Chick Fil-A UK Locations & Restaurants
Chick-fil-A has been expanding its presence worldwide and the restaurant chain is coming to the United Kingdom with the launch of five UK locations by 2026.
The Chick fil-a locations in United Kingdom are yet to be announced but are likely to focus on major cities including London, Birmingham and Manchester.
The first of the UK Chick-fil-A locations is set to open in early 2025 and will be the first permanent store outside of North America.
They follow expansion from the United States into Canada and Puerto Rico.
The five locations will be “locally owned and operated restaurants in the UK in the first two years and expand across the UK”.
“We are excited our restaurants will bring new jobs and opportunities throughout the UK,” said Anita Costello Chief International Officer at Chick-fil-A Inc.
“Serving communities is at the heart of everything we do at Chick-fil-A, and our unique local owner-operator model provides one of a kind access to entrepreneurial opportunities.
“We look forward to sharing our authentic Chick-fil-A experience: providing fresh food prepared with high-quality ingredients, served with our signature hospitality.”

The Chick-fil-a restaurants in the UK will follow the unique owner-operator model, with nearly 80% owning just one restaurant.
All new locations will have an investment of just $10,000 and will create approximately 80-120 new jobs.
Applications can be made for Chick-fil-A franchises in the United Kingdom.
