  • Abandoned Bojangles - Fayetteville, WV. This is one of our videos from the summer of 2020 that never got uploaded. A rarity, Bojangles doesn't often close restaurants so I was a bit surprised to come across this.

The franchisee "let go"of all of the above mentioned restauramts and all closed abruptly.

    Bojangles made a huge effort to open brand new restaurants a few years ago here in West Virginia. They spent a pretty being chunk of change to build and furnish all these facilities. Then a year later they closed them all. A few have been repurposed into Cook Out brand burger restaurants. To be honest, the Bojangles weren't very good, at least where I live. Overpriced. Sub-par food. The 30 year old KFC was better than many of these places, as far as chicken goes. Why and how Bojangles took such a huge loss on these restaurants is beyond me.

    Sadly all the Bojangles seem to have closed in WV except for Princeton the last I checked. Sad to see all these restaurants close after such a short time. Sadly they just didn't do that great of business. I know quite a few of them have been converted into different places. Ones in Huntington and Beckley were converted into Sonic. Also I think one in Charleston was converted to Cookout and another in Huntington was converted into a car wash strangely. Either way, the expansion apparently flopped. Although I have not seen the Sonic in Beckley not doing great business either. Not sure if people just don't care about Sonic or if the location is just cursed or something. It is further than the other fast food places from the interstate. The Bojangles in Fayetteville though was hard to miss going along 19.

    So Bojangles went public several years ago.to please the stock holders they started throwing up stores left and right.it didnt matter if it made since to open in that certain area or not, just open one. Low sales made them rethink so they closed low performing stores.the company was sold a couple of years ago and they went back to being private.now they are more stable and are growing again the right way.
