The new restaurant will be owned and operated by husband-and-wife duo Lanier and Rod McLeod of RLM Restaurant Group.

Lanier and Rod McLeod opened their first Chicken Salad Chick restaurant in 2016 in Warner Robins City.

Later they added new locations in Newnan, Carrollton and Macon.

Lanier McLeod said: “For the past seven years, our wonderful restaurant guests have flooded through our doors with support and encouraged us to open locations in their hometowns. Their love and enthusiasm for our made-from-scratch chicken salad is our inspiration to continue to grow into new markets.

“Milledgeville is my second home. There has been so much anticipation from our guests around this opening, which has been really fun for us to know that the community shares the same excitement we do for Chicken Salad Chick. We can’t wait to serve them.”

As part of the opening celebrations, the first 100 guests that morning will be offered free chicken salad for a year.

Lanier McLeod added: “Through the years we have also formed a family within our company, and we love to watch these young people grow. It is so rewarding to see team members, who often start in high school, stick with our company and become shift leaders, assistant managers and general managers at our restaurants.”

Earlier this month, Chicken Salad Chick announced the acquisition of Atlanta-based bakery Piece of Cake for an undisclosed sum.
