Chick-fil-A could replace former Friendly’s in Cherry Hill

CHERRY HILL – Chick-fil-A wants to demolish a long-vacant Friendly’s ice cream shop to build another restaurant here.

The 5,400-square-foot fast-food eatery would rise in an outlying area of the Garden State Pavilions on Route 70 near Cornell Avenue, according to an application before the township’s planning board.

About 1,500 square feet would be dedicated to indoor dining for 98 patrons at the fast-food chicken eatery.

The restaurant also would offer outdoor seating for 14 people and a “drive-thru, multilane fulfillment facility,” the application says.

The planning board is expected to consider the application at its Dec. 6 meeting.

The Friendly’s restaurant closed in September 2018 after operating for more than 15 years at the Cherry Hill shopping center.

The site is about a mile from an existing Chick-fil-A — with curbside delivery but no drive-thru lane — off Route 70 in the Market Place at Garden State Park.

Chick-fil-A also has local sites on the 400 block of Haddonfield Road, across from the Cherry Hill Mall, and on Route 70 near Marlkress Road.

Chick-fil-A says the planned eatery will provide 70 to 80 jobs, with up to 18 workers per shift.
