Mary Williams+FollowChick-Fil-A opens on Mack Ave—here’s the real scoopChick-Fil-A just landed on Mack Avenue, and while the food lives up to the hype, the setup might catch you off guard. There’s no indoor seating—just a small patio (not ideal for Detroit winters) and a busy drive-thru that spilled onto Mack on opening day. Parking is tight, so expect to walk if you visit during peak hours. The chicken sandwich was spot-on, and the staff handled the rush well, but the lack of space and long waits could be a dealbreaker for some. Will these growing pains fade, or is this just how it’ll be? #Food #GrossePointe #DetroitEats00Share
