Looks like Astro Doughnuts will be opening up in Falls Church this summer! Anybody tried their Fried Chicken?

Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken is coming to Falls Church
By Becky Krystal March 4
Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken can now officially be called a chain(let).
Falls Church is the lucky winner in the doughnut shop's expansion sweepstakes. Astro's second location is slated to open in Idylwood Plaza at 7501 Leesburg Pike sometime this summer.
According to a press release, the new shop's menu will largely overlap with that of Astro's G Street NW outpost, which opened in 2013, but the new location will include more sides and sandwiches. (Astro's food truck launched last year.) There will also be additional breakfast options, which could be a very good or very bad thing for morning commuters heading to the nearby West Falls Church Metro station. Expect to see drip and cold-brew La Colombe coffee, as well as expanded capabilities for catering and private events.
The 1,200-square-foot Falls Church Astro will have limited seating, unlike the standing-room-only shoebox of a shop downtown.
As you might recall, Astro's creme brulee doughnut was the winner of our epic Doughnut Wars competition in 2013; readers nominated it as one of Washington's essential eats last year.

Why would they locate in Falls Church when they could be in Vienna? This makes no sense.

Too costly to pay protection to the mattress mafia.

Isn't having donuts going to hurt their fried chicken business when the customers see all the cop cars?
