Chickadee Chick, the grilled chicken and frozen custard joint on Seventh Avenue between First and Garfield, has closed up shop. It caused a bit of a splash when it first opened nearly two years ago, (largely due to its name and great signage) but interest from the neighborhood began to wane as it was deemed nothing to write home about.

The restaurant's chicken was marinated overnight in a lemongrass mixture before being grilled within view of the public, but that concept didn't exactly play out because as business dried up, so did the mounds of chicken left piled up on the grill.

Their menu was originally pretty small and straightforward, focusing on chicken (grilled and in sandwiches), custard, fried, wings, and chicken nuggets, but last year they expanded the menu, adding panini, salads, and gut-busting items like country fried steak on a roll, topped with fried onions, country gravy, and beans.
