Major American fast food chain reveals first ever UK locations – does YOUR hometown make the cut?

American fast-food chain Chick-fil-A has revealed its first ever UK locations. 

The chicken sandwich chain plans to open five restaurants across London, Liverpool, Belfast and Leeds over the next two years. 

It already has more than 3,000 restaurants across the US, Puerto Rico and Canada, with the new UK branches marking the first locations outside of North America. 

The brand will donate £25,000 to a local non-profit organisation in celebration of each new UK restaurant opening. 

Anita Costello, Chief International Officer at Chick-fil-A, said: ‘Serving communities is at the heart of everything we do, and we look forward to bringing Chick-fil-A’s delicious food and signature hospitality to Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool and London, and continuing our long-term investment in the UK.’

The majority of Chick-fil-A restaurants will be owned by local, independent Owner-Operators – small business owners. 

Each local Owner-Operator will be responsible for daily activities of the business – including hiring and developing their Team Members, connecting with guests, and cultivating relationships with local organisations and businesses. 

Joanna Symonds, Head of UK Operations, said: ‘We’ve always cared about the impact of our restaurants on the local communities that we serve, and we strive to positively impact areas throughout the UK.’
