About Mary Brown’s Chicken & Taters
Mary Brown’s Chicken originated in the province of Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada, in 1969. From the beginning, the brand possessed two distinct strengths: a delicious recipe for southern fried chicken and the genuine hospitality of Newfoundlanders. 50 years later, these pillars remain the foundation of Mary Brown’s success.Today, with over 200 locations and 50 more in the 2022 pipeline, Mary Brown’s is offering its one-of-a-kind chicken recipe to the rest of the world. There is a strong and growing demand for delicious, high quality, handmade chicken that is not currently being met by existing concepts. With the right partners, Mary Brown’s will become a fast fan favorite and market leader just as it has in Canada.

Quality

In an industry dominated by ‘rushed’ and ‘pre-fabricated’ food, Mary Brown’s is set apart by a Made Fresh from ScratchTM approach. Preparing food fresh daily in each store from locally farmed chicken and potatoes is the key to the amazing taste of Mary Brown’s menu.

Premium quality is intrinsic to Mary Brown’s approach. The food is prepared in small batches, marinated, breaded and hand cut using methodologies that have been honed for 50 years. Cooking is done in Mary Brown’s proprietary cookers – unique, exclusive technology that uses heat rather than pressure to seal in flavour and ensure a light, golden, delicious result every time.
