Slim Chickens

The Cullman Planning Commission approved the site plan Monday night for a Slim Chickens fast food restaurant to be built on Cherokee Avenue SW. 

The restaurant will be located at 1722 Cherokee Avenue SW between Badcock Home Furniture and Lowe’s Home Improvement. 

The fast casual restaurant chain specializes in chicken tenders, wings, sandwiches, salads, wraps, chicken & waffles, and other items, and the Cullman location would be the first Slim Chickens in Alabama.

The commission also approved a conditional use permit for the Foundation of Jesus church to be built at 1451 11th Street SE after several people attended the meeting both in favor and in opposition of the location.
