ST. LOUIS — Chicken Salad Chick, a fast-casual chicken salad restaurant, is expanding its St. Louis-area footprint with the June 26 opening of its Edwardsville location and a second Metro East store is planned for 2020.
The new Chicken Salad Chick location is at 2323 Plum St. in Edwardsville, part of Contegra Construction Co.'s new $6 million IronWorks retail development. IronWorks' first tenant, Sugarfire Smoke House, opened last week, and will be joined this summer by Strange Donuts and Global Brew Tap House.
Chicken Salad Chick's Edwardsville store is the first in Illinois for the Auburn, Alabama-based chain, which bills itself as "Southern-inspired." The chain is known for offering a dozen varieties of made-from-scratch chicken salad daily, along with salads, soups, sandwiches and desserts.
The chain entered the St. Louis-area market this year, with the opening of company-owned Chicken Salad Chick restaurants in Chesterfield in January and in Creve Coeur in April.
