The chain decided to zhuzh up its grilled chicken sandwiches with a limited-time offer that rolled out in January. Meet the Grilled Spicy Deluxe, which features a grilled chicken breast rubbed with Chick-fil-A's spicy seasoning on a multigrain bun with tomato, lettuce, and cheese. What makes this better-for-you chicken sandwich noteworthy is the brand new Cilantro Lime Sauce, which is specifically designed to cool off your taste buds. Try one with your choice of cheese for less than $6, while supplies last.

If Chick-fil-A is your breakfast destination of choice, you'll soon find some options missing from the morning menu. The company recently confirmed it will be getting rid of bagels and decaf hot coffee as it streamlines menu options in the coming months. However, you may be happy to know that contrary to popular belief, the chain is still serving this beloved breakfast item, rumored to have been discontinued in 2016.

Fewer Size Options

Streamlining the menu also means rethinking the sizes of several items. Starting sometime this spring, the Nuggets Kid's Meal, which currently comes with four or six pieces of chicken, will only be available in a five-piece option, while various sizes of coffee drinks, ice cream cones, and milkshakes will also be narrowed down.

A New Dessert Option
