Spicy hot chicken news coming in for a landing: Hattie B's Hot Chicken, nationally renowned for its hot chicken, is opening a location in Dallas' Oak Lawn neighborhood.

According to a release, the restaurant is swooping in to take over a location with hot chicken history: It'll open at 3827 Lemmon Ave., previously home to Lucky's Hot Chicken, a short-lived local chain founded in 2020 by Hunter Pond and Kyle Brooks (East Hampton Sandwich Co., Drake’s, Hudson House) which seems to have gone defunct.

They'll open in fall 2024.

Headquartered in Nashville, Hattie B's was founded in 2012 by father-and-son team Nick Bishop, Sr. and Nick Bishop, Jr., and is a pioneer in the hot chicken world. They do bone-in, tenders, and chicken sandwiches, served with varying levels of heat and at an affordable price: A Hot Chicken Sandwich with one side is $11.50, while a Tenders Plate with 3 tenders, 2 sides, bread, and pickles is $12.

The menu also features Southern sides including pimento mac & cheese and collard greens, plus craft beer, and banana pudding and peach cobbler for dessert.

This will be the second Hattie's B in Dallas, which opened its first location not only in Dallas but also Texas in Deep Ellum at 3000 Main St., in February 2022. They're also now in Austin, having just opened their first location in February 2024.

"Dallas has been great to us since opening here two years ago, and now we're excited to bring Hattie B's to Oak Lawn later this year," Nick Bishop, Jr., co-founder of Hattie B's Hot Chicken, says in a statement. "We're focused on growing in Texas, and this is the next step as we plant our roots further in the state."

Prior to Lucky's, the Oak Lawn location was an Einstein's Bros. Bagel shop but it was originally built as an IHOP restaurant, which you can spot by the iconic A-frame pitched roof.

Hattie B's will keep the interior footprint, approximately 3,662 square feet, and general floor plan while making significant changes to the overall design. For example, they'll open the ceiling to expose the rafters, and a separate entrance will be created for to-go and delivery pick-ups.

The renovated space will feature 75 seats in the dining room, with outdoor seating for 54 guests. Parking will be offered on-site with 33 spaces.

"We loved the building from the jump and decent parking on-site is a huge plus," Bishop says.

The menu will be the same as other Hattie B's locations including tenders, sandwich, scratch-made Southern sides, desserts, cocktails, and ice-cold beer.
