About Chicken George Jnr

Chicken George Jnr is a fried chicken takeaway at 107 Bancroft in Hitchin. Chicken comes as pieces and as strips served with a garlic and parmesan sauce. The wings come in several flavours, including Thai (Thai me up) and jerk coconut and lime, which gives a wing order more range than a single sauce. A "pig out" sharer is on the menu for ordering together, and burgers and sides sit alongside the chicken. Sauces are also sold to take home.

Customer Review Summary

Buffalo wings come up most, with one reviewer calling the biggies buffalo the best buffalo wings they have eaten, and others naming the Thai, garlic, honey garlic and jerk coconut and lime flavours. Close behind is the fried chicken, described as crispy but not greasy and juicy, with huge breast pieces and massive strips served with a garlic and parmesan sauce. Burgers, loaded tator tots and mac and cheese also get mentions, and portions are repeatedly called huge or generous. Staff are described as friendly and welcoming, and several say the food arrived quickly. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found some of the chicken too salty, another found the buffalo parmesan flavours overpowering and too spicy, and one says service can be a bit slow at times. Several travelled a long way to eat here. One diner who struggled with the spice says the kitchen made a special red dragon munch box instead, and found it better.

    “As someone who has eaten in and taken away from here many times, I have never come away disappointed. The staff are always lovely and the food is always as advertised (or better). We had the privilege of being tended to by Kenza (not for the first time) and the service was as smooth and enjoyable as last time. I'll never not recommend this place!”

    “Got there just after opening on a Sunday lunchtime, got sat down no problems. Food arrived very quickly and was delicious. Portion sizes are honestly HUGE. They could probably get away with charging less and making them smaller! Loving the 90s dance anthems in the background, too 😁”

    “Visited Chicken George Jnr Hitchin last night and honestly, it did not disappoint 🔥 The food was absolutely on point — everything tasted fresh, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. The chicken in particular was cooked perfectly: crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and flavoured & seasoned just right. Portions were generous too, The staff were friendly, efficient, and really on it with the service, which made the whole experience even better. Great menu with plenty of tasty options to choose from on menu as well. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to — highly recommend & well worth travelling too, if you’re craving proper, quality flavour-packed chicken 🙌 Awesome 👌”

    “CHICKEN FOR THE PEOPLE! Couldn’t recommend this enough, I live about 30 mins away and have been multiple times with friends it is that good! Stick to the chicken it does not lie, I would advices order a 1 pc chicken and asking for a breast piece (they are huge). I love the buffalo, Thai and garlic wings those are my favourites. Garlic ones are very very garlicky. If I was getting a meal would get a burger but double it up and put it in a wrap, so nice! People involved are so nice and welcoming, happy to help with anything.”

    “We had the Parmesan buffalo munch box for £14.99 and they kindly did a special red dragon munch box for £14.99. The portion size is very generous and the Mac and cheese was amazing. I found the flavours in the buffalo Parmesan very over powering, a little too spicy for me, I couldn’t get away from the spice! however the red dragon was better!”
