40 Best Chicken Restaurants near Burnaby

“** Update in Feb 2026, still the best korean chicken place in the Lower Mainland. Can't believe how this place has no line up. May be due to its location? ** Visited this place a few times. I tried most of Korean chicken joints in the Lower Mainland, and I have to say this one is by far the best. Light crispy batter and juicy chicken. Portion size is great, the flavour is fantastic, cooked to perfection. Their burgers are (very classic) also really good with great tasting patties and soft buns. I am sad. This place is not very close to my home but it's probably a good thing as I would come too often. If you want the best Korean chicken, try this place. ** update April 20, 22: they are open again! **“

“Mild flame grilled chicken supremo with mild peri peri sauce“

“This is one of the most friendliest places i've ever been to if I ask for extra fries, they give it to me the food is always amazing.They're so friendly.The service is unbelievable.All the staff here are amazing.I recommend this place highly over any other place“

“Went here for Valentine’s Day to get a quick lunch! Staff was relatively fast, and kind, and was happy that they gave us a complimentary tart for Valentine’s day, a lot of families and friends so I am glad they made it a bit special. Would go here again over say the food court one in metrotown!“

“The best chicken wings ever!“

“It’s a food court Nandos so atmosphere is not what I was there for! I have tried most of the Nandos. We are from South Africa where Nandos originated and this is by far the best franchise within Vancouver, had the whole chicken (lemon and herb) with sides. Chicken was grilled to perfection, sides were equally amazing, thanks guys keep up the good work!“

“Pretty consistent!!!
I’ve ordered from this location about 20 times now (morning, afternoon and night). I have not really been disappointed.
Sometimes they’d give you regular instead of spicy in hope that we wouldn’t notice, we do notice it!!!!! 😂🤷🏻‍♀️And I don’t really mind it, but just let me know lol

The only thing that really makes me sad is that they’ve replaced their signature crinkle fries with Costco fries lol 🥲😭

Please bring back the crinkle fries!!!!! 😭😭😭“

“Although... I just do not understand new menue, Church's is consistent. I used to enjoy few peaces of legs and thighs with fries, and they are still able to produce it, so no real complains.. Hope they stay original, as it seams bit dumb to me to invent new fried chicken..
After few years now... I do not understand the pace of dough that they make you buy in the combo. Its just not very tasty, its actually terible it tastes like glue. I always throw it away. It would be better to get more fries.“

“Nice ambience, good service. Enjoyed the chicken wrap“

“Amazing fresh chicken! Fantastic staff - very efficient & friendly! Yummmmmmmm“

“Had a great experience with fast service for a fast casual dinning. Food was really tasty. Love the mild Peri sauce and the Prego sauce!!“

“Just tried this place tonight at Fridays on Front St in New Westminster. I had the chicken sandwich with cheese and egg and it was delicious! Best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had !!! Can’t wait to go back :)“

“Great customer service 👍 healthy food“

“It is much better than Nandos. Very moist chicken. They have selection of 7 flavors from mild to very hot etc. If you like Nandos give Peri Peri Shake a try you will love it“

“I was passing Vancouver in transit on 20th July ,stayed overnight and went to the restaurant for having and taking away some chicken pieces for Saint John. NB as there was no P in Saint John. The girl at the counter was so courteous and very customer friendly .The service was very fast. The chicken was very tasty and crispy and prefect .I enjoyed very much and brought pieces to Saint John for my family.All were happy to eat them. I thank the whole team and wish you prosper .“

“Great😘My kids loves Barcelos chicken🥰“

“Such a great experience!! The place was super clean, the staff were really kind and welcoming, and my chicken came out super fast and tasted amazing. Everything was fresh and on point. Definitely coming back and I 100% recommend this location!“

“delicious chicken. however- how are you running out of chicken? two different times we have called in the last two weeks for chicken and you've been out. I can't even understand how this is happening. not impressed“

“Good service the foods are delicious“

“Best fried chicken in town. Must try the spicy big mary sandwich.“

“Delicious, juicy and great value. Far exceeded my expectations.“

“Best chicken in whole vancover and staff is very humble and polite specially(Aman)thanks hi🖐“

“If you're craving bold flavor and perfectly grilled chicken, Nando's is THE place to go! Their Peri-Peri is absolutely superb/ smokey, tangy, spicy, and incredibly addictive. It's the kind of flavor that hits you in the best way and keeps you coming back for more.

The chicken is always juicy and cooked just right, with that signature flame-grilled taste you can't replicate at home. And sauces? Nect level. Whether you like it mild or extra hot, there's a heat level for everyone- but fair warning: once you taste it, there's no going back!

