Chicken Salad Chick of Fairfax marks franchise owner, Devon Chamberlin's, second restaurant opening this year. Chamberlin, who also owns Chicken Salad Chick of Falls Church located at 7505 Leesburg Pike, opened that location in early August. Both locations are owned and operated by her franchise group, CSC NOVA Group, LLC, which she manages alongside her father, Patrick Cavanaugh, and father-in-law, Barry Chamberlin. Recognizing the local enthusiasm around the Falls Church and Fairfax locations, Chamberlin's group recently was awarded the development rights for Arlington, Fairfax and Loudoun Counties, aiming to open four additional restaurants in the area. Over the next two years, they are looking to expand into communities like Leesburg, Ashburn, and Sterling, bringing Chicken Salad Chick to even more local fans.

"I'm thrilled to continue growing Chicken Salad Chick's footprint in my home state of Virginia," said Devon Chamberlin, franchise owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Fairfax. "Ever since my first visit to Chicken Salad Chick when I was living in Florida, I fell in love with the customer service, fresh ingredients, and welcoming atmosphere. After moving back to Northern Virginia, I knew I wanted to bring this experience to my hometown. I was lucky enough to welcome my baby girl into this world on the opening day of our Falls Church location, I can't wait to see what excitement our second location will bring! Chicken Salad Chick's mission to 'Spread Joy, Enrich Lives, and Serve Others' is one I wholeheartedly believe in, and I look forward to sharing this spirit, and our delicious menu, with the Fairfax community this fall."

Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Fairfax restaurant features outdoor patio dining, dine in, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.

"We're excited to continue growing Chicken Salad Chick's presence in the Washington, D.C. metro area," said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. "Washington, D.C. residents value fresh, convenient, and healthier dining options, and we're thrilled to fill that void. The Fairfax opening will certainly build on the positive momentum that Devon started in Falls Church. We're happy to have her as part of the Chicken Salad Chick family and look forward to working with her to expand our reach in the area."

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Fairfax team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of the pre-opening Friends & Family event, the restaurant will be raising money for The Lamb Center, a daytime drop-in shelter for individuals experiencing homelessness in the Fairfax area. The organization provides meals, showers, laundry services, employment opportunities, and more.

Chicken Salad Chick of Fairfax will be open Monday – Saturday from 10:30am – 8pm. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
