Normal is home to Illinois State University, and its Dave’s Hot Chicken on Greenbrier Drive keeps college-town hours: it stays open until 2 AM Thursday through Saturday.
Address: 200 Greenbrier Dr., Normal, IL 61761
Store page: Hours, phone & online ordering on daveshotchicken.com
Hours
Monday–Wednesday: 10:00 AM – 12:00 AM
Thursday–Saturday: 10:00 AM – 2:00 AM
Sunday: 10:00 AM – 12:00 AM
It opens at 10 AM every day, which is earlier than a lot of Dave’s stores, so it works just as well for an early lunch as it does for a late-night run. Dave’s official store page lists takeout and mobile ordering here and doesn’t list a drive-thru. The same page says this location serves halal chicken, so if that matters to you, it’s still worth a quick check at the counter.
Dave’s Hot Chicken Normal Menu & Prices
Normal’s combined sales tax is 9.75%, and the third column adds that. Restaurants in Normal also collect a local food and beverage tax on top, so the total on your receipt may come in a little higher than these numbers.
