If you’ve been keeping tabs on Sydney’s hottest comfort food, you’ll be pleased to hear that Belles Hot Chicken is adding another sizzling location to its repertoire. Get ready to lick your fingers at the newest addition to the Belles fam in Circular Quay, opening in March.

Belles Hot Chicken has been winning hearts and stomachs with its finger-licking-good Nashville-style fried chicken. From their humble beginnings in Melbourne, Belles has expanded rapidly, winning over Sydneysiders with its eateries in Glebe and Barangaroo. Now, Belles is upping the ante with its biggest Sydney location yet, a spacious restaurant with seating for up to 130 guests.

Set to open on March 3rd, Belles Circular Quay will be the ultimate dining experience, combining comfort food with a refined atmosphere. The new venue features Belle’s signature warm tones, cork detailing, neon lights, and vintage tiles, making it just as fitting for a rowdy night out as it is for a cosy meal with friends, all backdropped to stunning views of Sydney Harbour. 

On the menu, Belle’s has everything from wings and drumsticks to tenders and buffalo cauli, all available in their signature flavours – chicken salt, original, traveller, hot, and really f**kin hot. They also have Nashville-style chicken sandwiches, sides, and share plates, so there’s something for everyone.

What’s a restaurant dining experience without a considered drinks list to wash it all down? Belles has you covered with their Belles Original Draught, Pappy Van Winkle 15yo shot (for those feeling fancy), and Louis Roederer Cristal Brut (because nothing goes better with chicken than champagne). Plus, a special canned cocktail – Rakija and Tonic – created by the Inner-West legends at Baba’s Place.

According to Managing Director Joss-Jenner Leuthart, “Belles Circular Quay feels like a real coming of age for our 8-year-old brand. Off are the training wheels, it’s full noise from here. We think of Belles as a social lubricant and fried chicken as a social equaliser – a place to kick back, dig in, chill out or party-up. We’re for all of it and everyone.”

So, mark your calendars and get ready for some seriously good vibes, great drinks, and f**kin hot chicken at Belles Circular Quay. And if you’re quick, you might even snag one of the limited spots available for their friends and family preview sessions on March 2nd by registering here! Don’t miss out!
