Dave’s Hot Chicken – Vestal, NY

Vestal’s location sits on Vestal Parkway East, in the retail corridor that connects the town to Binghamton and Binghamton University. It’s a popular stop for students and locals alike, especially given the area’s limited late-night food options on weeknights.

Being close to a university town, this location tends to see a steady stream of students, especially around dinner time and weekend nights. The menu is the standard Dave’s setup — Hot Chicken Tenders and Sliders at seven spice levels, with kale slaw, pickles, and Dave’s sauce included. You can dine in, order ahead online, use curbside pickup, or order delivery through the apps that serve the Vestal and Binghamton area. Combo meals with fries are the better deal if you’re ordering for a group.
