My favorite part of Chook is the small area for kids. It's a big deal for a restaurant to offer a space like this that could be used for other things. It makes eating in easier with the kids in tow!
What the heck is Chook? That was my first thought when my sister told me where we were going for dinner. She explained that "Chook" is Aussie slang for chicken, and chicken is absolutely Chook's speciality! Chook offers a rotisserie style chicken seasoned and cooked to perfection. You can order the Chook for You, Chook for Two, or the Chook for family - each coming with an increasing number of sides! There are so many delicious sides that it is honestly hard to choose - from potato wedges to chicken soup to salad. I ordered the Chook for You with Chook wedges and I added an extra side of chicken noodle soup. To say I left stuffed is an understatement, and that was after I shared my chicken and potato wedges with my family! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, while the wedges were soft and warm. I also really enjoyed the chicken noodle soup considering the freezing temperatures outside! It had huge chunks of chicken in it, too. I also ordered a cocktail, but it was pretty average and could not really compare to the tastiness of the food. Service was super friendly and very fast! There is street parking, and the restaurant was kept very clean. I would highly recommend Chook for a casual, tasty, and health-conscious dinner.
Basic, standard spot for lunch. Service was very quick and efficient. I ordered the chicken ceasar wrap, and it was in my hands in less than 3 minutes.
Just in case you're thinking about ordering the $13 Chicken Caesar wrap- here is a photo. The dressing container is a 2 oz portion cup for reference. Taste good but so disappointingly tiny.
This was probably a 3.5 star experience, rounded up for convenient pickup (they'll bring it out to your car). The chicken was good - juicy and flavorful! - but the sides were a letdown. The "charred" vegetables definitely were not - they were undercooked and hard. The mac and cheese was pretty terrible! It was dry and lumpy without much sauce or flavor. The peri-peri sauce that came with the chicken was good (but tasted more like red bell pepper than peri-peri.) The salad was good too (I got the beet berry one.) I'd give it another try but was bummed two of the side dishes were very lackluster.
Wow! This chicken is absolutely incredible! It's hands down one of the best I've ever tasted in Denver!
Food: The chicken was excellent, with tasty sauces to go with (we went for the chimichurri and piri-piri). The sides were also good -- I loved the seasoned potato wedges, and my wife is still talking about the cucumber salad. Drink: They have liquor, beer, and wine as well as the usual. Tasty. Service: Counter worker was friendly, patient with our first visit, and got our food out fast. Some of the tables sat without being cleared for a while, but part of that was how busy they are. Ambiance: Very fast-casual, but nicely decorated, and arranged. Parking (on the street) is a bit of an issue, esp. with construction going on at the moment, but if I lived here, I'd be doing take out at least once a week.
I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. When I looked at the menu I thought it would be very basic but the sandwich had good flavor and d the bread was toasted perfectly. The side of Mac and cheese was basic. Next time I will get the roasted veggies which I had a taste of. The margaritas were okay but a little small for the price. Service was fine since you order at the counter and they bring it to you.
First time coming into this place and I was blown away. Awesome setup and amazing food. I got the chicken curry sandwich and the avacado chicken sandwich. Both fantastic! Great location and the people who work here are very friendly. You can see the cook the moment you walk in and what he's up to. Behind him will be the chicken's cooking. This place has quality everything and makes sure everything is of utmost quality. The B certified is a pretty big deal that I had no idea about until I was informed what it was. Directly from the website "Certified B Corporations are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. Unlike other certifications for businesses, B Lab is unique in our ability to measure a company's entire social and environmental impact." They are apparently the only place around that is b certified! Im excited to try more foods From here and again the sandwiches I had were fire
I'm biased because I have an Aussie bf but this place is delicious! The chicken is well seasoned, and super moist (sorry for saying the m word). I lovvvee the winter berry salad! All the different ingredients mix together perfectly in a bite. Oh, and you can't forget the mashed potatoes and gravy... hands down the best part! You can taste the homemade-ness! The staff has always been super friendly and bubbly whenever we go in. I would definitely give this place a try! Its like Boston Market but 10000 times better! read more

