A new chicken tender joint is coming to Flowood. See what it is and when it will open

A new Huey Magoo's Chicken Tenders restaurant is under construction in Flowood on Hugh Ward Boulevard off of Lakeland Drive near the Walgreens.

The restaurant is expected to open sometime this spring, according to Andy Howard, corporate PR consultant for Huey Magoo's.

The Flowood location will be the fourth Huey Magoo's Chicken Tenders location in the state of Mississippi.

According to a Clarion Ledger report last year, Huey Magoo's has 23 locations in four states with a plan to open more in nine-states in the coming months.

Other Huey Magoo's Chicken Tenders restaurants open in Mississippi, include locations in McComb, Pearl and Brookhaven.

Huey Magoo's offers grilled, hand-breaded or "sauced" chicken tenders, salads, sandwiches and wraps along with French fries as a side.
