Naskip Lelydorp
Suriname's beloved chicken wing haven, slinging saucy plates in Lelydorp since 1962
Why Go
For more than six decades, Naskip has been the go-to pit stop between Paramaribo and the interior — a no-frills local spot where the chicken comes crispy, the sauces come in more flavors than you'd expect, and the crowd is pure Surinamese energy.
The Experience
Roll up to the Rooslaan branch and you'll find a casual, family-friendly setup that fills up fast with locals grabbing dinner, groups debriefing after a long drive, and weekend nighthawks stretching the evening past midnight. The vibe is warm and unpretentious — plastic chairs, bright lighting, easygoing staff who'll steer you toward the right sauce if you look overwhelmed. It's the kind of place where a quick stop turns into an hour because you keep ordering 'just one more' basket of wings.
What to Try
Chicken wings are the whole point here — order them classic buffalo if it's your first visit, then graduate to the spicy mango on round two. Pair them with a mountain of crispy fries and a fresh salad to cut the heat. Regulars swear by mixing two sauces on one order so you can compare bites.
Insider Tip
Come early on Friday or Saturday evenings — the kitchen stays open until 1 a.m. those nights, but the peak-hour rush between 7 and 10 p.m. means long waits and picked-over sauces. If you're driving down from Paramaribo, time your visit for late lunch (around 2–3 p.m.) when the place is calm and the wings come out fastest.
The Practical Stuff
Located at MQVM+25Q on Rooslaan in Lelydorp, roughly a 25-minute drive south of Paramaribo along the East–West Link. Open Monday–Thursday 8 a.m.–9 p.m., Friday and Saturday 8 a.m.–1 a.m., and Sunday 8 a.m.–9 p.m. Cash is king in Suriname — bring SRD. Casual dress, no reservations needed, dine-in and takeaway both work. Delivery is available through Bestel.sr if you're posted up at a nearby guesthouse.
