Is Chick-fil-A open on Thanksgiving? [Updated November 2022]

Searching for a nice, quick chicken sandwich on Thanksgiving? Here’s if you’ll be able to get Chick-fil-A on Thanksgiving?

They’ve done it again, for the fourteenth straight year your parents overcooked the turkey. While you prefer dark meat, burnt-to-a-crisp-black might be a little too dark for your bird this year. So what can you do when your relatives overcooked the turkey, turned the mashed potatoes into a slurry, and created a stuffing brick due to a lack of stock? You could always trie Chick-fil-A.

Well, that is if they’re open. See, not a lot of places are open on Thanksgiving. It’s one of those rare holidays where you need to stock up plenty beforehand, otherwise, you’re out of luck. So if your parents or in-laws or spouse destroyed Thanksgiving dinner, you may need to find an alternative.

Maybe you know going into the dinner that it’s going to be bad and that one relative is going to make their turkey gravy pudding with apple slices again for the main dessert. You’re going to want to avoid eating their mangled dessert, and the best way to do that is to already have eaten.

So the best bet is fast food and if you’re a Chick-fil-A fan, there’s probably no better fast food place in the country than that. The only problem is Chick-fil-A is not open on Thanksgiving. They’re closed for the bird-themed holiday, which means if you’re looking to avoid Aunt Merytles flame-kissed tomato and lamb liver soup, or Uncle Mitch’s simultaneous under and over-cooked turkey, you may have to go to a different restaurant during Thanksgiving.

Luckily there are in fact some places that are open to help you get past this year’s festive food offerings, so you’re not completely out of luck, just if you were hoping for some chicken from Chick-fil-A.
