Chick-fil-A has been delighting fast-food customers for decades. Now, however, the popular chicken chain has an all-new location that has quickly become a viral sensation. According to a new report, this location—the only one of its kind—in Oklahoma provides an all-you-can-eat option.
Inside the Nation’s Only All-You-Can-Eat Chick-fil-A

This is the fast-food chain’s most significant yearly contribution to educational spending. This accomplishment demonstrates Chick-fil-A’s dedication to education and advancing team members’ professional aspirations while assisting individuals who positively influence their communities.
Over 15,000 team members in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada received scholarships of up to $2,500, while 13 restaurant team members received $25K in funding. In addition, 12 Chick-fil-A Community Scholars who were nominated for their dedication to service and community leadership received $300,000.
“Chick-fil-A is deeply committed to investing in the remarkable futures of both Chick-fil-A Team Members and community leaders,” said CEO Andrew T. Cathy, who surprised each of the $25,000 team member recipients in person to present their scholarship awards.
The statement continued: “The growth of scholarship giving at Chick-fil-A reflects our belief in the power of education to transform lives. We are honored to support these exceptional students as they pursue their educational aspirations and look forward to seeing how they make a positive impact in their communities.”
In addition to its famous chicken sandwich and excellent customer service, Chick-fil-A is well-known for its long-standing dedication to supporting its employees beyond their restaurant roles. The fast-food giant has continuously invested in the people who represent the brand, offering everything from leadership development and career progression programs to hefty scholarship options.
The company’s scholarship programs are among the most important ways it helps its employees. Since 1973, over 122,000 team members have received more than $215 million in scholarships from the corporation to support their academic endeavors beyond their fast-food careers.
Through the Remarkable Futures Scholarship program, Chick-fil-A provides its employees with $1,000, $2,500, and $25,000 scholarships annually. All restaurant employees are eligible to apply for these scholarships.
