Chick-fil-A sets up shop in Brooklyn, offering a gratis feast for cows
Chick-fil-A Delivers by Boat at Crab Island, Florida
In a unique twist to the fast food industry, Chick-fil-A is now offering boat deliveries at Crab Island near Destin, Florida. This innovative service, operated by a third-party vendor, brings the popular chicken sandwiches and nuggets directly to boaters on the water.
The floating food delivery service operates seasonally, from April through September, and does not deliver on Sundays, as Chick-fil-A is closed that day. A chicken sandwich typically costs around $10, exclusive of tips. This service has become a well-liked addition to the Crab Island experience, satisfying boaters' cravings for Chick-fil-A while out at sea.
The idea for this delivery method arose as a response to the demand for Chick-fil-A in the boating community. It effectively combines popular fast food with the boating lifestyle in the area. The service is promoted on social media and has been well-received by those enjoying Crab Island.
Chick-fil-A itself has not officially commented on the arrangement, as it is run independently by a local third party rather than the company itself.
