Palmdale is about to get a serious jolt of Nashville-style spice. Angry Chickz, the East Hollywood-born hot chicken chain, will open its first Palmdale restaurant on Friday, July 10, with doors scheduled to open at 11 a.m. The new outpost at 39332 10th St. W. brings the brand’s spicy tenders, sliders and bowls to the Antelope Valley for the first time, along with its multi-level heat scale and opening-day promotions.
Grand-opening plans
The first 100 guests through the door will score a limited-edition Angry Chickz jersey, and early visitors can enter an on-site raffle for a chance to win “Angry Chickz for a Year.” Doors open at 11 a.m., and the brand is also planning gift-card giveaways and other promotional items throughout the day. These details come from the company announcement republished on Franchising.com.
What to expect from the menu
The Palmdale shop is set to serve the full Angry Chickz lineup: Nashville hot chicken tenders, sliders and bowls, plus sides like Angry Mac, seasoned fries and the house Angry Chickz sauce. Guests can pick from six spice levels, starting with no-heat “Country” and climbing up to the signature “Angry” tier, which the brand flags with a warning and an optional waiver for the truly heat-obsessed. The menu and heat scale are listed on the company’s site at Angry Chickz.
Growth and local impact
The Palmdale opening is part of a rapid growth streak for the chain: the company says this will be Angry Chickz’s 37th restaurant in California and its 42nd location overall. The announcement adds that the new store will create local jobs as part of the rollout, while the brand continues to push into neighboring suburbs across Southern California and into Arizona, Nevada and Texas. Local coverage of the Palmdale debut is summarized by industry outlet WhatNow.
