Chicken Salad Chick

AUBURN, Ala. /PRNewswire/ - Chicken Salad Chick, the nation's only southern inspired, fast casual chicken salad restaurant concept, opened its first Mississippi restaurant in Oxford. The new restaurant opened on Tuesday, March 28 and is located at 1305 Merchants Drive in the Galleria II Shopping Center near Marshalls and Ulta. This location is owned and operated by husband-and-wife franchisee team Robin and Will Clayton.

During grand opening week, guests will enjoy Southern hospitality through giveaways and specials at the new Chicken Salad Chick restaurant:

  • Saturday, April 1 – Kids Eat Free All Day – Kids will receive one free kids meal with the purchase of The Chick.***

"As a long-time fan and frequent customer of Chicken Salad Chick, it has always been a dream of mine to own a location. After visiting friends and family in Oxford, we knew it was the perfect market for Chicken Salad Chick with its Southern small-town charm and pleasant atmosphere," said Robin Clayton, Oxford Chicken Salad Chick franchisee. "Our family is eager to get started spreading the 'chick' love with the Ole Miss community."

Robin and Will are no strangers to the Chicken Salad Chick concept. The husband-and-wife franchisee team, who now reside in Oxford, discovered the brand seven years ago, because Robin's sister started working at the Chicken Salad Chick corporate office. After becoming familiar with the brand's franchising opportunities, Robin and Will decided to partner with their families to form YESSAM, LLC and bring the first restaurant into the state of Mississippi.

The Chicken Salad Chick concept, born in Auburn, Ala., was established in 2008 in the kitchen of founder, Stacy Brown. When Stacy discovered that the local county health department would not allow her to continue making and selling her delicious recipes out of her home kitchen, she overcame that obstacle by launching her first restaurant with the business expertise of her future husband and fellow founder, Kevin Brown. Together, they opened a small takeout restaurant, which quickly grew; the company now has more than 65 restaurants across the Southeast.

Chicken Salad Chick in Oxford will be open Monday – Friday from 10:30 a.m. – 8 p.m. and Saturday from 10:30 a.m. – 6 p.m. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com, or call 662-380-5582. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
