Chicken Salad Chick is a popular fast-casual restaurant chain that focuses on chicken salad. It was established in 2008 by Stacy and Kevin Brown in Auburn, Alabama. The idea came from Stacy Brown's homemade chicken salad, which she initially sold door-to-door. However, due to health department regulations, the Browns decided to open a dedicated restaurant to continue their venture.
The franchise rapidly expanded, with its headquarters now located in Atlanta, Georgia, highlighting its quick growth and Southern heritage. Chicken Salad Chick started franchising in 2012, four years after its inception. Since then, it has grown significantly, providing various franchise models to accommodate different real estate opportunities in franchisees' areas.
The menu at Chicken Salad Chick offers a range of chicken salad flavors, served in various ways, including on bread, lettuce, or as a scoop with crackers. Besides its famous chicken salads, the restaurant also offers pimento cheese, egg salad, and a selection of side dishes and desserts. The chain is known for providing fresh, scratch-made, Southern-style favorites with a touch of hospitality, making customers feel as if they are dining at a friend's home.
