Every flavor at Chicken Salad Chick is priced the same, so choosing Olivia's Old South costs no more than choosing the plainest option. What changes your bill is the format you buy, not the flavor.
What it actually tastes like
This is the flavor that tastes homemade. Sweet pickle and hard-boiled egg is the classic Southern church-potluck chicken salad formula, and Olivia's Old South is Chicken Salad Chick's version of it. The pickle gives it a sweet-sour edge that cuts the mayonnaise; the egg makes the texture softer and richer than the plain base.
If you grew up with someone who made chicken salad at home, this is the one that will taste familiar. It is consistently placed near the top of independent flavor rankings for exactly that reason.
How to order it
It works best in a sandwich rather than on lettuce — the softness wants bread around it. On white bread with lettuce and tomato as The Chick, at around $8.99, is the standard order. It is also a strong choice for catering platters, because it appeals broadly and contains no nuts.
