The anticipation of having Duluth's first-ever Chick-fil-A, built this year in front of the Miller Hill Mall, open it's for the first time has hit a fever pitch.

The building, which many have noted looks bigger than what was expected, looks ready to go, and Chick-fil-A management has been providing fun updates on what to expect.

For example, in October Chick-fil-A made a surprise announcement that made Northland kids happy. They posted on social media that the new restaurant had built an indoor playground "just in time for our snowy winter season to arrive".

The video provided a glimpse of the playground, which features a slide.

Now, Chick-fil-A is ready to open its doors to the public and let kids enjoy that playground.
