Chick-fil-A is set to open its first standalone Minnesota restaurant outside the Twin Cities metro.

The company announced today that its new Rochester restaurant will be ready for an opening on Feb. 1. The franchise, located in the Crossroads Shopping Center next to Chipotle, will be owned locally by Matt Stockdale.

Chick-fil-A plans to hire more than 100 full and part-time employees for the Rochester location. The fried chicken powerhouse is one of the nation's fastest growing food chains, now with over 2,000 locations.
