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.
