“Chicken salad has a certain glamour about it. Like the little black dress, it is chic and adaptable anywhere” — Laurie Colwin, “Home Cooking” 

The first Indiana franchise of the Alabama-based Chicken Salad Chick fast-casual chain will be among the leaseholders in the latest stage of the 160-acre Jeffersonville Town Center development project on Veterans Parkway east of I-65, which is scheduled for completion in early 2020.

Restaurant tenants in the previously completed retail space are Boombozz Pizza & Taphouse and Wild Eggs, both familiar Louisville area eateries, and the Town Center’s developers predict other fast-casual restaurants will come to the various buildings as the build-out continues.

Chicken Salad Chick offers 15 chicken salad recipes by the sandwich or the pound, organized in four categories, including traditional, savory, fruit & nutty and spicy. Pimento cheese and egg salad are also available, along with salads, sides and soups.
