The Chick-fil-A at Charleston Town Center Mall will permanently close on 31 December 2026.

The Chick-fil-A at Charleston Town Center Mall in West Virginia will permanently close on 31 December 2026, owner-operator Alan Smith announced on Tuesday.

The closure follows the mall owner Hull Property Group's announcement that it would close the interior of the Charleston Town Center. Smith said in a social media post that although uncertainty remains about the exact timing of the mall's closure, continuing operations into 2027 would present logistical challenges that make remaining at the current location unviable.

Smith, who has operated the location for 34 years, said the decision was not his to make but expressed confidence that all options had been weighed before the final decision was reached. He said there are no plans for relocation and committed to supporting his team through the transition while maintaining service standards until the final day of operations.
