Chicken Salad Chick Opens in Covington with Grand Opening Festivities Nov. 12

Beloved fast-casual brand expands in Georgia with made-from-scratch classics  and community celebrations

COVINGTON, Ga., Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Chicken Salad Chick, the nation's only fast-casual chicken salad restaurant concept, brings fresh flavors to Covington, GA this November as part of the company's continued growth across its home state. Located at 4153 Hwy 278 NE in the Covington Plaza Shopping Center, the Covington restaurant will officially open its doors on Wednesday, Nov. 12 at 10 a.m. District Manager AJ Jajjo, General Manager Michael Sherman and the Covington team will award the first 100 guests who purchase a meal free chicken salad for a year.

Dedicated to spreading joy, enriching lives and serving others, the brand's newest location in Covington will bring its lineup of made-from-scratch chicken salads, pimento cheese, egg salad and fresh side dishes, all served with a generous helping of Southern charm. Whether guests are stopping in for a quick bite, picking up a meal for the family or enjoying time with friends, they can expect a comfortable and welcoming dining experience.

Aligning with the brand's promise to give back to the communities it serves, Chicken Salad Chick will donate proceeds from Covington's grand opening events to Camp Twin Lakes. Each summer, Camp Twin Lakes serves thousands of children and teens from across the country during weeklong overnight camping programs. Each week, they serve a different unique diagnosis or life challenge at three medically-supported campuses located in Winder and Rutledge, GA. As campers grow, they are able to develop their leadership skills and learn how they can overcome and even use their unique challenges for the good in their own lives and in their communities.

"As Chicken Salad Chick expands its Georgia footprint, we're thankful to become part of welcoming communities like Covington that value tradition and connection," said Scott Deviney, Chicken Salad Chick CEO. "Our team looks forward to serving our new neighbors and helping create memorable experiences for everyone who walks through our doors."

Covington operating hours are Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Guests can enjoy signature chicken salad, fresh side salads, gourmet soups and an expanded dessert menu, now featuring decadent cakes and a variety of sweet treats.
