The West Valley is slowly pulling in more restaurants. For years, it has been a desert in more than just name, as the region has lacked stores, restaurants, and other major elements the East Valley has enjoyed since its inception. Despite the west side of greater Phoenix being one of the fastest-growing areas in the United States, businesses have been slow to follow. However, one national spicy chicken brand, which is growing almost as fast as the metro Phoenix, has decided to make the move and open a new location, pushing further west into the area.
While not as west as residents might like. Those living to the west of I-17 and South of I-10 are almost always left out of restaurant expansion (outside of maybe some spots popping up in Glendale). To help rectify this, Dave’s Hot Chicken has announced it is opening a location at 7616 South 56th Avenue in Laveen. An exact opening date has not yet been determined, as finishing touches are being placed onto the location, but in the next several months, residents of Laveen, will have an easier time stopping by and grabbing a spicy chicken sandwich.
