One of the fastest-growing burger concepts in the country is heading to Anna. According to public filings, Small Sliders plans to open at the southeast quadrant of N. Central Expressway, with construction scheduled to begin in late August and a completion date targeted for January 2027.
What Now Dallas reached out to Chris Raleigh, CEO of Serendipity, the North Dallas franchise company behind the project, to inquire about an opening timeline, but did not receive a response prior to publication.
Smalls Sliders has built its identity around a ruthlessly simple concept: one thing, done exceptionally well. The menu offers freshly grilled cheeseburger sliders made with premium beef, seasoned waffle fries, and hand-spun milkshakes, with a party pack of 25 sliders available for group occasions.
The Anna opening reflects the brand’s aggressive push across Collin County and surrounding markets. Raleigh, who has signed on to open at least five Smalls Sliders locations in the area, previously told What Now Dallas that his goal is for the brand to be an active member of its neighborhoods: participating in charities, little leagues, and community events.
“What really hooked me was the taste. It’s extremely high-quality food, who doesn’t like a burger?,” Raleigh previously told What Now Dallas.
What Now has previously covered Smalls Sliders’ North Texas expansion, including locations in McKinney, a second McKinney outpost, Arlington, and most recently North Richland Hills.
