You don’t have to wait in line at food trucks for sweet tea and waffle fries.

The District got its very own taste of Southern comfort food on Wednesday with a new Chick-fil-A storefront located at the D.C. USA shopping center on 3100 14th St.

The Atlanta-based fried chicken fast food chain kicked off their expansion with a “First 100” promotion on Tuesday, which gave the first 100 people in line outside the restaurant one free meal per week for a year. The giveaway were strict, limited only to chicken-lovers with an eligible District zipcode who remained in their spots until the restaurant’s grand opening.

The Columbia Heights branch is the District’s second – the first is located within a Catholic University food court. Neighborhood magazine Forrest Hills Connection also reported that a third location is underway on 4422 Connecticut Ave.
