The chicken has officially landed in Seguin. Layne’s Chicken Fingers has opened its newest location along the State Highway 46 corridor, bringing the College Station-born chicken chain to one of the fastest-growing areas of the San Antonio region.
The restaurant celebrated its ribbon cutting September 8 before holding its grand opening September 12.
Known for its crispy, hand-breaded chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, Texas toast and signature Layne’s Sauce, the restaurant is the latest addition to the growing lineup of businesses along the highway.

Layne’s was founded in College Station in 1994 and has since expanded to more than 40 locations. The brand has grown beyond Texas, with restaurants in states including Arkansas, Georgia and Wisconsin. Its corporate franchise headquarters is now based in Frisco.
The Seguin restaurant was planned as a $1.6 million, 2,670-square-foot ground-up build, according to Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filings. At the time, the project was originally scheduled for completion in May 2026. All TDLR filings are subject to change without notice.
The new restaurant is part of Layne’s broader expansion as the brand continues adding locations across Texas and beyond, including a site in Buda and New Braunfels.
