It was on Midway Rd. just across Columbia from the Wal-Mart. The building is now being used for a kindergarten, I think.fbenarionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-65878645925682040372015-06-29T20:40:40.005-04:002015-06-29T20:40:40.005-04:00I hope Bojangles is a reader of your Blog, which b...I hope Bojangles is a reader of your Blog, which by he way I think is Great!!<br /><br />Today I was at their new store in Braselton and would have to agree with the others that the quality was not up to par. It tasted like everything was cooked to far in advance.

(Even when Players was there, it always seemed vacant!) I'm not likely to visit Bojangles, but I'm glad to see something that's neither a vape store nor a title loan place open up there.G.G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14139897093825738777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-34779832645885753222015-06-29T10:36:26.810-04:002015-06-29T10:36:26.810-04:00I used to work by the location they opened up on P...I used to work by the location they opened up on Panola Road, and the quality started to slip several months after they opened. At lunch time, the place used to be packed and the drive through line wrapped around the building. After the first of the year, those crowds disappeared and the quality of the food had become hit or miss. So it became no different than any of the other fast food places in the area, spotty service and spotty food quality. <br /><br />While giving a serious go at it in the Atlanta market makes sense (Their intial push seemed to happen around the time Mrs. Winners went out.), how many of these locations will be closed within 2-3 years, in particular, the franchised locations? They've been pretty savvy about where they're putting locations, as most of them seem to be on the side of the road that gets the bulk of the morning traffic. The ones that aren't on that side of the road aren't too difficult to access. But location doesn't mean a thing if the quality of the food and the quality of service start to decline. <br /><br />vespajethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09058640011590681625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-83017457002995733202015-06-29T09:00:43.877-04:002015-06-29T09:00:43.877-04:00I wonder if Bojangles is expanding too fast.

On the second visit we were a little disappointed in the quality of service/food.<br /><br />Also, I realize this is kind of off the wall, but does anyone remember an old ice skating rink that was located near the old Avondale Mall? <br />Hamnoreply@blogger.com
