STARTED FROM SCRATCH. BUILT ON TRAILBLAZING SPIRIT

In 1952, our founder, George Church Sr., began selling his homemade fried chicken right across the street from the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, pioneering the can-do attitude, crispy goodness, and hand-crafted flavors we’re known for today. Still, while our history is important to us, we’re that rare bird (pun intended) — a legacy brand that’s not stuffy, tired, or boring. We’ve launched a new brand image that’s contemporary, engaging, and deeply connected to our Texas roots, with innovation that includes new menu items your guests will love.
