It all started in 1946, when Truett Cathy opened his first restaurant, The Dwarf Grill, in Hapeville, Georgia. Credited with inventing Chick-fil-A's boneless breast of chicken sandwich, Cathy founded Chick-fil-A, Inc. in the early 1960s and pioneered the establishment of restaurants in shopping malls with the opening of the first Chick-fil-A Restaurant at a mall in suburban Atlanta in 1967. Since then, Chick-fil-A has steadily grown to become the second largest quick-service chicken restaurant chain in the United States. Chick-fil-A is still privately held and family owned and has set itself apart by pioneering innovations and delicious products, including the ever-popular Chick-fil-A® Chicken Sandwich. Enjoy assorted chicken sandwiches and fresh salads, plus signature waffle potato fries and freshly squeezed lemonade.
