UPDATE – JAN 20, 2021
They are getting closer to opening – it’s just any second now – the newest location of Chicken King at 3411 Main Street in Bryant passed inspection by the Arkansas Department of Health on Tuesday morning, January 19th. They will definitely be open by January 29th. That’s when the wing restaurant will cut a ribbon as part of joining the Greater Bryant Chamber of Commerce. Stay tuned or else keep driving by the place. A drive-by peep in the window by this truly on Tuesday revealed a ready look. Read more in the previous article below.

Bryant is bursting with new business announcements and a new chicken restaurant is the latest. I hear you already… “anotherrrr chickennnn restaurannnnt??” Yes, and from what I can see, it’s necessary, because the reviews and photos on social media have me considering a visit to one of their other locations in Little Rock or North Little Rock so I can go ahead and try it out.
I’ve never been to a Chicken King before, so hopefully your comments will give some idea of what they are like. You can guess that they have chicken on the menu – mainly wings. But they also have pork chops, fish and shrimp. I spoke to the restaurant and they are not ready to give details just yet for their upcoming location.
I can however tell you that it’s located on Main Street in the same strip with Black Dog Boutique, Posh, Rocktown Music, Speakeasy Cafe, Sandy’s Nails and Taqueria Queretaro See the map here.I will also say that my estimate after peeping in the window is that they will be at least a couple of months away from opening. If you didn’t know, this is the business suite where Main Street Liquor formerly resided. For a certain amount of time, if you click here, you will still see photos of that previous storefront and drive-thru window. Watch MySaline for updates on this new business.
