Chick-fil-A Coming To Dunwoody?

Chick-fil-A in Dunwoody?

Will a Chick-fil-A soon be popping up in Williamsburg Village where the old Blockbuster used to be? Word on the street is that Chick-fil-A would like to tear down the old structure and build one of its signature restaurants. How do the neighbors surrounding the property feel about that? One neighbor told me his first reaction was "we'll start to look like Buford Highway."

I don't agree with that comment, but I understand not wanting a fast food restaurant less than 100 feet away from a residential neighborhood. However, if you had to hand pick a fast food chain to location there, it would be Chick-fil-A. Not only is Chick-fil-A closed on Sunday, but the company has a history of being extremely community-oriented. By the way, the Chick-fil-A on Mt. Vernon Rd. near the movie theatre is actually located in Sandy Springs and not Dunwoody.

What if Chick-fil-a didn't build a Drive-Thru? That would avoid greenhouse gas emissions from idling and traffic jams.

Joe - that sounds like a great idea and certainly Chick-fil-A could be approached about that, but my guess is they would have a big issue with lack of a drive-thru.
