Honestly the best spot in Covington. Not only is the food good, but they treat you like a person and with kindness, and accommodate you no matter the circumstance. Ben specifically was kind and thoughtful and management was beyond great, even extending accommodations when they didn't have to while their system is down. They've got a loyal customer outta me. And for the restaurant reading this, thank you and god bless each of you. read more

Kenya was the best, gave me kindness, clarity, and understanding of what it takes to be a young worker in these fields. :)

Ok so hear me out the food was good and i will give the food a 5/10 cause it was definitely different but. . . I'm not sure what went wrong after eating the food me an my bf had very bad stomach pains and couldn't stop going to the bathroom. We had the Mac and cheese loaded fries with Dave's hot chicken Dave's sauce. We all ate the same thing an this was my 1st time eating it my bf had it before but he had a chicken sandwich which he said was delicious so we gave something else on the menu a chance . I kinda wanna to give them another chance but im a first impression kinda person. The Mac and cheese 3/10 Fries 5/10 Chicken 7/10 tender a juice but was a little stingy with the portion looked like 2 tenders cut up into pieces. Ice cream which we had to eat a day later due to stomach pain from the food was ok a 5/10 we had the fruity pepples a vanilla ice cream and strawberry and fruity peoples ice cream. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken Located at 1447 Hwy 138 SE Conyers, GA 30012 Health Score 82 = B on 10/1/25 We tried the Dave's Mini Sliders w/ Fries and Dave's Tenders with fries. The food was very delicious. If spicy food is your thing then this is the spot for you. The food is really spicy but goooooood.... The customer service was great and prompt. We didn't wait for our order very long 1960's R&B Music Pumping through the speakers giving you that deep down soul vibe. I'd definitely recommend Dave's Hot Chicken for that spicy flavor in your life. It was the mini sliders with coleslaw for me. Mouthwatering. read more

My son wanted to try this because he is a chicken tender connoisseur. Be prepared to wait, this is not fast food and each time we have gone there has been a line both inside and in the drive thru. The loaded fries are a 8.5/10 the milkshake I would skip as mine was watery so I give that a 2/10. We will go back because each time we say our spice level wasn't that hot. I have only made it up to Mild. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Small Top Loaded Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

We did drive through service. Had about an average wait time. Person taking our order was pleasant and skilled at working the drive through. Explained the menu and took our order correctly the first time. Building was clean and well presented on the outside. We ordered the Sliders with fries and the slider had kale salad and pickles. The bun was good and warm. The chicken strip on the slider was more crust than chicken. I would say please pay more attention to the star of the show, the "CHICKEN". Dave's hot CHICKEN. read more

As a L.A. resident I wasn't new to Dave's. I was visiting family in Conyers recently and after a late night of drinking I opted to pick up some Dave's since it was otw home. First things first if you're coming by late I recommend you Uber eats because they get busy. After about a 10 min wait my food finally came out. I got a 2 sandwich combo. The food was fresh and came out piping hot. The chicken itself had great flavor and the knockoff Zaxbys sauce hits. I picked up my food to go but the inside of the restaurant looked spacious and vibrant, I appreciate a good decor. Im kinda over the hot chicken craze but this is actually a good fast food alternative for burgers. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Slaw asl - Chicken Shop Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

