Chick-fil-A to Close Its Only Experimental Menu Location in the Country; Convert to Traditional Chick-fil-A

1 Share

Little Blue Menu, Chick-fil-A’s experimental restaurant concept in College Park, MD, will close early next year and convert to a traditional Chick-fil-A, according to Streetcar Suburbs.

The restaurant, located at 7242 Baltimore Avenue, has operated for about three years and is currently the only Little Blue Menu location in the country. A second location in Nashville opened in 2021 and closed in 2023.

Little Blue Menu was created as a test-and-learn concept for Chick-fil-A, offering items not typically found at the chain’s standard restaurants. Its menu includes burgers, pizza, bone-in wings, onion rings and sweet potato tots alongside Chick-fil-A staples such as chicken sandwiches, nuggets and waffle fries.

According to Streetcar Suburbs, a restaurant representative said Little Blue Menu will remain open through early 2027 before converting to Chick-fil-A. The Little Blue Menu name is a reference to the blue menus used at Chick-fil-A founder Truett Cathy’s original restaurant in Hapeville, Georgia.

Earlier this year, local food blogger Nick “Mr. 8 That” Sevilla, a University of Maryland alumnus, visited the College Park location to try several of its unusual menu items.

During his visit, Mr. 8 That tried the mushroom Swiss burger, Chick-fil-A pizza, sweet potato tots, classic burger and East Heat bone-in wings. He gave the food a 3.5 out of 5 for taste and 4.1 out of 5 for price, for a final score of 7.6.

Mr. 8 That said the burger was one of the biggest surprises, describing it as tender for a fast-food burger, while the mushrooms still had a good bite. He said the Chick-fil-A pizza delivered familiar flavors but was somewhat dry without a base sauce, while the East Heat wings had a teriyaki-style flavor with a hint of lime.

Little Blue Menu did not reach Mr. 8 That’s threshold of 8 out of 10, but he said the restaurant is still worth visiting for Chick-fil-A fans interested in experiencing the chain’s one-of-a-kind test concept before it closes.
