Bonchon Drumsticks
Price & Calories 2026
Bonchon Drumsticks are double-fried, hand-brushed, and available in three sizes. Everything you need to know — prices, calories, sauces, and the best size to order — all in one place.
The Meatier Choice
Bonchon Drumsticks are the meatier, more filling alternative to wings. Each piece is hand-battered, double-fried twice using Bonchon's signature Korean technique, and then hand-brushed with your chosen sauce — not dipped, not poured, but brushed individually so every inch of the crispy exterior gets coated evenly.
Compared to wings, drumsticks offer more meat per piece and a different sauce experience. Because of the steam inside the larger cut, bold sauces like Spicy and Soy Garlic penetrate deeper into the surface, making each bite more intensely flavored. If you are ordering for one person who wants a filling meal, or for a group that wants something meatier than wings, drumsticks are the right call.
Every order comes with a complimentary side of Pickled Radish or Coleslaw — a Korean tradition that helps cut through the richness of the fried chicken and refresh your palate between bites.
All 3 Sizes With Prices
* Prices may vary slightly by location. Calorie range varies by sauce choice.
5 Sauces Available
You choose your sauce when ordering. Half & Half is available — pick two sauces and get them split across your order. For drumsticks, Soy Garlic and Spicy are the two most popular choices.
The Double-Fry Process
Most fried chicken is fried once. Bonchon fries every piece twice — and that extra step is the entire reason the skin stays crispy for longer than any other restaurant-style fried chicken you have had.

Soy Garlic is the #1 choice — the savory glaze works perfectly with the larger surface area. Spicy is #2 for heat lovers. Half & Half (Soy Garlic + Spicy) is the most popular combo for first-timers.
Yes — every order comes with a complimentary side of Pickled Radish or Coleslaw. Additional sides like Steamed Rice ($2.05) and Kimchi ($3.05) can be added for an extra charge.
Bonchon is not universally halal. Confirmed halal locations in the USA include Skokie, IL and Ellicott City, MD. Always confirm with your local Bonchon location before ordering.
Best method: air fryer at 375°F for 6–8 minutes — restores the crispy exterior close to fresh. Oven at 400°F for 10–12 minutes also works. Avoid the microwave — it makes the skin soft and rubbery.
