DALLAS, April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Pollo Campero, the Guatemalan-born fast-casual restaurant specializing in uniquely flavorful chicken, is celebrating its 100th U.S. restaurant opening with the release of a new limited-time St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® commemorative cup that unlocks free Pollo Campero drink refills for life.*

Starting April 10, 2024, guests who purchase the exclusive 32-ounce cup for $5 will enjoy free refills of Campero beverage favorites, including aguas frescas and fountain drinks. To commemorate the 100th-location milestone, Pollo Campero will donate $100,000 to St. Jude, funded in part by proceeds from the cup. The contribution will support St. Jude in its work to advance treatments and cures for life-threatening pediatric diseases.

“Reaching this milestone speaks to our loyal customers who love the brand just as much as our hometown customers in Central America,” said Chief Operating Officer and Managing Director Luis Javier Rodas. “As a gesture of appreciation for our dedicated customers, we invite everyone nationwide to join us in the celebration by supporting St. Jude and enjoying drinks on us for life with the purchase of a $5 cup. The cups are limited, so run, don’t walk, to your nearest Pollo Campero.”

Miami locals can look forward to the grand opening event on April 10 at 11 a.m., featuring food giveaways, prizes, live entertainment and more. Plus, the first 100 guests to make a purchase that day will receive FREE Pollo Campero for a year**. Customers can begin lining up at 10:30 a.m. on April 10.

“As we continue to expand our footprint and bring delicious flavors to new communities, we’re committed to upholding the values we’ve had since day one to provide quality, authenticity and flavorful menu options to our valued customers,” said Rodas.
