Spicy chicken sandwich and the market salad with apple cider vinaigrette.

I'm dying here. Like some others here, the closest is a good drive away. They have quite a few of the other fast foods so it's just a matter of time I'm guessing

Are you saying you spend $150/day there?
Is one of those hospitals HUP? I spent a LOT of time walking around that place when I was in school.
Yes, I spend about $150 per day on chik fil during a week ($750-$800 weekly). Hospital staff just loves it and I like supporting them.
HUP? Hospital of UPenn? I do go there a lot, one of my favorite places. I swear my IQ goes up 10 points just being there lol

100% totally agree, especially the lemonade. I would also order up an extra helping of friendly and professional service since it's free.

Psst...... It has B A C O N and a lot of other really good stuff. The lettuce is so fresh you would swear it was picked 5 min. ago.

Another thing about Chick-fil-A.... if you order a sandwich minus an ingredient (like lettuce) they subtract 15 cents from the total, per ingredient.

I just wish they would build one in Anchorage, flying to Seattle is expensive for a CFA fix.

Yes it is. I like to get to Chick-fil-A at least a couple times a month, Chicken sandwich, no pickle and large waffle fries. My wife likes their salads with grilled chicken. Great place, great people, great values, funny poster ads. Much to the chagrin of the left, CfA is going to be around forever.

The limited time frosted lime-onade is awesome. Practically a lime sherbert shake. I do have to go diet lemonade, though... the regular is too sweet.

Yes. I think it's the best hospital in the Philadelphia area. Best university, too.

What I find so interesting about Chik-Fil-A's continuing success, is that its not really 100% tried to the quality of their food (though it is excellent), or an American interest in chicken in general. Its the culture and environment of the stores/company being soooooooooo different from all other fast food options. The young people who work there are well groomed, well trained in customer dialog, and usually, huge leaps above their peers working for other fast food joints. Then the restaurants are kept impeccably clean and orderly and everyone seems to know what they're supposed to be doing.
No matter how busy they are, you always feel good about visiting a Chik-Fil-A store. That, coupled with good food, makes them incredibly successful in their market. Now its time for a Spicy Chicken Deluxe sandwich.

I gotta stop in that place one of these day. It's two blocks from my house. Next to CF is In-N-Out . Whenever I drive by, both places look like a zoo. Even on Mondays.

Did you go through the drive trough or go inside?
Chick-Fil-A is the most consistently clean, friendly and professional fast food restaurant I've been to. Never have I been to one and thought it was a dump. Never once have I wished I had gone somewhere else.
