FALL RIVER — After months of construction, an opening date is finally set for the first Chick-fil-A in Greater Fall River. The new restaurant, located at 700 William S. Canning Blvd, will open on Wednesday, July 6, according to a press release sent out by the company.

Giving back

In honor of the opening, Chick-fil-A, Inc. plans to donate $25,000 to Feeding America, a national non-profit that runs a network of agencies like food pantries, soup kitchen and shelters.

“These funds will be distributed to partners in the greater Providence area to aid in the fight against hunger,” the company said in the release.

Soon, Chick-fil-A will be adding Fall River to their list of locations.

With current offerings in Seekonk and South Attleboro, the restaurant chain will soon be taking orders from what used to be the empty parcel of land near the back of the lot at SouthCoast Marketplace.

Julie Gallagher is owner/operator of the soon-to-be Fall River location. Jared Stump, the Social Media Director for Chick-fil-A Fall River stated that the team is shooting for an opening at the end of June, but that isn’t 100% nailed down yet.

Special opening day festivities are planned, but have yet to be revealed.

Chick-fil-A is known for, of course, chicken. The franchise states that they focus on in-store food preparation and serving chicken that is whole breast meat raised with no antibiotics, fillers or added hormones. Fresh produce is delivered several times a week. Salads are prepared to order throughout the day and their famous Chick-fil-A Lemonade® is prepared daily with lemon juice, pure cane sugar and water.

Fall River’s Chick-fil-A restaurant will operate between the hours of 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with breakfast served from 6:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and lunch and dinner served from 10:30 a.m. until 10 p.m.

Locations are closed on Sundays so that employees can set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose. It is a tradition that they have upheld since founder Truett Cathy opened the first location in 1946.

Those interested in working at the eatery can text “chicken” to (508) 812-9990 to apply.
