2015 may have been the year of the chicken sandwich, but Chick-fil-A hopes to keep the conversation going well into the new year. Following the tumultuous debut of their first flagship store at 1000 Sixth Avenue—protesters clashed outside the store over the company's stance on LGBT rights—, the controversial mega-chain will open a second New York outpost at 46th Street and Sixth Avenue inside Rockefeller Center on April 2.
According to a recent press release, guests can expect the usual menu of hand-breaded chicken-breast sandwiches, waffle fries and hand-spun milkshakes. Unique to this expansive, two-story location, however, will be locally-sourced ingredients, including salads sourced from New York and New Jersey farms. Breads will be delivered daily from New Jersey's Automatic Rolls, while the flaxseed flatbreads used in the restaurant's low-calorie wraps will be delivered by Damascus Bakery in Brooklyn. A press release also claims that by the end of 2019, the meat used in every Chick-fil-A restaurant will be completely antibiotic-free.
And, as with every Chick-fil-A grand opening, be one of the first 100 people in line for a chance to score a year's supply of chicken sandwiches.
