Popular fast food restaurant Chick-fil-A is currently being sued by a woman who was served cleaning solution instead of coffee. According to her suit, filed September 24th, the incident took place at a Chick-fil-A location in Stockbridge, Georgia. The plaintiff had asked for a coffee refill and an employee served her from a pitcher filled with cleaning solution.
Corinne Anderson, a paralegal from Peavy Law, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC), “It didn’t take long for our client to realize something was wrong with the coffee and she quickly informed the Chick-fil-A employees.”
“[The plaintiff] started having intestinal issues and discomfort in her throat, and started seeing gastroenterologists,” Anderson continued. According to the AJC, the plaintiff’s medical bills from the incident total more than $3,890 and she’s currently still seeking treatment.
Paul White, the owner of the Stockbridge Chick-fil-A franchise, told the AJC that “food safety and quality” are his top priorities. He added that he is currently investigating the plaintiff’s claims and, according to the suit, Chick-fil-A has admitted that they served the woman cleaning solution.
A video emerged showing the incident play out and Chick-fil-A has offered to pay the plaintiff’s medical expenses. Anderson notes that they are still seeking retribution for “mental and physical suffering.”

Like the Starbucks case, we’re sure the Chick-fil-A incident was an accident. But again, let this be a lesson for us fast food/coffee lovers — if the drink tastes bad, love your gut and order something else.
