‘So good'? Or ‘worst service' at Boise's food hall? Either way, this vendor closed
At its core level, the restaurant business is relentlessly challenging. But hurdles can loom even higher for a small brand trying to expand to a distant land — like Boise. That appears to have been the case for Just Chicken , which shuttered recently at The Warehouse Food Hall , 370 S. 8th St. The concept, which specialized in chicken tenders and sandwiches, debuted there just over a year ago. Warehouse Food Hall owner Geronimo Hospitality Group confirmed the closure in a prepared statement. Just Chicken continues to operate at the Geronimo-owned Garage Food Hall in Indianapolis. “Just Chicken has been a valued partner,” the company wrote, “and we’re fortunate to continue that relationship in other markets. We appreciate the opportunity to have worked with their team at The Warehouse and wish them continued success. We’re now working with a local food truck operator on plans to bring a new concept into the space and look forward to sharing more details as those plans come together.” The prospect of a new concept at The Warehouse is exciting for food enthusiasts. Even if the transition is disappointing for Just Chicken. Founded in 2022, Just Chicken is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Launching
