About Fried Hustle

Crispy buttermilk fried chicken, soft buns, and no coeliac panic—High Street gets fast comfort dialed right in. Every piece of fried bird is gluten-free, cooked in dedicated fryers without sacrificing crunch or clean bite. Coeliac diners and plant-based eaters share tables easily over sticky Korean nuggets, seasoned fries dipped in chipotle mayo, and rare-find vegan gravy slathered over potato gems.

  • Dedicated gluten-free chicken: All chicken tenders and pieces are coated in gluten-free batter and fried in separate fryers to keep diners with coeliac disease completely safe.
  • Comprehensive vegan options: A full plant-based lineup featuring vegan gravy, cauliflower bites, and savory burgers caters to mixed dietary crews.
  • Sauced nuggets and poutine: Trays come loaded with poutine, loaded fries, and bite-sized nuggets glazed in sticky Korean sauce, mayo, and sesame seeds.
