The City’s First Legit Chick-Fil-A Will Be in Midtown
Political disagreements aside, there’s no denying that the the food from Chick-Fil-A is delicious. For those of us who grew up in the suburbs of the South, chicken nuggets with dipping sauces was our childhood. We have written extensively about the fast food company on these pages and you’ll forgive us, but we have to write about it a few more times. Because Chick-Fil-A is opening their first stand-alone restaurant in Midtown. And it is a massive one.
Crain’s reported that a three story, 5,000 square foot space will open on Sixth Avenue and 37th Street in late summer. Just like all their other locations, this Chick-Fil-A will be closed on Sunday. Not sure how that’s going to sit with the tourists, but it doesn’t affect us too much. While it is hard to resist those Chick-Fil-A waffle fries, it will be interesting to see how the business fares in this city, considering the owner’s stance on same-sex marriage.
Chick Fil A, 1000 6th Ave. (at 37th Street)

Besides the owner being a homophobic religious nut, the food just isn’t that good. I’ll take mcdonalds nuggets any day over chick-fil-a.

There’s plenty of denying it. Their specialty is a sad chicken patty with a depressed pickle on a morose bun, seasoned with MSG.

mcnuggets? *really*? Just lost all cred with that ludicrous statement.,

Yes, let us all renounce personal opinion while embracing well-marketed shittiness. ‘Tis the New American Way.

Funny, the construction site says the building at this corner won’t be completed until May 2016.

Perfect American response @brookin231 preferring chicken like to actual chicken. LMAO

100 West 37th (SW corner) will be done in May 2016, Fil-A is taking over 1000 6th Ave on the NE corner. They won’t get as much tourist traffic as they would with a location on Broadway.
I’d much rather go to Shake Shack that will open at the corner of Broadway & West 36th St.
