The Mechanicsville restaurant is owned and operated by multi-unit franchise owners Tim, Kim, Rick and Nancy Collins of Providence Restaurant Group, LLC. The family has extensive background in the restaurant industry, specifically fast casual, as they've owned and operated a Stevi B's location in Mechanicsville for almost a decade. Prior to bringing Chicken Salad Chick to Mechanicsville, the Collins' opened their first location in Richmond last fall, which was also the first location in the state of Virginia. While the family's plans to open the Mechanicsville location were put on hold, the Collins have been offering curbside pick-up over the last two months to start introducing residents to the made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors that Chicken Salad Chick has to offer.
"We take pride in serving our community and though our doors weren't officially open, we're grateful to have been able to provide our flavorful chicken salad to residents in the area," said Kim Collins. "Since debuting our first Richmond restaurant last year, we've received tremendous support from our loyal guests and neighboring communities and are thrilled to be opening our second Chicken Salad Chick restaurant in Mechanicsville. We've been eagerly awaiting the day we could invite guests into our restaurant and are overjoyed that the day is finally here."
The Chicken Salad Chick concept was established in 2008 by founder, Stacy Brown. With more than a dozen original chicken salad flavors as well as fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches and delicious desserts, Chicken Salad Chick's robust menu offers a variety of options suitable for any guest. Under the leadership of CEO Scott Deviney and the Chicken Salad Chick team, the company now has 160 restaurants currently open in 17 states and remains a standout brand within the fast casual segment.
