Chicken Guy
25769 Sierra Center Blvd.,Wesley Chapel
Celebrity chef and “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives” host Guy Fieri finally debuted his latest chicken tender chain location in Wesley Chapel last month. The new Chicken Guy! outpost was officially announced back in August as the first in the Tampa Bay region. Co-founded in 2018 with Planet Hollywood founder Robert Earl, the chain’s menu primarily focuses on chicken tenders and Guy’s “Big Bite” chicken sandwiches, which are both served either grilled or “crispy fried.” There are also shakes, fries, mac and cheese, salads and more up for grabs. The chain currently has 13 locations across the country, with more on the way. The closest outpost in Winter Park faced eviction last March over $38K in unpaid rent, and a location in Livonia, Michigan shuttered abruptly last June.
