Long Lines Greet Idaho’s First Ever Raising Cane’s Grand Opening

The 'boom' in Idaho continues as yet another popular chain restaurant with a cult-like following has announced a grand opening date here in the Treasure Valley.

Brace yourselves, Treasure Valley...chicken mania has arrived.

Just take a look at the lines that formed outside, before they were even open, in the fog! 

Are you ready for Raising Cane's to open up its first ever Idaho location!?

It's finally here--and open for business! 

Announced MONTHS ago, Raising Cane's, the fast-food chicken joint was up next in the expansion of chain restaurants invading Idaho for the first time. It seems that In-N-Out really broke the seal on major chains coming to town but these days, there seems to be a chicken joint on almost every corner--with a drive-thru attached.

Lovers of chicken, Raising Cane's, or those that are simply excited to see what all the hype is about can officially visit Raising Cane's in Meridian--and it won't be long before there are multiple locations! 

Have the stolen a play out of the In-N-Out's playbook?

The restaurant is located in Meridian, at 2712 N Eagle Road -- right near Trader Joe's, the Village, and 'the chaos' of drive-time traffic.

The chain restaurant also continues to hire and staff the new location. Some of their benefits, as shared in a press release, include;

• Being closed for all major holidays and early closing hours for other nationally-recognized events like the Super Bowl
• Medical & Pharmacy, Life Insurance, Legal Insurance, Pet Insurance, Auto and Renter’s Insurance
• 401(k) With Employer Safe-Harbor Match (age 21 & older), Hospital Indemnity and Short-term Disability
• Education Discounts & No-Cost Highschool Diplomas
• Flexible scheduling
• Weekly Pay

It's day-1 and the place is already insanely popular! Looking for a side-hustle? A good lunch? This checks all of the boxes.

The Louisiana based restaurant has made Idaho their 43rd state. Yes--the best has been saved for almost last!
