WELCOME TO SLIMS NATION!

Want to work with us?

We know that the experience our Guests receive will only be as good as the people who deliver it, and this is where you can get in on the action!

Where it all started …..

Our roots run deep in the Southern U.S where food is honest, meals are social, and the door is always open.

We started with a mission to bring a dose of that southern hospitality to a fast, casual setting - serving fresh handmade food to local communities. Our startup story is pretty simple. It all started with a craving for a quick quality meal - fresh chicken cooked to order. When we discovered there was a niche to fill, we rallied where lots of great startups begin, from our garage! Tireless testing and a laser focused vision launched the first Slim Chickens restaurant in Fayetteville, Arkansas, 2003. Now over a decade and thousands of happy customers later, we know that there's something special about our hand-breaded chicken tenders, fresh Buffalo wings, and handmade dipping sauces that keeps our loyal fans coming back...over and over again. Customers tell us that Slims has changed their weekly routines -- that our food was simply life changing, and that they can't get enough. No joke. We strive to return that enthusiasm by giving back to the
communities we serve - helping local non-profits with fundraisers, donating food to communities we serve - helping local non-profits with fundraisers, donating food to community events, and doing everything we can to improve the lives of people in the communities where we live and work. In more ways than one, Slim Chickens is truly Life Changing Chicken.

Slim Chickens is part of the Boparan Restaurant Group where our people are the heart and soul of our business.
