A US fast food chain is coming in hot… quite literally. Dave’s Hot Chicken is setting up shop in the UK and they’re bringing the spice.

The cult American brand, backed by Drake and Samuel L. Jackson, is set to open its very first UK restaurant in London’s Shaftesbury Avenue on December 7, and Metro can exclusively reveal what customers will see on the menu when it opens its doors. 

Dave’s is bringing a number of the US favourites over to the UK for its launch, with prices starting from £8.

Interestingly, there are just two main chicken items on the menu — tenders and sliders (sandwiches) — which the chain says are made using organic and halal certified British chicken.

To pair with your chicken, there will be a range of sides available including fries, pickles, and slaw, and you can also order combinations of these to make for a bigger meal, with four combo options to choose form.

Customers can also personalise their order by selecting a spice level for the dish, with six different levels to choose from: No Spice, Lite Mild, Mild, Medium, Hot, and Extra Hot.

Dave’s in the US also has a seventh spice level: The Reaper. This is so hot that anyone who dares to try it has to sign a waiver before they’re allowed to tuck into their food. Yes, really.

However, the chain hasn’t yet decided whether or not to bring the infamous challenge to the UK, after conducting a not-so successful taste test with five Brits that left some in tears and one running out of the room after just one bite.