Let's start with the downside, so we can get that out of the way. The biggest issue with this location is the drive-through. It's often wrapped around the entire building, and at times, it blocks several parking spaces, making it harder for additional customers to park and enter the restaurant. If they could find a better way to manage or redesign the drive-through, it would improve the overall experience and encourage more people to come inside instead of being forced to use the drive-through. Now, with that said, let's talk about what makes Dave's Hot Chicken exceptional. This is one of the best hot chicken chains in the United States. The restaurant is always clean, even though it's consistently packed. I've been to this location multiple times. Sometimes, it was so crowded that I left without ordering, but honestly, that's not necessarily a bad thing--it just shows how much people love this place. Other times, I've come alone or with my partner, and the food has always been fantastic. I've tried hot chicken in other states, and while it's good elsewhere, Dave's Hot Chicken stands out. The food here is amazing: always cooked perfectly with a great range of spice levels to suit different tastes. Personally, I wish they offered a few more side options, but what they do have is consistently excellent. My go-to order is the chicken tenders with cheese fries, and occasionally I'll get the sliders. The coleslaw on the sliders is a perfect complement to the flavors. If you're planning to visit, here's my advice: if you have kids, consider getting your order to go. If you're alone or have time to spare, it's worth the wait--though I recommend avoiding the drive-through if possible. Park and head inside, assuming you can find a spot. Overall, this location has its challenges with crowding and parking, but the quality of the food more than makes up for it. If you've never tried Dave's Hot Chicken--whether it's at this location or another--you absolutely should. The food is worth the wait and delivers every time. read more

The price for what you get is insane. $14.00 for 2 chicken tenders, 2 slices of old bread and some warm fries. Then I asked for the mildest of the mild but the spice was too intense. I was in a rush and didn't have time to take it back so I gave the food away. The inside looks like it belongs in a throwback movie. It definitely needs to be cleaned up. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

It's been almost a year Dave's, and now you're in Atlanta ! One of my favorites from LA is hereeee!! We stopped by here on the way to Covington - about an hour drive for us. It was definitely busyyy, but we were there during peak lunch time. Both the drive through and inside were very busy, but we did find a table inside and chose to dine in. The wait was pretty long, but definitely worth it. We got a light mild and medium- they didn't feel spicy at first but definitely have a kick to it. I might be brave enough to try a hot. Flavors were soooo good and their sauce is amazing. Of course it's halal :) It's a bit of a drive but hope to be back soon!! read more

Let's start with the location, the parking is limited. Since it's the first location in GA and Halal, it stays fairly busy. If you end up going during a busy hour you might not find parking. They do have a drive thru. The place itself since very busy seems hard to be kept clean. The food itself was a solid 7/10. The portion was pretty good. The hot sliders were cold upon getting it which was disappointing. The fries were a little crispy. The Dave's sauce is just sweet Chick-fil-A sauce. They do not have any other condiments besides honey, Dave's sauce, and ketchup. The Mac & cheese was okay, nothing exceptional. Overall, a pretty good spot to have in town especially for those that want a little kick with their chicken. Check them out on a slower day ofc for a better experience! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Hot Box - Sliders - Chicken Shop Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

Me and my sister drove 40 minutes for this meal and it was well worth every minute no lie. This is the 1st location in Georgia and it's still fairly new so please keep that in mind when going to visit. There is a constant flow of people inside and drive through (even though that was super crazy) just be patient. Customer service was really good my server/cashier Corey was very helpful and thorough. I appreciate all his help! My food was delicious yes it was a little wait but it was worth it. My slider was so good and the sauce is amazing especially if you mix it with the honey. Tenders were really good too I wil try a hotter flavor next time. The slider was the deal breaker for me tho!! and the cheese fries were yummy, for this to be considered "fast food" I was very pleased! Can't wait to visit again. Nice lil scenery and I like the graffiti on the walls We ordered #4 1 slider + fries Chicken bites #3 1 tender, 1 sliders + fries (I added another tenders) 2 strawberry slushies....10/10 read more

Service: Keke the girl who took our order outside in the drive thru line was very patient, mannerable, informative, and had awesome customer service. The food: I got two # 3's and a # 1 My niece devoured her plate, my son said the red sauce/seasoning on the tender taste like Ramen noodle seasoning, and my opinion is this personally it looks very good, as far as taste goes it lacks flavor the fries were good and were seasoned but the tenders are just that. And we got medium and mild it was no type of kick to it spice or nothing. I'm going to say go try it for yourself it may be different for you and your taste buds. read more

