Only a few days out of the year see lots of major businesses close down, with Christmas Day and Thanksgiving Day being the pair that see the greatest number of closures. However, a few restaurant chains shut their doors on Easter as well, Chick-fil-A being an obvious example. But don’t worry, the majority of your favorite fast-food chains will be open on Easter.
Considering approximately 80% of Americans celebrate Easter in some capacity, as per data from Statista, it’s surprising more fast-food chains aren’t closed on that Sunday.
