Cienega Triangle

Meet Restaurant Operator

Stanley Webster

Stanley came from humble beginnings, growing up in Madison, Alabama. He was raised by a single mother, Belynda, who worked three minimum-wage jobs to make ends meet. Stanley decided he wanted to make Chick-fil-A a career. In 2012 he moved to Los Angeles attracted to the area’s rich diversity, innovation and creativity. Not long after that he joined Chick-fil-A, Inc.’s Leadership Development Program. At 26, Stanley was selected as the new franchised Owner-Operator of a Chick-fil-A restaurant in downtown Philadelphia. From the start, he focused on investing in his team, believing that their growth would lead to the restaurant’s success. While in Philadelphia, Stanley partnered with organizations like Covenant House, raising funds to house homeless youth, and served as a mentor for Big Brothers Big Sisters. During his time in Philadelphia, Stanley awarded over 20 Chick-fil-A leadership scholarships and dedicated himself to supporting and mentoring his team, just as his first Operator had done for him years ago. In 2020 Stanley moved back to Los Angeles to open Cienega Triangle Chick-fil-A. He has been the independent Owner-Operator there since. He continues to prioritize care and culture. Stanley continues to ‘pay it forward.’ He became the first Los Angeles Chick-fil-A Operator to partner with After School All-Stars Quest Program, a comprehensive college and workforce readiness initiative that challenges junior and senior high school students to gain skills critical to employability. He also supports the LadyLike Foundation, a faith-based non-profit organization whose purpose is to educate, empower and inspire young women living in underprivileged communities. Stanley also is a part of Chick-fil-A’s Shared Table program, which donates prepared but unserved food to local food banks and soup kitchens. Stanley doesn’t forget where he came from, or those who helped him get to where he is today. He seeks to be a mentor and guide others in the way Norman did for him.
