Northeast Philly can get a taste Raising Cane's popular chicken fingers at a new location in the Rhawnhurst neighborhood.
The restaurant opened Tuesday at 2329 Cottman Ave. near Roosevelt Mall — the fourth location in Philadelphia and the 12th in Pennsylvania from the chain that's based in Baton Rogue, Louisiana.

Expect the restaurant's usual menu of chicken fingers, Cane's toast, fries and coleslaw, along with its usual assortment of dipping sauces. The menu attracted crowds in 2022 at Philly's first Raising Cane's location in University City, followed by openings in North Philly near Temple University and Southwest Philly.
To commemorate the new spot in Rhawnhurst, Raising Cane's is hosting activities for the community on opening day. A "lucky 20" customers has a chance to win free Cane's for a year in an in-person drawing from 8-9 a.m.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Chamber of Commerce of Greater Philadelphia will take place at 9 a.m., along with a check presentation to the Frankford Chargers Sports and Mentoring Association.
Additionally, the first 100 customers to buy a Box Combo (which includes four chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, Cane's Sauce, Texas toast, coleslaw and a drink) will receive a commemorative hat and a free Box Combo card.
"Opening our first Restaurant in Northeast Philadelphia is a dream come true," Warren Sewell, the chain's regional leader of restaurants, said in a statement. "We’re eager to serve the hardworking members of the Community our craveable Chicken Finger meals and provide these Philadelphians a convenient, delicious dining option."
Those who need their chicken fix can do so late night, with the joint's operating hours being 10 a.m.-midnight Sunday through Thursday, and 10 a.m.-1 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.
