What is Chick-Fil-A?

Chick-fil-A is an American fast food restaurant chain headquartered in College Park, Georgia, specializing in chicken sandwiches. Founded in 1946, it operates over 2,600 restaurants, primarily in the United States. Chick-fil-A is notable for its headquarters closing on Sundays, which its founder Truett Cathy said was to allow employees to attend church services.

Chick-fil-A has a strong corporate culture focused on hospitality and customer service. All Chick-fil-A restaurants are closed for business on Sundays, one of the few big fast food chains to do so. This is so employees can have a day to rest and worship if they choose. The chain's policy is to never open on Sunday.

The first Chick-fil-A opened in Atlanta's Greenbriar Shopping Center in 1967. During the 1970s and early 1980s, the chain expanded by opening new standalone locations. The first Chick-fil-A outside a mall opened in Atlanta in 1986. The first location outside Georgia opened in 1994.
