!Go Chicken Go! New KC North Location!



In a move that has foodies across Kansas City clucking with excitement, cult favorite restaurant Go Chicken Go has announced that it will be opening a new 6th location in the Northland, next to the new Whataburger off Barry Rd and I-169 with a tentative opening planned for in January 2024. There are also plans for a location at Vivion Rd and North Oak Trafficway.

This latest addition to the Go Chicken Go family is sure to be a hit with locals and visitors alike, given the restaurant's sterling reputation for serving up some of the best chicken in the city. Indeed, the Kansas City Star named Go Chicken Go as the city's top chicken purveyor in 2018, a distinction that has helped to cement its place as a beloved local institution.

The business is owned and operated by two brothers, Bill and Mike Hendrix, along with Mike's daughter Andrea Lowe, and has been a fixture in the community for over forty years. In addition to the new location, the Hendrix family also runs two other restaurants in Kansas City, KS and on Troost in South KC.

For those unfamiliar with the Go Chicken Go experience, the restaurant is known for its crispy, golden-brown fried chicken, which is made using a secret family recipe that has been passed down through the generations. Other popular menu items include chicken gizzards, livers, and wings, as well as a range of classic sides like mashed potatoes and gravy, coleslaw, and green beans.

With its new location set to open its doors in just a few short months, fans of Go Chicken Go are eagerly anticipating the chance to sink their teeth into some of the best chicken around. Whether you're a lifelong devotee or a newcomer to the restaurant's mouth-watering offerings, there's no doubt that the arrival of this new location is cause for celebration.

Right??? I'm not holding my breath. When I see the building is built, the "Go Chicken Go" sign is up, and the "Open" sign in the window, that's when I'll get excited. It's been nearly 6 years that I've been waiting for the one at Vivion and N Oak to open. It still hasn't happened. So, pardon me for not getting excited for this one, yet. Haha!!

I have seen the Whataburger going in and there is a Hawaiian Brothers in that location as well. Will see if they put a Go Chicken Go in there. It would be nice if they did.

It is going there, they have owned the property since bueno closed. Just slow and steady and building a strong team for what will most likely be one of their busiest locations.

There is an open pad site between Hawaiian Bros. and Whataburger in front of Macy's @ 169 and Barry Rd.. I sure hope the plan goes through. Love the livers/gizzard box.

I'd really like to see a link to your source for this information. According to the permits that have been posted to FB about the development in the Metro North area, there's nothing showing GCG has any intention of building between Whataburger and Hawaiian Bros. I want it to be true, but I'm very skeptical of this "news". I mean, it's been about 6 years since it was "announced" that there was one being built at Vivion and N Oak. It still hasn't been built.

You must not live around here or have access to google maps or even an impossible to refold paper map. 169 hwy goes from downtown ( broadway bridge) past briarcliff ,vivion rd, englewood, barry,152 hwy, 435 , thru smithville,gower and farther north than that.

Mo 169 is not an Interstate highway. I 29 and I 35 are. I 70 I 435 I 635 I 49 are Interstates. That's what the I indicates.

There is a state hyway 169. It goes right by the old Metro North where the article said the GO Chicken Go is going in.
