Smash Bird, Cross Street

The Cross Street branch of this bright pink chicken restaurant opened at the end of the last week of November 2025 - to invited guests the first night, and then to the public.

It's located in between Sugar Dolls nail bar and 3B Barbers - in the unit that was home to Crazy Corn.  The decor is all new, and with them opening in Christmas season, the seasonal decorations are in bold shapes on the outside of the building.

Inside, there's a small eat-in dining area, as well as their more familiar takeaway.

The menu is similar, perhaps exactly the same, as Dominick Street:  wings, dawgs, vegan junk - the trimmings like drinks sides.  Initislly there was no menu board outside, but that was fixed pretty quickly.

It's not yet clear if this store will replace Dominick Street, or both will stay open long term.  But for now, both are open.
