Restaurant set to re-open after holiday car accident

The staff at an Evans restaurant got an unwanted Christmas gift on Christmas Eve.

A driver careened into the side of the eatery, destroying the drive-thru window and causing significant damage to the adjacent kitchen.

This week, remodelers hope to complete work on the Chicken Fingers Restaurant at the corner of Blue Ridge Drive and Evans to Locks Road.

In the meantime, the restaurant is parking its food truck in front of their end cap unit. The Shoppes at Blue Ridge Center owners and property managers at Jordan Trotter Commercial Real Estate were supportive in light of the circumstances.  Staff members have been selling their famous Chicken fingers, fries, Texas toast and drink meals. Customers place their orders, go inside for their drink, and wait a few minutes to pick up their to-go orders.

Adam Lee from the Chicken Fingers restaurant tells ABD, while remodeling gets completed in preparation for re-opening—he wanted to ensure that his employees didn’t have to worry about their jobs.
