Love Chicken is a fast food restaurant in Queenstown Central/Frankton built around a simple idea: you can change the world by what you choose to eat. The business prides itself on sourcing incredible ingredients from like-minded growers, farmers, bakers and food producers, with chicken that is free-range and organic — meaning no antibiotics, no chemicals, no chlorine and no hormones.
Love Chicken's chicken is sourced from Bostock's in Hawke's Bay, where Ben and his brother George raise chickens that roam free, scratching for worms under old apple groves. The kitchen carries that same care through the rest of the menu — chips are made from potatoes grown in the south, milkshakes use real organic fruit and milk, and salad greens are bought from two local growers down the road. Love Chicken is also proudly a Coca-Cola free zone.
Offering both dine-in and takeaway, Love Chicken Queenstown is open every day and takes online orders through Bopple, a system that rewards regular online customers.
Love Chicken in Queenstown Central/Frankton is built on a simple belief: you can change the world by what you choose to eat. It's a fast food restaurant with a clear point of view, describing itself as on a mission to change the world simply by doing things right.
At the heart of the menu is chicken sourced from Bostock's in Hawke's Bay, run by brothers Ben and George. Their chickens are free-range and organic — no antibiotics, no chemicals, no chlorine, no hormones — and roam free scratching for worms under old apple groves. Love Chicken puts it plainly: a happy chook makes for a tasty chook.
The care taken with the chicken carries through the rest of the menu. Chips are made from potatoes grown in the south, milkshakes are made with real organic fruit and milk, and salad greens come from two different local growers down the road. Love Chicken is also proudly a Coca-Cola free zone, a small but deliberate stance that fits with the rest of the business's approach to sourcing.
Love Chicken positions itself as fast food with heart — quick, convenient, but built on ingredients from like-minded growers, farmers, bakers and food producers rather than the standard fast food supply chain. It's a message the business repeats clearly: stand for something, start a revolution, love chicken not war.
