The new Jack's Family Restaurant at 3530 Cummings Highway in Lookout Valley will open to customers Wednesday, at 5 a.m.
In an announcement Monday, Jack's said it will give the first 100 customers a free made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuit. And an online competition running through Wednesday will give one person a chance to win free Jack's for a year. The contest is listed on Jack's Facebook page, and is only open for customers in the Chattanooga area.
Jack's is a quick-service format restaurant with deep Southern roots and a menu featuring breakfast, burgers and fried chicken. Jack's also serves sales and hand-dipped milkshakes.
Jack's is privately-owned and based in Birmingham, Ala. The restaurant chain dates back originally to 1960 and Homewood, Ala.
The restaurant chain has more than 130 locations, but this is the first in Chattanooga. The local Jack's employs approximately 50 people and five managers and will be open daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.
