Not fancy, but definitely finger-lickin’ 🍗

Raro Fried Chicken (RFC) in Avarua is a bit of an island icon — cheap, quick, and seriously popular with locals. It’s not your five-star dining experience, but if you’re craving salty, crispy fried chicken with hot chips and slaw, this place hits the spot. Perfect for a quick bite after the beach or a late-night food run (yep, it’s open 24/7!).

There are mixed reviews floating around, but we reckon for the price and portion, it’s worth a stop. And just a stone’s throw away is Annie’s Fried Chicken — a newer addition we’re really loving and prefer (also in this guide 😉).

Reviews:
"Cheap, greasy, and good — exactly what I was after. Locals were lining up too!"
— Jake from Hamilton, New Zealand

"Don’t expect gourmet, but if you need a fried chicken fix, it delivers. Bonus points for being open all night!"
— Talia from Sydney, Australia
