Michigan’s only Bojangles location expected to open soon near Grand Rapids
WYOMING, MI – Bojangles, a North Carolina chain known for its fried chicken, biscuits and tea, is expected to open a new location in Wyoming, Mich.
The company currently operates more than 800 locations spread across 17 states, according to its website. But the one coming to Wyoming marks Michigan’s first.
Bojangles is officially set to open at 1730 28th St. SW., near Grand Rapids. The 2,223-square-foot building sits on a 1.37-acre lot.
The space has been home to its fair share of businesses over the years, including Main Street Pub and a Chinese restaurant called Hong Kong Inn.
Most recently, it was formerly a Taco John’s, which closed all its West Michigan locations in September 2024. The property was sold in July of this year to the a limited liability company called “SP BOJ QSR Investor I,” registered to an address in Lansing.
While an official opening date has not been set, the website indicates the Grand Rapids-area location is “coming soon,” with 18 new locations for the fast food chain expected to open before the end of 2025.
Featured menu items include the beloved Bo’s chicken sandwich. It comes with a juicy fried chicken breast, marinated in spices and hand-breaded with a crispy, crunchy buttermilk coating, and topped with two thick-cut dill pickles and creamy mayo on a toasted bakery bun.
Another favorite is the chicken meal. It comes with eight pieces of seasoned fried chicken, four made-from-scratch biscuits, two sides, and a half gallon of tea.
The choice of sides or “fixins” includes seasoned fries, Bo-Tato rounds, Bojangles dirty rice and macaroni & cheese.
Menu prices range from $4 to over $50, depending on whether it’s a family meal.
The 18 new locations including the Wyoming spot are expected to open by the end of the year in eight different states, according to USA Today.
The upcoming expansion is part of a larger effort to increase the company’s footprint. The company aims to have more than 1,000 new locations in the next few years.
