Quick update: Ate there for lunch today. Walked into the restroom and a man who I’m pretty sure was the manager (Oxford shirt, tie, and an apron of all things) walks in behind me and starts wiping down the floors with his bare hands and napkins. Just bent over at the waist going to town. Then he proceeded to clean countertops and the toilet next. The manager of all people!

We’re all very lucky to have Chick Fil A in our lives

With the exception of College Dr. & MofLA all the CFA's in BR are owned by the same family.

Seigen & Airline are owned by the dad & Gonzales is owned by the son, who used to own the Mall location but I believe sold it.

Have God first and treat your employees like co-owners and you can have this result.

Oh.. and don’t hire people that aren’t qualified.

One time I had to wait at my table for what had to be 3 minutes. Employee came 3 times before I got my meal and while I was eating saying she was so sorry and offered me a free meal.

Chic-fil-a, where 15 cars in the drive thru go faster than 4 cars do at McDonalds.

If Chick Fil A and Disney would take over all Customer Service imagine how much better shite would be at all levels.

All Chick-Fil-A's are owned by the Truett Cathy family. Nobody sold nothing, they paid $10K for the Cathy's to let them operate each store location.
There are no independently owned Chick-Fil-A's. You Can't Own a Chick-fil-A Franchise.

no they're not.

Also, Chick-fil-A states on their site:

"This is not the right opportunity for you if you:

Are seeking a passive investment in a business.
Want to sell property to Chick-fil-A, Inc.
Are requesting that Chick-fil-A, Inc. build at a specified location.
Are seeking multi-unit franchise opportunities."

So, one family doesn't operate all the Chick-Fil-A's in BR.

So the guy who has season tickets behind mine, that operates 4 of them, that told me there are actually a few that are owned, like the one in Manhattan, he wasnt telling the truth?

The three-story, 5,000-square-foot restaurant will be Chick-fil-A’s largest in the country and will be independently owned and operated by local resident Oscar Fittipaldi.

Popeyes is better



The last time I went to Popeyes they upped their game up a little. The guy who took my order asked if he could take my order with enthusiasm.

It threw me off because I am used to "can I take your order?" once you place your order then you get "okay drive to the window".

When I went to the window he actually double checked by making sure I said I wanted BBQ sauce and threw in two extra in the bag. Then thanked me.

Chick-fil-a is making everyone up their game.

Did you say yes or just tell him to do it the normal way?

Like Kevin Young? Yeah, he is the Franchisee-Owner/Operator of Manhatten's fifth Chick-fil-a. You should should look up what Franchisee-Owner/Operator means at Chick-fil-a.
You will notice that Oscar is also referred to as a Franchisee-Owner/Operator. All Chick-fil-a's are run by Franchisee-Owner/Operator, who all paid their $10k and all went through Chick-fil-a training. And when they die or retire, the resturant is still owned by the Cathys.
So yeah, Oscar lied to you, but probably more through omission than deceit.
Here is an article about Oscar and his Chick-fil-a.
here

TL:DR he don't own shite.

There are no independently owned Chick-fil-a's and no operator operates more than one store at a time. That's SOP, for everyone. Sorry to crap on your humble brag.
