The Hot Bird

Best Known For

Free-range roast chicken, marinated in herbs and spices, cooked on the rotisserie.

Head to The Hot Bird on Koornang Road in Carnegie for a modern take on a classic local chicken shop, specialising in rotisserie free-range chicken, fresh salads and burgers. A light, bright vibe of whitewashed brick, display cabinets promising a wide selection of delicious, healthy salads and friendly service await hungry Melburnians at this diner, which goes by a sustainable ethos and is single-use plastic-free. From a menu that is good for the planet and your body, order a roast chicken meal with chips and salad to feed the family, or opt for grilled chicken, marinated in herbs and spices and cooked to order, best enjoyed with a side of loaded chips. Burgerholics can wrap their hands around the aptly-named Southern Bird – fried chicken, American cheese, slaw, pickles and chipotle mayo.
