Super nice, staff so friendly and the food, omg the food, on level with the authentic korean chicken spots in wellington and auckland but here in the bay!

Succulent juicy chicken but so crispy on the outside, the honey butter sauce is to die for and the jalapeño chicken is out the gate!

Corn bites with the honey butter should be illegal, sweet and crispy everything so fresh.

Do us a favor and come eat! We need to support great places like this in the bay!

Absolute must try in Hastings! First time at Cranky Chicken, this is the best Korean chicken I have ever had. Juicy chicken, crispy coating, AMAZING flavor and generous portions. 100% coming back for more. Great vibe inside, beautiful spot for lunch. The honey butter corn bites are legendary!! Can't wait to try everything on their menu

I really enjoy Korean food, and this place makes the experience even better. The ambiance is cozy and relaxing, with such a calm and quiet atmosphere that you can truly savor your meal in peace. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy good food while unwinding.

While I sat down for lunch, I noticed that a decent number of people came in and had to feel for the 2 workers trying to fill the orders as fast as they could, must be understaffed but I got my food within a decent time.

- Honey butter chicken 8.4/10
It tasted slightly like butterscotch, which was quite nice. The other flavors were available, but this was a new one for me. Chicken fried well and had a bit of seasoning on top. Food was prepared very well.

Very clean place and workers did a great job.
