As one chicken place closes, that was a few months ago, another one opens.  Or at least they are planning to open soon.

ST CLOUD DOES HAVE SEVERAL FAST FOOD CHICKEN PLACES

I know, as well as you do, that St. Cloud does have quite a few different fast food chicken places that are available to you.  They are all within about a mile of eachother, too.  But the thing is that they all have their own claim to fame.

One thing we don't have here in the area, is a Dave's Hot Chicken.  That is about to change.  We do have several locations of this particular restaurant, they are all basically centered in the Twin Cities metro area.  Also a location in Rochester, and in Fargo.  Now, there will be one a bit more centrally located.

THERE IS ANOTHER ONE THAT WILL BE OPENING SOON

The new Dave's Hot Chicken will be opening soon in the same complex as Barnes & Noble. Just across the parking lot.

If you drive by, you will see that the sign is up, permits are posted, and there is a QR code to scan.  I did scan it, and it shows that they are currently hiring.  They are hiring for both team members and shift leaders.  To me that means that they have already hired for both managers and assistant managers.  If you are interested in applying, here is the link.  Or you could always to to the location here in St. Cloud and scan the QR code and go from there.

ONLY BEEN OPEN ALMOST 10 YEARS WITH SOME CELEBRITY BACKING

Dave's Hot Chicken is known for their hot chicken, obviously. It started in 2017 with three childhood friends from East Hollywood with a late-night pop up.  Basically a food truck.  And now has expanded all over the country, mostly because of the help and backing from some celebrities.

High-profile fans like Drake (who later became a major investor), Samuel L. Jackson, and Maria Shriver helped amplify the brand. Bill Phelps (co-founder of Blaze Pizza) came on as CEO to help scale the business into a massive franchise.

WHEN WILL THE ST. CLOUD LOCATION OPEN

As to the actual open date here in St. Cloud, we don't have that as of yet.  I'm sure that will be coming as soon as the build out is completed and the staff has been hired.  Stay tuned!
