A Georgia-based fast-food favorite appears to be working on a new location in Fairburn.
According to construction plans, Chick-Fil-A Inc. is working on a new restaurant proposed for the corner of Thompson and Campbellton Fairburn roads. The Fulton County site, currently an empty lot, is across from a McDonald’s and near a Publix-anchored shopping center.
The restaurant is expected to be approximately 4,800 square feet, according to construction documents. The building will include a 1,500-gallon grease trap, as well as new landscaping and sidewalks. A drive-thru is planned for the location, according to the documents.
Chick-Fil-A first opened in Hapeville in 1946 and now has more than 3,000 locations in 48 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and Canada. Chick-Fil-A opens a limited number of restaurants each year, according to the company website.
The menu, most known for its classic chicken sandwich with pickles, also includes waffle fries, crispy and grilled chicken nuggets, salads and shakes.
