The heart of Haven is their incredible spice blend. They don't just offer "hot"--they offer a…read moreprecision-engineered scale of heat that caters to everyone: * The Mild Side: If you're spice-averse, their "Country" (no heat) or "Mild" levels let the quality of the chicken shine through without the burn. * The Extreme: For the thrill-seekers, the "Haven" level is truly "out of this world." It's a deep, dark red dusting of spices that delivers an intense, lingering heat that will test even the most seasoned chili-heads. Whether you want a quick snack or a full feast, they've mastered every vessel for their crispy, juicy chicken: * The Sandwich: A massive, hefty breast on a potato bun that is widely considered one of the best in New England. * The Wraps & Tenders: Perfectly fried and consistently juicy. * The Sliders: The perfect "middle ground" if you want to mix and match different spice levels in one sitting. The "Must-Have" Sides A hot chicken joint is only as good as its sides, and Haven's are legendary: * Homemade Mac & Cheese: This isn't an afterthought. It's rich, creamy, and features a perfect cheese-to-pasta ratio that acts as the ultimate cooling agent for your palate. * Banana Pudding: This is the "secret weapon" of the menu. It's authentic, layered with fresh bananas and Nilla wafers, and topped with light whipped cream. Many regulars consider it a "side" rather than a dessert because it's the only thing that can truly put out the fire of the higher spice levels! Haven Hot Chicken is a masterclass in balance. Between the crunch of the breading, the customizable heat, and the soul-warming sides, it's a 10/10 experience for any fried chicken lover.

Been ordering from here since it opened. We would brag about it to people. Especially the size of…read morethe chicken on the sandwich and how crispy yet moist it was. Just ordered a chicken sandwich and the peice of chicken was too small for even the bun. Then one whole side of the chicken didnt have meat it was just breading. Ordered chicken wraps. Which normally include tenders. Each wrap had a cut peice of chicken all diffrent sizes and less then a quarter of breading left. Got delivery and the American cheese on the wrap was still cold like it came out of the fridge. Not one sign of any melt pattern. Then not 1 slice od cheese, not a half. Here we are again with a quarter amount. If it was a blind tasting I would have never guessed this was hot haven. Sad to see the sloppiness and lack a quality.

Unfamiliar with the menu and the kiosk mechanics we pressed buttons and made the best of it and the outcome was delicious. We are spicy food lovers but not familiar with the food here we didn't know what to expect. We chose MEDIUM spice just in case. We got the Daves trio, loaded burrito and a sandwich. All of it very tasty and juicy. Shout out to Felix our happy server, he was so nice to everyone and treated the kids with kindness. The restaurant itself is big and so colorful, nice atmosphere.

First time ever hearing about Dave's Hot Chicken. We happened to be in the area and someone in our…read moregroup raved about it. Got the #2. Comes with 2 chicken sandwiches and fries. Chicken was huge and super crispy. Fries are crinkle cut dusted with seasoning. Found that the fry amount was a bit smaller in portion size compared to the chicken. I mean maybe it's the actually serving size but let's be real. Fries are also a main course. So we ordered a large box of fries. The three of us (who didn't eat the #2 meal) killed the fries quickly. Mixed 2 packets of the Dave's sauce (it's like equivalent to 5 ketchup packets) with 2 ketchup packets . Mmm perfect. Saw a lot of Muslim patrons here. I was curious and looked it up. The chicken at Dave's is halal. KFC and chic fil a aren't. Looking at you KFC and chic fil a. More patrons would come to eat at your establishments if you served halal foods. Clearly from my ONE time eating at Dave's I could see that Muslim people like fried chicken too. DUH! Good job Dave's. I mean it didn't affect me in any way but it made me feel good that Dave's did something right. Will definitely be coming to Dave's Hot Chicken again!

To be honest,…read morethe last time my son got raising Cane's I tried some of it and the only thing that I liked was the sauce. I was willing to give it another shot though. The young boy working at the register did a great job as we all piled in and instantly formed a long line. The food came out in a short time and there was not much waiting. I got fries and Texas toast. It was better this time, but I do like my fries a little crispier. One of my favorite things about the restaurant is the decor and wall paintings. I loved everything from the colors to the moving disco balls on the ceiling. It's very appealing and eye catching. It was nice to see everybody spending time together outside of the court. Food has a special way of bringing people together!!

I was actually surprised by how empty/unbusy it was. This is one of their smaller locations, but that didn't bother me since I was grabbing my food to go. The tendies had a nice crispy breading and the chicken was juicy. I went with the Hot seasoning level and thought the heat was just right, definitely spicy, but still enjoyable and flavorful. I also got a banana pudding for my daughter since she loves it. Overall, I had a good experience and would definitely consider stopping back in the future.

Unfortunately, our experience with Haven Hot Chicken's food truck was extremely disappointing…read more I posted a solicitation on the CT Food Trucks website looking for food trucks for our Jack and Jill event on September 5. In the post, I clearly explained that we were expecting approximately 80-100 guests and that guests would be responsible for purchasing their own food. Amanda from Haven Hot Chicken's food truck reached out to me directly. She provided information about their food truck, confirmed that they were available on September 5, and specifically told me that we would not need to pay a deposit to reserve them. Based on that brief email conversation and a phone call, we considered the food truck booked for our event and planned accordingly. Unfortunately, Haven Hot Chicken never showed up to our event. We had no advance notice that they weren't coming, and we were left scrambling to deal with the situation while hosting our event. When I contacted the company during our event, I was told that Amanda no longer worked for the company, that she had apparently never entered our event into their booking system, and that there was no record of our conversation or the booking. While I understand that employees leave and that mistakes can happen, this was a significant failure in communication and event coordination. We had made plans based on the commitment we received from Haven Hot Chicken, and their failure to properly document the booking left us without the food service we had arranged for our guests. I would strongly recommend getting written confirmation directly from management and verifying that your event is actually on their schedule before relying on Haven Hot Chicken's food truck for an important event. We were extremely frustrated and disappointed by how this was handled, particularly because there was no communication from the company that they would not be attending.
