Lucky Plucker is a fast-food chain specializing in fried chicken appearing in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Description[]
The chain sells a variety of meals including sandwiches and fried chicken. It is likely a minor competitor of the much larger Cluckin' Bell chicken chain. Lucky Plucker is a small chain, similar to Bishop's Chicken, suggesting that it might be an emerging business. The chain's mascot is a chicken with a fully plucked and cooked body, but regular head.
In Grand Theft Auto V, the chain only has one restaurant in operation in Davis and is in the process of opening its second store in Little Seoul, adjacent to the Weazel News Building.
With the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update for Grand Theft Auto Online, the chain received a slight refresh to its branding first seen on the Hotring Sabre, with an updated logo font and color palette, but with the same mascot. This updated branding would later appear on clothing seen in the Arena War update as well as vehicles like the Pegassi Zorrusso.
Influence[]
The chain's logo and iconography are similar to, and indicate a parody of, Popeye's Louisiana Chicken. The name itself is likely a play on the phrase "lucky fucker".
Locations[]
Lucky Plucker have two outlets in Los Santos; one in Little Seoul, and one in Davis. The two building remain almost identical in design, albeit the Little Seoul branch is said to be "opening soon" and still has signs of renovation. Both outlets have large menu screens mounted on the walls and on a sign at one corner of the building. In the original version of the game, both buildings had the same menu, bearing a blue scheme and relatively worn and dirty. In the enhanced version of the game, the menu texture was since updated at the Little Seoul branch, copying the menu board from Horny's Burgers, but remains the same at the Davis branch.

Prominent Appearances in Gameplay[]
- In the Strangers and Freaks mission Pulling Another Favor, Franklin must tow an abandoned car parked in the Lucky Plucker parking lot in Little Seoul.
Trivia[]
- The real-life soda brands Sprite, Fanta and Barq's appear on stickers on the worn menu texture found at the Little Seoul outlet in the enhanced version, or both outlets in the original version of the game.[1] A further patch in the enhanced version adjusts the texture and removes these stickers, but remain in the original version of the game.
Oversights[]
- A light pole in the parking area of the Little Seoul outlet is not placed correctly on the pavement, causing it to appear to float.
