Chicken Licken Menu With Updated Prices in South Africa 2026
Prices last checked: October 2026. Prices are taken from the official Chicken Licken South Africa online menu. Chicken Licken notes that this is a standard menu and that all menu items are halaal, though prices can still differ slightly from one restaurant to the next, so always confirm the price at your specific branch before you order.
Chicken Licken is South Africa’s own chicken institution. The first Chicken Licken opened in Soweto in 1981, and the brand has grown into one of the country’s most loved fast-food chains, famous for its Soulfire spicy chicken, its Hotwings, and its proudly South African attitude — “SoulFood” is not just a slogan here, it is the whole identity. Today Chicken Licken trades from hundreds of restaurants across South Africa, serving everything from a single piece of chicken to a Family Barrel for the whole table.
The Chicken Licken menu is built around value and spice. You can grab a Slyder for fifteen rand, pick up an Easy Bucks snack for thirty, order a Soul Sister or Rock My Soul meal, or go big with a Family Bucket or Family Barrel. Add Soul Fries, Soulslaw, achaar or tomato salsa on the side, and finish with a Cool Cone or a Kreemy Cyclone. On this page you will find the full Chicken Licken menu with updated prices in South Africa for 2026.
