The Atlanta-based brand will open in Kingston on Eden Street tomorrow (5 March) as part of its expansion plans for the UK.
The new restaurant joins the brand’s two licensed restaurants in Belfast and its first locally-owned and operated restaurant in Leeds, which opened in October last year.
Last year Chick-fil-A announced plans to open five restaurants across the UK by the end of 2026 as it looks to regain a foothold over here after some false starts.
In 2019, the chain opened a site within Reading’s Oracle shopping centre that was marked for closure little more than a week later.
It subsequently launched a site at the Macdonald Aviemore Hotel in the Scottish Highlands, but that site closed too within a few months.
Chick-fil-A has in the past been criticised for its reported historic donations to anti-LGBT+ organisations but in recent years it has overhauled its philanthropic policy to focus on education, homelessness and hunger.
To commemorate the opening of the Leeds restaurant, the group said it would donate $25,000 to non-profit organisations in the UK.
