Chick-Fil-A is now responding to the Coronavius outbreak in the Unites States, stating that they will now close their dining room seating. This follows Starbucks announcement that they would also go to a pick up only or drive thru process for drink orders and pick-ups.

Our highest priority continues to be the health and well-being of everyone who comes into our restaurants. As we navigate the evolving impact of coronavirus on our communities, we are temporarily closing our dining room seating to help limit person-to-person contact. Some of our restaurants may only offer service through our drive-thrus, while others may be able to offer takeout, delivery or mobile order options. Thanks for your patience. We know these are challenging times, but we’ll continue to do our best to serve you.

Tim Tassopoulos, President and COO Chick-fil-A

Chick-fil-A has also stated that as the Coronavirus continues to impact communities around the United States they may have to implement additional changes such as reducing operating hours.
