Does anyone know what happened to the Golden Chick operation at 23rd & Penn? All of a sudden it closed with only a note for its customers: Due to circumstances beyond our control, Golden Chick is temporarily closing.
That was a brand new building, so it probably wasn't the health department that shut the operation down. Does anyone have the inside scoop about why it closed and/or when it will re-open?

It was bought by Betty White and it was closed for some remodeling for her design taste. It'll reopen soon and on the Grand Opening day, Betty White will make a personal appearance.

I too am wondering the same thing, they acted as if it was only going to be closed a few days or a week, now it's been weeks if not longer and says closed indefinitely.

I think you lived in those moldy apartments for too long.....you make less and less sense with each passing day.

Also, Betty White is a vegan.

Did Golden Chick closing have anything to do with the flooding? I know the Cox building is still closed for repairs.

LOL. Maybe you're kidding. If not, I assume the joke was in referencing Golden Chick to "Golden Girls" which was a Betty White sitcom.

I have been told by a reliable source that the Golden Chick on 23rd has re-opened.

There's a Golden Chick near us on N. Rockwell & N.W. 16th. Is
this a good place for chicken?

For those who love Golden Chick, They are building a new golden chick on the southside about a block north of SW 59th and Penn.

Never heard of 'em. But, hey, I'm game. Might give 'em a try, tho I don't get that far north so much these days....isn't exactly a stellar area, if I'm thinking of the right spot...

Drive by it everyday its moving really slow
