Restaurant hosts Moove-In Party to celebrate opening with community
ORLEANS, ON (JUNE 22, 2026) – A new Chick-fil-A® restaurant will begin serving the Orleans community at its latest location in the Ottawa area on Thursday, June 25 at 10:30 a.m. Chick-fil-A, Inc. selected Natasha Vaux as the local Owner-Operator of Chick-fil-A Orleans Innes Rd.
To celebrate, Vaux and team are inviting the community to show their spots at a Moove-In Party on opening day! Anyone who visits the restaurant on Thursday, June 25 dressed in cow spots can redeem one complimentary entrée* or kid’s meal inside the restaurant or in the drive-thru. Whether it’s a full cow suit or a simple cow-spotted accessory, Guests of all ages are invited to join the fun. Since 1995, the Cows have been a beloved part of Chick-fil-A, encouraging humans to skip burgers and “Eat Mor Chikin.” Now it’s time for Orleans to join the herd with its own Moove-In Party.
Located at 4280 Innes Rd., Chick-fil-A Orleans Innes Rd will serve Guests Monday through Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., offering dine-in, drive-thru, carry-out and mobile app ordering.
Locally Owned and Operated
Vaux first experienced Chick-fil-A on trips to Florida with her husband Pete, where she was impressed by a level of hospitality she never expected from a quick-service restaurant. Enjoying a Chick-fil-A Deluxe Chicken Sandwich with Freshly Brewed Sweetened Iced Tea became a tradition on every trip to the U.S.
When Chick-fil-A’s first Ottawa-area location opened in 2024, she recalled, “We made sure to join the lineup bright and early to be part of the energy and celebration on opening day. We were all craving that unmistakable Chick-fil-A flavour, and that first bite didn’t disappoint. The Original Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich is perfectly seasoned and truly in a league of its own.”
Vaux’s vision as a local Owner-Operator is to create a Chick-fil-A restaurant that stands out for its exceptional hospitality and positive community impact. “I believe in leading by example, and coaching and guiding Team Members to deliver Chick-fil-A’s signature ‘Second-Mile Service’,” said Vaux, who brings years of Ottawa-based leadership experience from the automotive industry.
Beyond the restaurant doors, Vaux is looking forward to expanding her work with local non-profits as an Owner-Operator. “My ambition is to authentically weave Chick-fil-A Orleans Innes Rd into the fabric of our community,” she said. “We want to ensure that the restaurant is not just a place to eat but a partner in local growth and well-being.”
Caring for the Orleans Community
Vaux is committed to giving back to the Orleans community by:
- Celebrating the opening with a $25,000 donation from Chick-fil-A, Inc. to Second Harvest in honour of the new restaurant. These funds will be distributed to partners in the greater Ottawa area to aid in the fight to end hunger.
- Participating in the Chick-fil-A Shared TableTM program, which redirects surplus food to local non-profits, helping to create more than 232,000 meals nationwide to date.
- Creating approximately 100 jobs.
