The chain's popular potato cakes are returning for a limited time, beginning July 1.
The side item will be available to order in two, three or four piece offerings.
'The glorious and mighty Potato Cake has returned,' the company said in a statement.
'Rejoice and celebrate with The Order of Potato Cakes before they ascend and vanish.'

The company heralded the return of the potato cake with an advert featuring actor Kyle Maclachlan begging for the item at one of its iconic drive-thrus.
The return comes after McDonald's US president Joe Erlinger revealed last week that the popular McRib sandwich would be making a comeback.
The McRib, a seasoned boneless pork dipped in tangy BBQ sauce and topped with chopped onions and pickles, will return to America later this year.
The sandwich has been dropped and then added back to the menu dozens of times over the years.
The fan favorite debuted nationally in the US in 1982 but was discontinued in 1985 after low sales.
It then returned in 1989 and was broadly available in the US and other countries until 2005.
It was then periodically reintroduced until disappearing again in 2012 for eight years.
It didn't return until December 2020, when it came back once again for a limited time.
