Golden Chick in Easley (by Walmart) has CLOSED. I drove by the other day and there was a large crane there (thought they were doing a new sign) so today I drove by and ALL the signs were gone. I drove by and asked this lady that was on the property and she said it was permanently closed and they had done so on Sunday.
When this first opened, I had bad service 3 times, and stopped going. Gave them another chance and started going once a week. I never saw more than one car in the parking lot. I think bad location as it's hard to see it when you drive in...
I don't think it was location as the two in Greenville and one in Greenwood have long closed too. None of them just caught on. Wonder how much longer the Spartanburg store hangs on?

Thats interesting, that store in Easley was a corporate store...surprised they gave up so quickly...honestly they need to be in a mall or something.
My thought would be don't come into Chick-fil-A, Bojangles, and Popeye's territory with an inferior product.
They're quite big in Texas, but they just didn't have the name brand recognition here that they do there. CFA, Zaxbys and Bojangles are all deep rooted here, that's tough to compete with.

Agreed expect Texans don't know a thing about good chicken. They need to stick to brisket, ribs, and red colored bbq sauce.

Must have never had or heard of Church's Chicken, Layne's, or Chicken Express. Raising Cane's (Layne's knockoff) and Popeye's are also quite common in Texas even though they started in Louisiana. Not to mention Chik-Fil-A and Zaxby's are also commonly found in Texas, although I'm surprised because Zaxby's is inferior to Layne's and Raising Cane's.
Also, bbq sauce is a crutch for inferior bbq. flame away
I always thought people might think "Golden Chick" was a Chinese restaurant...kinda like Golden Wok.
Speaking of chicken: It's good to know Popeye's is coming soon to Easley! They were rated #1 in chicken dining. I know the Greer store had to shut down for one day because they ran out of chicken! What does that tell ya?
And I heard Chic-Fil-A is moving to either the Belk shopping center or the old Kmart shopping center because they need a bigger place. They sure do! The parking is a nightmare with all the cars backed up to the road...
