Overview
- Alliance and North Canton are slated to open this fall as part of the first wave in Northeast Ohio.
- In the Columbus area, Groveport is expected to open by year’s end, with additional sites planned for Athens, Whitehall, Hilliard, Lancaster and Marysville after a Westerville drive-thru opened in April.
- Cincinnati-area growth includes fall openings in Madisonville, West Chester and Middletown, plus a location at Miami University’s Armstrong Student Center, with Corryville and northern Kentucky to follow.
- Further Northeast Ohio plans include Downtown Cleveland, Broadview Heights, Aurora, Akron, Stow, Streetsboro and New Philadelphia in the coming years.
- The rollout follows Chick-fil-A’s roughly 80 existing Ohio restaurants within a system of more than 3,000 locations, and the new units will use the company’s standard franchising model.
