Puyallup Chick-fil-A Announces Opening Date

PUYALLUP, WA - The local Chick-fil-A restaurant will open for business on Feb. 9 adjacent to the South Hill Mall, the company has announced.

The Puyallup restaurant will be the fifth in Washington, and if the other locations are any indication, you'll have to wait in line to get your hands on some chicken. When a restaurant opened in Bellevue several years ago, the location had to hire a security guard to handle the heavy traffic.

The Puyallup location will also honor the "first 100" tradition where the first 100 people in line at the opening get free chicken for a year.

The Puyallup Chick-fil-A will employ up to 90 people, the company said, and will be locally operated by Mike Lehman, a former Navy captain who lives in the Puyallup area.

The address of the location is 104 39th Ave. Southwest. If you're interested in applying for a job at the Puyallup location, visit https://www.cfapuyallup.com/.
