Montana’s Third Chick-fil-A Restaurant Brings Approximately 130 Full- and Part-Time Jobs to Community, Honors 100 Local Heroes With Free Chick-fil-A Meals for a Year 


BILLINGS, Mont. (Jan. 12, 2023) – The first Chick-fil-A® restaurant in Billings will open on Thursday, Jan. 19. Chick-fil-A, Inc. has selected Lee Lewis as the independent franchised Owner/Operator of Chick-fil-A Billings.  

Located at 670 S. 24th St. W., near the intersection at Rosebud Drive, Chick-fil-A Billings will be open for dine-in, drive-thru and carry-out from 6:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Guests of Chick-fil-A Billings can also earn points on the Chick-fil-A® App when ordering via dine-in, drive-thru or carry-out. When joining the Chick-fil-A One® tiered membership program, guests receive points on every qualifying purchase which can be used to redeem available rewards.  

Locally Owned and Operated  
As full-time, hands-on leaders in their restaurants and communities, Chick-fil-A Owner/Operators proudly reside in the areas in which they serve.  

In Billings, Lewis will be responsible for all day-to-day activities of the business, including employing approximately 130 full- and part-time Team Members, serving guests and cultivating relationships with local organizations and businesses.  

Lewis was born in Georgia, and later graduated from the University of Georgia with a B.S. in Forestry and Natural Resources. Prior to beginning his journey with Chick-fil-A and being selected as Operator of Chick-fil-A Billings, Lewis was the owner of forestry and landscaping company, Vegetation Management Solutions LLC. An avid outdoorsman, Lewis is excited for his new adventure with Chick-fil-A in Montana and looks forward to building relationships and serving the community that he has called home since 2022.  

“I am thrilled to introduce Chick-fil-A’s hospitality and delicious food to the Billings community,” said Lewis. “I relish the opportunity to get involved in the community, not only right away but in big and meaningful ways. As Operator of Chick-fil-A Billings, I look forward to cultivating a welcoming and kind environment for all who enter.”  

Caring for the Billings Community 
In honor of the opening, Chick-fil-A, Inc. will donate $25,000 to Feeding America on behalf of the new restaurant. These funds will be distributed to partners in the greater Montana area to aid in the fight against hunger.  

Chick-fil-A Billings is recognizing 100 local heroes making an impact in the Billings area by providing them with free Chick-fil-A meals for a year.   

Lewis’s restaurant will be participating in Chick-fil-A Shared Table®, an initiative that redirects surplus food from the restaurant to local soup kitchens, shelters, food banks and nonprofits in need. To date, more than 15 million meals have been served nationwide from Chick-fil-A Shared Table donations.  

Team Member Investment 
Chick-fil-A Operators are committed to hiring, developing and retaining top talent and providing a positive work environment for people of all ages and backgrounds. Team Members have opportunities for flexible work hours and leadership growth, competitive pay and benefits, hands-on training and mentoring and the chance to apply for scholarships to support their continuing education.  

Delicious Food; Outstanding Customer Service  
Chick-fil-A is known for serving customers great-tasting food made with high-quality ingredients, including the original Chick-fil-A® Chicken Sandwich. Made with a real, whole, boneless breast of chicken with no added fillers, the breaded chicken is pressure cooked in fully-refined peanut oil. Chick-fil-A was one of the first in the industry to eliminate chicken raised with antibiotics to ensure guests have an option for high-quality food on the go. 

To complement the great-tasting chicken, fresh produce is delivered to Chick-fil-A restaurants up to six times a week for the best quality and flavor. The fresh ingredients are raised and grown by farmers who share the company's elevated quality and safety standards, so guests feel good about their meal.
