I’ve been to Chick Fil A’s as far north as Erie, PA, all down the south including Charlotte, NC, to Savannah, GA, all the way to Tampa, FL.
And one thing that I can say is that they’ve definitely instilled their southern hospitality (since they are based in Atlanta) in all of their locations. Didn’t matter if it was in Erie or Tampa, each request was granted with “My pleasure” and a big smile.
It’s hard to fault some of the other franchises because any time you get to the level of having over 33,000 locations, like McDonalds, it’s difficult to instill a culture.
But Chick Fil A has done a fantastic job. I’m glad you’ve discovered it - and their food is phenomenal as well. Try the Chick-n-Minis for breakfast!
