Company Information

In our kitchens, we focus on fresh and simple ingredients. And we always have. Since the beginning, we've served chicken that is whole breast meat, with no added fillers or hormones, and we bread it by hand in our restaurants. Produce is delivered fresh to our kitchens several times a week. Salads are chopped and prepared fresh throughout the day. Whole lemons are freshly squeezed in our restaurants and combined with pure cane sugar and water (yep, that’s all) to make Chick-fil-A Lemonade®. It may not be the easy way, but it's the only way we know.

Work in a Chick-fil-A restaurant:

A job at Chick-fil-A is more than just a job. It's a stepping-stone to a successful future in the world of business -- whether that is with Chick-fil-A or outside. Here are some of the great benefits of working at Chick-fil-A.

  • Flexible Hours: You probably have commitments to your family, friends, school or sports teams. We will try to arrange your work schedule around them.
  • Sundays Off: All Chick-fil-A restaurants are closed on Sundays so you can have a day off to spend with family and friends.
