🚨PSA🚨
I’m so used to this it’s kinda beyond hilarious now - but like many of our brothers & sisters in the hospo scene right now…due to COVID issues - we will be reducing our opening hours for a week or two until we get back to capacity somewhat 🤷🏽‍♂️
So…we will be closed Tuesday to Thursday for lunch shifts (11.30am to 3pm) but OPEN ONLY for dinner (5pm to 8pm)
FRIDAY, SATURDAY & SUNDAY are normal trading hours for walk in & delivery 🚚
🤷🏽‍♂️❤️🐓🔥

Hey folks - it’s time to grind w Omicron now👈🏾
Nothing too much fir us has changed 👈🏾
But - We are limiting indoor numbers and can’t seat bigger groups - that means we can’t move our tables to accomodate groups. We want to ensure 1m distance is maintained during this period👈🏾
PLEASE DONT COME if you’re feeling sick! - get someone else to grab the order!👈🏾
Takeaway is still a preferred option during Level Red 🚨 we want to ensure we get through this together! 👈🏾
Omicron ain’t worth messing around with peeps 😘
Stay vigilant and be positive! (Just not COVID-positive!)👈🏾

Our Story

At Soul Shack our specialty is Nashville Hot Chicken. Nashville Hot Chicken was birthed in the USA and was introduced to the public through Prince’s Hot Chicken in Nashville.

Soul Shack Hot Chicken is trying to share this legacy with Wellington & beyond and seeks to make spicy fried chicken the way owner Rick would make it at home - the way he likes. Its natural state is spicy - a blend of oil, cayenne and smoky paprika and other spices. Our heat levels go from ZERO to nearly 3M scoville using imported Carolina Reaper Peppers.

We aren’t trying to be the BEST in Wellington or New Zealand - food isn’t a competition. Hot Chicken is a communal, family thing - full of soul. Its about WHO is at the table - not whats on the table that matters. We just hope you enjoy what we do here is all.
