A few months ago we reported the rumor that a Chick-fil-A was coming to DCUSA: a Virginia store operator said it was going to happen. I reached out to the company a few times and didn’t get a useful answer, but now it’s been officially confirmed: the Post reports the company tells them they will open at location in late Fall.
They’ll be taking over the old Lime Fresh Mex location next to Radio Shack (which is also closing, more on that to come.)
The company is also opening other locations in cities, like the Inner Harbor in Baltimore and 6th Avenue in Manhattan.
They’re also offering free chicken sandwiches each time the Nats record a save at home and already give them away if opposing players miss free throws in the 4th quarter against the Wizards.
This is good new for lovers of their sweet fried chicken sandwiches, tenders, waffle fries and Polynesian sauce, though I’ve heard there are many who will refuse to go because of the company leadership’s opposition to gay marriage.
I wrote up a list of LGBT organizations too, if you wanted to donate to them instead or in addition to eating at Chick-fil-A.
