In the coming years, there will be seven locations across Denver. Starbird said it expects to open the first location by mid-2025, with the rest of the locations set to roll out within the next few years. Starbird didn’t mention specific locations for stores in the Denver area.

The fast-food spots offer crispy chicken sandwiches, salads, tenders, wings, nuggets and more.

“Expanding beyond California for the first time is a landmark moment for Starbird and a testament to the demand for a new kind of fast food,” said Aaron Noveshen, founder and CEO of Starbird, in a press release. “Denver’s vibrant and discerning community is the perfect place to introduce our unique brand of chef-crafted crispy chicken.”
