We're opening Florida's first originally built drive-thru-only location!
"Big things are happening," Chick-fil-A Vero Beach posted on Facebook in April 2024. This location is the only newly-built Drive-Thru...
Chick-fil-A Vero Beach is locally owned and operated by Michael Kelley who has been with Chick-fil-A for over a decade. Originally from Miami, FL, Michael attended Wheaton College In Illinois and graduated with a Business degree and History/Bible Minor.
In Concord, NC Michael started his CFA journey working as a team member where he met his future wife Jamison who was a local teacher. They now cherish their family life with their three sons: Luke, Stephen, and Matthew. Michael knew quickly that he wanted to become an Operator and set his focus on learning all he could within the Chick-fil-A brand.
Relocating to Vero Beach in 2013, Michael was chosen to Operate the then Chick-fil-A Indian River Mall location and excited to become part of the Vero Beach community. In May of 2016, he opened the Vero Beach location and is honored to be named Operator of the second location, East Vero DTO, slated to open in late 2024. Michael is passionate about creating a caring culture within his restaurant and strives to develop those around him.
In his free time, he enjoys spending time playing/coaching recreational basketball and soccer.
At Vero Beach we have a set of core values that define our team: being caring and demonstrating kindness to others, exhibiting initiative and unwavering commitment, fostering positivity with genuine enthusiasm, working with both hustle and heart, and lifting others up through service.

By far the best and fastest experience at a Chick-fil-A drive thru I have ever experienced! We drove up to find 20+ cars in line, and were driving away with our food 7 minutes later. Super fast, efficient, and friendly workers! - Kinsey Kliment
Polite efficient staff. Great food. What more can you ask for? You guys do a EXCELLENT job! Thank you! - Kelly
Good tasting food, portion sizes, and staff. I’ve never seen so many employees catering to the needs of guests before. Everything was clean. Lines moved swiftly. Pick up area and secondary needs area off to the side was convenient. Parking and ingress/egress were acceptable. Definite pride of ownership at this location. - Chris Clark
Always a pleasure. Nice to be reminded of how the world used to be! Very family oriented and wholesome environment! Great service! - Gary Franta
