An alumna of Texas Tech University, Laura Garrison is thrilled to return to the Lubbock area with Chicken Salad Chick. She is a restaurant industry veteran, owning several Taco Bell locations in addition to her first Chick in Amarillo. With her experience comes an appreciation for the communities she does business in and the relationships she develops with her guests. 

“Chicken Salad Chick is a really unique brand, focused on spreading joy, enriching lives and serving others. Our Lubbock team looks forward to welcoming in our neighbors and getting involved with their special events. We love becoming part of their lives, whether it’s enjoying a meal in our dining room or on our patio, picking up a few Quick Chicks to go or letting us cater their family and work gatherings. It’s all an honor and a privilege for us to be part of,” said Garrison.  

With this new Lubbock location, Garrison has partnered with Meng Moua to oversee daily operations of the restaurant. Moua is originally from Alaska but married a Lubbock native last year, quickly settling into the area. “Lubbock is a fantastic community full of wonderful people and great colleges,” said Moua. “Laura and I can’t wait to throw open our doors and do what Chicken Salad Chick does best, which is serve fresh, flavorful varieties of chicken salad, made from scratch every day.”   

Chicken Salad Chick gives back to important causes throughout the year, with the CSC Foundation raising money for local food banks and CURE Childhood Cancer. With the Lubbock opening, the local team will be supporting the Texas Girls & Boys Ranch as part of their pre-opening Friends & Family events. The Ranch provides a safe haven for children of abuse and neglect, providing counseling, tutoring and other specialized services to heal hearts and transform lives.