Finally made it here to try, was not going to go when they first opened and the lines were super long. Chicken was good, not good enough to wait in a 30+ minutes but good enough to recommend and I will return. I do think they put way too many pickles on their items. I don't like pickles at all but my bf's sandwiches had pickles and even he said it was too much. The chicken itself was nice, crispy and juicy. The hot had only a slight kick but I wanted to ease my way into something hotter. I really like the mini sliders which apparently are new and are actually sliders. Not sure why they call a regularly sized sandwich a slider. Fries were also good. I love a crinkle fry. In all I would return but again only when they're not super busy and I will always order to go. read more

The food was awesome. Customer service was excellent. They were smiling and having an awesome time. I love seeing that when I come in, I well be bk. read more

TIP: Go inside instead of using the drive thru. The line to order inside seemed to go much faster than the drive thru line. Pack your patience! Please, pack your patience!! A friend and I decided to try this spot because the location had opened in Conyers. I knew Usher had opened a location here but I assumed it was in the Atlanta area so when I saw it was in Conyers, I had to try it. We got to the area and saw there was a line of cars down the block. We committed that if we got in line, we would stay in the line no matter how long it took. We got in the line at 4:44pm on Labor Day and got our order at 8:48pm. 4 hours!!! I have never sat that long for food before but so glad I had company and can say it was an experience. We had the Dave Chicken bites medium heat, a tender and slider hot, and fries and a drink. I wanted to order an Oreo top loaded shake but it was no longer available. I asked the worker at the window if it was like that everyday (long lines) and she said YES! I love spicy foods but the tender and slider was too hot for me. The chicken bites with medium heat were more tolerable for me and had a great flavor. The macaroni and cheese tasted like the macaroni and cheese from KFC or some other chicken fast food restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was great. Was it worth the four hour wait delicious? No, but I will definitely be back once the hype calms down more. read more

If you got it bad for Hot Chicken. R&B Superstar Usher is Co- owner of the first Dave's Hot Chicken in Conyers, GA With 8 more locations to come to the ATL area. Luckily, I was in the area so I decided to give them a try. The chicken slider was okay nothing special. The spice level was perfect I ordered mine hot it was just enough heat without it being too much. The wait time was 30 minutes and that was for the drive thru. The inside was busy as well. Customer service was friendly. I would definitely recommend if you're in the area, but I wouldn't drive out of my way to try it. read more

This was our 1st time coming to Dave's Hot Chicken. The service was excellent and efficient! and the food was AMAZING!!!

I've ordered through DoorDash while at work and hubby and daughter have brought home for me, and every time was a hit. I saved the chicken & waffles for the next day twice and they reheated in the air fryer as if they were just ordered. I've never had fast food that reheated so well. Also the bread is always so soft and even though I love my food piping hot, I can eat Dave's lukewarm and still enjoy it. I've had the cauliflower bites, mini sliders, chicken & waffles and all were good enough to go back. Dave's my guilty pleasure! read more

Passed by this place one Saturday afternoon. The line was out the door so I wanted to see what the hype was all about. I waited over an hour for the food. I ordered the 2 tenders and fries plate but received one tender and a slider. The fries were hot and crispy! The best thing on the plate. I was not a fan of the chicken. The seasoning they used have a sweet taste and I don't like sweet chicken. I would not recommend this place. read more

Once the new restaurant hype has worn down, we decided to give Dave's Hot Chicken a go. The ordering was fairly easy and the customer service was amazing. The restaurants ambience is good as well. Now on to the chicken...lol. I had the mild Dave's bites and a strawberry lemonade. The Mrs' had the slider and tender combo, mild as well. The tenders were juicy and the seasoning on the bites, tender and slider was ok. Something ever comparable is Hattie B's Hot Chicken, which does it better than Dave's. For a quick bite to eat, it was reasonable and should fair well on the 138 corridor here in Conyers. If you want better tasting tenders Huey Magoo's is the best tenders bar none! Dave's is an ok spot the frozen drinks are the best tho!!! read more

