Over nine seasons, “The Office” regularly name-dropped real places and products associated with Scranton, where the Emmy-winning show was set. There’s the big pirate ship restaurant known as Cooper’s Seafood House and Poor Richard’s Pub inside a bowling alley. But in 2005, there was no Chili’s in the Pennsylvania city.

A Chili's "Scranton Branch" is opening near Scranton, Pennsylvania, next month in a nod to "The Office" television show, according to the restaurant chain.

"Given the ties that this brand has to Scranton, this one was definitely special for us," George Felix, Chili's chief marketing officer, told the Associated Press.