Wonderful, fairly prized, fairly sized chicken spot on S Pearl. Will absolutely come back. Came here for a mid-week dinner with three friends. Had a bit of wait to find seating / place our order. The interior is simple but very warm and welcoming. Cool design features, well thought out space, beautiful plates / cutlery / food presentation. Food - very good. We ordered a whole chicken, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, dinner rolls; sauces were peri peri, macha and the gravy. Everything tasted delicious and fresh. My only piece of feedback? Make the sides a little more adventurous / bold. Rotisserie chicken is something we all recognize and are comfortable with. Consider challenging diners with edgier sides. Service. Awesome - everyone that worked here was super friendly, attentive and good at their jobs. I'll be back! Can't beat this quality of food at the price point. read more
Chook specializes in that sweet juicy rotisserie chicken. If you love chicken, eating for the gains, or just finding a nice date spot, then chook is for you! We got the half chicken deal that comes with a salad and two sides. I don't ever eat kale, but their kale salad is packed with ingredients and flavor that I'll eat kale here! The mac and cheese is that perfect gooey cheesey consistency that you see in your dreams. The squash is cooked just right where it's soft with a little bit of char. But dat chicken... is Fiya! Their chicken is so juicy and flavorful that you can eat it with no sauce. You seriously cannot find rotisserie chicken like this anywhere ever. But if you do need the sauce, chook offers a selection made in house that you can pick from. You can wash all the delicious goodness down with beer, wine, or cocktails. Chook satisfies the trifecta of great food, ambiance, and people. Go here, no regrets!! read more
Wow! OMG! Delish! These are the first thoughts you will have when you take your first bite of a Chook's charcoal cooked chicken. The seasoning blend gives the chicken and extra blast of flavor from the turmeric, mustard, white pepper, fenugreek seeds (gives it a smoky and sweet flavor) and a hint of ginger. I've been a fan of Alex Seidel ever since I first at Fruition five years ago. This fast casual restaurant is convenient for those who want to grab dinner for the family and take it home. We order online, pick it up and out the door with fantastic chicken and sides on the dinner table that is reasonably priced. read more

The food is AMAZING!!!! Nice mix of authentic Aussie food and a modern twist on some new dishes!! Must grab a side of corn (to die for) then finish your yummy chook meal with an authentic lamington (twice to die for). Joshua is the new chef and he doesn't disappoint!!! Definitely on the favourites list!!! read more
The place is only 2 weeks old and its running crazy already. Hit it up on an off-hour for a solo late lunch on a Sunday and there was barely an empty table in the place. Prepared myself by reading all of my Yelp-buddies' reviews beforehand so I was ready to order at the walk-up fast-casual service booth with no delay. Had a half chicken with a side of roasted vegetables along with a roll and a beer. Really very tastey. The skin is charred (but unfortunately not crispy). The chicken however is extremely moist and flavorful. They serve it with a bottled rub at each table that's a bit salty and paprika-ish and yummy. I had the piri-piri sauce which seemed to be made of pureed peppers and added a neat kick to the chicken. The price point is reasonable and I took home enough leftovers for a second meal, or, if my honey hadn't gone out partying with her bud-ettes we could easily have had enough for us both for under $15 a person including a drink each. Definitely a place worth returning to (and that shouldn't be a surprise since it's a cool concept restaurant started up by the owners of Fruition and the Mercantile, two of Denver's most successful culinary ventures). All in all a bloody good chook, ya chook. Sign me, David "the big emu" M read more
Awesome find today! I was a bit hesitant since it's chicken and what can I say? It's almost always dry! Not here! Same prolific owners of Fruition and Snooze. Chook excels in simpler food. The star is of course the chicken cooked over coals. Chook is Australian slang for chicken. This is an upscale fast-casual spot. A whole juicy chicken will run you $20. Half $13. 1/4 dark $6 and white $8. You get a choice of one their tasty sauce. Gravy. Chimichurri. Piri-Piri. I tried their chicken, Mac and cheese and their Booyah Stew. It's basically a stew with pulled chicken and all the charred mixed vegetables. It's really good. Clear broth tastes healthy and the charred taste of veggies distinctly pops. That gives it an exceptional taste. The quinoa gives it that added texture! Check out the Booyah Kit $10 to take home. It's the innovative approach to addressing leftovers. Comes with instructions of course! Their cocktails are called the Happy Pots . I noticed an Old Fashioned, Spot-On Negroni, Dry Gin Martini and Dirty Vodka. That contraption called the spit is directly from Australia. Uniquely very well suited to do what it's intended to do. Roast chicken well and keep them perfectly in place! Although the sauces are tasty I highly suggest getting a bite of the chicken without the sauce. It's really good without it! read more

