The restaurant is usually open until 10 p.m. during the week and 11 p.m. on the weekend, so 8:15 p.m. was a fairly decent time to arrive at the restaurant for supper. No one greeted them at the door and after 10 minutes, they walked to the bar to attract the attention of the bartender to ask for a hostess to seat them. The hostess arrived and was clearly unpleasant and un- thoughtful as she tried to seat the family in an upper seating area.

The menu for the restaurant was simple, it consisted of five items; boneless chicken breast sandwich, potato fries, coleslaw, lemon pie, and lemonade. Over the course of years new items would be added to the menu; however the original Chick-fil-A sandwich would always be the leading sandwich.
