Chick-fil-A’s newest location on Eastern Boulevard in Montgomery is set to open on Thursday.
The new location is at 2520 Eastern Blvd., where Wells Fargo used to be. The restaurant, which used to be in the 2600 block, is scheduled to open at 11 a.m officially.
The city’s paperwork says that the new, bigger building is 4,800 square feet, has two drive-through lanes, and has nearly 100 spaces for parking.
The move is meant to cut down on traffic on the service road, especially during rush hours.

History and Values
Family was always central to Truett Cathy’s life and would shape his unique approach to business later in life. With his wife of 65 years, Jeannette, he had three children: Trudy, Don “Bubba”, and Dan. The current generation of the Cathy family honors Truett’s legacy and continues to put his principles into action in both business and philanthropy. Many of the company’s values are influenced by the Christian religious beliefs of its late founder, S. Truett Cathy, a devout Southern Baptist.
