America’s 3rd largest fast-food chain opens 1st Eagle restaurant with free entrees
One of America’s most popular fast-food chains is preparing to unveil its first Eagle restaurant.
Chick-fil-A will open early Thursday morning at 1780 Idaho 44. It’s in East End Marketplace, a shopping center at the corner of Idaho 44 and Edgewood Lane.
“Bringing Eagle its very own Chick-fil-A is such an honor,” local franchisee Brad Miles said in a press release, “and I cannot wait to serve this community with excellence and care.”
Miles has operated another Chick-fil-A location in the Boise area — at The Village at Meridian — for 13 years, the release said.
To celebrate, Eagle’s new Chick-fil-A will give away food during a “Moove-In Party” from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. on opening day. Anyone wearing cow attire — inside the restaurant or at the sure-to-be-buzzin’ drive-thru — will receive a free select entree or kid’s meal. No purchase is necessary.
“Whether it’s a full cow suit or a simple cow-spotted accessory, guests of all ages are invited to join the fun,” the release said.
Freebie options at breakfast are the Chicken Biscuit, Egg White Grill or four-count Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis. Lunch and dinner freebies include the Chicken Sandwich, Spicy Chicken Sandwich, eight-count Nuggets, eight-count Grilled Nuggets or a five-count Nuggets Kid’s Meal.
Chick-fil-A is the third-largest quick-service restaurant brand in the nation. “More than 200,000 team members are employed by local owner-operators in more than 3,000 restaurants across the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, the U.K. and Singapore,” according to the release.
