We build
chicken flavor
as a team

At RAYLEIGH'S, we treat chicken right: buttermilk brine, our spice blend, a double dredge, and a hot fry for that golden, crunchy crust. Every chicken batch is checked for texture, seasoning, and juiciness—because you come here for chicken first.

The crew runs like a well-oiled grill: cooks who love chicken and a line that packs your orders fast and clean. We care about local ingredients, warm service, and street-smart speed— that’s how RAYLEIGH'S chicken tastes like RAYLEIGH'S chicken.

What do we believe in as a chicken restaurant?

Great ingredients, honest flavor, and speed with no compromises. Chicken is fresh, oil is clean, sauces are ours—every single day.

Power of Flavor

Chicken first

We respect the ingredient: chilled chicken, tight temps, and a fresh bun—so the flavor hits from first bite to last.

Consistency

Dialed portions

Every chicken portion weighs what it should. We calibrate dredge, fry times, and salt—so your chicken is exactly right.

Guest Loyalty

Service with heart

Fast, friendly, focused. You’re here for chicken—we’ll make sure the wait is short and the vibe is warm.

Culture is everything

A word from our founder

“We’re building a place you come back to for that exact crunch. Chicken is simple, but nothing about it is small—farmers, brine, oil, and people who care. Welcome to RAYLEIGH'S.”
