Originally Frisco's Chicken had the following sign posted on its doors:

"Frisco's Fans, it is with a heavy heart that we share that we are closing our doors indefinitely. Although we have elected to close, a group of our team has refused to stop working and will be selling through our inventory until it is gone at our Lancaster and Mount Joy locations. These sales will be cash only and all proceeds will go to our staff. We cannot thank you all for the love and support along our journey."

Frisco's Chicken's four locations were in Lancaster City, Mount Joy, Lititz, and Willow Valley, according to the company website.

Since that time the company has received so much support from the community they've reversed their decision and are making plans to reopen the Lancaster City location, writing on Facebook:

"It’s your voices that have fueled our passion and commitment. We’ve heard you loud and clear, and that’s why we’re pouring our hearts into bringing back the original Frisco’s Chicken in Lancaster City."

They also announced a line of Frisco’s Chicken Forever merchandise as a "way of expressing gratitude and staying connected with each of you." 

The first location opened in 2020. Click here to read the story behind Frisco's Chicken.
