    Their chicken beats the hell out of everyone else’s. We haven’t had the choice here and I welcome it. I have had to travel to eat there and my friends give me gift cards all the time since they know it’s my favorite. Just because you don’t consider it news doesn’t mean it isn’t

    I agree with Vicki. I’ve heard a lot about Chick-Fil-A and am looking forward to their opening here in the Chicago area. Of course, it’s news! It’s a well known restaurant in the South and they’re coming to Chicago.

    The Wheaton one hasn’t even broken ground yet and it’s supposed to open in October. Maybe it’s time to stop making announcements and start digging?

    Yuck another chain food restaurant. If you look up the ingredients for their food you’ll see it loaded with msg. If America demands crap that’s what American’s get. It blows my mind that people get excited over chain food. Go to restaurants with higher standards or cook the food yourself.

    Yes! I wonder where in Schaumburg (I hope its going to be stand-alone and not in Woodfield). They’re religious fanatics but their Chicken sandwiches are awesome!

    Too bad it’s run by hateful religious whack jobs and the food isn’t that good.

    I love Chick-Fil-A in Houston… But they are not coming into the Chicago city limits…I wonder why? Not going to pay a big enough salary??? Too much tax to pay???

    1. Their “food” is horrible.
    2. The company is extremely anti-gay and donated to California’s Prop HATE to overturn marriage equality. My wife and I refuse to patronize them.

    I have driven to South Bend to get this chicken. It’s awesome! Great news!
    Welcome to Chicagoland!

    FINALLY! They are going to build one within daily driving distance! If you wanted their awesome breakfast, you had to drive to Racine early Saturday morning (the only day they serve breakfast) to the mall. I’ll be one of the people camping out to be the first 100
