Bojangles is officially clocking in for breakfast in McKinney next Tuesday, March 17, bringing its biscuit-heavy lineup and Southern-style fried chicken to the South Central Expressway corridor after months of visible construction at the site. The standalone spot will serve biscuit breakfasts, chicken sandwiches, tenders and the chain’s signature sides, adding another quick-service player to a busy retail strip.

As reported by Community Impact, staff at the new restaurant have confirmed the March 17 opening date and listed the address as 200 S. Central Expressway. The outlet, citing the company’s menu, notes that the McKinney location will feature biscuit sandwiches, seasoned fries, macaroni and cheese, dirty rice and the sugary Bo‑Berry Biscuit, along with several other staples already familiar to Texas fans.

What To Expect Inside

The Bojangles locations page for McKinney lists the restaurant at 200 South Central Expressway and shows that it is already set up to take online orders and job applications. The company leans on its made-from-scratch biscuit branding, promising all-day breakfast sandwiches alongside chicken sandwiches and tenders, all of which are expected to be in full rotation when doors open.

Construction And Permits

State project records list a Bojangles new-build at 210 South Central Expressway, with construction activity recorded in 2025 and an estimated cost of about $1.4 million, according to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. That official entry indicates the standalone building wrapped most of its primary work last year and cleared accessibility reviews in time for the planned March opening.

Why It Matters

The McKinney opening is part of Bojangles’ broader Texas push. The Houston Chronicle has reported that the chain is adding multiple sites across the state as it grows toward more than 850 restaurants across roughly 25 states nationwide. For McKinney residents, that corporate expansion strategy translates into more late-morning biscuit runs, another drive-thru option along a heavily trafficked stretch of South Central Expressway and a handful of new service jobs tied to the restaurant’s debut.
