A savory sandwich that s long been a favorite of guests at a popular Jacksonville neighborhood restaurant laid the foundation for a new eatery that opened this week in Jacksonville Beach.
An all-natural chicken breast lightly breaded for a crispy crust has topped the menu at The Local since the restaurant opened nearly four years ago in the Miramar neighborhood of Jacksonville.
The popularity of the chicken sandwich grew as The Local s co-founders and owners Ted Stein and JC Demetree opened the Neptune Beach location of the restaurant in 2019.
The chicken sandwich along with nuggets and tenders are front and center at Wonderbird the new fast-food chicken restaurant opened Tuesday by Stein and Demetree in Jacksonville Beach.
