Finding it
Chick-Fil-A is in Across Gate E-2 (post-security) in Central Terminal at Miami International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
Central Terminal has 32 places to eat and 31 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 4am.
Hours against the security queue
Across the week, MIA security runs longest around 5pm at a median of 16 minutes, and lightest around 11pm at 2 minutes.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's MIA wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
It sits directly across Gate E-2, past security, wedged between Jackson Soul Food and QUORE Gelato in that stretch of Concourse E. Doors open at 5am, ahead of the first bank of E-concourse departures, and the counter runs until 11pm, covering most evening arrivals looking for something hot before the terminal quiets down. There's no second Chick-Fil-A anywhere at MIA, so this gate is the only place in the airport to get one. Close enough to Skittles Remix and the gelato counter that a group who each want something different can split up and still meet back at the same three gates.
Other options in Central Terminal
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
