Haven’t heard of Slim Chickens? Well, you have now. Although this Arkansas-based chicken joint boasts 100+ locations in 19 states, they don’t yet have a location in Alabama. However, that is all about to change. Earlier this year, Slim Chickens announced their plans to open several restaurants in cities like:

  • Tuscaloosa
  • Madison AND Huntsville
  • Birmingham
  • Pell City
  • Florence
  • Auburn
  • Montgomery
  • Dothan
  • Enterprise
  • Mobile
  • Muscle Shoals

Two restaurants are currently under construction in Tuscaloosa (located at 635 Skyland Boulevard and  2520 McFarland Boulevard). In addition, Slim Chickens was recently approved to construct a new location in Muscle Shoals. We can’t wait to try it!
