Stacy Brown, “The Chick” behind Chicken Salad Chick, is returning to her hometown of Rome, Georgia to bring her acclaimed Southern, fast-casual eatery to the masses.
The new restaurant is located at 800 Martha Berry Blvd. by Floyd Medical Center. The grand opening will begin with a ribbon cutting at 9:30 a.m. and doors will open at 10 a.m.
On August 23 and 24, the restaurant will host two Friends & Family events benefiting the Ruth and Naomi House. Chicken salad enthusiasts interested in visiting the restaurant on either of these days are encouraged to message the eatery’s Facebook page at Facebook.com/ChickenSaladChickRome, and they can enter to win a year of free chicken salad by liking the restaurant’s Facebook Page.
On opening day, visitors are in for a treat as they will be able to meet Stacy Brown and the real chicks who inspired some of the brand’s popular flavors—including Kickin’ Kay Lynne, Classic Carol, Rockin’ Rita, Jazzy Julie, Nutty Nana, Sassy Scotty, Cranberry Kelli, Buffalo Barclay and Jalapeno Holly.
