Full Chick-fil-A menu revealed as popular US food chain announces first UK locations where it will open restaurants
Chick-fil-A is heading to the UK and the menu is looking pretty good, as long as you love chicken.
The American fast-food chain - with 2,973 locations across the US, Canada and Puerto Rico - announced that there'll be restaurants opening 'throughout the UK' very soon.
KFC currently dominates the fried chicken scene in the UK, but with the likes of Popeye's and now Chick-fil-A coming over, Colonel Sanders might have to watch out.

Though I doubt Mr Sanders will be massively concerned with 928 stores in our ends.
Far from a KFC rip off, however, Chick-fil-A was founded in 1967 by Truett Cathy in Atlanta, Georgia, and is known for its high-quality chicken sandwiches and special sauce.
Chief International Officer at Chick-fil-A, Anita Costello, told The Sun: "Serving communities is at the heart of everything we do, and we look forward to bringing Chick-fil-A's delicious food and signature hospitality to Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool and London, and continuing our long-term investment in the UK.
"From job creation to supporting local causes, we are excited about the positive impact our first restaurants will have in the communities they serve."
They plan to cross over to the UK next year.
So what can we expect from Chick-fil-A, well take a look at their menu.
Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
This is the sandwich that made Chick-fil-A famous, consisting of a breaded and seasoned chicken breast filet served on a buttered bun with dill pickle slices.
Sounds simple, but it's their most popular menu item.
Chick-fil-A Nuggets
If you fancy a change from Maccies' nuggets, here are bite-sized pieces of boneless, breaded chicken breast, seasoned, then pressure-cooked in peanut oil.
There are normally eight or 12 in a portion.
Spicy Chicken Sandwich
Those Nando's hot sauce lovers might want to opt for a spicier version of the original sandwich.
Waffle Potato Fries
It's hard to go wrong with crispy, criss-cross fries, which are made from real potatoes, serving as side dish with any sandwich or nuggets.
Chick-fil-A Sauce
Perhaps what makes the fast-food chain stand out from the crowd is its signature sauce, consisting of a combination of honey mustard, barbecue sauce, and ranch, for a tangy and sweet flavour.
Grilled Chicken Sandwich
If fried food isn't really your style, then there is an healthier alternative sandwich with a marinated, grilled chicken breast served on a multigrain bun with lettuce and tomato.
Chick-n-Strips
The strips are breaded and fried with your choice of dipping sauce.
Mac & Cheese
Chick-fil-A’s creamy mac and cheese is made with blend of cheeses, like cheddar, parmesan, and romano.
Chicken Biscuit
The popular breakfast item consists of a seasoned chicken filet inside a buttery biscuit.
Lemonade
Chick-fil-A's lemonade is made with just three ingredients: lemons, water, and sugar, giving it a refreshing taste.
Frosted Lemonade
A mix of their lemonade and vanilla Icedream (yes, Icedream), creating a sweet and tart milkshake-like treat.
Icedream Cone
Chick-fil-A's soft-serve vanilla dessert could satisfy that sweet tooth.
So, are we looking forward to Chick-fil-A landing in the UK?
