Columbus, OH— Hot Chicken Takeover will reopen their Crocker Park restaurant location with an enhanced menu experience and two brand new chicken cuts next Wednesday, June 17.
“While our restaurants were temporarily closed, we took advantage of the down time to reevaluate how our team can better serve our community of customers,” shares Joe DeLoss, Founder of Hot Chicken Takeover. “We’ve restructured our menu to give our customers more choice and flexibility in spending— something that feels very relevant to many of us right now.”
HCT’s refreshed menu will offer their classic sides— Ma’s Mac, Ma’s Slaw and Baked Beans— a la carte, allowing guests to order their ideal meal. The improved menu experience can be viewed here.
Hot Chicken Takeover has also added a Thigh only meal and a Bone-in Breast option, debuting at Crocker Park for the first time. Both chicken cuts are available in any of HCT’s Nashville-style heat levels.
Their reopening will also bring changes to how they serve vegan menu options. HCT’s house seitan— ‘Not Chicken’ and ‘Not Chicken Sandwich’, added to the menu last September— will now only be available on Mondays.
“We’ve been working hard to identify a solution that enables us to better serve our vegan community,” shares DeLoss. “Serving our Not Chicken one day a week will allow us to prepare each order in separate oil, eliminating shared fryers and cross contamination.”
The HCT team plans to take a cautious approach to operations after closing mid-pandemic on March 20. Starting Wednesday, Hot Chicken Takeover will reopen their patio, operate carryout and curbside pick-up, encouraging guests to place orders ahead online.

Hot Chicken Takeover’s Crocker Park restaurant will reopen at regular business hours, serving from 11a-9p, seven days a week. To learn more and place your order, visit hotchickentakeover.com.
