Dress Like A Cow For Free Meal At New Bradenton Restaurant

BRADENTON, FL — Those who dress like a cow to celebrate the opening of the new Chick-fil-A restaurant in Bradenton’s Heritage Harbour area will get a free meal, according to a news release from the company.

Thursday’s grand opening of Chick-fil-A Heritage Harbour at at 7283 State Road 64 East will feature a “Moove-In Party,” with customers who pay homage to the company’s mascot by wearing cow-themed attire or cow costumes eligible to receive one free entree or kids meal, either in the restaurant or in the drive-thru, while supplies last, the news release said. The offer is limited to one per person and doesn’t require a purchase.

The restaurant will also celebrate its opening with a $25,000 donation from Chick-fil-A, Inc. to Feeding Tampa Bay, a Feeding America partner food bank in the region.

Jonathan Ith, a longtime Chick-fil-A employee who became a local owner-operator, will lead the new restaurant, which will bring about 50 jobs to the community.

Ith began working for the company in 1989 and has called the Bradenton area home for more than 40 years, the news release said.

“When my family came to America from Cambodia in 1981, we were welcomed by the Bradenton community and given opportunities that changed our lives,” Ith said in a statement. “Opening this restaurant here is both a privilege and a way to give back to the community that supported my family from the beginning.”

The restaurant will offer dine-in, drive-thru, carryout, third-party delivery and mobile ordering options. It will be open Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
