It’s the end of an era for Parson’s Chicken & Fish as its final day of service in Andersonville will be Sunday, October 19. From the Land and Sea Dept. hospitality group (Lonesome Rose, Longman & Eagle), the restaurant’s team recently shared the news on their Instagram page, saying the closure coincides with the expiration of its lease, adding that “it seems it’s time to move on.”

The Andersonville space, with a primo location on the corner of Clark Street and Edgewater Avenue, has been a beloved neighborhood hotspot since its opening in 2021, thanks to its massive patio dotted with red-and-white umbrellas, savory chicken and fish dishes, and the signature Negroni slushies.

“We have so appreciated getting to know and serve so many of you, and have greatly enjoyed our time in our Clark Street space,” the team adds in the Instagram post. “The last five years have gone by quickly, but have given us all so many good memories—ones we’ll all cherish forever.”

Parson’s will still be serving its signature fare at its Lincoln Park and Logan Square locations. In the meantime, you’ll be able to say your goodbyes to the Andersonville location as it will be open during its normal hours through October 19.
