Chicken Salad Flavors at Chicken Salad Chick

The flavors are named like the women who inspired them, and regulars tend to have a standing favorite. Classic Carol is the plain original. Fancy Nancy brings fruit and pecans, Buffalo Barclay brings the heat, and Lauryn's Lemon Basil is the bright one. If you cannot decide, build a plate around any of them. The scoops also hold up well in the fridge, which is why the take home containers sell as fast as the plates do.

If it is your first visit, start with Classic Carol and one dressed up flavor side by side. That pair tells you almost everything about how this kitchen seasons, and the rest of the case makes sense from there.

Permanent or rotating? The twelve flavors in the grid above never leave the case. Nine more rotate through as limited time offers, and they are collected on the seasonal flavors page with their calories. If a flavor you loved has disappeared, it has rotated out rather than been dropped for good. Format changes the experience too: the same scoop eaten straight with crackers, pressed into a sandwich or spread over a green salad is effectively three different lunches, which is why regulars argue about format as much as flavor.

Choosing your first flavor: start from what you already like. Plain and classic points to Classic Carol. Fruity points to Fruity Fran or Fancy Nancy. Heat points to Buffalo Barclay first and Jalapeño Holly when you mean it. Rich and savory points to Sassy Scotty, the ranch and bacon build. After the first visit, most people settle into a rotation of two or three, and the case is built for exactly that habit.

Every dish above links to its own page with its price, calories and allergens in one place. Prices can differ a little between restaurants, so treat this page as the plan and the menu board as the final word.
