Layne’s Chicken Fingers is opening a Marble Falls location at 2711 U.S. 281 North, across from Walmart. The old Jack-in-the-Box building was recently the site of a prank involving another chicken joint, but the Layne’s announcement is no joke.
Austin-area Layne’s franchisee Shahroz Khan said the restaurant should open around mid-May or early June, if everything goes according to plan.
Layne’s, founded in 1994 in College Station near Texas A&M University with the slogan “Soon to be famous chicken fingers,” is pecking out a string of locations across Texas, with Marble Falls being the latest.
“I fell in love with Marble Falls when I first drove through it,” Khan told DailyTrib.com on Wednesday, March 12. “The great views and the culture and the feel and the people sealed the deal.”
Khan scouted out the city in December 2024 and thought the U.S. 281 location would be a prime spot for Layne’s due to the thru-traffic. He and his business partners signed a lease in February and recently joined the Marble Falls/Highland Lakes Chamber of Commerce.
Khan said he was not familiar with a prank last summer at the 281 site by two local teens, who teased a “coming soon” sign for Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers.
Cane’s and Layne’s have similar offerings of fried chicken tenders with a special sauce, but Layne’s is slightly older. Cane’s debuted in 1996 in another college town: Baton Rouge, home of Louisiana State University.
