McDonough is ready toย โ€œRaise the bar!โ€Raising Caneโ€™sย opened its first Henry County Restaurant, marking its seventh restaurant in the Atlanta area.

Located atย 1842 Jonesboro Roadย off I-75 in the Henry Town Center in McDonough, this isnโ€™t just any restaurant, itโ€™s a McDonough masterpiece, decked out with nods to local legends like musician Josh Kelley, pro wrestler Austin Theory, and the Atlanta Braves.

Lines were wrapped around the building and cars were patiently waiting for doors to open.

During the opening ribbon cutting, a team of enthusiastic crewmembers were locked and loaded, and ready to serve up Chicken Finger meals, buttery Caneโ€™s Toast, premium crinkle-cut fries, and award-winning Caneโ€™s Sauce to the McDonough Community. Throughout the event, you could hear the Raising Caneโ€™s team cheering and celebrating this great moment.

Many Mcdonough residents participated also in a variety of canโ€™t-miss giveaways and celebrations including, a โ€œLucky 20โ€ drawing to award 20 Customers (age 13 and older) free Caneโ€™s for a Year, a commemorative hat, and a free Box Combo card for the first 100 Customers who purchase a Combo, a DJ spinning hits all day, and a check presentation to theย Shaquille O’Neal Boys & Girls Club of Henry County, supporting safe, inclusive spaces that empower young leaders to thrive.
