Double Chicken Please, a design-driven cocktail bar on New York's Lower East Side, has established itself as a creative studio transcending tradition. Through the lens of art and design and guided by its core concept of "design hacking", it deconstructs and rebuilds traditional elements of drinks, dishes, products, and experiences by blending design and hospitality to push creative boundaries and deliver unexpected experiences.
With unwavering dedication and devotion, Co-founders GN Chan and Faye Chen lead the team to reinvigorate the cocktail industry with innovation and imagination. The multi-faceted team at Double Chicken Please includes Dining Concepts, Events & Programming, Marketing & Communications, and Art & Design, working to elevate hospitality, provide exceptional guest experiences, and share our values, passions and visions with the world.
The Concept
Double Chicken Please offers dual concepts and guest experiences in one space. The contemporary FREE RANGE engages visitors through a transportive menu rooted in storytelling, serving cocktails inspired by classic cartoons alongside a diverse array of shareable dishes.
The Coop is adorned with mid-century decor and offers an extensive selection of craft cocktails inspired by the innovative approach of hacking design, which deconstructs the flavors from culinary dishes and rebuilds them into cocktails.
The Other Chicken
Established by Turkie Tsai and Eye Chen,"The Other Chicken" serves as the in-house design team. With the duo’s professional industrial design backgrounds and iF DesignAwards, Double Chicken Please is driven to showcase the F&B industry as a new realm of possibilities through the approach of art.
Chicken & Beyond
Born on the road in a yellow VW camper van, Double Chicken Please began as a mobile cocktail vehicle traveling across the U.S. — experimenting with ideas, flavors, and the boundaries of design.
Today, Double Chicken Please continues to push the conversation forward through cross-disciplinary partnerships in fashion, art, and lifestyle. From limited-edition product design and immersive installations to conceptual pop-ups and visual storytelling, the brand explores new ways for hospitality to collide with creativity—always with the goal of inspiring connection through design, craft, and taste.
