Uniontown Welcomes First Chick-fil-A Restaurant
April 28, 2025
Restaurant Brings Approximately 100 Jobs to Community, Donates $25,000 to Address Food Insecurity
UNIONTOWN, Pa. (April 28, 2025) – The first Chick-fil-A restaurant in Fayette County is ready to serve Uniontown at its newest location opening on Thursday, May 1, 2025, creating approximately 100 jobs. Chick-fil-A, Inc. selected Key Smith to be the local Owner-Operator of Chick-fil-A Uniontown.
Located at 129 Matthew Drive, the new restaurant will serve Guests Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., with the drive-thru remaining open until 10 p.m. Guests can enjoy dine-in, drive-thru, carryout, mobile dine-in, catering and Mobile Thru services.
Locally Owned and Operated
“Chick-fil-A has always been more than just a job for me—it’s where I discovered my passion for serving others,” said Smith. “I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to open Chick-fil-A Uniontown and serve my neighbors in the region where I grew up. This restaurant will be a place where the community feels cared for and our team can unite in their shared commitment to hospitality.”
- Smith was raised in southwest Pennsylvania by parents who spent their careers in the restaurant industry, which sparked his early love for good food and warm hospitality.
- He began his Chick-fil-A journey in college as a Team Member. From there, he joined the
Chick-fil-A® Leadership Development Program, where he gained hands-on experience supporting restaurants across the country—and his co-worker, Makayla, became his fiancée along the way!
- Now, Smith is excited to return to southwest Pennsylvania, where he’ll plant roots and begin his next chapter as an Operator and a husband. He and Makayla will celebrate their wedding shortly after the restaurant opens.
Caring for the Fayette County Community
Smith is committed to giving back to the community by:
- Participating in the Chick-fil-A Shared Table® program, which redirects surplus food to local nonprofits and has helped to create over 35 million meals to date.
- Celebrating the opening with a $25,000 donation from Chick-fil-A, Inc. to Feeding America to support local hunger relief efforts across southwestern Pennsylvania.
- Recognizing 100 local heroes making an impact in the Fayette County community by providing them with free Chick-fil-A entrées for a year.
