PDQ – American
Brooksville location of PDQ, the fast-casual chicken chain founded in Tampa around a simple promise: People Dedicated to Quality. Hand-breaded tenders and nuggets anchor the menu with chicken sandwiches, fresh salads, sliders, crispy fries, fresh-baked cookies, and hand-spun shakes alongside, served via dine-in, drive-thru, and online ordering with delivery. Kids' meals and app rewards round out the routine. It suits Hernando County families, US 41 road-trippers, quick lunches with real breading, and dessert-first shake advocates. Since Bob Basham and Nick Reader opened the first store in Tampa in 2011, fresh-never-frozen chicken has been the chain's defining habit.
