Today, May 2, the newest Chick-fil-A location is celebrating its grand opening in Inverness Corners. The franchise is located in the parking lot across from Kohl’s.

Locally owned + operated

Chick-fil-A Valleydale is owned by Mark Meadows, a Birmingham native with a family connection to the restaurant’s history. Meadows’ wife, Kim, is the great-niece of Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy.

For the past 35 years, Meadows has owned and operated Chick-fil-A’s Inverness location on Highway 280 right down the road from the new Valleydale restaurant.

“It’s been over 30 years since I opened my first restaurant and a lot has changed, but the one thing that has remained the same is our commitment to making a positive impact on everyone we encounter.

As we open on Valleydale Road, we invite guests to visit us for the delicious food they know and love, and we hope they stay for the warm hospitality that has been our hallmark since day one.”

While this location doesn’t have a drive-thru, it does offer dine-in, carry-out, curbside and catering.

Celebrating by giving back

Meadows’ new franchise is participating in the Chick-fil-A Shared Table Program, which provides surplus food from the restaurant to local soup kitchens, shelters, food banks and nonprofits.
