Raising Cane’s opens its newest Restaurant in Fayetteville on Thursday, Nov. 5, at 1812 Skibo Road. This Restaurant also marks the Brand’s first Restaurant in “America’s Can-Do City” bringing its ONE LOVE® – Craveable Chicken Finger Meals® – to even more of the greater Raleigh area.

Restaurant doors open to the Community at 10 a.m., but Customers are encouraged to arrive before 9 a.m. for giveaways, Community celebrations and opening day festivities, including:

The award-winning Restaurant Brand is known for its premium chicken, marinated for at least 24 hours and cooked fresh for each order, with no heat lamps and no warmers. Just quality chicken made right every time. Crewmembers prepare every meal with care, from hand-battering Chicken Fingers and making Cane’s Sauce fresh daily, to grilling buttery Cane’s Toast, mixing coleslaw and brewing fresh tea and lemonade. From the Kids Combo to the Caniac Combo, every order delivers the iconic Raising Cane’s flavor.

We’re excited to share our Craveable Chicken Finger Meals, signature Cane’s Sauce and legendary hospitality while connecting with local families, supporting organizations making an impact and creating meaningful relationships that will last for years to come.”

The new Raising Cane’s is open Sunday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. and Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.
