chick-fil-a

We live in a complicated time and with uncertainty in our future the time for delicious fast food chicken is now.

Chick-fil-A announced a major change to its food.

A popular Chick-fil-A item that's been around for over 40 years is being recalled.

We finally have Chick-fil-A in the Capital Region and there are more being proposed. It seems, though they are building in already congested areas. This one is no exception it may be the busiest area in Rensselaer County.

If you were looking forward to having Chick-Fil-A, you might have to look elsewhere if you live here because the plans for the new restaurant are officially dead.

The busiest travel day on the NY Thruway is Sunday and now New York State lawmakers are proposing a bill to force the chicken joint to remain open all seven days.

There is a lot of construction that is coming to an end in a busy part of Rensselaer County. The first-of-its-kind chicken fast food joint and a discount grocery store will open in this area by the end of July.

Chick-fil-A announced that they are now hiring for their new Capital Region locations.

It's almost ready! The much anticipated first Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant in the Capital Region, outside of the airport, is almost complete.

The study of this Fulton County location for the newest chicken fast-food franchise began last year. Now the site plans to build were recently submitted. This new fast-food restaurant could be built by late this year or early next.

We have seen a couple of New York State Thruway rest areas reopen but that may be all for a while. It looks as if the project to revamp and rebuild the twenty-seven Thruway rest areas is significantly delayed.

There is more development planned in Rensselaer County. This time there will be a new Chick-fil-A and Aldi grocery store going in. The area is already being developed at a rapid rate.

It will be the first Chick-fil-A (outside of the Albany International Airport) built in the Capital Region. The Clifton Park Chick-fil-A is moving full steam ahead. Check out the project, the progress, and the renderings of what this restaurant will look like when it's complete. The new Chick-fil-A is being built where the old Pier 1 store once was near Clifton Park Center. The plan is to open in March or April.

It could be TGI... Wednesday?

Rumors had been swirling for quite some time about Brick House Tavern & Tap closing and now it's official. But there are more rumors. It appears that there is a popular restaurant that may be moving into its location.

We haven't heard much about the Chick-fil-A that is being built in Clifton Park but now we know when we can expect it to open. It now has the approval to begin construction.

Can you taste the waffle fries yet?

The New York State Thruway is in the process of overhauling all 27 of the rest areas. Although they are only working on a handful at a time, the renderings have been revealed. Not only will they be more of an open concept, but some will also have dog parks and all will have better food options.

So any home decor left over?

We have been hearing for some time that the Capital Region will be getting two Chick-fil-A locations (other than the one inside the airport). It seems planning is moving along quite nicely for the Clifton Park location. The Town of Clifton Park Planning Board just got renderings and plans for what that restaurant may look like.

You will no longer have to get through airport security to get it

The New York State Thruway is in the process of overhauling all 27 of the rest areas. Although they are only working on a handful at a time, the renderings have been revealed. Not only will they be more of an open concept, but some will also have dog parks and all will have better food options. Look for Shake Shack, Panera, Starbucks, Panda Express, Chik-fil-A, Popeyes, Dunkin, Burger King, and a new fresh concept Applegreen convenience stores. Taste NY farm markets will be at each rest area along with play areas and picnic areas. There will be amenities for commercial truck drivers including more truck parking, showers, fitness centers, and laundry facilities.

It seems that Chick-fil-A is finally listening to the demand of the Capital Region. Last week it was announced that they are building their first location (outside of Albany International Airport) in Clifton Park. Now we have learned that they are planning a second location in Colonie.

Chick-fil-A is hoping to open its restaurants and rest stops on the New York Thruway, but some lawmakers are saying not so fast. Do you want the restaurant to open?

The New York State Thruway Authority will begin a four hundred fifty million dollar project to renovate the twenty-seven service areas throughout New York state. They will rebuild twenty-three of the rest area buildings and the others will be significantly upgraded.
