Hangry Joe’s Hot Chicken to spice up Annandale with new restaurant

Over in Annandale, taste buds are tingling as Hangry Joe’s Hot Chicken gears up for a new restaurant opening.

The rapidly expanding fried chicken chain recently announced via Instagram that it will be opening its next Northern Virginia location at 7042 Little River Turnpike. The future storefront will occupy a former Wendy’s now rebranded to EastGate Square, according to property manager Willard Retail.

Further details, like a specific opening date, have yet to be released. FFXnow has reached out to the Richmond-based franchise for more information but didn’t hear back by publication.

Hangry Joe’s also has a location coming to Tysons.

Located at the intersection of Little River Turnpike and John Marr Drive, Eastgate Square is also set to house Moby Dick House of Kabob, according to Annandale Today. The Annandale-based news site reported that the fast-casual Persian restaurant estimated it will open this past June, but it remains under development.

Clearly, Annandale residents will have no shortage of new dining options in the upcoming year, as Hangry Joe’s joins the ever-growing list of shops slated for future openings in the EastGate complex.

Boba chain Tiger Sugar, L&L Hawaiian Barbecue and a beer garden have all recently shared plans to open at 4363 John Marr Drive as part of Eastgate’s strip mall just ahead of the square.
