When it was first announced Chick-fil-A was coming to Las Vegas, the news was met with euphoric glee, and not just because Euphoric Glee would make a great band name.<\/p>\n

Later, we learned not only was Chick-fil-A coming to Las Vegas, but multiple locations were planned, with “eight or 10” in the works over the next five years, according to Chick-fil-A officials. We were beside ourself.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
Behold, the best thing since lap dances.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Three Chick-fil-A restaurants are right around the corner, so we figured it was a good time to check on the progress of the three spots likely to fulfill our chicken sandwich fantasies first.<\/p>\n

Two of the three Chick-fil-A locations are in a city called Henderson, affectionately called “Hendertucky” by locals. First, we checked out the Chick-fil-A at 460 N. Stephanie St., near the corner of Warm Springs and Stephanie.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
Let’s step it up, construction dudes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Things are looking good at the Stephanie St. location, with the exterior of the building in place. Construction of non-casino establishments seem to take an agonizingly long time in Las Vegas, but Chick-fil-A will be here soon enough.<\/p>\n

Both Henderson locations will debut in 2017.<\/p>\n

Here’s another look at the Stephanie St. Chick-fil-A.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
Who needs windows? Just brine and fry something, already!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Next, we fly over to 9925 S. Eastern Ave. in Henderson, to something called the Diamond Summit Plaza. Locals know this address because it was the former home of the now-closed Nacho Daddy. Don’t freak out, Nacho Daddy recently opened on The Strip, and the downtown Nacho Daddy is doing brisk business.<\/p>\n

Here’s the Chick-fil-A at 9925 S. Eastern Ave.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
Plenty of room for the long line on opening day. We trust slipping $20 to the bouncer will get us past the velvet rope.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This location appears to be no further along than the Stephanie location, but we have decided not to wail or gnash our teeth about it. Much.<\/p>\n

Here’s another look.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
It’s like each location is copying off the other’s test.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So, those are the two frontrunners.<\/p>\n

Also in the mix is a location a lot closer to The Strip, at the corner of West Sahara Ave. and Rancho Drive. This Chick-fil-A will be right across the street from the Palace Station casino.<\/p>\n

Here’s a peek.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
The Rancho location is likely to be your go-to spot if you’re a Las Vegas visitor. Unless you have Chick-fil-A back home, then you’ll want In-N-Out, just up the road. And we hate you.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There’s a structure going up at this site, but it’s unclear if this is the Chick-fil-A building. There’s no Chick-fil-A signage here as there is at the other two sites.<\/p>\n

If it’s retail space, that means the Chick-fil-A will be built from the ground up in the open space near the construction, and this location is even further off than the other two outlets.<\/p>\n

Life is filled with disappointment, but there’s are waffle potato fries at the end of the tunnel.<\/p>\n

\"Chick-fil-A
Here’s how the space looks from the Palace Station side. The thing we do for you.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So, our anticipation grows, and we expect we’ll spend the next few months learning more about how to get the most of Chick-fil-A when it arrives.<\/p>\n

For example, did you know that if you order a kids meal at Chick-fil-A and decline the toy, you’ll get a free ice cream or larger drink or order of fries?<\/p>\n

It’s time to bone up on your Chick-fil-A hacks<\/a>!<\/p>\n

You’ll also want to prepare for the arrival of Chick-fil-A by downloading the Chick-fil-A app<\/a>. Rumor has it you’ll get a free sandwich if you do.<\/p>\n

We should also, collectively, start lobbying Chick-fil-A<\/a> to keep its restaurants open on Sunday. Just in Las Vegas. Because Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

Believe us when we say we’ll be keeping a close eye on the progress at any and all Chick-fil-As in or near Las Vegas, and you’ll find us camping out as opening dates near.<\/p>\n

Oh, and if you’re not thrilled about Chick-fil-A’s controversial past, get up-to-speed on why you should chill out<\/a> and enjoy the chicken sandwich gloriousness the minute it arrives in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
