Hot off the heels of GBD‘s opening Friday, D.C. now has its second fried chicken and doughnut spot: Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken. The first 200 people in line at the Metro Center shop today (after the 8 a.m. opening) will get a free doughnut with any purchase. The first 50 lunch customers (beginning at 11 a.m.) will get a complimentary side with any chicken order.

The fried chicken comes in traditional buttermilk with a recipe from chef Jason Gehring‘s family or double-fried Korean style with a spicy garlic or Sriracha glaze. Prices are two pieces for $5.25; four pieces for $10; eight pieces for $18.50; or three chicken tenders for $5. There’s also a chicken BLT for $7 and potato salad and Asian slaw for sides.

The doughnut menu ($2.25 -$2.85) includes some staples like maple bacon and crème brûlée plus daily changing flavors. Check out the full doughnut menu below. Astro will be open from 8 a.m. until food runs out today through April 12. After that, the hours are 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays.
