US fast-casual restaurant chain Chicken Salad Chick is set to enhance its presence in the metro Atlanta area with a new location in Woodstock, Georgia.

Opening on 22 May 2024, the new location will be the brand’s 24th establishment in the region and its 41st in the state.

The Woodstock branch will offer dine-in, takeout and drive-through service and serve Chicken Salad Chick's signature offerings, which include chicken salads, fresh side salads, gourmet soups and signature sandwiches.

The outlet will also feature offerings from the brand's newly expanded dessert programme.

As part of the opening celebrations, the first 100 guests will receive free chicken salad for a year.

Chicken Salad Chick president and CEO Scott Deviney said: “We've had our sights set on the Woodstock market for quite some time.

“We know Woodstock residents have been hungry for a Chicken Salad Chick restaurant in their community, and we were thrilled to be able to secure a prime location in this corner of metro Atlanta.

“This move underscores the company's commitment to expanding our footprint across Georgia, and we can't wait to serve our new neighbours.”

Earlier this week, Chicken Salad Chick expanded its footprint in Little Rock, Arkansas, with a new venue in Maumelle.

Featuring a drive-through facility, the Chicken Salad Chick of North Little Rock-Maumelle is located in the West Landing shopping centre.

The new venue is operated by business partners Emily Gray and Hudson Sandefur of Little Rocking Chick, who already own three Chicken Salad Chick spots in Little Rock.
