with 65 nuggets and 20 Chick-n-Strips. Pricing and availability can differ by restaurant, so confirm both in the app or with the local catering team.
Will it become a nationwide item?
No nationwide rollout has been announced as of November 5, 2026. Restaurant tests commonly help brands measure demand and operational impact, but a test does not guarantee a permanent release. We will update this guide if Chick-fil-A publishes a broader launch.
