Royals Hot Chicken was founded in Louisville in 2015 by Ryan Rodgers on East Market Street, serving Nashville-style pressure-fried chicken in the NuLu neighborhood. The restaurant pairs its heat-scaled fried chicken with scratch-made sides, house sauces, fried pies, milkshakes, and 24 draft beers, establishing itself as a Louisville hot chicken staple.
Nashville hot chicken done right in Louisville. the tenders at medium heat are my go-to. pair with the banana pudding
Royals Hot Chicken brought Nashville-style heat to Louisville. The medium is plenty hot for most people. Crispy skin, juicy meat, pickles on white bread. Simple and devastating.
Royals changed Louisville's fried chicken game. the Royal heat level is no joke
