Slim Chickens, a popular fast food outlet in Cardiff's St David's Shopping Centre, has been shut for several days, with no official reason given for the closure. The US chain, known for its chicken tenders, has its shutters down and tables and chairs stacked behind them. Screens inside and outside the restaurant remain on, still advertising the menu, but no signs or notices explain the closure or indicate when or if it will reopen.
Attempts to Contact Franchise Owner
WalesOnline has attempted to contact the chain's UK franchise owner, Boparan Restaurant Group (BRG), for comment but has not yet received a response. The restaurant first opened its doors in the Welsh capital in 2018 and has since expanded to locations in Bridgend and Swansea.
Customer Uncertainty
The sudden closure has left customers puzzled, with many taking to social media to express confusion and concern. The restaurant's status remains unclear, and no reopening date has been announced.
