Kickin’Inn Celebrates 7 Years of Growth, Flavour & Culture!

Seven years ago, Sami and I opened our very first Kickin’Inn in Petersham. Today, on our 7th anniversary, we’re proud to celebrate 28 locations Australia-wide and not a single one franchised. 🙌

From a dream in Petersham to 28 locations Australia-wide, our Australia dream came true, sharing our love for Kajun seafood with every guest. We are so grateful to our amazing customers for being part of this incredible journey. 🦞❤️

In Celebration of 7 Years of Kickin’Inn Here Are 7 Kickin’ Highlights:

Rapid Growth: 28 Stores in 7 Years

When we started Kickin’Inn, our vision was clear: bring fresh, delicious seafood to Australians with a vibe and culture unlike any other. Fast forward seven years, and we’re thrilled to have grown to 28 stores nationwide, averaging about 4 new stores each year!

This rapid expansion wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our amazing customers and dedicated team members. Each new location helps us bring the unique Kickin’Inn experience to more seafood lovers every day.

A Dining Experience Like No Other

At Kickin’Inn, we believe seafood is best enjoyed with your hands and that means no fancy table etiquette here. We encourage our guests to roll up their sleeves, get a little messy, and truly dive into the fun of eating seafood.

This “out of the box” dining style is part of what makes Kickin’Inn more than just a restaurant, it’s a community and a vibe. Whether you’re enjoying prawns, mussels, or crab, you’re part of something special.

A Kickin’ Menu that Keeps Evolving

Our menu has come a long way since day one! From our signature sauces to limited-time dishes, we’re always cooking up something new.

We’re constantly refreshing our offerings from bold flavour twists to seasonal specials, while keeping the Kickin’ classics you know and love. Whether you’re a first-timer or a regular, there’s always something fresh, fun, and full of flavour to discover.

1.5 Million+ Happy Customers Served

We’re honoured to have welcomed over 1.5 million guests through our doors across Australia. Every smile, celebration, and seafood feast reminds us why we do what we do.

From birthday parties and family dinners to first dates and friendly catch-ups, our restaurants have become a go-to spot for memorable moments.
We’re grateful for every customer who has made Kickin’Inn part of their story  and we can’t wait to serve millions more.

Giving Back to the Community

We believe in giving back. It is a core part of who we are at Kickin’Inn. Through a range of charity partnerships, local sponsorships, and community programs, we are committed to making a positive impact beyond the plate.

We are proud to support organisations that are doing incredible work, to name a few:

• Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia (PCFA), helping raise awareness and funds for men’s health

• Little Wings, supporting seriously ill children in regional areas by providing free air and ground transport to life-saving medical care

We also collaborate with many other community-focused organisations across Australia. From local events to national initiatives, we are passionate about giving back to the communities that support us. At Kickin’Inn, it is not just about great food. It is about making a difference together.

Proudly an Australian Brand

Kickin’Inn was born right here in Australia. Built on Aussie values of mateship, diversity, and quality, we have grown into a brand that reflects the vibrant spirit of our community.

We are proud to be an Australian brand, supporting local communities, working with local suppliers, and staying true to the culture and flavour that makes us unique.
Our journey started with a simple idea and a big dream, and today we continue to grow while staying connected to our roots. As we expand, we remain committed to delivering authentic experiences that celebrate our love for great food and great people.

Thank You for Being Part of Our Journey

From a single store to a national icon in just seven years, the Kickin’Inn story is one of passion, culture, and community. We couldn’t have done it without you — our loyal customers, friends, and families.

Here’s to many more years of growth, flavour, and unforgettable experiences. Stay tuned for exciting new developments and offers as we continue to bring you the very best in seafood dining.

Cheers to 7 years and many more to come!
