Chick-fil-A customers won’t be able to sample their favorite fare on Christmas Day, according to a report by CNN.

This year, Christmas Day falls on a Saturday. That means the Atlanta-based chain’s roughly 2,600 national locations will be closed for two consecutive days. The chain will reopen for business on Monday, Dec. 27.

Chick-fil-A is closed on Sundays because of its devout Christian ownership.

The restaurant chain is scheduled to be open on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, though, according to a blog post from last year. New Year’s Eve falls on a Friday, and New Year’s Day is on a Saturday.

Chick-fil-A said hours vary by restaurant location, so be sure to check with your closest Chick-fil-A to see if it is open on New Year’s.
