Jollibee
Jollibee, home of "Chickenjoy," is opening a restaurant with a drive-thru at 4809 Beauregard St. in Alexandria. The restaurant opens around the middle of June. Grand opening info will be available closer to the opening date.
The Lincolnia-neighborhood restaurant, at 4809 Beauregard St. is just over the Alexandria City line in Fairfax County. It is the first Jollibee in Northern Virginia.
"Our menu offers many of your favorite comfort foods including fried chicken, French fries, pies, spaghetti, burgers, and more but with a Filipino twist. What’s the twist? Lots of Joy with some Filipino sweetness. We believe that joyful food makes joyful people," the website states.
The Lincolnia building on Beauregard Street was previously occupied by Boston Market.
Jollibee has about 70 restaurants in the United States — primarily in California — and more than 1,300 restaurants worldwide. The only other Virginia location is in Virginia Beach. The closest currently-open location to Alexandria is in Wheaton, Maryland.
The company started in the Philippines.
