Chick-fil-A in Tyler

“The drive through lines during lunch were the longest I've seen at any fast food restaurant anywhere. AFAIK, the fanaticism over chicken marinated in pickle juice is only outdone by the secret menu In-n-Out Burger fans.

Pro Tip: Go inside when the lines are long, or order in the app. I had zero wait to order inside. Meanwhile the double drive through patrons puttered along in the 97 degree heat.“

“The usual Chick-fil-a expectations were met: clean, well-staffed, efficient, polite service, and price-friendly meals. All CFA's are more than satisfying, but this particular store was on my visit- somehow - a bit more inviting than some of the others. We really enjoyed the experience!“

“As far as Chick-fil-A locations go, this one has pretty good food. Inexplicably, lunch at Chick-fil-A is generally tastier and more high-quality than when you get dinner. This likely has something to do with the fact that adults tend to work in the mornings and afternoons at fast food, while teenagers work more of the night shifts. At most fast food restaurants, and particularly at this one, the drive-through during dinner hours is like going to a high school social mixer -- there is a lot more flirting and socializing going on with the team members than actual service. So, expect much longer lines for dinner, and expect the food to not be quite as good.

However, this location is usually pretty fast and reliable for lunch. The only downside is that the parking situation around the building is deplorable. There are very few parking spots within the confines of the restaurant itself, forcing people who want to eat in to park around the periphery of the restaurant. This causes logistical issues, as people are streaming in and out through the drive-through line, which typically serpentines around the building. But let's face it: being in a ponderous drive-through line at a Chick-fil-A is a rite of passage; you encounter a crowd of people at virtually every Chick-fil-A in the United States. In fact, if you pull up to a Chick-fil-A location at peak lunch hours and the place is deserted, you have reason to worry. You might not know something that everyone else in the area knows.

But I digress: this Chick-fil-A is a solid four stars, particularly at lunchtime. For dinner, you're probably looking in the 2 to 3 star range, but some nights there's just no time to make dinner. You gotta do what you gotta do.“

“You arent going to find any fast food place with better service. It doesnt matter how busy they are, they have you through that line in a flash. The food is delicious and they are always super nice. If you have a problem withthe food they fix it quickly. Chick fil a is awesome.“

“Chick-Fil-A will always be one of my favorite take-out choices. Their food is always top tier, and so is their service! Every employee is very kind and helpful. This place is definitely super family friendly! Chick-Fil-A is also very speedy, despite how intimidating long lines can be. I’ve never waited longer than 5 minutes for my order to come through, even when with a larger group of people. On top of such valuable qualities, they’ve never made a mistake with my orders. If I ask for something, they do it and do it right. I absolutely do recommend.“
