Why did the chicken cross the road on Pirie Street?

To get slathered in authentic Nashville inspired hot spices at Cheekies Hot Chicken new venue!

With their new store set to open at 86 Pirie Street in mid-April of 2022, the new Cheekies Hot Chicken is set to pack a punch for all those hungry lunchtime and dinner urges.

With Cheekies already slinging out hot, chicken goodness at Rundle Street’s BRKLYN, the new establishment will be surrounded by choice on the popular foodie strip that houses Oggi and Abbots & Kinney on Pirie Street.

But, if you really like your chicken hot, this is the joint to hit up.

A lot of the time you’ll order a hot seasoned burger and it won’t live up to the heat hype. Cheekies can set your tastebuds alight with their Super Hot coating.

Super Hot is coated in a spice blend of Reaper, Ghost Pepper and Habanero. If you think you can handle it then book in to do their spice challenge.

Looking for something a little on the cooler side, but still with a bit of kick? Don’t sweat it, Cheekies will have you covered with a range of heat levels available.

With a menu stacked with choices like, spicy chicken strips, Mac ‘n’ Cheese sides and cool thick shakes available to drown out the heat, Cheekies looks like the place to be for a filling dinner date.

Love to be on the other side of the kitchen and help create these amazing chicken dishes? Cheekie’s is looking for staff.

The starting team has been announced, but more staff members will be needed. It’s also an excellent opportunity for hospitality workers looking to get away from night shifts as the new location will be heavily lunch focused.

You can apply via e-mail at: [email protected]. Or if you prefer a little face-to-face time, drop your resume into BRKLYN on Rundle Street anytime from 5pm during the week.

Cheekies Hot Chicken on 86 Pirie Street will be opening in mid April and an official date isn’t set, but we’re told it’s very close to completion!
