If you’ve never tried the Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit, you’re missing one of the South’s most popular fast-food breakfast sandwiches. A crispy, Cajun-seasoned chicken filet meets a soft, buttery biscuit – first bite is all crunch and pepper, and by the second the biscuit’s butteriness takes over and mellows the heat into something closer to comfort food. Spice, crunch, and comfort in one warm handful.
The Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit isn’t a light breakfast. It’s filling, salty, buttery, and bold – exactly why people order it when they want something with more punch than a plain biscuit.
This Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit guide covers price and calories for both the standalone biscuit and the combo, allergens, ingredients, taste, customization, and how it stacks up against the regular chicken biscuit. Browse the breakfast menu with prices for the full morning lineup.

Cajun Filet Biscuit Combo: Price, What’s Included & Calories
Most people don’t order the biscuit alone – the Cajun Filet Biscuit® Combo is the more popular pick, and it’s built for anyone who wants a full meal rather than just the sandwich. Here’s what’s in it and what it costs.
Combo Price
| Item | Price Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cajun Filet Biscuit Combo | $9.25 – $11.50 | Includes the biscuit, one side, one drink |
| Large Combo Upgrade | +$1.20 – $1.60 | Larger side and/or drink |
| Delivery Apps (DoorDash, Uber Eats) | Typically $1–3 higher | Platform markup applies on top of menu price |
Bojangles prices by location rather than nationally, so confirm the exact total on your local app or menu before ordering.
What's Included
The combo comes in three parts: the Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit itself, your choice of side, and a medium drink. Sweet tea, unsweetened iced tea, lemonade, coffee, or soda are the usual drink options – coffee and unsweet tea keep the meal lighter, while sweet tea, lemonade, and soda add roughly 100–200 extra calories from sugar.
Combo Calories & Nutrition
The full combo runs 830–1,130 calories depending on your side, drink, sauces, and add-ons:
| Nutrient | Per Combo |
|---|---|
| Calories | 830–1,130 kcal |
| Total Fat | 44g–46g |
| Saturated Fat | 14g–15g |
| Trans Fat | 0.8g–1g |
| Cholesterol | ~100mg |
| Sodium | 1,850mg–1,900mg |
| Total Carbohydrates | 70g–72g |
| Fiber | 3g–4g |
| Sugars | 5g–6g |
| Protein | 29g–30g |
The side and drink you pick move these numbers more than anything else in the order. To keep the combo lighter: choose unsweetened tea or coffee, pick a lower-calorie side, skip extra sauce, and skip the large upgrade.
Allergens
Listed allergens for the Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit: milk, soy, and wheat. Bojangles also notes that shared kitchen equipment means items may have cross-contact with eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, fish, shellfish, and sesame, even when not listed as direct ingredients. If you have a serious allergy, confirm directly with your local restaurant – Bojangles does not guarantee any item is fully allergen-free.
Is It Gluten-Free?
No. Both the buttermilk biscuit and the breaded chicken filet are made with wheat flour, and Bojangles’ nutrition guide flags wheat as an allergen for this item. Cross-contact in shared fryers and prep surfaces is also possible. If you have celiac disease or a serious gluten sensitivity, this isn’t a safe choice unless your local location can confirm otherwise.
Ingredients
Cajun Chicken Filet
A breaded, fried white-meat chicken breast filet, seasoned with a Cajun-style spice blend that typically includes paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and other savory spices. The seasoned flour breading is what gives it that shatter-crisp bite.
Buttermilk Biscuit
Made from wheat flour, buttermilk, butter or shortening, baking powder, salt, and a touch of sugar. It’s the biscuit’s mild sweetness and soft crumb that tames the chicken’s heat – without it, the sandwich would eat a lot sharper.
Taste, Texture, and Aroma
Flavor-wise, the Bojangles Cajun Chicken Filet Biscuit lands salty, peppery, buttery, and savory in that order. The Cajun seasoning brings warm spice notes – think paprika, garlic, black pepper, mild cayenne – but this lands as medium heat, not a mouth-burner. If you like black pepper and paprika-forward seasoning, this will land well.
Texturally, it’s a real contrast: shatter-crisp breading on the outside, tender chicken underneath, and a soft, slightly crumbly biscuit holding it together. Fresh out of the kitchen, the smell alone – warm biscuit dough plus peppery Cajun spice – makes it feel heartier than a standard breakfast sandwich before you’ve even taken a bite.
