While this is the first Chicken Salad Chick in Washington's Northern Virginia suburbs, it's the seventh
overall in the state with locations already established in
Christiansburg, Hampton, Mechanicsville, Richmond, Norfolk and Roanoke. Teaming up with her father,
Patrick Cavanaugh, and
father-in-law, Barry Chamberlin,
Oakton-born Devon Chamberlin of Nova Group, LLC is thrilled
to be the one to introduce the brand to her hometown area. Over the
next five years, she is looking to expand into nearby communities
such as Arlington, Vienna, McLean, Springfield, Reston and more. She already has a site in
Fairfax, which will be the next to
open.
"My first Chicken Salad Chick experience happened while I was
living in Tallahassee, Florida,"
said Devon Chamberlin, co-owner of
Chicken Salad Chick of Falls
Church. "I was immediately drawn to the customer service,
the freshness and quality of the food made in-house every day and
the welcoming energy of the restaurant. Their chicken salad was
hands-down the best in the area. After I moved back to Northern Virginia, I knew what was missing was
a local Chick!"
Chamberlin spent the past 10 years in the mental health field as
a social worker at residential treatment centers, inpatient
hospitals and Fairfax County Emergency Services. She had
been searching for a way to go into business for herself, still
helping people and deepening her ties to the local community. With
its mission to spread joy, enrich lives and serve others, Chicken
Salad Chick is the ideal new career path she was craving.
"I've always dreamed of being an entrepreneur and putting my
people skills to good use," added Chamberlin. "It's so rewarding to
build up others and spotlight their strengths. This restaurant has
a hometown dream team, starting with our manager from Vienna, Karen
Pollard. She and the rest of our talented crew can't wait to
introduce Chicken Salad Chick's one-of-a-kind hospitality right
here in our backyard."
Giving back to the community is an important focus for the
Falls Church team and the Chicken
Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support
CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers
throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family
events in Falls Church, the
restaurant will be raising money for Inova Fairfax Children's
Hospital. Chamberlin had an office on the oncology floor of the
hospital for a year during the pandemic, so it is a cause close to
her heart.
The Falls Church Chicken Salad Chick will be open Monday –
Saturday from 10:30 a.m. –
8 p.m. For more information, visit
