The restaurant brings its beloved chicken to Levy County on Monday, March 18
Saucy chicken chain Zaxby’s is opening its first location in Chiefland, Florida at 1515 NW 25th Ave. The new restaurant is owned and operated by PBC Chicken LLC and will be open for both dine-in and drive-thru on Monday, March 18.
“We are extremely excited to open the first Zaxby’s in Chiefland,” said Patrick Atwater III, manager of the new restaurant. “The people we have worked with locally have been incredible and we are looking forward to getting to know each and every person in the community, especially local first responders and other members of community organizations.”
The new 2,996 square foot restaurant can accommodate up to 56 guests inside its dining room and features Zaxby’s classic white farmhouse exterior design. The location is equipped with a dual drive-thru to provide speedy to-go service, serving fresh, hot food every time. For even faster service, customers may also order ahead online via Zaxbys.com as well as through the Zaxby’s app available for download on Google Play and the App Store.
Zaxby’s serves fresh, prepared-at-order Chicken Fingerz and wings tossed in a variety of bold and spicy sauces. The menu also features Zaxby’s famous Signature Sandwich, its wildly popular Chicken Bacon Ranch Loaded Fries and the brand’s fan-favorite Fried Pickles.
Brand fans can also enjoy five Chicken Fingerz with Zax Sauce for free with a purchase of $5 or more when downloading the app and signing up for the Zax Rewardz loyalty program for the first time. Zaxby’s Zax Rewards program was recently recognized as one of America’s Best Loyalty programs in the Fast-Food Restaurant Chains Category on Newsweek’s and Statista’s list of America’s Best Loyalty Programs 2024 and turns online orders or in-store purchases into flavor-packed rewards.
The new Zaxby’s is owned by franchisees Atwater III, Pat Atwater Sr., Linda Atwater, Brian Atwater, Frances Atwater, Chad Copeland, Chad Carpenter and Shane Hudson. The group contracted Trenton-based Toney Sullivan with Fletcher construction to build the restaurant.
“We’re still hiring for open positions on the team. We invite interested applicants to visit Zaxbys.com to apply for all available positions,” Atwater III added.
Founded in 1990, Zaxby’s is committed to serving delicious Chicken Fingerz, Zalads, wings, and signature sauces with southern hospitality and a modern twist. Zaxby’s iconic Fried Pickles were recognized in USA Today’s 2023 10Best Fast Food Sides List. Zaxby’s has grown to more than 940 locations in 17 states and is headquartered in Athens, Georgia.
