Chick-fil-A restaurants are closed on Sundays because of the chain's devout Christian ownership. According to the company website, founder Truett Cathy "saw the importance of closing on Sundays so that he and his employees could set aside one day to rest and worship if they choose."
In Rhode Island, Chick-fil-A has locations in Providence and Warwick.
