TL;DR
Chicken Salad Chick is expanding in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area with a new location in Southlake, Texas. The location is owned by husband-and-wife duo John and Meggie Schissler, who have multiple locations in the area and are supporting Metroport Meals on Wheels with their pre-opening events.
During grand opening week, Southlake guests can expect to experience the Southern hospitality that Chicken Salad Chick is known for, with specials and giveaways that include:
Tuesday, June 20 - Free Chicken Salad for a Year - The first guest in line will receive one large Quick Chick of chicken salad per week for an entire year.

Husband-and-wife duo John and Meggie Schissler have flourished right along with their business, growing their family and community involvement alongside their Chicken Salad Chick restaurants. Their locations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area include Alliance, Hurst, Montgomery Plaza, Ridglea Village, Burleson and Midlothian. A Dallas native, Meggie Schissler’s career started in Chicken Salad Chick’s corporate office as a marketing assistant.
After watching the brand expand in the Southeast, she and John seized the opportunity to move back to Texas and be the first to share the Chick experience in Meggie’s home state.
“When we decided to take the leap into bringing Chicken Salad Chick home to Texas, John and I had fallen in love with the idea of owning a small business and making a difference in the community,” said Meggie Schissler, co-owner of Chicken Salad Chick Southlake. “Providing jobs to our employees and Chick hospitality to our guests has been even more rewarding than we imagined. We can’t wait to open our doors to Southlake, serving our made-from-scratch, Southern-style favorites to more loyal fans and newcomers to the brand.”
The Schisslers have also enjoyed giving back to important causes through their businesses over the years. With their Southlake opening, they will be supporting Metroport Meals on Wheels as part of their pre-opening Friends & Family events.
Chicken Salad Chick in Southlake will be open Monday - Saturday from 10:30 a.m. - 8 p.m.