The wait time here is very sorry. People have been here for an hour and still haven't received their order. They i have been opened since like yea. I feel they should have gotten way better at how fast peopled food is coming out. This is very sad an unacceptable honestly. read more

I tried it Hot. I liked it. It was a good heat and the fries were okay. The Slushee is like any other Slushee & good if you like those. I didn't try a milkshake or anything else. I enjoyed my meal. It's as good as Hattie B's is. The only difference is they offer strips instead of chicken. Instead of that good peach cobbler from Hattie B's. They have Sluhsee's. Hopefully this is the start of locations around GA. read more

Food was good but def not fast food. Wait time was a little ridiculous at over 30 min.

The food here is great: make no mistake. But the star of my drive-thru trip was definitely the customer service. The young lady who took my order was so pleasant, and she really cared about the work she was doing. I would drive out of my way to come back. P.S: I consider myself pretty spice tolerant, so I just went with hot. Do not be deceived! Hot is still very hot read more

Went to Dave's during their opening weekend. We waited like an hour for the food after ordering inside. The food is good we ordered the sliders, bites, Oreo milkshake and slushie. I ordered mild but I expected a little bit more spice. There was none. I plan to go back and try to go up on the spice level. Sliders were delicious they come with pickles, Dave sauce and you can add cheese. The combo adds slaw, fries and drink. My husband ordered the "blue" slushie. He said it just a slushie I got the Oreo top loaded milkshake. It's a Oreo top loaded milk shake, sweet custard like. Overall it was good, nothing special. I would come back when the wait isn't so long and I wanted something different. read more

After waiting for 35 minutes, I didn't enjoy it as I hoped I would. The flavor was confusing because I really did taste anything besides hot meat. It was a big slab of chicken on a bun that was ill-fitting to the sandwich. I had high expectations for this experience being my first for Dave's. Now, I have absolutely no expectations. I would like a refund and would gladly return these two meals if I could get that. read more

So I've been hearing about Dave's hot chicken and decided to give it a go. I ordered a two-piece chicken tender combo with macaroni instead of fries and a side of kale slaw. One tender. I ordered hot and the second I ordered extra hot. Both flavors were very good and I was able to manage the extra hot. This cambo cost $14. At first I was skeptical because of the price but realize that the tenders were a pretty decent size. I also ordered a frozen minute maid strawberry lemonade but instead I got a blue flavored slushie which was still good. Nonetheless. I ordered off of doordash so I didn't get to see the establishment but I believe it's in a food truck area within Conyers. Georgia not too far for me. The delivery was pretty quick and the food was fresh. I also enjoyed the kale salad. In the pic of the kale salad I added salt and cayenne pepper which is the seasonings that you see in the picture. However, it does not come with those seasonings. Next time I'm going to try their tender bites and a different sauce as well. Well. Other than that, the service was great and the food was great and I am overall satisfied. read more

I heard about the hype for this restaurant and couldn't wait to try it. Of course the line was wrapped around the building and then some, but I was determined to try the infamous hot chicken.

Everything was highly recommend. read more

Terrible service....

Welcome to the area!! Waited for the hype to die down a little to give this place a try. Walked in no line, but seating was full. The cashier was the worst! I said we should leave just because of her attitude but we didn't. Ordered 3 sliders, a tender and 2 orders of fries. $40 plus can't remember exact price but if you are looking for a cheap meal this is not your place. Waited 30 min or so and received warm chicken and fries, disappointing! I gave the cashier a layup! I said it's my first visit and she literally stared at me like and? Train your staff this is where you gain loyal customers. Now the food quality wasn't better than the service so I could have excused the young lady attitude if the food was awesome but not even close. I think they did a nice job converting the Krystal's, need to tighten up the cleaning, not easy I'm sure but possible. Might try again one day! read more
