Chick-Fil-A To Open At Patriot Place In 2026: MA Cheap Eats
Plus: How to score deals during National Pizza Month and free wings for Monday Night Football this season.

MASSACHUSETTS — Braintree residents recently got some unfortunate news. The town had been told they were getting a Chick-fil-A that would open in a now-defunct Motel 6 property.
Last week they were told the company had backed out of their agreement, which was followed this week by news that a franchise would open at Patriot Place in Foxborough.
Chick-fil-A Foxborough, set to open in 2026, will be built within retail parking Lot 19 at Patriot Place, located adjacent to U.S. Route 1 at 80 Washington Street, officials said.

“Chick-fil-A’s commitment to customer service and hospitality paired with their delicious and fresh food, including their signature chicken sandwich, makes this locally owned restaurant an incredible addition to Patriot Place. We can’t wait until they officially open for business and our guests can enjoy everything Chick-fil-A has to offer.”
