BRUNSWICK, OH — Chick-fil-A will open a Brunswick restaurant on Jan. 21.
The restaurant will be located at 3470 Center Road. Chick-fil-A Brunswick will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Dan Justus is the owner and operator of the Brunswick location. The restaurant will employ approximately 270 full- and part-time staffers.
Justus is a Northeast Ohio native. He began working with the chain restaurant in high school and has now been with the company for more than a decade. He met his wife while working at Chick-fil-A and the couple, and their two sons, recently moved to Brunswick.

During his early days working at the restaurant, Justus decided he wanted to open his own location. He then spent eight years working at different restaurant locations before joining the Chick-fil-A Leadership Development program. He and his family spent 30 months on the road as part of the program.
“I’m honored to have the opportunity to introduce Chick-fil-A’s delicious food and signature hospitality to the community of Brunswick,” Justus said. “I have been fortunate to have several key mentors in my life, many of whom I met through Chick-fil-A. My goal is to have that same level of influence on the lives of my Team Members and my Brunswick neighbors, and to help anyone who comes into contact with my restaurant to leave a better person.”

Instead of the traditional grand opening celebration, the restaurant will identify 100 local heroes who are making an impact in Brunswick. Those heroes will get free Chick-fil-A for a year.
Chick-fil-A has also partnered with Feeding America to make a combined $50,000 donation in honor of the Brunswick location and a newly opened Chick-fil-A in Parma.
