Big news for Palatka neighbors!

A new Chick-fil-A is planned along State Road 19, bringing another close-by spot for breakfast runs, quick lunches, and dinner on the way home. With the St. Johns River and Memorial Bridge just down the road, this is one more sign that our little corner of Northeast Florida is growing and getting more everyday conveniences without losing that small-town feel. If you live, work, or drive through Palatka, keep an eye on SR-19 — changes like this can mean more options, more jobs, and more reasons to stay local.
