After fueling St.Pete’s hot chicken addiction for about a year over on Central Ave, Nash’s Hot Chicken finally has a brick and mortar location at 905 Central Ave.

At first I was thinking about just keeping it simple, maybe get like 3 or 4 tenders, some fries and call it a day. But nope the guy had the register suggested one of the sandwiches all which come with fries.

I am a sucker for sweet and spicy so I went with the “Early Bird” two pieces of hot chicken with bacon, strawberry jam, and cream cheese, on a “Martian’s Potato Roll”. The chicken heat scale goes from 1 to 5 but I heard their are even spicer flavors if you ask. I went with 3, and even for a fan of some heat this one brought it to me. The sweetness from the strawberry jam was much needed.

They are also serving up Kool Aid and Sweet Tea to save your tongue from the hot chicken.Nash’s Hot Chicken is just what the 727 needed, a place that makes authentic hot chicken for the right price. I Can’t wait to go back and try one of the other sandwiches or get a bunch of tenders for game days.
