2 Raising Cane's Eateries Opening Soon In Burlington Co.; The Chain's 1st In NJ

BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ — Raising Cane's is almost here. As the fried chicken chain continues its aggressive push into the South Jersey market, two of the region's locations will open soon.

Raising Cane's expects its first New Jersey restaurant to open Jan. 11 in Burlington Township, followed by Marlton around the end of January, according to a company spokesperson.

Founded in Louisiana, Raising Cane's has opened hundreds of locations across the country and a few dozen restaurants in the Middle East. But the fast-food chain didn't forget about the Garden State, with seven South Jersey eateries currently in the works.

Here's when the first few are expected to open:

• Burlington: Jan. 11 (Mount Holly Road and Bromley Boulevard)
• Marlton: end of January (800 Route 70 W)
• Cherry Hill: February (2014 Route 70 W)
• Deptford: March (1860 Deptford Center Rd.)

Raising Cane's currently plans to develop three additional South Jersey locations. The chain expects to begin construction mid-2024 in Glassboro and next fall in Lawnside, according to the spokesperson. The timeline for Raising Cane's in Turnersville is not yet clear.

The chain's specialties include chicken fingers (with signature Cane's sauce), chicken sandwiches, crinkle-cut fries, Texas toast and sweet tea.
