Chick-fil-A Opens New Restaurant In Farmingville

The chicken sandwich chain celebrated the grand opening of its newest restaurant, located in Farmingville’s Expressway Plaza at 2280 North Ocean Avenue, on Thursday, Oct. 17.

It marks Chick-fil-A’s ninth location on Long Island.

The new restaurant is expected to bring approximately 115 full- and part-time jobs and will be locally owned and operated through a franchise model, the company said.

It will be open for dine-in and drive-thru, and will also offer a “Mobile Thru,” a fully dedicated lane in the drive-thru where customers can pick up orders placed ahead of time on the Chick-fil-A app.

Chick-fil-A was founded in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1967 by S. Truett Cathy, a devout Southern Baptist. The restaurant chain is famously closed on Sundays.

Among its most popular items is the original chicken sandwich, featuring a seasoned, boneless chicken breast that's breaded, deep-fried, and served on a toasted bun with dill pickle chips.

Customers can also choose from a number of other sandwiches, nuggets, salads, breakfast items, and milkshakes.

Chick-fil-A operates nearly 3,000 locations across the United States, including 54 in New York.

Its Farmingville restaurant is open Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Find out more on its website.
