Chicken tender chain Huey Magoo’s signed a development agreement to open 12 restaurants, marking the brand’s entry into Texas and expanding its presence in Alabama. The deal includes eight restaurants across the North Dallas market and four in Birmingham, Ala.
The new development agreement builds on a landmark year of growth for Huey Magoo’s. In 2025, the brand introduced a condensed 1,500-square-foot prototype that the chain says reduces buildout costs and speeds development, opening the door to smaller real estate options. Huey Magoo’s also launched its Magoo’s Rewards loyalty program. The brand continued evolving its menu with the debut of Grilled Tender Bites and an expanded specialty handcrafted lemonade program.
Huey Magoo’s is on track to reach 100 locations in 2026.