Very respectful and polite staff! Thank you. We enjoyed the avocado chicken sandwich and chicken slides with heavy. Our sides were street corn and cucumber. Very enjoyable. Everything had a great flavor and tasted fresh. We will return read more

I am truly bummed to say that this place failed miserably. The quality of the chicken sandwich I ordered seriously tasted like store bought chicken salad on, smushed down into a tiny shape that was fairly flavorless and boring. The side "broccoli" was also unappealing and overpriced; it was basically a side salad with some broccoli in it. All in all, I paid over $20 for a meal that I could've made at home for $5 with probably more flavor. Sorry guys. You blew it read more

This had to be one of the top 10 meals I've had in Denver. And that's saying something because we did take out! My boyfriend and I split a For Two meal with half a chicken, a side of corn, and potatoes (all shareable size). We also got a small side of veggies. Everything was delicious! The seasoning on the chicken and potato wedges was delicious, the perfect amount of salty and savory. The corn was on a whole other level-- the orange sauce it was lathered in was to die for. We dipped the potatoes in it and tried to leave some for the chicken as well, altho everything tasted good on its own. The chimichurri sauce for the chicken was great too. I was only able to get a picture of the corn because we were so hungry we devoured everything so quick! read more

I like the food but the servings are really small and skimpy, especially for the price. We ordered the chook dinner for four and it felt more like a dinner for two. For the price we should at least be able to feed 4 people. Disappointing. read more

Ordered for the second time in a year, I live alone and this is the best deal in the city for a small thanksgiving meal. I shouldnt say small because it's for 4 people, but for the price it works out great. If ur reading this and thinking about ordering it I would say go for it. The pick up will be the day before thanksgiving so you gotta remember this is reheated. Don't let your chicken dry out and add some chicken stock to the pan before you reheat the chicken, it will absorb it and become very moist. They gave me a pumpkin pie, admittedly I ate a slice for breakfast today and let me tell you, that absolutely smacks with a piping hot cup of coffee. I'll probably order again next year depending on my guest size. This also made my dogs drool a lot on the car ride home so leave them at home if ur picking up. Thanks chook! read more

Winner winner chicken dinner! This place can declare victory over rotisserie chicken. Anyone wondering what "Chook" means? Well surprise...it's Aussie slang for a chicken. My family loves this place, their food is just so comforting. The chicken by itself has a great flavor but hands down we all love to tear into that bird with a side of sauce. We've tried both the piri-piri and macha because we like it spicy and both are solid. I think I may enjoy the sides even more than the chicken, their mash potatoes and gravy, seasoned corn on the cob, booyah stew are all really great. If I had to go negative, I'd say they need to find a bigger vessel for their gravy because you need a lot more than a tablespoon or two for their no doubt butter laden mash. However, when asked service was quick to provide an additional dollop of gravy. Their location on Pearl is not very big so during peak eating times you need to wait for a table but that said they seem to do a lot of take out business. Bonus that they have a kid's corner with a magnetic chalk wall, games, books, small chairs and a table. And more good news for folks living in the Hale neighborhood, looks like Chook is opening up a second location on 8th Avenue as signage is up. read more

