Historic fried chicken brand announces first ever Kent location
Miss Millie's to open first Kent store with brand new Canterbury restaurant
Renowned Fried chicken shop, Miss Millie’s, has unveiled plans for their first ever Kent store, which is due to open in Canterbury city centre in the autumn.
The Miss Millie’s story began in 1965, and the brand has since grown to become the South West’s best-loved fried chicken shop, but has increased its UK presence with recent new openings in Edinburgh, Newquay and Southampton. Canterbury will be the group’s 13th store in the UK, and is due to open on the High Street in the city in the autumn this year.
With a long-standing history, Miss Millie’s has built up a loyal customer base in the South West over the last three decades renowned for their Wings of Fire, Tenders, burgers, wraps and shakes.
However, with ambitious growth plans to further their UK expansion, they’ve recently launched a new brand identity along with a ‘new and improved’ menu, and Canterbury will be the first store in the country to open with the brand-new look and a menu offering, with ‘flavour first’ at the heart of everything they do.
As well as a new chicken breading recipe, including 12 secret herbs and spices, The Millie’s menu now also features an exciting range of flavour-packed sauces, and a delicious range of regularly changing seasonal specials.
Speaking about the upcoming Canterbury opening, CEO Andy Purnell said: “We’re really excited to be bringing the Miss Millie’s experience to the amazing city of Canterbury - especially as it’s our first opening on the East coast of the UK. As a big university city, we’re looking forward to making some new fans with the students in the town, as well as residents and visitors. With a new look and store design along with some fantastic new flavours – we cant wait to be open!
Miss Millie’s is currently recruiting for staff members at the new Canterbury store - career opportunities can be found at www.missmillies.co.uk/careers.
The store will be opening in the autumn at 35 The High Street Canterbury CT1 2RY - an exact launch date will be announced very soon.
