"The restaurant chain has grown steadily over the past nearly 50 years, with the Bojangles menu focused not just on fried chicken but also on its signature biscuits and sweet tea - two other Southern favorites. Chicken is certainly the main menu item, however, and the chain is known for having the absolute best chicken tenders. But there is also a Bojangles fish sandwich, and the biscuits may have an equal claim to fame as the tenders."
"The biscuits at Bojangles are made from scratch throughout the day by a dedicated baker who produces, on average, over 1,000 biscuits in an 8-hour shift. And when they say "made from scratch," they really mean it. The biscuit recipe involves a painstaking 49 steps, a process that these skilled biscuit makers accomplish in just four minutes. You can also be sure that the biscuits will be fresh, as a new batch comes out at least every 20 minutes."
Founded in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1977, Bojangles built a Southern-inspired menu centered on fried chicken, signature biscuits, and sweet tea. The chain is known for its chicken tenders and also offers a fish sandwich, with biscuits rivaling tenders in popularity. Biscuits are made from scratch throughout the day by a dedicated baker who produces over 1,000 biscuits in an eight-hour shift; the recipe has 49 steps completed in roughly four minutes and new batches appear at least every 20 minutes. Bojangles has expanded rapidly beyond the Southeast, adding over 30 restaurants in 2025 across markets such as Ohio, Nevada, and New Jersey as part of a 270-location growth plan.
