Chick-fil-A Opens Floating Restaurant on Table Rock Lake
Boaters on Table Rock Lake have a new reason to drop anchor, Chick-fil-A has officially opened its first ever floating restaurant right on the water.
The restaurant, built on a massive barge, features a full drive-thru lane designed exclusively for boats. Customers simply pull up to the window, place their orders, and sail away with their nuggets, sandwiches, and waffle fries.
“We wanted to create something truly unique for Branson,” said store operator Kyle Matthews. “This location lets lake goers grab their favorite meal without ever leaving the water.”
Long lines of boats were already forming Saturday afternoon as word spread about the grand opening. Locals say it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen on Table Rock Lake.
Officials confirmed the floating Chick-fil-A will operate regular hours and yes, it will still be closed on Sundays, even out on the water.
