Local gourmet fried chicken restaurant quietly closed a location
An East-side fried chicken spot known for drumsticks, wings, and Southern-style sides like mashed potatoes and collard greens, quietly closed one of their locations.
The Crispy Coop opened a Pickerington location in March of 2021 at 1510 Cross Creeks Blvd., and 3 years later, the franchisees permanently closed the doors, according to The Crispy Coop.
Not all is lost though – another location, managed by the same crew at the original Grandview location, is opening in Reynoldsburg on April 18th, located at 6330 Tussing Rd.
The franchisee owners could not be reached for comment by the time this article was published.
