Nene Chicken Davie (the brand’s second Vancouver location) will be opening on Friday, September 24. Located at 1231 Davie St, the restaurant is open for dine-in and takeout from 11:30 AM – 10:00 PM.
Founded in 1999, Nene Chicken is a South Korean Fried Chicken brand that has over 900 locations over the world.
“Nene” means “Yes Yes” in Korean. It’s an expression used when indicating enthusiasm and willingness to be helpful and friendly.
Nene Chicken Davie Menu
Nene Chicken Davie’s menu is the same as the one on Kingsway.
For Chicken, you choose from Bone (16 pieces, half and half, or 8 pieces) or Boneless (800 grams, half and half, or 400 grams) in these possible flavours: Original, Spicy, Soy Garlic, Snowing Cheese, Snowing Chilli or Hot Bling. They also have a Green Onion Chicken option.
Unique to Nene Chicken Vancouver compared to their sister locations globally is a lineup of Chicken Burgers which are priced $8 – $9. Make it a combo for $3.50.
Options include:
- “YES” Burger: Crispy Chicken Burger with NeNe’s secret creamy sauce, tomato, onion, pickle, lettuce
- Hot-Bling Burger: Crispy Chicken Burger with Spicy Chilli sauce, tomato, onion, pickle, lettuce
- Hawaiian-Terri Burger: Crispy Chicken Burger with special bbq sauce, tomato, onion, pickle, lettuce, pineapple
- Twin Cheese Burger: Crispy Chicken Burger with slices of cheddar cheese, tomato, onion, pickle, lettuce
Dine-in or Take-out
Nene Chicken Davie has some seating areas inside where you can enjoy your meal. This differs from their Kingsway location which is offering takeout only. They are planning on a patio in the future.
Nene Chicken also has their own branded takeout box which is shaped like a square pizza box but compartmentalized on the inside for the chicken, sides, and drink. They even offer a moist towel and finger gloves so that you can handle the chicken.
My favourite is their Original Boneless Chicken and their Hawaiian-Terri Burger was pretty good too.
