Cox's Hot Chicken




















Holy Cluck! I'm pleased to announce Nashville-style hot chicken has arrived in downtown New Albany.

I had been shopping on the furniture corner of State and Main, and I noticed new signage. It was lunch time, and there was Cox's Hot Chicken right across the street. They are in the former Big Four Burgers spot, with a new sports bar theme.

In addition to hot chicken, the menu includes burgers, sandwiches, some amazing-looking nachos and other appie-type of dishes. I went with the Hot Chicken Salad, as I've been celebrating the holidays with a bit of gusto and I could use the vegetable boost. As the hot chicken flavors go at most spots, you get to decide the heat. I went with Holy Cluck, which is the level below the ghost pepper version, which is Clucking Scary. Holy Cluck was quite firey, even with the bleu cheese dressing to cool it off. The flavor was good, so that will be my go-to level on my next visit.
