5 Secret Menu Items You Didn’t Know Existed

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UNCW chapter.

Next time you’re at any of these chains, give one of their “secret” menu options a go.

1. Chipotle’s Burritodilla/Quesarito

Yeah, that’s right. It’s a Chipotle burrito with your favorite fillings, but it’s also a quesadilla. Mind = blown.

2. Subway Pizza Sandwich

This is more about customization than anything. Order your sandwich on Italian bread and fill it with provolone and marinara sauce in addition to your favorite pizza toppings! Make sure to get that thang TOASTED.

3. Starbucks

There isn’t any specific secret item from Starbucks that makes this list. Instead, there are about 200+ secret menu recipes on this website you can bring to a Starbucks barista to make for you. This is where the Starbucks “Pink Drink” found its origins.

4. Chick-Fil-A Spicy Chicken, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit

Chick-Fil-A is arguably one of the best places to hit up for a quality breakfast, so this secret menu item is just what the world needs. Just order as is– they’ll know what you mean. Thanks to #HacktheMenu for this one!

5. McDonald’s All American Burger

If you want a lower-cal secret menu option, order an “All American” burger from McDonald’s. It’s basically a normal burger but without the cheese! Bet you didn’t know it had a fancy name though, did you?
