The new Huck's, located at 1000 Lemons Mill Road, is nearing completion. Huck's will not only offer 🍕 Godfather's pizza, but also a new option for Georgetown's fried bird aficionados. 🐔 Cluck’s Coop Fried Chicken will serve up hand-breaded fried chicken, tenders, and potato wedges made throughout the day. Huck’s will also have the usual stop-and-go items like roller dogs, burgers, breakfast sandwiches, those drinks you can't fit in your cupholder and cheap coffee. ☕

A grand opening date hasn't been set. Updates coming soon!
