I have never been to a Chick-fil-A. Both KFC's left town some time ago. Lee's Famous Recipe is popular, and I love it. So do all kids and grandkids.

Went once on a layover at Newark. You are not missing much. It's edible, that's about it. Though the Grilled Market Salad is well worth eating - at least in that location.
