The Famous Dave's barbecue chain, which has locations in South Philly, Northeast Philly, Springfield and Cherry Hill, is moving into Center City they're taking over what was Goodburger at 1725 Chestnut, the location's franchisee confirms to Meal Ticket. The burger joint closed in August of 2009. We'll have further details on the project soon; for now, a liquor license application in the window suggests they'll be serving booze along with the 'cue.

I have been a fan of Famous Daves since long before I moved to Philadelphia. I could eat there every week now that we have one so close to home! This is the first time I've tried the new Chestnut Street location, we usually eat at the South Philly restaurant on Columbus. I love this little spot and I had a great meal here.
