Our Story
Slim Chickens was founded on a simple promise: serve the best chicken tenders possible. Since opening our first restaurant in Fayetteville, Arkansas, in 2003, the brand has grown across the United States and internationally while remaining committed to fresh food, Southern hospitality, and genuine guest connections.
At the heart of Slim Chickens are 100% all-natural premium tenderloins, marinated in our signature Southern-style buttermilk recipe and hand-breaded to order. This commitment to quality, paired with exceptional hospitality, has made Slim Chickens one of the fastest-growing restaurant brands in the industry.
