"Fat Faced Chicken loving NYC folks, your dreams have been fulfilled"


  

          

Chick-Fil-A is scheduled to open up a new Chick-Fil-A that should open up this summer. Have to admit, I'll probabaly head over there on cheat day Saturdays to get some nice waffle fries.

Three-story Chick-fil-A to open here this summer
The popular fried chicken sandwich chain will establish a three-story location on Sixth Avenue, but don't expect it to be open on Sunday.

Published: March 10, 2015 - 10:20 am

Why did the chicken cross the Hudson? To open the first stand-alone Chick-fil-A in New York City.

The Atlanta-based restaurant chain will debut a three-level eatery at 1000 Sixth Ave., at the corner of West 37th Street, in late summer. The 5,000-square-foot space marks the 48-year-old company’s first foray into the Big Apple market, though it has operated a tiny outpost within the food hall of New York University’s campus for years. The closest location is 15 miles away in Paramus, N.J.

"We are beyond excited about opening our first freestanding restaurant in New York," said Carrie Kurlander, vice president of public relations. "This location will allow us to serve fans who have been asking us to come to New York and to earn the opportunity to serve new customers." She noted that the company is actively working on additional restaurants to open here this year and next.

Like its other 1,850 locations, Chick-fil-A’s New York restaurant, which is a franchise location, will not be open on Sundays, as the company "believes all operators and team members deserve a day off," according to a spokeswoman. Of course, only operating six days of a week will make affording the city’s hefty rents a difficult task. The asking rent for the Sixth Avenue space was $450 a square foot for the ground floor, for example.

It also remains to be seen how the city’s gay community will welcome the chain. Chick-fil-A met with controversy three years ago in Boston following anti-same-sex marriage comments made by company Chief Executive Dan Cathy. Since then, Mr. Cathy has reportedly said he will no longer mix business with social issues.

" believes in doing everything with integrity, and that really comes across," said Michael Cohen, the owner of the Sixth Avenue space.

"We hope that Chick-fil-A's planned entrance to New York City comes with a side of LGBT-inclusivity and a newly-thought strategy for supporting ventures that are equality friendly," said Nathan Schaefer, executive director of Empire State Pride Agenda. "The bedrock of our city is built on diversity and the history of the LGBT civil rights movement took place on our streets; we encourage all new businesses, including Chick-fil-A, to learn from the mistakes they've made and welcome a new era that is reflective of the people they will be serving."

The eatery, whose ground and second floors and basement are 2,200 square feet each, will boast 10 registers—more than any other existing outpost—and as many as 80 seats. Its position on the Sixth Avenue corridor will further connect the growing neighborhoods of Herald Square and Bryant Park, said Jack Terzi, the JTRE Holdings broker who handled negotiations for Mr. Cohen.

"There’s tremendous retail activity in the area," said Mr. Terzi. He noted that he will soon market a space on West 38th Street and Sixth Avenue.

Jeremy Ezra of RKF represented the chicken chain in negotiations.

I'm worried that's going to be a tourist death trap in terms of how crowded it's going to be. I still plan to treat myself on Saturdays though. I don't know of too many places where I can get waffle cut fries.

This would be a HUGE problem for me. In the summer when I have my bike though I still might make a run. My GOD I can't wait for those breakfast chicken biscuits! I've only had them MAYBE twice and cursed the heavens ever since.

I'm assuming that you crunch numbers for a living or own your own business to want to crunch those numbers on your own initiative.

>But between the transplants and the hipsters, CF gonna be
>alright.

I'm sure that location will be quite profitable, even with them closing on Sundays; longtime NYC folks like myself will flock to this store in droves based on the fact they store has been held back for years now, outside of the Chick-Fil-A for NYU students. And holding the initial opening to one location will drive folks there even more than if there were multiple spots in the city.

It's amazing how much rent goes for. Whatever Chick fil A is paying in Herald Square, it's probably less than what Shake Shack and Apple pay for their space in Grand Central Terminal. But these places make enough to cover that rent. I'm amazed by it.

I'm aware for rental locations there are tax breaks if a certain amount of space is reserved for low income folks, but I wasn't aware retail spots had concessions.

Outside of employment practices and maybe space for handicapped/wheelchair folk, I can't think of anything else that could merit a tax break for a retail space. I wish I knew more info just out of want to know more, but I respect that you have to keep your mouth shut since your knowledge is job related and is tied to contracts you're had hands in.

to oversaturate NYC at first. I know of two Five Guys spots that closed down late last year; one near the Wall Street area and one that was close to Barclays Arena. Build one spot to properly gauge interest and build further locations if this one spot is profitable. Also, multi-level fast food joints are present in NYC; I know of a Burger King spot near the Wall Street area that is either two or three stories.

Shake Shake has great seasoned quality meat & some cool ideas (their fried mushroom+cheddar patty is to die for, particularly stacked on top of their regular burger).

However the fries suck ass, along with waiting 20 minutes in some location to get one.

Imho, factoring price and everything else, I prefer In and Out. But it's still a good burger. Not a huge fan of Fatburger, and while I mess with 5 Guys its mainly because of the ten tons of fries they throw at you.

Shake Shake has great seasoned quality meat & some cool ideas (their fried mushroom+cheddar patty is to die for, particularly stacked on top of their regular burger).

However the fries suck ass, along with waiting 20 minutes in some location to get one.

Imho, factoring price and everything else, I prefer In and Out. But it's still a good burger. Not a huge fan of Fatburger, and while I mess with 5 Guys its mainly because of the ten tons of fries they throw at you.

>but i recently heard it ain't really all that compared to
>something like in & out or fatburger

The burgers are aight. You can get comparable or better burgers for the same price anywhere. The shakes stand out to me. In any event, it's NOT worth the 20 minute wait tourists endure just to go there. It's just a burger place.

That sounds horrible, given that the prices are fairly high and from what I see, the burgers aren't organic or too healthy compared to other standard burger joints. I'm glad I never took the plunge and made the trek to the one in Downtown Brooklyn.

I was expecting to see healthier burger options, like Bison or Ostrich burgers. They looks like average burgers found in normal burger spots.

but yes just slightly above average

shakes are better
fries i think as well

in and out only messes up because they don't offer bacon

Chik-Fil-A headquarters are located here in Atlanta and for work we went to visit them. We got a chance to see a mock-up of the NYC stores. The three story stores are BEAUTIFUL! They def put a lot of work and research into the design and customer usability of those stores.
