Chick-fil-A may be best known for serving a mean chicken sandwich, hot waffle fries and that oh-so delicious Chick-fil-A sauce, but our restaurants are also known for another secret sauce: our friends team members. Maybe they're happy because of easy access to chicken nuggets, or maybe it's because they simply love serving guests.
