I remember when the only way to get Chick-fil-a in NYC was to have access to the NYU food court, where they had a very small operation and limited service. Glad to see the chain continue to expand in NYC
By fast food standards, CFA is pretty decent. I don't eat fast food much, but I'll have CFA here and there.

Tried it today.
Chicken was very good as always.
Place was pretty packed but I ordered on the app and didn't wait long for my good

It was probably 30 percent more than I'm used to paying out of state probably in line with 86th street prices.

And while I didn't get fries the people ordering fries had their fries piled to the top of the box.

Dunno. Maybe my tastebuds are “special”, but I just don’t feel like their food has flavor. For the same price, I’m going just about anywhere else. Wendy’s has good spicy nugs, KFC or Popeye’s has better tenders, and hell I’d take a McDeath Filet O Fish over a CFA sandwich. Fries have generally gotten good, so the waffle fries are disappointing as they could be so much more than just fried potatoes with no flavoring or anything distinct, and they’ve always been kinda…idk, soft isn’t the word, but they aren’t crispy and didn’t have anything redeeming for flavor or mouth feel; I even liked Culver’s foodservice crinkle fries better and found them to be so disappointing that they almost brought the rest of the meal down. Then again, maybe they’ve changed. I think I last went in 2007 or 2008 after I’d already given up on finding tasty food there.

I’ve always loved tjhe debates about Riverdale and Marble Hill not being the Bronx.

If you live in Marble Hill and get called to jury duty, guess where you resort? The Bronx County Courthouse.

According to USPS that 10463 zip code- it’s a Bronx zip code.

It’s part of the Bronx community district 8.

It’s covered by the 50th precinct - also the Bronx.

Area codes 718, 646 and 929. Not 212.

Marble Hill is part of Manhattan, however all land services are handled by the Bronx.

Did you know Marble Hill was connect to Manhattan, then became an island of it's own before being connected to the Bronx?

Thanks. I know all about it. I'm someone who enjoys history and like to be knowledgeable of the place I live.

Bronx area code, Bronx zip code, Bronx police station, Bronx District. Seems like the Bronx to me.
