Located at 2419 Laurens Road in Greenville, S.C., the new 3,900-square-foot restaurant boasts a variety of new features designed to enhance the customer experience and propel the 700-unit chain to its next level of success.

“This grand opening is just the beginning of what’s next for new and existing Bojangles’ locations,” said Randy Icard, vice president of construction and development for Bojangles’. “The new concept showcases our commitment to our guests’ experience and to operational excellence.”

A distinctive, contemporary exterior combines sophisticated materials like brick, tile and steel canopies. When guests enter the new restaurant, they will be greeted by bold graphics that celebrate the brand’s heritage, such as “Famous Chicken ‘n Biscuits” and “Made from Scratch Since 1977.” Guests will be captivated by a “Biscuit Theater” where they can witness biscuits being made fresh every 20 minutes by a Bojangles’ Master Biscuit Maker. Colored crocks replace steel warming trays to give the food display area a more inviting appearance, with increased use of glass adding to the visual appeal.

In addition to putting Bojangles’ fantastic food in the spotlight, the dining room has been enhanced with free Wi-Fi, multi-device charging stations, unique high-top community tables and a variety of interesting seating options to accommodate different-sized groups, including classic Adirondack chairs. New uniforms for all Bojangles’ team members complete the updated look. To view images of Bojangles’ new restaurant concept, click here.
