Stadium tested. Retail ready. Built for operators who know how to move.
We do chicken and fries.
We don’t mess around.
Food is how we say “I like you” to people, and fried chicken brings people together like nothing else. That is what started us chasing the perfect fried chicken in the first place, and the result is what is on our menu.
We keep it focused. The favorites everyone knows, done better than you expect. Crispy on the outside, tender where it counts, seasoned like it matters. We are not trying to reinvent fried chicken. We are just doing it right.
With a name like Official, we show up every day ready to prove it. From the first bite, guests should know exactly what we mean.
Focused Menu:
Chicken, fries, sauces, and sides that are easy to understand and built for repeat visits.
Made to Move:
Designed for speed, takeout, delivery, and high volume service.
Built with personality:
A brand voice that is confident, funny, direct, and easy to remember.
COMMUNITY CONNECTEDNESS. THOUGHTFUL INNOVATION. UNWAVERING TRANSPARENCY
Ready to make it official in your neighborhood?
Official Fried Chicken (OFC) started by doing something simple and doing it where expectations are high. Fast service. Hungry crowds. Game day pressure. Real repeat demand.
After building strong brand recognition in major venues, OFC is preparing for retail expansion with a franchise model designed around focused operations, craveable food, and a clear brand personality.
The first franchise owned retail location is planned for Bloomington, Minnesota, at 98th and Lyndale. This location will serve as a flagship retail store and a working model for future growth.
We are looking for experienced operators who understand that simple concepts can be
powerful when the food is good, the system is focused, and the brand knows exactly what it is.

OFC is preparing to grow with franchise partners who are serious about restaurant operations and ready to build a food brand with real personality. This is not a concept trying to be everything to everyone. OFC is focused on chicken, fries, sauces, speed, and consistency. That focus is the point. It keeps the guest experience clear and gives operators a model built around repeatable execution.
We are especially interested in experienced franchisees, restaurant operators, and development partners who can help bring OFC into strong retail locations and high traffic markets.
