Chick-fil-a is my weakness. I usually am not too fond of fast food, and am not a huge fan of chains in general. I'm not quite sure which factor it is that makes me like this place. Maybe I like it because I grew up with it in the south and have good memories of it as a kid. Maybe I like it because it's not as processed as other fast food joints. Or maybe it's because white meat chicken, breaded and fried in peanut oil tastes good, and just thinking about it makes me want to drive over there right now, and I've already had it twice this week! Regardless, the crispy, slightly sweet and salty chicken is tasty and it keeps me coming back for more. I prefer the original chicken sandwich with some Texas Pete hot sauce or Chick-fil-a buffalo sauce over the the nuggets, mostly because the nuggets cost more of the twelve pack, and the eight pack isn't quite enough for me to get full on. The char-grilled chicken sandwich is tender and topped with fresh lettuce and tomato. The bun for it is a little fancier than the other sandwich. I add some honey roasted BBQ sauce to it, and I'm good to go. The waffle fries are pretty good for frozen fast food fries. I really enjoy the chicken biscuit for breakfast. It's the same chicken as the original chicken sandwich or the nuggets, but this time on a hot, fluffy buttery biscuit. It's the only thing that can make me get up early on a Saturday morning. It can't be good for you, but it tastes oh so good. The tater tots in the morning are a bit too salty and greasy for my taste though. When I've got to go from work to grad classes at night and I'm exhausted and hungry, this is my go to place. I've never received cold food from this Chick-fil-a. It's always hot and fresh. I have to give them props because as many times as I've been here, they've only screwed up the order once. That's a pretty good track record, because when my schedule is crazy, I'm here one to two times a week.

Chick-Fil-A they got the nuggets, you want the nuggets... any questions? Food here is usually hot, I've only had one issue with food not coming out to me piping hot. The staff is very nice. One exception when when I ordered nuggets and fries at breakfast (some people do breakfast for dinner, well I prefer dinner for breakfast). The nuggets are already made because they serve them with biscuits but I was told the fries would be a few minutes, and I know this because I've done it before. When I got to the pay window I could hear the girl working the fryer "Fries?! Who eats fries at 7 in the morning!?!" I do, get over it. Chick fil a is also one of the few places that serve Diet Dr. Pepper AKA nectar of the gods. Love the stuff! They also have separate recycling for the Styrofoam cups - not sure if recycling them is possible but they claim that they are. Chick-fil-a also no longer openly donates to anti gay groups so that is a plus.

This is my go-to Chick Fil-A when in the Philadelphia area! Plenty of parking, super friendly staff, and the food has always been fresh and exactly as ordered. Since we lack a Chick Fil-A in New York, this is an absolute to-do when in PA. I always get the chicken sandwich, deluxe, with honey mustard. Mmm.

Since I rarely go anywhere cool, I make it a point to review the unreviewable fast food joints, that I inevidably find myself frequenting. Chick fil a has always been a stand up establishment. There is no doubt that they are offering a superior product. The chicken is excellent, waffle fries are a welcome change from limp fries, and their non- sandwich options are plentiful. Add to that good shakes, and now breakfast! and there isnt much to complain about the food (except their lack of onions...ask Aaron O about that one) Much is said about the religious views of the owners and thier decision to close on Sunday. While it can sometimes be a pain in the ass, I applaud it. Its a bold move in todays, " Gimmie Some Money" consumerism. In Europe , its hard to find a gallon of milk on sundays , and I believe its why those countries are much more family oriented. Ive also heard its a great company to work for. Not just because you are guarenteed Sundays off, but they are very employee dedicated. A friends mother worked for CFA and she told tales of Employee appreciation days at Hershey park (or possibly other parks.) Nothing amazing but its better than the nothing that most places offer as perks. A couple of sour notes. I call BS on their claim that in 1946 they "invented" the chicken sandwich. I mean really, no one thought to put chicken between 2 pieces of bread before that!!?? A likely story. This isnt cold fusion we are talking about. Im pretty sure cavemen made burritos with field mice and grape leaves so a chicken sandwich is a no brainer. Also the Springfield locaton can be a cluster f***. There was no rhyme or reason either in front of or behind the counter. A wait is not as bad as auctioning off food when it comes up. At least give numbers, especially since everyone is getting basically the same thing. Issues aside, its good food at a decent price. Despite their staunch religious views, its not like they push them on their guests. At least, thats what our God, Veeeger, tells me to say.

Decent fast food. Always served warm and the people who work there are, oh so polite, It's a bit pricier than other places but the quality is also better.

Always got really hot chicken sandwiches from this location. My boyfriend gets coupons to use at this Chick-Fil-A so it's even more better. I see tons of parents bringing their children here and enjoying the play pin. Even though it's off of McDade Blvd, it really seems personable when it comes to the staff here. It can be a little sticky in here -- meaning not clean on some spots & tables, so that's why the star is knocked off.

They get a plus for the food tasting delicious... they get minueses for the drive thru having a 30-minute wait, and super-duper minuses for screwing up my order. Sean and I both ordered the chicken sandwich meal with a cookies and cream milkshake and add lettuce and tomatoes for both sandwiches.. Mine had a side salad w/ranch dressing instead of fries... Well, what we got was no tomatoes because of the scare, no lettuce because... well, we just don't know why... and I got blue cheese instead of ranch. I DON'T LIKE BLEU CHEESE, but who's going back after a 27-minute wait?
