The Chick-fil-A restaurant on the Tusculum University campus is set to host a Grand Opening on Monday, July 30.
According to David Martin, director of facilities and campus safety, construction is near completion and plans are in place for the public opening on July 30.
Plans are for the Chick-fil-A to be open six days a week, closed on Sunday, as are all Chick-fil-A franchises. The Tusculum Chick-fil-A will offer breakfast, lunch and dinner options and will be open to the community.
While the store will open at 7 a.m. on the first day of operation, regular hours will be Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.
“This is an exciting time for Tusculum University and our entire community,” said Dr. James Hurley, president of Tusculum University. “Chick-fil-A brings a new level of commitment to our students that is second to none. Chick-fil-A has always been a very popular eatery with students, and I promised them last July we would build one on campus. Thanks to our Board of Trustees and our new partnership with Chartwells, we will make good on that promise. We welcome Chick-fil-A to our community.”
Codell Construction Company was the contractor on the property.
