This past summer, we let you know that Pelicana chicken signed on to take over the space that was the longtime home of Woodside Deli in Rockville at 4 N Washington Street, according to Federal Realty. Woodside Deli closed in the summer of 2022 after 12 years at Rockville’s Courthouse Center.
This will be the first Maryland location for Pelicana Chicken, which has nearby locations in Annandale and Sterling, VA. Pelicana Chicken has stated that it’s currently hiring and anticipates an early January 2025 opening.
Per the restaurant: Pelicana Chicken was established in 1982 in Daejeon, South Korea. Since its inception, Pelicana has expanded to over 3000 stores and continues to grow aggressively abroad. Pelicana Chicken’s success is attributed to its variety of delicious sauces, chicken selections, and fresh ingredients.
