Chick-fil-A Files Plans to Relocate East Nine Mile Road Location
February 17, 2025
The Chick-fil-A on East Nine Mile Road is proposing to relocate nearly across the street to a new building.
Chick-fil-A at 1757 East Nine Mile Road has submitted plans to construct a new restaurant on the site of the former Dodge’s at 1710 East Nine Mile Road.
“Chick-fil-A proposes the relocation in order to help improve customer service, customer safety, and overall restaurant operations,” Jason Toole wrote in a letter last week to the Escambia County Development Review Services Department.
The Dodge’s Southern Style convenience store on East Nine Mile Road closed abruptly in early September 2024.
Chick-fil-A plans to demolish the existing convenience store and construct a new 5,249-square-foot restaurant with seating for 62 inside and an additional 14 seats on an outdoor patio. The new location will feature dual drive-thru lanes to increase vehicle stacking capacity, order point and meal delivery canopies, and expanded parking with 67 total spaces, according to an application filed with Escambia County.
The proposal, filed on February 14, is still in the pre-application stage and has not yet been scheduled for a public meeting.

As a 30 year resident of Hillview dr, this would be terrible for our neighborhood. There is so much trash on the road since they put Foosackly’s there now I can’t keep up with picking it up. We are always moving dead pets out of the road because of all the traffic. Please consider the residents living around here if they do build here. Thank you.
They already have the Best Customer Service in town. I think that change would be great for traffic issues.
Yes, the restaurant needs a new location. It would be lovely if plans for the new building included a play place. My grandsons love playing before they eat. Plus, that location is near where they live.
Great idea from Chick-Fil-A to move this store. The location in the Target parking lot has been getting loved to death for ages. Got worse after the Covid changes to increase drive thru and delivery service usage. Many times had to park in the adjacent lot and walk over due to congestion in their parking lot.
This would be such a great thing for this location, they need the space!
I quit going
cause no parking to go sit down and eat.
Hope the sitting area will be ample…
Why not hudt ad to the Dodge building?
This is a good news. The current location is a tight squeeze for the amount of volume it gets. I miss the Dodges but Chick-fil-A moving into that abandoned location is a good move.
