I’m a sucker for a good chicken sandwich.
I cook almost every meal at home and I never fry anything. Frying is really messy, oil is super expensive, and frying is just not that great for you. So when I go out to eat, I like to order fried food because it’s a treat.
So, let me tell you how excited I am that there’s a National Fried Chicken Sandwich Day. Like yes, celebrate my dining out order. It’s on November 9, which is a Saturday this year. Making it really easy. Just stop somewhere when you’re out and about running errands.
In honor of the day, a bunch of fast-casual and fast-food chains are having deals. To make it easier for you to decide where to go, I put together this list of National Fried Chicken Sandwich Day deals. Scroll through them, see what makes the most sense for your location and your wallet, and head there for a treat.
Also, quick note: We kept this list of national and large regional chains. Your favorite local restaurant may be offering a special deal for today, but if we listed every restaurant, this list would be too long.
National Fried Chicken Sandwich Day isn’t the only time popular restaurants have free food and special deals.

Fast-Food Chicken Sandwich Rankings:
I wasn’t joking when I told you I’m a big fan of a fried chicken sandwich. A few years ago, my dad, brother, and I went on a “chicken crawl” where we bought a bunch of spicy chicken sandwiches, tried them out, and ranked them for our post: The Best Fast Food Chicken Sandwich Rankings.
If you’re trying to decide where to eat today, that list may help.
More Fast Food Fried Chicken Sandwiches:
For fried chicken sandwich lovers who need some more fried chicken in their lives, don’t sleep on Dave’s Hot Chicken. The hot chicken is so good. And (dare I say it here?) the not chicken (which breaded, fried cauliflower) is amazing.
If you like heat, Al’s Hot Chicken, which is similar to Dave’s, is for you. It’s so, so hot. It made Dave’s seem cool in comparison.
And if you’re not about heat, but you’re about convenience, stop by and try Royal Farms Chicken on your next road trip. The gas station boasts that it has world famous chicken and honestly, it’s really good.
