Our founder, Truett Cathy, made the decision to close on Sundays in 1946 when he opened his first restaurant in Hapeville, Georgia. Having worked seven days a week in restaurants open 24 hours, Truett saw the importance of closing on Sundays so that he and his employees could set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose — a practice we uphold today.

Closed on Sundays

Meet The Operator…

Jeff began his career with Chick-fil-A at 16 in Atlanta, GA. In the Fall of 1997, he married Tasha (a former Team Member herself) and they moved to Jacksonville, FL where Jeff became the Owner/Operator of Chick-fil-A at the Avenues Mall. Three years later, Jeff had the opportunity to open a new free standing location at Deerwood Park and eventually opened our location in 2005. Jeff and Tasha have two children, Maggie and Ben, who both worked at Chick-fil-A growing up!
