Drive-thru only Chick-fil-a planned for Citrus Landing shopping center on the Planning Commission menu

“Winner, winner, chicken dinner!” Fans of the chicken sandwich will be cheering if the Planning Commission approves the Conditional Use Permit and Design Review for a new Chick-fil-a drive-thru only restaurant this morning.

The project plans detail a 2,930-square-foot restaurant on 1.36-acres in the corner of the Citrus Landing shopping center. Stater Bros. Market opened their newest store on the site of the former K-Mart, at the corner of Van Buren and Arlington Avenues in September 2022. Locals familiar with the dinner hour traffic challenges at the Central Avenue entrance Chick-fil-a across from the Riverside Plaza will be pleased to see plans which accommodate 31 vehicles at a time in the double drive-thru lanes.
