01Who We Are

CHICKEN DONE PROPERLY

At Chick Shack, we believe fried chicken should be an experience — not an afterthought. Every piece is marinated for hours, hand-coated in our signature blend of spices, and fried to golden, crispy perfection.

Our peri peri is made from scratch using authentic African bird’s eye chillies, blended with fresh herbs and citrus. Two heat levels — Mild or Hot — both built from real, layered flavour.

02How We Do It

FROM RAW TO READY

No shortcuts. No freezer-to-fryer. Just four honest steps between the bird and the box.

01Step 01

Marinate

24 hours in a buttermilk bath with our house spice blend — every piece, every time.

02Step 02

Hand-Coat

Dredged by hand in seasoned flour for the signature craggy, crisp crust.

03Step 03

Flame / Fry

Flame-grilled over open heat for peri peri. Pressure-fried golden for the classics.

04Step 04

Serve

Boxed fresh, sent out hot — collection or delivery, seven days a week.

FEEL THE HEAT

Two levels of peri peri. Both built from scratch, both worth ordering.

03The Peri Peri Story

TWO HEAT LEVELS.
REAL FLAVOUR.

Peri peri means “pepper pepper”in Swahili — a name Portuguese traders gave to the African bird’s eye chilli. We take those chillies, blend them with fresh garlic, herbs, and citrus, and cook the sauce down in-house until it’s bold, bright, and layered.

Every grilled item is basted to order. Choose Mild for warmth and depth, or Hot for the full chilli kick. No gimmicks, no Scoville-ladder theatre — just two honest heats, both worth ordering.
