From Local Favorite to Nationwide Franchise

Hot Chikn Kitchn first opened its doors in 2020 in Woodbridge, Virginia.

Hot Chikn Kitchn's popularity wasn't limited to Virginia. In 2022, the company decided to share its success by launching a franchise program. This gave entrepreneurs the chance to bring the unique flavors of Nashville hot chicken to their own towns.
