Plan your visitAbout The Chicken Home
Modbury North’s go-to takeaway delivers old-school charcoal-bar chicken, towering burgers, and crisp hot chips packed to the brim. The kitchen serves generous comfort with zero fuss—whether it is a hefty calamari pack, a loaded hamburger with the lot, or a quick midday order of chips and rich gravy ready in under five minutes. Sides get proper care too, including house-made salads and crunchy coleslaw made without heavy layers of mayonnaise. Regulars know the drill when picking up dinner: fryer baskets emptied generously, leaving a loose handful of seasoned extra chips tipped right into the brown paper bag.
- Surplus chip scoops: Orders frequently come with extra hot chips tipped straight into the takeaway bag beyond the standard pack size.
- Balanced house slaw: Salads are made fresh daily, featuring crunchy coleslaw prepared light on mayonnaise rather than heavy dressing.
- Brisk counter service: The kitchen churns out hot orders like gravy-soaked chips and wraps in under five minutes from a spotless counter.
