About Our Hempstead Location

Our Hempstead store at 519 Fulton Avenue has been part of the neighborhood since 1988, just minutes from Hempstead Public Library, Hofstra University, and Roosevelt Field. We've watched the neighborhood grow up around us — and we've fed a lot of it along the way.

What makes Hempstead different from our Elmont location:

The drive-thru. If you're short on time, our Fulton Avenue drive-thru window lets you grab fresh fried chicken, wings, or a family meal without leaving your car. It's a Long Island favorite for lunch breaks, late-night cravings, and quick weeknight dinners.

A real dining room. If you'd rather sit down, we've got a dedicated dining area where you can eat fresh from the fryer. Casual, family-friendly, no pretense — just good food.

Free parking. Our open lot makes runs easy whether you're picking up a single combo or loading the trunk with catering trays for an event.

Three generations of regulars. We've served grandparents, parents, and now their kids. That's not a marketing tagline — it's just what happens when you stick around for 35+ years and keep the recipe right.
