Delicious. Had never been there and my grandsons wanted to check it out. They were brave and got the spicy chicken, I got the mild. All 3 of us loved every bite!

Went back to Dave's hot chicken for their free slider if you have the app. It's still as great as the first time I had it! Chicken is crispy and juicy but watch out because they bring the heat! Service is always quick and friendly. 

Business response:

Boom! Glad you loved it! Thanks for the awesome review!

After our first bad experience and posting an official review - management reached out. While the process was unorganized and redundant we ended up receiving a gift card to try our business again in hopes for a better experience. The staff today was very polite. We ordered the party size chicken bites (with no spice) and box of fries. Both the chicken and the fries were crispy and up to agreeable standard in temperature, flavor and texture. We skipped ordering drinks this time as we are still weary from the last visit.... read more

I've been wanting to try it, and now I have. Having said that, it's not top of my list. I ordered a two strip basket, not realizing that everything, including the fries, would be coated in seasoning. Also not sure why they give you two pieces of plain white bread. Obviously I just don't get it. The chicken was juicy, but I only ate one strip and donated the rest of my meal. It was fine, but I doubt I'll be returning any time soon. 

Business response:

Super nice people working here. Nice inside. First time trying, we got 2chicken tenders with fries. One Mild and one Hot. I didn't think either of them was that spicy, I'd opt for extra hot next time. The fries were good ( love a good crinkle fry). Also got a vanilla shake and it was on par with McDonald's vanilla shake. I can say I finally tried Dave's Hot Chicken!!

Besides the free milkshake for this review the food was beyond my expectations and can out faster then I thought was possible, Charles working the counter as usual was the best worker in the state of Vermont, I can not wait to come back here soon.

Had a chance to check this place out. We tried the chicken sandwiches and the tenders. Food wise, I don't think is like the best chicken, I would probably put it number 2 or 3, where they shine is on the prices and service. You get a lot of food for the price and I think that matters, the chicken is good dont get me wrong, not my number one. The service was good people super friendly. The place in Newington is bright and colorful. I would definitely get some chicken While in the area.

A little bit of a wait but chicken sandwiches are amazing and Buffalo cauliflower bites are cooked to perfection in my opinion looking for a place to try on Berlin turnpike try Dave's Hot chicken service is excellent

Food was simply amazingly awesome and service was impeccable can't wait to visit again soon. Charles and I are tight now and the food was prepared faster than the speed of light. Walking out of the door brought a sort of sadness to my heart but It will be restored next time I come
