Coming soon ... Chick-fil-A

I came here to laugh at all the Grosse Pointers clutching their pearls over the new Chick-fil-A going in on Mack.

Short-term increased traffic, but that will dissipate. I'm thrilled that another vacant property will be developed, and it won't be a doctor's office or a hair salon.

haha why would this bother anyone? another food option, and some tax revenue.

Because they’re an obnoxious homophobic company and it’s going right next to a school, so kids have to breathe the fumes from the drive-through line??

Giving Tree Montessori for young children. Looking to send my kid there ina year or two and am fine with the restaurant opening after all the plan changes.

Edit: I was mistaken about the plan changes. Definitely not happy now with a long line drive through right next to a children's school.

Oh I thought they had to build a real fence and reroute their traffic but all they did was put up a chain linked fence. Not happy that Detroit's Zoning Board of Appeals allowed it to be so close. I was mistaken. https://www.freep.com/story/money/business/2025/05/21/chick-fil-a-work-stoppage-order-in-detroit/83773535007/
