Chick-fil-A, one of the most popular fast-food chains in the country, announced that it will close all its locations in the United States on November 27, coinciding with the Thanksgiving holiday. The brand, known for its service and its chicken based menu, explained that this measure is taken every year to allow all of its employees to spend the holiday with their families, reinforcing one of the company’s most defining policies: prioritizing employee well-being.
Although the announcement surprised many customers, Chick-fil-A has maintained this tradition for decades during key holidays, including Christmas. This temporary closure affects more than 3,000 restaurants nationwide, creating a significant impact on one of the busiest dates in the food service industry.

The company recommended that customers who wish to enjoy its products during family gatherings place their orders in advance through its catering platform, available prior to the closure.
Does this closure mean Chick-fil-A is disappearing in the United States?
No. It is only a temporary holiday closure. All locations will reopen as usual on November 28.
