Spirit Day/Community Care Event Procedures at Chick-fil-A North Hills Crossing

Spirit Day will run from 6:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. All avenues for ordering will count. Drive-thru, dine in, and curbside through the CFA App.
When you dine in or pull up to our drive-through:
Please first let our Team Member know that you are there for the Spirit Day for your organization. We do NOT require a flyer so it’s important to mention your organization at the *beginning of your transaction* so the Team Member knows to press the Spirit Day button.
When placing an order through the app:
Guests will be instructed to input a Community Care Event code for their order. The code is: TLPTA. If you do not input this code, the order will not count. The code can also be found on the flyer.
