Chick-fil-A may be coming to North Brunswick

NORTH BRUNSWICK – Another fast food restaurant may be coming to the township.

Chick-fil-A has filed an application with the township Zoning Board of Adjustment to renovate a portion of an existing building to accommodate an approximately 6,066-square-foot restaurant with dual drive-thru lanes, an ordering canopy, and a delivery canopy, as well as related site improvements, including lighting, signage and landscaping at the intersection of Route 1 and Commerce Boulevard.

The site is the former home of Bertucci’s restaurant.

A hearing on the application is scheduled for 7 p.m. Jan. 21 in the Court Room in the Municipal Complex, 710 Hermann Road.

The property is located in the township's Transitional Mixed Use Zoning District ("TMU Zone"), where restaurants with drive-thru lanes are not a permitted use.

Copies of the application, plans, maps, and other supporting materials, as applicable, are on file and available for public inspection during regular business hours, which are typically between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday in the office of the board, in the North Brunswick Municipal Complex.
