SENOIA, Ga. — A town best known for its association with "The Walking Dead" is set to be home to the newest metro Atlanta Chick-fil-A.
A Chick-fil-A restaurant will be opening for business on Thursday, Oct. 13 in Senoia. It is located at the Senoia Village Shopping Center at 7996 Wells Street.
The Atlanta-based chain announced this week that the restaurant will be open for dine-in, drive-thru and carry-out from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
According to the company, the location is expected to hire 130 full- and part-time employees.
The company said it would be operated by Doug Barnett, who has previously opened other Chick-fil-A locations in Fayetteville.
“I am honored to open Chick-fil-A Senoia and have the privilege of continuing to serve this community that I love so much,” Barnett said in a statement. “I cannot wait to have a positive impact on the community through incredible Team Members, delicious food and excellent service.”
Chick-fil-A said that in honor of the new location opening, it would be donating $25,000 to the Feeding America organization.
"In addition, Chick-fil-A Senoia is recognizing 100 local heroes making an impact in the Senoia area by providing them with free Chick-fil-A meals for a year," the company said in a release.
