What is Krispy Krunchy Chicken?

Founded in 1989 in Lafayette, Louisiana, Krispy Krunchy Chicken is a fast-food franchise that specializes in Cajun-style fried chicken. The brand has rapidly expanded across the United States, with over 2,800 retail locations in 47 states. Unlike traditional fast-food chains, Krispy Krunchy Chicken often operates within existing convenience stores or gas stations, offering a unique and convenient dining option.

The chain's signature offering is its crispy, flavorful chicken, marinated in a proprietary blend of Cajun seasonings. Customers can also choose from a variety of Southern-inspired sides, including biscuits (honey & blueberry), jambalaya, red beans and rice, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, potato wedges, and fries. Additionally, the menu features hand-breaded chicken, wings, tenders, chicken sandwiches, honey butter shrimp, and a selection of meal options.

A unique aspect of Krispy Krunchy Chicken's business model is that operators of its locations do not pay franchise or royalty fees. Instead, operators pay the company to distribute inventory, equipment, and graphics to their stores, as reported by USA Today and KLFY.

Currently, Krispy Krunchy Chicken in Bellingham offers delivery through UberEats, with plans to expand to DoorDash in the near future, according to owner Laddy P.

With its convenient location, diverse menu, and strong community engagement, Krispy Krunchy Chicken is quickly becoming a popular spot for Bellingham residents and people passing through seeking a quick and convenient meal.
