They will open the new restaurants under Dickey's new store model, with a rustic look featuring reclaimed wood and a glass display case for meats, as well as a smaller footprint. "After touring the new store model in Dallas we knew that we wanted to open this concept in Buffalo," Westby says. "The modern authentic vibe and rustic look will be popular here, and we look forward to serving Texas-style barbecue to the community here." The duo hopes to open several more locations in the future.
"Dickey's is continuing to expand across the East Coast," says Roland Dickey, Jr., CEO of Dickey's Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. "Currently we have four locations in New York State, and we look forward to opening the two new stores in this area and expanding throughout the surrounding Northeastern states."
