DRAPER, Utah (Feb. 4, 2026) – A new Chick-fil-A® restaurant will begin serving the Draper community at its newest location on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2026 at 6:30 a.m. Chick-fil-A, Inc. selected Lorin Warner as the local Owner-Operator of Chick-fil-A Hwy 15 & Bangerter. 

To celebrate the opening, Warner and team are calling on the community to show their spots on opening day! Whether it’s a full cow suit or a simple cow-spotted accessory, Guests of all ages are invited to join the fun. Anyone who visits the restaurant on opening day dressed in cow attire can redeem one free entrée* or kid’s meal inside the restaurant or in the drive-thru. 

Located at 13673 S 100 E, Chick-fil-A Hwy 15 & Bangerter will serve Guests Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., offering dine-in, drive-thru, carry-out, curbside, third-party delivery and Mobile Thru. Because Chick-fil-A restaurants are designed to serve the unique needs of each community, Chick-fil-A Hwy 15 & Bangerter will feature a playground for Guests with children. 

Locally Owned and Operated
Warner was proudly raised in the South Valley and is a longtime area resident whose entrepreneurial spirit has contributed to the local dining scene for more than a decade. Prior to joining Chick-fil-A, he founded two neighborhood-focused restaurant concepts – including Draper’s Honest Eatery – that created jobs, fostered community and strengthened the place he calls home. Those experiences taught him the importance of serving others and the power of building something that truly matters. 

“For 15 years, I’ve worked to build businesses that serve and strengthen our local communities, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to do that again with Chick-fil-A here in Draper,” said Warner. “I hope my story reminds others that when you believe in yourself and lead with care, incredible things can happen. Opening day is more than just serving great food; it’s about welcoming Guests and celebrating the teamwork that makes it all possible. I can’t wait to share that joy with the community and create a dining experience where lasting memories are made.” 

Warner’s journey to Chick-fil-A began in business school, when a course on service operations sparked his interest in the brand’s commitment to exceptional hospitality. Chick-fil-A’s principles aligned perfectly with his passion for the restaurant industry and his desire to make a difference in the community. Now, as the local Owner-Operator of Chick-fil-A Hwy 15 & Bangerter, Warner is excited to expand his impact and create a place where people feel cared for and connected.  

Caring for the Draper Community
Warner is committed to giving back to the Draper community by:  

  • Celebrating the opening with a $25,000 donation from Chick-fil-A, Inc. to Feeding America in honor of the new restaurant. These funds will be distributed to partners in the greater Salt Lake City area to aid in the fight against hunger.
