Bolton's Spicy Chicken & Fish is a beloved Nashville institution, revered for its family recipe of hot chicken and fish that has been passed down through generations. Established by Bolton Polk and run by his heirs, Bolton Matthews and Dollye Ingram, the eatery has expanded its reach with a second location in Nashville and a successful pop-up in Los Angeles.
The menu offers a spectrum of spice levels to cater to all tastes, from mild and flavorful to daringly hot. Diners can enjoy a variety of chicken options, including leg quarters, wings, and tenders, alongside flavorful catfish and whiting, all accompanied by thoughtful sides that enhance the overall experience.
