I wish I could stomach their food. Way too salty, unfortunately.

You could stop by and grab a drink from time to time.

I agree. I love the food they sell but it is at least 10 miles further than McD’s and Burger King so of course they are visited more by my family (when we eat that type of crap). In the last year, we have went to Chick-fil-A one time and went to the others about five times.

Their deserts are awesome with no salt. Just go for the deserts.

Chick-fil-A also gave my daughters their first jobs. All three of them are productive worker bees. While they were still in college, they had a holiday job waiting for them every time they came home for a visit.

The Chick-fil-A where they worked somehow managed to get the nicest kids in town to work for them, and not a single illegal alien. During the combined five years over which my daughters worked for them, you could count on the fingers of one hand the number of kids which got fired. Generally, it was a jag-off who managed to hide their attitude just long enough to get hired. Other than those, it was only kids who consistently failed to show up for work.

Unfortunately, all restaurant food has way too much sodium, IMHO. As fast food goes, however, Chick fil a isn't all that bad in terms of taste and quality. And the employees are dedicated to customer service...as opposed to McDonalds, for example. McDonalds is so bad, they can even screw up a salad. And the employees would rather chat among themselves than wait on you.

True story: Once at McDonalds, I ordered a chicken salad. I specified grilled chicken, not fried. The employee was so busy yapping with her co-worker, she had to ask me twice if I wanted grilled or fried chicken. Finally, the salad arrived, and...you guessed it...the chicken was fried . Never had that problem at Chick fil a. Staff is courteous, helpful and professional. And the food doesn't give me indigestion.

Oh, that is too bad.
The spicy chicken sandwich is fantastic.
It makes me sweat.

What planet do you occupy?? Chick-fil-A has great food, and they are always busy with a line at the drive-in. As another responder suggested, order one of their great salads or a tasty shake if you insist that their sandwiches are "way too salty."

That’s a problem I have. I want to support them but I’m not crazy about the food.

I remember the first time I had one of their chicken sandwiches;
two pieces of bread, a piece of bland chicken and a slice of pickle. Are you kidding me? People are standing in line (actually sitting in cars) to buy that overpriced bland junk?
Guess so, the do booming business here in DFW.
Not getting my cash, I have not been back since sometime in the mid 90’s.

I carry a small card in my wallet with the NorCal store locations so I can stop by in my travels.

The closest is Fairfield CA, a 45 minute drive across two toll bridges. Fortunately, they will open another much closer to me soon.

I find their food good on the whole, but don't have a lot of experience because of the distance. I will certainly pay attention and suggest a lower salt option, if necessary, I really should watch the salt myself.

I can handle salt but their chicken has too much chicken in it and I hates chicken.
