This fun family-friendly spot is on a mission to prove that good value, convenient food doesn’t have to be made from substandard ingredients that are as bad for the planet as they are for your body.
Menus are sourced locally from sustainable producers with a focus on free-range, organic chicken from Bostock’s, a family-run farm in Hawkes Bay. Enjoy chicken fried, rotisserie cooked, shredded and in burgers… if you can imagine it, they probably serve it!
Little ones will love the frothy milkshakes and you’ll love the fact that this is officially a coca cola free zone! Instead, wet your whistle with a selection of natural, low sugar soft drinks, a range of beers or glass of wine on tap.
Pop in for a quick lunch with the kids or round up your mates for a low-key dinner and you’ll be joining the revolution, one delicious bite at a time!

We had a nice lunch for father's day. Buffalo wings was a winner. Our girls love theirs too. Very friendly and smiley staff.
Minie Luke - dined at Love Chicken on 1 September 2019
We enjoyed the chicken and loved the cabinet salad. At $14, the wine is a little over-priced seeing it comes from a tap and is served in a water tumbler not a wine glass.
Michael Anderson - dined at Love Chicken on 28 August 2019
The kids and hubby loved it. Good value for money and food was amazing.
Margi Jamieson - dined at Love Chicken on 25 August 2019
Enjoyed our first experience, the staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. As a visitor to the area did find it difficult to find.
Tricia McKnight - dined at Love Chicken on 22 August 2019
Really nice chicken and good service
Dennys Andrade - dined at Love Chicken on 26 July 2019
Excellent, friendly service. Delicious fried chicken burger and chicken legs, (they gave us an extra couple of chicken legs too, which was a nice gesture). The berry milkshake was so creamy and a real treat! Highly recommend this relaxed diner and they do take away food if you're not dining in.
Theresa Denton - dined at Love Chicken on 20 August 2019
Excellent service and really good food. Great for families
Rebecca Brooks - dined at Love Chicken on 16 August 2019

Carina Taylor - dined at Love Chicken on 15 August 2019
Great food, great service. Fantastic gluten free options for my coeliac son (they have their own GF coating for the chicken and use separate fryers)
Siobhan Early - dined at Love Chicken on 17 August 2019
I had passed Love Chicken several times and when was reminded I wanted to check it out when First Table sent an email. We booked in for Sunday lunch. I only buy free range chicken now and was attracted by the knowledge they only use this. We were warmly welcomed and seated. Ordering is done at the counter, so we sat to look at the menu. Between the four of us, we tried the Hot Wings, Fried Drumsticks, a couple of burgers, salads and fries. The menu is not overcrowded with many or complicated items, but everything we tried was delicious and quality food. We will definitely return!
Marie Burch - dined at Love Chicken on 4 August 2019
no need to mention about food quality as its always great.
the service they providing is out standing!! always nice place to eat!!
thank you so much "love chicken" team!!
Masami Nakai - dined at Love Chicken on 1 August 2019
Food was good, as always. The restaurant (especially the toilets) is looking pretty dirty which is a shame
Lisa Anderson - dined at Love Chicken on 28 July 2019
Fried chicken is fantastic
Yana Liauw - dined at Love Chicken on 18 July 2019
The chicken burgers were delicious & filling along with fries. Various menu selection & a kid's meal which was ideal for our 2 year old.
Zoe Richardson - dined at Love Chicken on 24 July 2019
A different theme on a chicken fast food option: casual dining, better than going to a KFC. Our meals took time to come considering but was worth the wait. Staff can tone down the spicy if requested and nothing seemed to be a problem.
Adrienne Chin - dined at Love Chicken on 15 July 2019
Always delicious!
Lisa Anderson - dined at Love Chicken on 14 July 2019
I had the original burger and it was delicious, buffalo tenders and blue cheese dip was also outstanding. Would eat here again.
Anthony Te Tau - dined at Love Chicken on 13 July 2019
Staff are friendly.
Mavin HS Yong - dined at Love Chicken on 9 July 2019
I love your blue cheese sauce. Chicken was lovely, maybe just too much sauce, even tho we both love spicy food it was a bit too much-not the spicines but something else in the sauce, we couldn't figured out what. Could do with more items in the menu too.
Kristyna Zakova - dined at Love Chicken on 7 July 2019
Most delicious fried chicken and rotisserie chicken too! We also had sides including the kumara chips which were perfectly done. Lovely friendly staff too and the best is that they cater for those that are gluten free as well! This is the only place that we've been to that will do gluten free fried chicken!!
Chooi -Lee Hong - dined at Love Chicken on 8 July 2019
Really good burger and chips!
Priscila Ackermann - dined at Love Chicken on 29 June 2019
Really enjoyed the food and for the price you cannot complain! You can tell the chicken is a high quality and the taste of everything we had was great. Would 100% recommend the LC Dragon Burger! Would definitely go back again
Daniel Popalis - dined at Love Chicken on 28 June 2019
Delicious. The only criticism I could think of is the stools are uncomfortable. But the food is absolutely delicious.
Lisa Anderson - dined at Love Chicken on 29 June 2019
Enjoyed the great food and appreciate the great service and hospitality too. We’ll be back!
Amy Brown - dined at Love Chicken on 22 June 2019
I loved the food!! My family not so much. A bit spicy for the children and the dairy allergy person was less than impressed that the rotisserie chicken is brushed with butter..boo!
Sharron Anderson - dined at Love Chicken on 19 June 2019
The service was really good. The kids has a chicken burger and tenders which were both great. We had the chicken wings which we wanted to love but seemed to lack seasoning. Love the ethos of the restaurant. Atmosphere was great... the wings just fell a bit flat for us.
Sandra Smith - dined at Love Chicken on 16 June 2019
Scrumptious. The pulled chicken with slaw and barbecue sauce was delicious. Yummy fried chicken with fries. All nine greasy and super tasty. Love the ambiance of the place
Anne Withington - dined at Love Chicken on 18 June 2019
Absolutely incredible, we ate here after a friend recommended the place and it blew my expectations. The tastiest chicken in Queenstown!!! Cooked perfectly, Great flavour, all the sides were amazing, the mac and cheese, kamura fries, my mouth is watering leaving this review. The burgers looked insane, I will be going back to this restaurant regularly!
jack docherty - dined at Love Chicken on 15 June 2019
Friendly service, and no words to describe how absolutely amazing the burger and mac and cheese are!! Definitely going back!
