Yet another popular chicken tendy franchise is expanding in the Tampa Bay area.
Arkansas-based chicken chain Slim Chickens will debut its first Wesley Chapel location on Thursday, Sept. 28 at 27244 Wesley Chapel Blvd, just down the street from The Grove shopping mall.
This will be the second Slim Chickens in the Tampa area. The first is actually located within Mac Dill Air Force Base.
The franchise is known for its buttermilk chicken tenders served with toast and fries, as well as salads, wraps and waffles. Plus, there's "Southern Sides" like fried okra, mushrooms and pickles, and classics like coleslaw, potato salad and mac and cheese.
Founded in 2005, Slim Chickens currently has 8 locations in Florida and over 200 locations around the country and overseas.
