Fast-food chicken and seafood joint coming to downtown Hamilton, Oakville, and Whitby

A small sign inside the mall in the downtown Hamilton mall hints at another new option for a fast-food treat that is coming to town — as well as to Oakville and Whitby.

Kajun Chicken and Seafood, which has earned strong reviews at its charter location in Thornhill, is adding another half-dozen locations around Central and Southern Ontario. That includes a spot in Hamilton at the Jackson Square Mall (2 King St. W.) that will be in near the southeast entrance to the shopping centre.

On its website, Kajun also says it will soon be in Oakville (240 North Service Rd.) and Whitby (3050 Garden St.). Currently, the restaurant has ratings of 4.4 to 4.5 (out of 5) on major food delivery apps.

Kajun self-professes to have the “most finger licking crispy fried chicken and seafood experience in (the Greater Toronto Area).” While it offers takeaway, some attention is being paid to being a fast-casual restaurant, as evidenced by the restaurants’ colourful interiors.

The menu includes both bone-in and boneless chicken, fish nuggets and fish tenders, and a jalapeno shrimps combination. Cauliflower bites are among Kajun’s premium sides, and the dessert menu includes two churro options: apple and Oreo.
