Last year, the popular US chain announced it would be opening five locations across the UK.
These restaurants are the first to be opened outside of the US, and can be found in Belfast, Liverpool, Leeds, and London.
But don't worry if you don't live near one of these cities, because you can now recreate that Chick-fil-A magic at home.
One eagle-eyed shopper spotted the brand's iconic sauce on the shelf of a popular retailer.
"New Chick-fil-A sauce at Home Bargains," the Facebook user captioned a picture of the product.
And if the Home Bargains buy isn't enough to hold you over until you can get your hands on the real thing, why not plan out your order now?
The Sun's Money team previously visited Chick-fil-A headquarters in Atlanta to test out all the menu items on offer.
According to them, Chick-fil-A's signature fan favourite - the Original Chicken Sandwich - "reinvents" what you may be used to when choosing a fast food main.
Meanwhile, the original chicken Chick-fil-A sandwich contains a freshly breaded boneless breast of chicken, pressure cooked in 100% refined peanut oil and served on a toasted bun with dill pickle chips.
In fact, all of the items cooked in the chain's fryers are done so in refined peanut oil - but don't panic if you are allergic to nuts.
COMING SOON: US Fast Food Chains Invade the UK!
The peanut oil is refined, bleached and deodorized, which means the proteins which can trigger a reaction, are stripped out during the processing.
Reporters for the Money team described the chicken sandwich as "unparalleled if compared to similar items available at McDonald's or KFC".
"What I loved about taking a bite was realising how fresh and unprocessed the chicken breast meat was," one reporter said.
"Unlike chicken patties from other fast food chains, the meat at Chick-fil-A seemed to break away just like it would if you were cooking your own chicken breast at home.
"Knowing it isn't ultra-processed makes the whole sandwich taste even better."
When is Chick-fil-A coming to the UK?
Chick-fil-A is set to open its first UK site in early 2025 and then up to five in the following two years.
The move comes after Chick-fil-A opened a temporary pop-up branch in Reading in 2019.
However, the town centre restaurant shut after its six-month lease expired in 2020.
It came after controversy around comments by the company's then-chief executive, Dan Cathy, opposing same-sex marriage.
While we don't know where Chick-fil-A plans to open its new UK restaurants just yet, the company told The Sun that they will be strategically located across the UK to give everyone access to the brand.
The chain's most popular menu items, including the original Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich, nuggets, waffle fries, and spicy deluxe chicken sandwich, will all appear on UK high streets in 2025.
The new Belfast branch first opened its doors on Thursday, March 27, at the Applegreen Templepatrick Services on the outskirts of the city.
Meanwhile the locations in Britain have yet to announce official opening dates.
Chick-fil-A did reveal plans to expand further into the European market.
The company also shared its intention to open stores in Asia by 2030.

He was a vintage car fanatic and had competed in the iconic Monte Carlo Classic rally. His paternal grandfather founded the wine empire Frederick Wildman & Sons, which to this day turns over hundreds of millions of pounds a year exporting wines and champagne from France to the US. Tarik's British mother, the late Hon Corinna Cunliffe, was a celebrated fashion magazine editor and the daughter of a baron. She is pictured in three portraits hanging in the National Portrait Gallery. He was married to Susan O'Reilly, daughter of the late Sir Anthony O'Reilly - from one of Ireland's most prominent families.

Morgan Stanley CEO 'super pumped' as deal pipelines stay resilient
NEW YORK, June 10 (Reuters) - Morgan Stanley CEO Ted Pick told investors on Tuesday he expected the Wall Street bank to have a strong end to the quarter after U.S. tariff announcements paused activity in April. "I'm super pumped up about the businesses," Pick said at an annual financial conference hosted by his bank. Dealmaking and the calendar for equity capital markets are picking up, while deal discussions have stayed resilient and become more active in some areas, he added. Morgan Stanley is the lead underwriter of financial technology company Chime's initial public offering, which is expected to close later this week and raise as much as $832 million. The bank also led IPOs for Hinge Health, raising $437.3 million, and marketing tech firm MNTN, which raised $187.2 million, in May. "We had maximum tariff volatility through the first half of the quarter," he said, adding deals were paused through April and part of May. That has been changing over the last weeks. On M&A, Morgan Stanley advised financial firm TJC in the sale of Silvus Technologies to Motorola for $5 billion and AT&T on the $5.75 billion acquisition of Lumen Technologies' consumer fiber operations. Pick also cited the bank's role in advising Toyota's special board committee on the proposal to take the company private. The Morgan Stanley CEO said changes in the banking regulatory framework would be welcome, and that if rules to calculate the supplementary leverage ratio, known as SLR, change, the bank may be able to analyze potential acquisitions. Pick has been one of the most optimistic CEOs during market volatility after the announcement of tariffs. While presenting strong first-quarter profit in April, he said he was "cautiously optimistic that we won't go into recession". Morgan Stanley reported record equity trading revenue in the first quarter, with a 45% jump from a year earlier. Pick took the helm as CEO a year and a half ago, and last month also became chairman of the board as former Chairman and CEO James Gorman left the bank. Gorman had turned Morgan Stanley into a wealth management behemoth during his tenure, raising the bank's profits and turning results more predictable. Last March, Morgan Stanley began laying off 2,000 employees, around 3% of its global workforce, to improve operational efficiency. The bank followed decisions by Wall Street rivals to cut jobs to prepare for a potential downturn.
