Chick-fil-A and other popular fast-food restaurants provide a steady supply of juicy chicken, entrees, sandwiches, salads, and more to foodies who need quick body fuel on the go. As Christmas Day approaches, it is advisable to take note of establishments that might be closed for the day.
According to the Chick-fil-A website, all the company restaurants will be closed on December 25, 2024, to allow team members to spend time with their family and friends. This rule also applies to Sundays and Thanksgiving.
However, not all fast food restaurants will close shop on Christmas, so there are alternatives for your last-minute snack grabs and chicken sandwich cravings.
