“This opening is especially meaningful for us,” says Alex Larson. “We’ve worked tirelessly for five years, and it’s a true homecoming to finally return to our roots in Walton County and bring the ‘Filet Mignon of Chicken’ back to DAD’s Tenders home market of Monroe. Our incredible management team and employees have brought our family culture and values to life, and we couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve achieved together.”

In addition to the new store opening, Huey Magoo’s and DAD’s Tenders is excited to announce their official partnership with the University of Georgia Athletics. This season, fans can savor Huey Magoo’s signature tenders right inside Sanford Stadium. Larson adds, “There’s nothing better than football and chicken tenders. We’re confident that UGA fans will agree this is a match made in heaven.”
