Chicken Salad Chick of Kansas City – Liberty is owned and operated by husband-and-wife duo, Alan and Kendra Greenwood. Kansas City – Liberty marks the Greenwood’s second Chicken Salad Chick restaurant, following the opening of their first location in Lee’s Summit in December 2024. With a combined background in management and administration, the Greenwoods bring more than 20 years of leadership and expertise to restaurant ownership. Alan is also a veteran business owner, who served in the U.S. Army for 10 years. The couple was first introduced to Chicken Salad Chick through their son, who originally discovered the brand’s fresh, made-from-scratch chicken salad while away at college. When they tried it together as a family, they instantly became fans and eventually, franchise ownership became of interest.

“Alan and I are thrilled to grow our business portfolio with a second Chicken Salad Chick restaurant,” said Kendra Greenwood, owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Kansas City – Liberty. “After seeing the excitement and positive community impact from opening in Lee’s Summit, we knew we wanted to continue expanding. Our team has remained strong and dedicated, with several original members still part of our core crew. To us, that speaks volumes to the culture and environment we’ve built, and that foundation reinforced our confidence to open our new Chick. We feel even more prepared to bring the same level of service, quality and engagement here, and we’re excited to continue growing alongside this amazing community.”

Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh sides, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Kansas City – Liberty restaurant offers in-restaurant dining, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.

“We’re pleased to be expanding our footprint in the greater Kansas City area,” said Scott Deviney, CEO and president of Chicken Salad Chick. “Chicken Salad Chick offers more than just great food – we’ve created a welcoming place for people to gather while supporting the local communities we operate in. Our mission to ‘Spread Joy, Enrich Lives and Serve Others’ is at the heart of everything we do, and we’re confident the Greenwoods will bring that to life in Liberty. We look forward to Chicken Salad Chick becoming a beloved part of this community soon.”

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Kansas City – Liberty team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Kansas City – Liberty, the restaurant will be raising money for Hillcrest Hope, a transitional living program focused on helping unhoused people in the Northland of Kansas City achieve a secure, independent life.

Chicken Salad Chick of Kansas City – Liberty will be open Monday – Saturday from 10am – 8pm.
