Peach’s Hot Chicken

Outstanding fried chicken - I visited Peach's again after a long time. I forgot how good it was!nnThe chicken was moist while the battery was crispy and packed with punchy flavour.nnI had the waffles which were super fluffy! nnThe burger was juicy and hits the spot.nnTheir 1L size drinks are also super handy especially if you're in a group.nnThe peanut butter mousse pie is divine honestly.

Southern Comfort Done Right!nnPeach’s Hot Chicken in Panmure is hands down the best southern-style chicken joint I’ve come across in Auckland. Everything you’d expect from true southern comfort food is served up here – bold, authentic flavours, crispy fried goodness, and that satisfying kick that keeps you coming back.nnThe chicken? Absolutely bomb. Juicy on the inside, perfectly crunchy on the outside, and seasoned to perfection. You can tell they know their way around southern spices.nnThe only downside? The lemonade didn’t quite hit the mark – a bit of a letdown. But honestly, when the food is this good, it’s easy to overlook.nnIf you’re craving real-deal southern chicken, this is the place to be. I’ll be back for sure!

The home of amazingly made chicken, where medium will knock your socks off.nnGot the big dark because thigh is OP and breast meat is mid.nnHighly recommended, but wait times on Friday and Saturday may be up to 15 mins.

This burger doesn’t just look good—it delicious. The chicken is super crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packs a flavorful punch. The pickles add that perfect tangy crunch that cuts through the richness of the chicken.

We came on a Saturday evening around 6.30ish and the place was buzzing. There was a short queue out the door, all indoor tables were occupied and most of the outdoor too. As we walked in... we were greeted by Alex who was friendly and welcoming and was advised of a 15-20 minute wait to be seated inside or we could be seated straight away for outdoors. We chose to dine indoors and Alex offered for us to wait by the bar. We bought a couple of drinks and waited. During our wait, Alex who we later came to discover to be the owner came up to us a couple of times to keep us updated with our wait time. We were then seated within 10 minutes. We ordered a couple of more drinks, the big dark which came with fries, the chicken and biscuit, the pork gravy and the pimento mac and cheese. Every dish we ordered was an absolute hit! Absolutely loved the chicken and biscuit and the pimento mac and cheese! The flavours were so morish and flavorsome. Beverage wise, the behemoth which was recommended by our waitress was a nice drop especially for someone like myself who is not usually a lager drinker. During our meal, both Alex and our waitress came over to check on how we were finding our meal and were pro active in ensuring we were well looked after and our table was cleared of empty glasses, plates etc. I highly recommend coming here if you are a fried chicken lover! The vibe, the service and the food is 10/10! We have now added this to our go-to chicken restaurant! Thanks Alex and peach's team!
