History

Cluck-U Chicken was started by Fady Abi-Atme and Robert Ilvento[5] in 1985. The first location was in New Brunswick, New Jersey at Rutgers University.[6] Ilvento sold the business in 1999.[7]

In 2000, JP Haddad acquired the rights to develop the franchise nationally, while Ilvento began to promote the business.

Cluck-U Chicken (a.k.a. "Cluck") serves chicken wings ("wingers") with a variety of traditional sauces including Honey-Hickory and spicy sauces on the scale Mild, Atomic, Nuclear, Thermo-Nuclear, 911 and Nuclear Fusion.[1][8] At some locations where the "911" sauce is served, customers must sign a liability waiver.[4] Other food products include chicken sandwiches, salads, appetizers, chicken fingers, fries, rice bowls, fish sandwiches and the like.[9]
