Slim Chickens, a leader in the “better chicken” segment of fast-casual restaurants, has expanded its fresh chicken and unparalleled flavor to the Old Cheney area of Lincoln, Nebraska. The expansion was spearheaded by restaurant veterans and local franchisees, Bill and Stacie Hooks, who have long-standing roots in the Lincoln community and look forward to sharing the Slim Chickens experience with neighbors and surrounding communities.
Located at 5805 S. 85th St., the restaurant opened on February 9 with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 10:30 a.m. This is the first of five locations Hooks plans on opening in the Cornhusker State; the second location is set to open in March. Slim Chickens restaurants in Nebraska will offer beer to of-age guests to accompany the fresh, hand-battered chicken and homemade dipping sauces, in addition to its popular iced tea flavors. The down-home Southern brand offers diners hand-breaded or grilled chicken tenders, paired with a choice of eight handmade dipping sauces or seven handmade wing sauces for exceptional flavor, which have earned admiration from both customers and critics. If guests want to switch it up, Slim Chickens also offers fresh salads, wraps, and chicken and waffles. To offset the savory side of the menu, rotating dessert flavors served in Mason jars are available.
