Texas-born Raising Cane's rival eyes $1.1M move in Hill Country hot spot.

Texas-born Raising Cane's rival eyes $1.1M move in Hill Country hot spot. A college station-based chicken chain is expanding in the Texas Hill Country. By Nicholas Hernandez, New Braunfels Digital Reporter April 21, 2026 New Braunfels has long been defined by barbecue smoke, Tex-Mex staples and burger counters stretching along the I-35 corridor, but recent state filings show continued additions to a different category of fast casual dining that is steadily filling out the local restaurant map. Keep Watching 'Crazy Hispanic Fan': San Antonio coffee truck unveils newest themed menu Watch More New filings with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) list a new location for Layne's Chicken Fingers at Loop 337 in the Texas Hill Country town of New Braunfels. The filing identifies a new ground-up restaurant planned for private development on private land with a reported estimated construction cost of $1.1 million. Article continues below this ad The project timeline shows construction scheduled to begin July 15, with completion expected November 20. The building is planned at 2430 square feet and is described as wood-framed construction with fire suppression integrated into the fryer exhaust hood, a standard requirement for modern quick-service restaurant kitchens More For You The upcoming Layne's Chicken Figures location off of Loop 337 is near a growing retail destination in New Braunfels, situated just right outside New Braunfels High School, and minutes away from H-E-B and various dining options. Article continues below this ad In the context of the state record, this is another entry in a category that has become increasingly common in filings across fast casual chicken concepts and comes as the I-35 corridor witnesses a steady addition of new chicken-focused restaurants entering the Central Texas market. Layne's is one of several recognizable names in that space, which already includes multiple established competitors operating drive-thru and counter service models within the same regional footprint, including Raising Cane's, Church's Chicken, Popeyes and more.
