Chick-fil-A is pulling a seasonal favorite from its menus — but some lucky diners in certain cities may still have a chance to order it.

The chain's Chicken & Waffles sandwiches are leaving most menus on Nov. 14, or while supplies last, but select restaurants in Tampa, Chicago and Raleigh will keep serving a breakfast version as the chain tests four additional waffle sandwiches.

The nationwide limited-time offering debuted in August after a test run in 2025, pairing the chain's chicken filet with maple-flavored waffles, applewood smoked bacon, honey butter spread and syrup.

"We've loved seeing how much our guests enjoyed Chicken & Waffles this fall, especially the breakfast sandwich," Allison Duncan, Chick-fil-A's director of menu and packaging, told QSR.

But beginning Nov. 16, participating restaurants in the three cities will offer the Chicken & Waffles Breakfast Sandwich with an Original, Spicy or Grilled filet, along with Chicken, Egg & Cheese; Bacon, Egg & Cheese; Sausage, Egg & Cheese; and Grilled Chicken, Bacon, Egg & Cheese waffle sandwiches. The test menu will be available during breakfast hours, until 10:30 a.m.

POPEYES BRINGS BACK POPULAR MENU ITEM FOR GOOD, AND NOT EVERYONE IS HAPPY

Chick-fil-A selects test markets based on opportunities to gather feedback from customers and local owner-operators, the company told Fox News Digital. The company did not identify participating restaurants but said individual locations typically share test-menu details on their social media pages.

Customers in the test cities can also check the Chick-fil-A app to see whether their local restaurant is participating.

Duncan said the company hopes the test will help it learn what customers want next. Chick-fil-A has not announced whether the expanded menu could come to more locations.

Online, fans are mourning the nationwide exit.

In a Reddit post about the exit, one person said, "I wish it would stay," adding, "I ordered it every time."

Another commenter called it "the only [limited-time offer] I've ever really liked." It was "the best breakfast sandwich in the game," the person said.

But others don't mind seeing the item go. Some Reddit users said the waffles were too dense or not soft enough to soak up the syrup, while others said they were excited that the limited-time item was making room for something new.

The chicken and waffles were part of a yearlong "Newstalgia"-inspired celebration, which the company said offered "a delicious twist on familiar favorites." Along with it came a s'mores milkshake and frosted coffee lineup, which are also ending on Nov. 14.

The menu change comes as Chick-fil-A's holiday lineup arrives Nov. 16. It includes a new Peppermint Cream Cold Brew, returning peppermint drinks and Chicken Tortilla Soup, along with Spicy Chick-fil-A Sauce, which is joining the nationwide menu permanently, Fox News Digital reported last month.
