A new Chick-fil-A restaurant is opening in the Orleans community in the Ottawa area on Thursday, June 25 at 10:30 a.m.
The brand selected Natasha Vaux as the local Owner-Operator of the new location at 4280 Innes Rd.
Vaux first experienced the brand on trips to Florida with her husband Pete, where she was impressed by a level of hospitality she never expected from a quick-service restaurant. Enjoying a Deluxe Chicken Sandwich with Freshly Brewed Sweetened Iced Tea became a tradition on every trip to the U.S.
When the company’s first Ottawa-area location opened in 2024, she recalled: “We made sure to join the lineup bright and early to be part of the energy and celebration on opening day. We were all craving that unmistakable Chick-fil-A flavour, and that first bite didn’t disappoint. The Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich is perfectly seasoned and truly in a league of its own.”
Vaux’s vision as a local Owner-Operator is to create a restaurant that stands out for its exceptional hospitality and positive community impact.
“I believe in leading by example, and coaching and guiding Team Members to deliver Chick-fil-A’s signature ‘Second-Mile Service’,” said Vaux, who brings years of Ottawa-based leadership experience from the automotive industry.
“My ambition is to authentically weave Chick-fil-A Orleans Innes Rd into the fabric of our community,” she said. “We want to ensure that the restaurant is not just a place to eat but a partner in local growth and well-being.”
A Moove-In Party is scheduled for opening day. Anyone who visits the restaurant on Thursday, June 25 dressed in cow spots can redeem one complimentary entrée or kid’s meal inside the restaurant or in the drive-thru. Whether it’s a full cow suit or a simple cow-spotted accessory, guests of all ages are invited to join the fun.
