The location\u2019s menu features core items that are delivered primarily through third-party platforms. While the Miami unit\u2019s breakfast menu is smaller than at a traditional restaurant, it will serve its Chick-N-Minis all day long. Hours are Monday through Saturday, 10:30 a.m. to midnight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">\u201cWe know how important fast and reliable delivery is to Wynwood, and we want to meet the community where they are while keeping our signature hospitality,\u201d Overby said in a statement. \u201cBeing born and raised in Miami, serving this community is very special to me. Our new delivery kitchen location gives us the opportunity to serve the Wynwood community in a way that works best for them and gives me the privilege to deepen my connection with my hometown.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-component=\"related-article\" class=\"RelatedArticle\">Related:<a class=\"RelatedArticle-RelatedContent\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nrn.com\/quick-service\/raising-cane-s-luckin-coffee-world-cup-2026\" target=\"_self\" data-discover=\"true\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Raising Cane\u2019s, Luckin Coffee, World Cup 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"ContentParagraph ContentParagraph_align_left\" data-testid=\"content-paragraph\">A Miami native, Overby has spent the past five years as a local owner-operator within the Chick-fil-A system.