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff are friendly and efficient. Every visit feels worth it. Honestly, Nando's Peri-Peri is something no one can resist!

Highly recommended- 10/10!🔥🍗“

“Amazing experience at Hi Five Chicken! The customer service was top-notch — staff were friendly, welcoming, and quick to help. The food was super fresh, hot, and full of flavor. You can really tell they care about quality and customer satisfaction. Definitely one of the best spots for fresh chicken. Highly recommend and will be coming back again!“

“Went there with family and had an amazing experience. The food was really delicious and staff is amazing too. They have many options for vegetarian as well as for allergies. The lunch specials deals are pocket friendly to try.
It is place where i always wants to go now.
Will definitely recommend.“

“Always fresh, minus the fries. I have always gotten cold limp fries the six times I've gone. Super busy on Saturday, order through the app, expect to wait even if it says it's ready. Cashier's are always super nice even when they're flooded.

Reminder: Order with the app and give it an extra 10 minutes from the time it says it will be ready. Especially on the weekend at dinner time.“

“Shout our to whoever was working tonight. They had a 2 for one on Uber eats which included a side. They didn't list mashed potatoes as an option. In the notes I asked for mashed potatoes if possible. They gave me a call, not to say they couldn't, but to make sure I wanted mashed for both.

I'm used to these requests being ignored. They rock for going above and beyond. I hope the owner sees this and the employee gets the recognition they deserve.“

“Best butter chicken in town! Always fresh.“

“I highly recommend their chicken marinades. Nice variety, very flavourful and very fresh. The chicken always cooks wonderfully. The gentlemen there are always attentive and kind to me, as well.

Most recently during a visit, there was a miscommunication (which was my fault) asking about the breasts being sliced to allow the marinade to fully envelope the chicken (which they do to all the chicken breasts) and the man assisting me thought I wanted the chicken breast further sliced into smaller pieces. He left momentarily and went to do this for me, but then when I discovered what happened, they allowed me to take the other intact breasts and said they will find a use for the other chicken that was cut. A very kind gesture to accommodate my preference even though it was my fault. They’ve earned a loyal patron in me. Thanks again!“

“Loved their fried chicken and gravy! The staff member who helped me was awesome at suggesting the best combo deal.. I did feel the premises could have been maintained better as my table was sticky and the HVAC tubes above me in the ceiling dripped water every now and then.“

“This is the best fried chicken I’ve had besides home made. Beats the pants off Church’s, Popeye’s and KFC You won’t regret it“

“Great chicken and gravy. I swear the same guy with the glasses and mullet has been working here every day for EVER. 10/10“

“I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Nando's! From the second we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and seated immediately. The atmosphere was vibrant, clean, and had such a great energy.
Our server Raman incredibly attentive, friendly. The food arrived hot and fresh in record time. The chicken was juicy and perfectly charred It’s rare to find a place that balances speed with such high-quality service, but this location nailed it. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit!“

“The experience at Nando’s was excellent from start to finish. The flame-grilled chicken was outstanding juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. You can really taste the quality and the care that goes into the preparation.
The range of sauces is a big highlight. There’s something for every preference, from mild to very spicy, and each one complements the chicken without overpowering it. The sides were fresh, well prepared, and generously portioned.
The restaurant has a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere, making it a great place to enjoy a relaxed meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and efficient, which made the overall experience even better.
Overall, Nando’s delivers consistently great food, excellent flavor, and strong customer service. It’s definitely a place I look forward to visiting again.“

“It was a first for me to try the fried chicken here. May be it’s just me but I didn’t like it much. Nothing wrong with the quality. The chicken was fresh and tender and very well prepared. The dip is awesome. But, when asked, I had clearly asked the spicy one. Still I got the one with zero spice level. But it’s not a big deal. The service was great and the staff was doing their job at their best. If you are a fried chicken lover, this is the place to be.“

“Friendly and speedy service, Halal fast food eatery“

“The customer service experience was outstanding. We met Rishta, and she truly made our day with her attentive and warm service. No other branch has ever felt this personal. We’ll definitely keep coming back again and again because of her.“

“This is one of the few remaining Church's location (if not the only location) that's still has a good standards with respect to the quality of their fried chicken. They are relatively consistent. Glad to see that the oil used to deep fry their chicken is consistently renewed.“

“A staff charged extra $2 for mixing Spicy and Regular chickens for the 3 piece combo.

But a week later, a different staff didn't charge for the mixed chickens. When I asked what is the store policy, they said mixing is free.

Why would a staff charge me extra $2 when they can't pocket the money? Or.... they CAN pocket?

I know punjabi fast food workers dont get much love on the internet. But this location the staffs are alright. The glasses lady who seems to be the supervisor/leader is professional.“
