Chicken nuggets are a favorite for all ages. While quick service establishments serve their saucy version, the store-bought options bring fun with specialty shapes. Mealtime becomes more than just a quick bite. Patrons want to dive into the fun.
Located off of Shunpike Rd at the corner on the lower level of Hickory Square in Chatham, my partner and I came to Nugget Spot, originally opened in 2013 on East 14th Street in NYC for an Elite event thanks to Sara and the Yelp team.
Upon entering as first-timers yesterday, we were greeted by the staff inside this cozy vibe with only one table and some bar-style seating, with one table outside but mostly takeout. A staff member was so helpful, sharing tips on what to get and walking us through the menu, and we got a bit of history of the place while we waited for our food.
We decided on the Summer Special with the Fried Chicken Ice Cream Sandwich, the Medium Nugs Combo with nacho queso sauce, the Boylan’s Soda Float with the creme soda, and the Limeade.
The quality of the food here is what sets them apart. The seasoning & breading of the nuggets was phenomenal; even without dipping into a sauce, they were tasty with a kick. The portion was healthy enough for a second meal, especially the sandwich.
We met a Yelp couple from Cranford, making this experience more enjoyable. We can also see why they take pride in handcrafting the crispiest, most crave-worthy chicken nuggets using only premium ingredients and bold, house-made seasonings. We can...
Read moreFor my summer experience you go with an open mind, palate and stomach. I stopped by The Nugget Spot in Chatham NJ. Jason ( the owner) gave us a nice warm welcome when we arrived. They restaurant is small and very clean and organized. They have their merchandise hanging on the side. There is no public restroom. This is great for a quick bite and to go orders. They have a summer menu which I had looked over before I arrived to the restaurant. One of the summer menu items that grabbed my attention was the spicy fried chicken sandwich with Chipotle ice cream....yes you read it correctly ... fried chicken and ice cream . We also got a Raspberry lemonade milkshake and a kids Nugget combo with Raspberry lemonade. It's did not take long for them to make the food. So I actually liked the sandwich, the spicy chicken wasn't really that spicy but it had a kick and the ice cream cooled it off but gave it a good flavor to the sandwich. So if it's summer I totally say try this sandwich it's an innovative recipe. The Raspberry lemonade milkshake was fabulousssss as well as the homemade Raspberry ice tea. My daughter was very happy with her kids meal too. So if you are in Chatham pop on over to the Nugget spot and give it a try! And If you want something interesting and new try the spicy fried chicken with ice cream on it. Enjoy!!!
