The Bloomington Chick-Fil-A announced on its Facebook page that the east side location will be closed temporarily for a remodel.

It will be closed starting Saturday (May 9). The post did not say how long the remodel will take.

While the location is closed, the Chick-Fil-A inside College Mall will operate 20 curbside spots like a drive-thru.

Customers can order ahead on the app, pull into a spot, and an employee will deliver the order to the vehicle. Traditional walk up ordering inside the mall remains an option.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