Best. Chicken. Hands. Down. It's juicy, flavorful, and falls right off the bind. And the side dishes and salads are all amazing, too! We live in Castle Rock, but we have worked Chook into our favorite Denver restaurant rotation. We've been there no less than five times now (plus we have done take out from them several times as well--it always travels really well and is still delicious after a 30+ minute car ride), and my husband and I like to split a quarter white with the chimichurri sauce, a small order of potato wedges with piri-piri sauce for dipping, and panzanella salad. The panzanella salad *might* be a summer-only side dish, but it is to absolutely die for with a flavorful, tangy dressing and juicy heirloom tomatoes, and I hope they add it permanently to their line up and/or bring it back seasonally. It is the bomb. The macaroni and cheese, charred mixed veggies, and pacific Hawaiian rolls are all seriously great too--and they are all things we get if we are dining there with a larger group. Also, if we are dining in, we get a round of their margaritas as well--they are deceptively small but maybe our favorite marg in all of Denver? You'll have a hard time sticking to just one. We love everything about this place. My husband is more of a steak and burgers guy, but even he loves Chook. His proclamation of "I could sit there all day and eat their food and drink those margaritas" after eating there last night is what drove me to write this review. The only thing to keep in mind is that it is a very small location with not much seating and it gets packed quickly during lunch and dinner--so we just go there during their off times (think 2pm to 5pm on the weekends) and it's no problem. Food always comes out fast and delicious, and the service is always top notch. Can't wait for the Hale neighborhood location to open! read more

Last weekend we ordered takeout from Chook Chicken (Pearl St. location). Think: environmentally-conscience bourgeois 'Boston Market' roasted chicken. Technically it is charcoal-cooked chook (Australian for chicken). There is another location at 8th/Birch near Rose Medical Center and soon to be one at the Stanley Marketplace in Aurora. The developers founded big names in Denver such as Snooze Eatery, Fruition and Mercantile. We ordered the whole-chicken meal "Chook for Four" for $50. It came with three sides, one large salad and two dipping sauces. Yes, it would have fed four people, but we had nice leftovers. For sides, we chose the smashed cucumbers (light cucumber and red onion salad), Chook wedges (great fried potato fingers), and the mac & cheese (honestly pretty bland shells and cheese). The large cobb salad had boiled eggs and blue cheese and came with two dressings on the side (raspberry vinaigrette and a garlic cream.) The dipping sauces we chose were the Big A's BBQ (excellent home-made tangy flavor) and mum's gravy (which was unfortunately disappointingly tasteless). The chicken was exceptionally moist, and the flavor had a little heat that went all the way through the meat. We suspect that they brined the chicken. The company cares a great deal about sustainability. You can tell this from the freshness of their ingredients and every single item of the packaging was compostable! The location on Pearl has a nice parking lot in the back. If you call the restaurant when you arrive, they will bring the food out to you. read more

Alright, I'm vegetarian, so I don't often go to chicken joints, but when I heard about Chook's ethical practices and devotion to sustainability PLUS their bomb veg sides, I had to try it for myself. It's a cute place on South Pearl's northern end. It was packed when I went in. The servers were all nice and accommodating. They have a charity program running always, which I liked a lot. I sat at the community table and unlike other chicken places that fry, the fire from the rotisserie smelled nice. I tried all of the vegetarian-friendly sides. My standouts: the delicata squash, carrot salad, and mixed vegetable. I'm mostly impressed by their dedication to sustainability. Read up on it or, better yet, pay them a visit and ask. We need more ethical restaurants! read more

What type of oil is used to cook the chicken? I'm not doing vegetable oils of any kind.
It's rotisserie chicken, so odds are highly in your favor that they don't use veggie oil, if they use oil at all, and they probably use olive if oil is used. Either way, live a little. It's rotisserie, so no matter what, it's relatively good for…
