Another updated, more urban-ish Chick-fil-A has opened Josh Green Thu, 07/25/2024 - 13:13 Chick-fil-A’s longstanding Sandy Springs location that resembled a midcentury toaster surrounded by surface parking has gone the way of the dodo.
Its modernized replacement has now opened—with a design that strives to appear more throwback-urban and pedestrian-friendly.
Situated just beyond the Interstate 285 Perimeter, the 5925 Roswell Road location previously housed a more traditional Chick-fil-A outpost for 31 years, until that became bulldozer bait just before Christmas last year.
Seven months later, Chick-fil-A Sandy Springs officially reopened this morning with a larger building that directly fronts the Roswell Road sidewalk, across the street from Whole Foods Market.

The Sandy Springs project continues a building spree for Chick-fil-A around Atlanta that includes an under-construction location next to the Clermont Lounge in Poncey-Highland—and another new outpost in Old Fourth Ward just four blocks away.
Chick-fil-A reps tell Urbanize Atlanta the Sandy Springs remodel was designed for speed and efficiency, with an enhanced drive-thru that features a fully dedicated lane with Mobile-Thru tech, allowing guests to pick up orders placed ahead of time on the chicken empire’s app. (Lawson Bailey—the local owner-operator of both Chick-fil-A Sandy Springs and Chick-fil-A Perimeter on Hammond Drive for the past 31 years—remains at the helm.)
Other features include a larger dining room and more parking, which is at least tucked away now.
“Congratulations everyone!” one Chick-fil-A fan enthused on the store’s Facebook page. “The store looks amazing!”
