ABOUT
Chick + Pea began with a simple idea: serve really good food, with really great vibes. Back in 2016, founder, Jeremy, decided to ditch the desk jobs and take a leap into the delicious unknown. Armed with a love of bold flavours, a passion for people, and a slightly temperamental Citroën H van named Albert, he, along with his team, hit the road.
What started as a humble street food stall quickly became something much bigger. Thanks to commitment to quality ingredients, vibrant Mediterranean-inspired menus, and infectious energy, Chick + Pea caught the attention of foodies, event planners, and even film crews.
