As we embark on this new chapter with Craveworthy Brands, we're bringing back some beloved traditions that made Hot Chicken Takeover an Ohio staple. CEO Gregg Majewski, recently shared our commitment to honoring HCT's original spirit with 614 Media Group: "I'm bringing all of that back." We're returning to the roots established by Founder Joe DeLoss, who envisioned a place with exceptional food and a touch of Southern hospitality. Alongside the free tea and ranch, you can enjoy $5.00 OG Chicken Thigh Sandwiches all of July, and expect new menu options coming soon! #HotChickenTakeover #Hotchicken #Chickenconcept #Free #Chicken #Columbusfood #Foodnews #Foodies #Ohiofood #Ohiorestaurants #Ohionews
About us
Hot Chicken Takeover (HCT) is a community-focused restaurant serving juicy, perfectly-fried Nashville Hot Chicken to Central Ohio residents. Founded in 2014, HCT attracts an eclectic mix of customers eager to gather around long communal tables and sip of homemade iced tea, making the Hot Chicken Takeover experience feel more like a backyard block party than a restaurant. HCT is focused on creating impact in the communities it serves through its approach as a Fair Chance Employer. By infusing the company culture with ownership and pride, HCT team members feed a lively customer experience. As a result, Hot Chicken Takeover has grown to become a beloved Columbus brand in Central Ohio and beyond.
