Crimson Coward was established in 2019 in Downey, Calif. After expanding to a second location in 2022, the brand has locations in California, Texas, Michigan and Virginia.

The menu at Crimson Coward is in the hot chicken landscape with fresh, never frozen, hand-marinated chicken served in a variety of spice levels. Daily made sides are also prominent features at the chicken joints, with popular items such as homemade macaroni and cheese, slaw, fried pickles and the Crimson Onion. Each location prioritizes the customer experience with an open kitchen concept and the “Lucky 7” counter-height seats where guests can get a firsthand look at their made-to-order fare while being deliciously rewarded with free samples.
