Innovative store-in-store concept and growing franchise network signal a bold new chapter for the brand.

Chicken Cottage is thrilled to announce the opening of two new stores- one in Bookham Hylands Petrol Station and another in Surbiton- marking yet another step in the brand’s ambitious expansion plans across the UK.

The Bookham location represents a major milestone, introducing Chicken Cottage’s first-ever store-in-store concept inside Esso petrol station alongside Spar. The grand opening was buzzing with excitement, smiles, and satisfied customers sampling our signature menu items, witnessing a strong sign of growing community enthusiasm for the brand.

Meanwhile, the Surbiton launch stands as a testament to the loyalty and love Chicken Cottage continues to inspire. Customers eagerly returned for their favourite flavours, underscoring the brand’s commitment to consistency, quality, and authentic taste.

Both openings were brand conversions from other operators, with franchisees now expressing strong satisfaction with the performance and the continued support from Chicken Cottage’s head office team. The success of these conversions further highlights the brand’s ability to deliver value through operational excellence, marketing innovation, and a proven franchise model.

“These launches reflect the exciting direction Chicken Cottage is heading in- building innovative partnerships, expanding our footprint, and supporting our franchisees to grow with confidence,” said Sadaf Kazi, Franchise Development Partner at Chicken Cottage. “Our focus remains on creating experiences that customers love and ensuring our franchise partners succeed.”

A special thanks goes to Sadaf Kazi for bringing some of the most passionate franchisees into the Chicken Cottage family, and to Yusuf Ramadan for leading the execution of these openings with excellence.

As Chicken Cottage continues to evolve, these launches reaffirm the brand’s ambition to innovate, expand strategically, and strengthen community connections- one store at a time.
