“ Daves Hot Chicken was spectacular every bite of food was bursting with flavor, even down to their pickles! If you love hot chicken and no fast food restaurant can satisfy that want, come here. On the spice level, I had hot, but you could say Its hot enough to make you jump! For that matter, even the splendid amount of chicken they give you could make you jump. That, the taste, and the quality makes the price worth it. The service was awesome, and the workers were super kind. This is my new favorite fast food restaurant, and it is a superior rival to Raising Canes. Come and see for yourself. ”
“ I dont review often unless Im particularly impressed by a meal, and honestly cannot recommend Daves enough. I was a die hard Music City Hot Chicken fan for years, but Daves opened up just a little while back and I havent been anywhere else since. The food is always great, I personally find the medium spice rub to be a great balance between flavor and kick. The quality is consistent, and always top notch. While I havent met everyone here, Kenzie and Sam have stood out and remember me when I come in. They are always incredibly friendly, and give me extra sauce without even a second thought! Other places require extra payment for sauce, sorry music city, etc.... Whoever hired them made a phenomenal decision, because they are WONDERFUL. Again, I cant recommend the food enough, if you havent been to Daves the food is a MUST TRY in Fort Collins, a west coast staple that we are lucky to have here in Fort Collins. If you get Kenzie or Sam, youre guaranteed a quality meal delivered promptly and consistently. ”
“ I had the most incredible first time experience at this Daves Hot Chicken. Cole was our cashier and was the sweetest person ever. Was even patient with explaining the menu items to help us choose. We ended up getting 2 hot chicken sliders that tasted amazing.there sauce makes a really great combo with the fries and sliders. Was very pleased with our experience. ”
“ this place is absolutely AMAZING!! i have never been to a daves and the staff is so sweet and very generous. they told me the best things to get and definitely did not disappoint! McKenzie is the sweetest worker and even gave us a free milkshake, but truly all the staff are great. This location will definitely have us coming back again! ”
“ Ive been to other Daves Hot chicken restaurants in the Denver area and this by far was the best experience at this location. The staff were very friendly and helpful with suggesting different combinations that I wouldnt have thought of myself. The girl running the register had great energy and was very pleasant. I believe her name was Sam. I ordered a shake with my meal and she suggested the Strawberry Cinnamon Toast Crunch which I thought would be a little risky but ended up being something I will try again next time I come in. The restaurant was really clean and had pleasant music playing that wasnt too loud which provided for a nice ambiance. I really liked there was a bar you could sit at as well. I hadnt seen that in other locations. The food was good quality and fresh. They also were prompt in getting the food out. All of the workers seemed to smile a lot which as a restaurant owner myself, goes a long ways with me. Id highly recommend this location. Theres detail and theyre open late which is a plus given theres not a lot of places to eat late at night in Fort Collins. ”
“ If you havent experienced Daves Hot Chicken yet, you are seriously missing out! I recently had the pleasure of visiting this gem, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of extraordinary. First off, I ordered the cauliflower slider, and I can confidently say it was the best thing Ive ever tasted in my life! The cauliflower was perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. Each bite was bursting with flavor, making it a delightful experience that Ill never forget. Its a dish that redefines what a slider can be! The atmosphere at Daves is equally impressive. The restaurant was sparkling clean, showcasing a commitment to hygiene that is often hard to find. It was clear that the staff takes pride in maintaining a welcoming environment for their customers. Speaking of the staff, they were incredibly friendly and kind. From the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely welcomed. They took the time to explain the menu and make recommendations, adding a personal touch that made my visit even more enjoyable. In short, Daves Hot Chicken is a mustvisit for anyone who appreciates delicious food and exceptional service. Whether youre a fan of chicken or just looking for a fantastic meal, this place has something for everyone. I cant wait to return and try more from their menu! update Im not too sure if the cauliflower slider even has any chicken on it I know for sure their chicken is good but if I just ate a totally cauliflower sandwich with chicken batter it tasted better than any sandwich Ive ever had in my life ”
“ The staff at Daves Hot Chicken were so incredibly friendly and attentive. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Sam who worked the register was great at explaining the menu and helped us navigate the various spice levels. We also appreciated the quick service. ”
“ Great chicken sandwich, friendly staff, and great atmosphere. Wouldnt drive up into Fort Collins specifically for this, but it is a solid option instead of going into Old Town. Much more accessible than Canes up the road. ”
