Chicken Salad Chick of Dublin is owned and operated by Jen Crichfield. Dublin marks Crichfield's second Chicken Salad Chick restaurant, following the opening of her first location in Westerville in June 2019. Crichfield has over a decade of corporate experience in client relationship management. Chicken Salad Chick's mission to “Spread Joy, Enrich Lives and Serve Others” drew her to the brand and sparked her interest in franchising. She made the decision to leave her corporate career behind to pursue a more balanced work life that allowed her to prioritize her family and community.

“It’s so rewarding to be opening my second Chicken Salad Chick restaurant in my hometown,” said Jen Crichfield, owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Dublin. “Since launching my first location in 2019, I’ve been incredibly grateful for the way the Westerville community has welcomed and supported us. It’s been an amazing journey so far, and that’s why I knew now was the right time to introduce Chicken Salad Chick to a new community. I’m excited to continue expanding and to serve fresh, high-quality, scratch-made dishes in Dublin.”

Chicken Salad Chick offers a variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh sides, soups, sandwiches, and desserts. The Dublin restaurant offers in-restaurant dining, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Dublin team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Dublin, the restaurant will be raising money for the Dublin Education Foundation, a non-profit supporting innovative educators by providing grant funding for enriching opportunities in Dublin City Schools.

Chicken Salad Chick of Dublin will be open Monday – Saturday from 10am – 8pm.
