Bojangles restaurants coming to Texas, including Dallas-Fort Worth. Here’s what we know
Bojangles is coming (back) to Texas.
The Cajun-seasoned fried chicken fast food chain based in North Carolina is planning to open three franchise restaurants and 15 corporate locations across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex next year, according to a news release.
While those stores are coming the Dallas-Fort Worth area, they’ll be more on the Dallas side, with locations in Garland, Mesquite and Richardson.
The franchise locations are expected to open sometime in the first half of 2022, according to the release, while the corporate-owned restaurants will begin opening in the first quarter of that year.
These stores will be the first in the state since the chain pulled out years ago.
The chain will also have franchise locations in Houston, but has not announced plans to move into that market with any other stores.
“Get ready, Texans, because our delicious chicken and biscuits are headed your way, and we can’t wait to serve you up some real deal, Southern flavor like only Bojangles does,” said Jose Costa, Bojangles’ chief growth officer, in the news release. “We’re proud to be working alongside two experienced, multi-unit operators in LASH Foods and SAT Restaurant Group to make the move to Texas, and we look forward to the great successes that will come from those partnerships.”
