About Chicken Chef

Chicken Chef turns out hot rotisserie poultry and legendary in-house hand-cut chips, serving comfort food in serious portions. Regulars treat this counter-service staple as a weeknight fixture, ordering hefty chicken schnitty hot packs stacked with chips, peas, carrots, and warm gravy. Takeaway chips travel in their own dedicated paper bag to stay crisp, while cold roast chickens sit in the fridge ready for a quick reheat at half the cost. Phone ahead during busy dinner runs to grab piping-hot tenders right off the pass without waiting in line.

  • Hand-cut chips: Potatoes are cut by hand on-site, fried crisp, and packed in separate bags to prevent steam from softening them.
  • Cold chicken value packs: Chilled whole roast chickens, drumsticks, and wings are stocked for home reheating at nearly half the price.
  • Hefty hot packs: Schnitzels and roast quarters come with generous scoops of chips, house gravy, peas, and carrots.

  • Juicy Chilled Chicken at Half Price

    Pre-cooked chilled whole chickens and pieces offer an economical, effortless meal prep option that remains juicy upon reheating.

    When reheated in the microwave, the chicken remains remarkably juicy and flavourful, comparable to freshly prepared hot chicken, while being offered at approximately half the price.
