This chicken is damn good & damn hot! they aren't lying with the spice level and I like to think I can handle at least a good medium heat. We walked in on a Saturday around 5pm and were able to place our order within 5 minutes. The employee was very friendly and helped walk us through the different levels of heat. We ended up going with the tender meal with a heat level between medium and hot. Our side was mac fritters and the drink was pink lemonade. The meal comes with a slice of fluffy white bread and I definitely needed it This chicken was some of the hottest I've ever had. It was crispy and delicious and the same can be said about the mac and cheese fritters. They were creamy and gooey on the inside and perfectly breaded on the outside. The tenders came with their signature dipping sauce which was good, but i'm not sure exactly what was in it. It helped cool down the chicken a little! The ambiance is super cool both inside and out. They don't have much inside seating available, but it is decorated and lit with lots of neon and bright colors. The outside has 2 covered tables that each seat about 6 and about 3 picnic style tables directly out front that are not covered. Parking is available on the street out front.

The hot boys do not fuck around, their medium plus is easily hotter than the "5 star", "insane", "nuclear", etc at most other restaurants. My face is on the wall for doing a spicy eating challenge at another hot chicken place like this... so I almost ordered the hot, I'm glad I didn't! The medium plus really challenged me! Don't be fooled by the quaint and kitschy little building, they actually have a pretty respectable selection of taps and even hard liquor!

We stopped at Hotboys for lunch while visiting a bunch of bookstores in the area. Walking in here instantly puts you in a good mood with all the fun decorations. We had never been here before so the guy at the register showed us the menu and suggested the étouffée, saying it was a particularly good that day. We ordered it with the rest of our lunch- and he was right! The chicken was also really good, fries were hot and crispy. We will definitely stop in again next time we are in the area.

Normally I wouldn't review somewhere I've been so many times, but this was the next HotBoys experience I've had. The food was so delicious and it was a perfect day to sit outside in FSQ.

This is a must-try! I am not into super spicy food, but I got the Tender Sando Meal in Mild and it was perfect. Still a burn, but enjoyable! My fries were delicious and the coleslaw on the sandwich took it to another level! I also really enjoyed the bun. I love this Hotboys location for the VIBES. It's very small (maybe 10 tables), but there's always a constant stream of takeout orders whenever I'm there. It's such a cool spot for a quick bite if you're in the Fountain Square area!

I was here for a meeting with some of my alumni before they had to leave for college, we ordered our food and it came out pretty fast! I enjoyed the chicken sandwich with fries, it was very tasty! I also get training wheels for spice, because while I enjoy spice, I don't want my sinus draining as I eat. Love how it's decorated there is a fun mix of lights colors and other interesting decor. Check them out if you are in the ft square area.

I've been hearing about this place for a long time so I was finally able to go check it out during Fountain Square's "First Friday" monthly event! I can happily say it was worth the wait! The chicken is amazing! I had the Chicken & Waffles with mild heat & my wife had the loaded chicken fries that were STACKED with toppings! (Not pictured because they were half gone by the time I got my food and as you can see I was so excited that I almost forgot to take a picture myself!) It can be a little tight inside, but they have a very nice patio outside and I love the vibe and old diner type feel to it. Lastly, if you love spicy, you'll love how spicy things can get but be cautious!

The food was good and we loved both the Mac n cheese and the fries. I appreciated the options for spice and heat so my mild was doable and not burning my oh so sensitive taste buds. The wait was short even though they were busy, and we loved the ability to sit outside in the sunny day. The music choices were just not our thing and sort of ruined the experience for us. I work with a diverse group and this found some of the lyrics to just be over the top - so be warned about that if going and eating in. We might go again as the food was good, but would only take it to go.

Second time in Indnpls, but the first time for World Famous Hotboys. The talk is primarily about how hot is Hot and how much of the heat can you stand. As a huge fan of spice, but a hungry hungry contestant who wanted to enjoy my food rather than suffer, I opted to try the Medium Hot. Will admit that it was an ideal amount of spice to have heat but still enjoy. Brandon ordered the Hot and pretty much suffered the entire time. The few bites that I tried of the Hot were tolerable but it could have been a completely different experience had that been my entire sandwich, it gets stronger the more of it you eat. Do they sell milk? That could help?

A cool, vibrant chicken spot open late on the weekends located in the heart of Fountain Square. This place always have the best bangers blasting through the speakers and top-notch chicken sandwiches and tenders with customizable spice levels. I'm a baby when it comes to the spice so I stick with the mild, but they have options with more heat or no heat at all! Fun, friendly staff, and I never have a problem finding parking on the weekends. Definitely my personal favorite hot chicken restaurant in Indy :)
