Shaquille’Neal’s Big Chicken eatery is coming to Philadelphia

The fast-casual eatery specializing in big sandwiches has a food hall location on the way in April at the Comcast Center's concourse.

Big Chicken, the fast-casual eatery backed by NBA retiree Shaquille O’Neal, will open its first Pennsylvania location, likely in April, in the Concourse at Comcast Center, the food hall beneath Comcast’s HQ at 1701 JFK Blvd. It will operate 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays

OVG Hospitality, part of sports and entertainment company Oak View Group, will oversee operations at this new location. Brûlée Catering, OVG’s local catering arm, will manage day-to-day operations, just as it had started with Top Chef Quickfire.
