Hudson Valley Post previously reported Hudson Valley residents will soon be able to order Chick-fil-A at some rest stops across New York.

The news of the popular fast-food chain opening up near the Hudson Valley excited many. But at the same time, it's not as exciting as a real store, because you have to be driving on the New York State Thruway to stop at one.

In February 2022, Hudson Valley Post reported better news. Chick-fil-A was working with officials in the Hudson Valley to open up its first location in the Hudson Valley.

Chick-fil-A announced plans to open up a store on Central Park Avenue in Yonkers. Chick-fil-A hopes to demolish a closed bank on Central Park Avenue in Yonkers and turn it into a stand-alone store.

But, before the company could start building they must get approval. Officials from Yonkers reviewed Chick-fil-A's application and the application approval hit some snags.
