A Texas chain that specializes in, you guessed it, Nashville hot chicken will debut its first Florida location in Tampa later this month.

Clutch City Cluckers, named after the Houston Rockets' 1994 and 1995 NBA Championship runs, will open its permanent food truck spot on Sept. 27 at 2315 E Fletcher Ave., which is across the street from Bagels Plus.

To celebrate the grand-opening, the 100% percent halal concept will be giving away any one tender sandwich (one per customer) from 5 p.m.-8 p.m., and then 50% off the entire menu from 8 p.m.-3 a.m. There will also be a raffle to win a iPhone 15 and Clutch City gift cards.

The chain will also sport a 50% off menu all weekend long.

Known for Nashville-inspired hot chicken, Cluck City's menu also spans cheese topped hot chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, wings, shrimp tacos, salads, loaded fries, shakes, root beer floats, and more.

Clutch City Cluckers was launched in Houston in 2021 by Ahmad Kilani, a native of Irbid, Jordan. The food truck chain has since expanded to 11 locations across Texas, Louisiana, and even one brick and mortar in Amman, Jordan.

The new Tampa location will be open from 11 a.m.-5 a.m. daily.
