Chick-fil-A Set To Open New Restaurant In Lansdowne

LEESBURG, VA — Chick-fil-A is opening a new restaurant on Feb. 20 in Lansdowne, where it is expected to employ about 80 workers. The restaurant, located at 19313 Front St., will be its second location in Leesburg and the 32nd location within 25 miles of Leesburg. The existing Leesburg Chick-fil-A is located at 1002 Edwards Ferry Rd. NE.

The Lansdowne Town Center Chick-fil-A will feature double-ordering drive-thru lanes merging into a single payment lane to increase the speed of about 200 cars through the drive-thru in an hour, the Atlanta-based company said Tuesday in a news release. The inside will seat 114 people and have an indoor children's playground.

The restaurant will serve a full breakfast menu until 10:30 a.m. It will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Saturday and will be closed on Sunday.

In January, Chick-fil-A added to its menu the new Kale Crunch Side, a blend of curly kale and green cabbage tossed with an apple cider and Dijon mustard vinaigrette dressing with an optional topping of salty, crunchy roasted almonds.

People interested in applying for a job at the Chick-fil-A should visit the company's website.

Residents interested in winning Chick-fil-A for a year should begin arriving at the new restaurant around 4:30 a.m. on Feb. 20 to participate in the restaurant's First 100 Red Carpet Rollout. The First 100 promotion registration is scheduled to begin at 5 a.m.
