Chick-fil-A in Kettering, Ohio, now mandates that teenagers under 17 must be accompanied by an adult over 21 to dine in, aiming to ensure a safe environment. This policy echoes a rule from a nearby shopping center and coincides with the back-to-school period. The change has sparked significant backlash from the community, with critics arguing it discriminates against well-behaved teens. A Chick-fil-A spokesperson noted that policies may vary by location, reflecting unique local circumstances. Similar restrictions have been seen in other franchises, citing incidents of unacceptable behavior from minors.
The Kettering Chick-fil-A requires anyone 17 and under to be accompanied by an adult over 21 to maintain a safe and respectful environment for all guests.
A former hospitality manager criticized the new policy, predicting significant financial loss for the restaurant due to its proximity to local schools.
