How is there no franchise in Ann Arbor yet? The social culture / climate would in no way outnumber the people who just love Chick-fil-A. Get it together. I’m hungry.
After living in Michigan for quite some time and never experiencing the greatness that is a Chick-fil-A sandwich until I moved to Florida six years ago, I agree completely. Not just about the sandwiches but the service. As a fast food joint, you just don't expect that level of hospitality. It's better than a lot of actual restaurants that have wait-staff and most of them are high school kids! Inconceivable!
We looked into franchise requirements once. Their franchise owners aren't true owners. The way I remember it, you are basically a manager of the location or some shit like that. That would deter most people.
Yeah it was the founder who was a freaking bigot. His kids who are in charge now couldn’t care less if you gay, bi, straight or your gender identity. All they care about is serving bomb ass chicken and making money.
No keep in mind no offense when I say this but - I love that people use the word "snowflake"... but its usually coming from someone who needs to carry a gun because they are afraid!
So don't take any offense... it was in the Geneva Convention
Yeah people do love dry ass tasteless pale chicken.
You clearly do “give a rat's ass about any snowflake political stuff.” You’re making a politically inflammatory statement on a sports blog. So don’t pull this crap.
And for the record, I love Chick-fil-A and wish Ann Arbor had one.
Chick Fil-A is pretty smart about not over-saturating. I think they'd do fine in the Ann Arbor/Ypsi area; but they aren't just trying to carpet-bomb the whole world, either.
I am in Raleigh as well. That franchise is ALWAYS packed with huge lines... but they have mastered being able to feed large quantities of people ASAP. It is really amazing.
This is the best single fast food meal. Undefeated. Never lost.
I’ll take a spicy 5 pc with cajun fries from Popeyes number 2, but the chance you actually get what you ordered at Popeyes is small, and the chance that it destroys your asshole is high.
I agree with you! Order the original breaded chicken sandwich, add cheese and onion, DAMN, that is some good eating! And when they do the 2 for $5 specials - WOW!!!

They screwed up my family's lunch today twice. Took them thirty minutes to get us two number ones and a kid's nugget meal.
That's a true story.

Joking aside, no. So I am a little pissed about it. Expectations run high at chick-fil-a though. It wouldn't have surprised me if it were McD's.

Why would I say its tasteless pale chicken if I had not eaten?
Maybe you should try using spices other than salt and pepper. Also it would be great if they joined the 21st century and stopped using styrofoam.
