Vows to block eatery over anti-gay attitude... Mayor Thomas M. Menino is vowing to block Chick-fil-A from bringing its Southern-fried fast-food empire to Boston possibly to a popular tourist spot just steps from the Freedom Trail after the family-owned firms president suggested gay marriage is inviting Gods judgment on our nation.
Chick-fil-A doesnt belong in Boston. You cant have a business in the city of Boston that discriminates against a population. Were an open city, were a city thats at the forefront of inclusion, Menino told the Herald yesterday.
Thats the Freedom Trail. Thats where it all started right here. And were not going to have a company, Chick-fil-A or whatever the hell the name is, on our Freedom Trail.

And when you order from them, the person taking the order actually speaks English clearly.
Try their Chargrilled n Fruit salad, with Berry Viniagrette dressing.
It's my 10 YO's favorite fast food. He prefers the 8 nugget meal, and their nuggets are from breast meat, unlike McDonald's.
The service is always outstanding.
Open memo to Mayor Menino: I've been planning a trip to Boston for vacation next year. I just changed my plans. Boston will never see any of my money as long as you are in office.
I thought they didn't like fish.
We like it, although I’m not that partial to chicken sandwiches in general. Their fries are good when they’re hot (not always the case), and the chicken salad, the cole slaw, and their lemonades (regular and diet) are excellent! Our son-in-law really likes their milk shakes.
Their employees are usually polite and friendly, and they have special activities for kids on Tuesday evenings. Our CFA plays contemporary Christian music in the restaurant which is OK with us, but may bother some.
Were you guys in the majority, and what kind of bar is it?
They also sell a LOT of chicken biscuits at schools. My kids would save part of their allowance to buy one on Chick Fil A day.
Interesting that a city that was founded by Christians to be a “City on a Hill” and the “New Jerusalem” is now Sodom and Gomorrah.
Sir, with all due respect, there are thousands of Christians who live here and are trying to fight the good fight. Please keep this in mind, and pray for us. thanks for your concern.
There are two Chick-Fil-A’s near Boston, about 30-40 minutes out. Also, don’t forget that there are thousands of non-libs here too. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
