Chick-fil-A Breakfast Menu & Hours (2026)

What time does Chick-fil-A stop serving breakfast?

Chick-fil-A stops serving breakfast at 10:30 a.m., and the lunch menu starts at that same minute. Breakfast is offered Monday through Saturday only, because every restaurant is closed on Sunday.

The company's minimum schedule opens stores at 6:30 a.m., and many open at 6. The Plano Parkway store in Texas, for example, lists 6 a.m. on its store page, while Peachtree City, Georgia, lists 6:30 a.m. That gives you a breakfast window of about four to four and a half hours, depending on your store.

A few things to know about the cutoff:

• The switch is firm. Biscuits, Chick-n-Minis, muffins, hash browns and the scramble bowls and burritos leave the board at 10:30 a.m.
• Some items stay all day. The Berry Parfait, fruit cup, hot coffee and iced coffee are tagged as all-day items in Chick-fil-A's ordering data, so you can still get them after breakfast ends.
• Airport, campus and mall units can differ. Check the store page or the Chick-fil-A App, which shows what your chosen restaurant is serving at that moment.

What is on the Chick-fil-A breakfast menu?

The Chick-fil-A breakfast menu has about a dozen entrées built mostly around a breakfast-size chicken filet, plus hash browns, fruit and parfaits. Here is how it breaks down.

• Chicken biscuits. A breaded breakfast filet on a buttermilk biscuit, in original or spicy.
• Chick-n-Minis. Four bite-size nuggets tucked into mini yeast rolls brushed with honey butter.
• Egg White Grill. Grilled chicken, egg whites and American cheese on a toasted English muffin.
• Egg-and-cheese sandwiches. Chicken, bacon or sausage with folded egg and American cheese, on a biscuit or an English muffin.
• Hash Brown Scramble Burrito and Bowl. Scrambled eggs, hash browns and a Monterey Jack and Cheddar blend, with nuggets, sausage, a grilled filet, spicy chicken, bacon or no meat. You can also skip the hash browns, which lowers the price by about $1.
• Sides. Hash browns in small or large, a fruit cup and the Berry Parfait with granola or cookie crumbs.
• À la carte. A plain buttery biscuit, English muffin, breakfast waffle, or a single breakfast filet, sausage patty or bacon.

Any entrée can become a meal with hash browns (or a parfait) and a drink. The table below shows typical prices and official calories.

How much is Chick-fil-A breakfast?

Most Chick-fil-A breakfast entrées cost $3.69 to $5.65 on their own, and a breakfast meal runs about $6.89 to $9.65 at most stores. Those figures come from the chain's ordering menus at eight stores in six states, read in late October 2026.

The Chicken Biscuit is the cheapest chicken item at about $3.69 to $4.19, and the bacon or sausage egg-and-cheese biscuits start near $3.99. A Chicken Biscuit meal with hash browns and a drink ran $6.89 to $7.69 at most stores we checked. A 4-count Chick-n-Minis meal ran $7.89 to $8.85.

The hash brown scramble items all cost the same no matter which protein you choose, about $4.99 to $5.65. The limited-time Chicken & Waffles Breakfast Sandwich is the priciest entrée at up to $6.19. Mall, airport and big-city stores tend to sit at the top of each range. The full price list for the rest of the day is on our Chick-fil-A menu page.

Which Chick-fil-A breakfast items are lowest in calories or highest in protein?

The Egg White Grill is the best balance on the breakfast menu, with 300 calories and 27 grams of protein. The Hash Brown Scramble Bowl with a grilled filet and no hash browns is even leaner at 270 calories and 29 grams of protein.

At the other end, the Sausage, Egg & Cheese Biscuit is the heaviest standard item at 620 calories and 42 grams of fat. A small order of hash browns adds 270 calories, and a large adds 420, which is easy to miss when you order a meal.

Some simple swaps:

• Pick an English muffin over a biscuit. The Chicken, Egg & Cheese Muffin has 410 calories against 550 for the biscuit version.
• Choose the fruit cup (70 calories for a medium) instead of hash browns.
• Get the scramble bowl instead of the burrito if you want fewer carbs from the tortilla.

All figures come from Chick-fil-A's Nutrition & Allergens page. Our Chick-fil-A nutrition guide covers the rest of the menu.

Is the Chicken & Waffles Breakfast Sandwich still available?

Yes, for now. The Chicken & Waffles Breakfast Sandwich was still listed as a limited-time item at all eight stores we checked on Oct. 27, 2026, priced at about $5.09 to $6.19.

It arrived nationwide on Aug. 24, 2026 as part of the fall lineup. The breakfast version uses a smaller filet than the all-day sandwich, plus three strips of bacon and a honey butter spread, sandwiched in a maple-flavored waffle with syrup on the side. You can pick an original, spicy or grilled filet. The original and spicy versions have 530 calories each, and the grilled one has 440.

Chick-fil-A has not posted an end date. Because it is seasonal, expect it to disappear without much notice, and check the app if you are heading in for it.

Does Chick-fil-A give away free breakfast?

Sometimes, but only as short promotions for Chick-fil-A One members. The most recent nationwide one ran Feb. 17 to Feb. 28, 2026, when members could claim one free Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit in the app and redeem it before the 10:30 a.m. breakfast cutoff, while supplies lasted.

We did not find a free breakfast offer running at the end of October 2026. The steady way to get free food is the Chick-fil-A One rewards program, where points from qualifying purchases turn into menu items. Our fast food rewards apps comparison shows how much the program pays back.

Promotions like this show up in the app's rewards tab, not as printed coupons, so be wary of coupon codes passed around online.

How do you order Chick-fil-A breakfast for a group?

For a group, Chick-fil-A catering sells Chick-n-Minis trays of 20 (serves 5) or 40 (serves 10) during breakfast hours, plus chicken biscuits, parfaits and fruit cups in larger quantities.

The chain says all restaurants can take catering orders with 24 hours' notice, and many need less. Boxed catering coffee holds 96 ounces, or eight servings. Order through the app or website, pick a pickup or delivery time, and you avoid the 10:30 a.m. rush at the counter. See our Chick-fil-A catering guide for tray sizes and prices.
