Fancy Funkin Chicken is a chicken shop and bar with a menu of traditional herbed and spiced free-range fried chicken. Ethically sourced birds from a farm in Glastonbury are crusted with a Southern American recipe.
Highlights include a trio of Funkin Hot Wings, Funkin Funkin Hot Wings and I Can’t Feel My Funkin Face Hot Wings. Wings and boneless bites feature alongside a selection of fried or flame grilled chicken breast or thigh burgers such as the Totally Tropical Burger, served with char’d pineapple and smoked chilli mayo and the Big Cheese Burger, slathered with triple cheese, caramelised onion and honey glazed bacon. \\
Teamed up with sides of fiery Chilli Cheese Fries, America’s favourite Tater Tots, Waffles andCorn Breads “a corn 3-wayâ€Â, and polished off with Doughnuts straight out of the fryer..
Signature cocktails include the Hibiscus and Blackcurrant Julep, using a sprinkle of homemade hibiscus and blackcurrant syrup with Bourbon, mint and a dash of lime, and the Daisy, a mix of Tequila, fresh passion fruit, passion liqueur, lime and Aperol over ice.
The 50 cover dining room’s interior uses raw materials such as oak and rusted steel. Hand-crafted antique and orange neon lighting illuminate navy walls and exposed brickwork adorned with graffiti art. Quirky furnishings such as chicken-shaped wall lights, together with a garden of herbs suspended overhead make for an alluring pen.
Fancy Funkin Chicken will play host to an eclectic and upbeat music programme of Jazz and Funk, with DJ’s performing from Thursday through toSunday to get the party started.
