History[edit | edit source]

Cluck-U Chicken was established by a college student who wanted to create a unique dining experience centered around chicken wings. The first restaurant opened near the Rutgers University campus, catering primarily to students and local residents. The brand quickly gained popularity due to its flavorful sauces and late-night hours.

The menu at Cluck-U Chicken features a wide range of chicken-based dishes, including wings, chicken tenders, sandwiches, and wraps. The restaurant is particularly famous for its "911" sauce, which is known for its extreme spiciness. Customers can choose from a variety of heat levels, ranging from mild to "thermo-nuclear."

Signature Dishes[edit | edit source]
