This question has been on the minds of many people since the chain announced in 2016 that it would be opening a restaurant in the Big Apple. Now, according to Eater, the wait is over – Chick-Fil-A is opening in Manhattan in the fall of 2018.
This will be the chain’s first location in the city, and it will be located at 346 West 46th Street. It will be a standalone fast-food restaurant, and it is expected to employ around 100 people.
While this news may come as a surprise to some, it makes sense given that Chick-Fil-A has been expanding rapidly in the city over the past few years. In 2016, it opened a location in Queens, and in 2017, it opened a location in Brooklyn.
While this location will be the chain’s first in Manhattan, it’s not the only one that’s in the works. Chick-Fil-A is also planning to open a location in midtown Manhattan in 2019.
So, while Chick-Fil-A isn’t coming to every corner of New York City just yet, it’s definitely on the rise, and it looks like it’s only going to get bigger and better.
