Wendy’s is the latest fast-food restaurant getting in on the sandwich craze with its new classic chicken sandwich, and it’s giving it away for free.
A new spin on its previous Homestyle Chicken sandwich, the new Classic Chicken Sandwich is a juicer and crispier. Business Insider reported a Wendy’s statement said it has a “premium all-white meat chicken breast that is juicy and crispy," plus lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayonnaise on a toasted bun.
The same filet will be available for the chain’s Bacon Jalapeño Chicken Sandwich, Asiago Ranch Chicken Club and Pretzel Bacon Pub Chicken Sandwich, Today.com reported.
“Wendy’s fans can snag a free Classic Chicken Sandwich with purchase through November 8 via the Wendy’s Mobile App,” a Wendy’s representative told AJC.com. “Simply download the app and place a mobile order OR show the QR code from your mobile app in-restaurant to redeem your free sandwich.”
And the deal is being refreshed each week in the app, meaning customers can get two free chicken sandwiches before the end of the offer.
The sandwich itself is $4.99.
The fast-food chicken sandwich wars started in 2019, when Popeye’s had a successful run of its first-ever chicken sandwich, ultimately selling out completely before bringing back the menu item for good in regular and spicy offerings that November.
Church’s Chicken is also entering the fray. It introduced its new chicken sandwich, which comes with may and pickles on a brioche bun, Oct. 26. Like several other restaurants, there’s also a spicy version.
