Big big portions!! We were a party of 10 and they took care of us right away! It felt like I was at a cozy home where I can relax next to a fireplace. The Christmas decorations were gorgeous and it really felt like I was in a winter wonderland with chicken figurines! It was very amusing seeing how many chicken items they had. There was so much to see! The food was delicious and I can't imagine a better first time experience at a new place! The staff were all so polite and patient with our party and we're forever grateful. Will definitely be back.

Stopped in for lunch. Good buffet with a salad and soup bar. Delicious sides and of course what they're known for....Crispy fried chicken! Wonderful staff, relaxed atmosphere and the sweet tea is not too sweet. A great place to eat and dine in.

I was last week here and what else can I say? It was the best place I’ve been while in the US. Very nice “classic” style dinner with history and tradition. Super good chicken dinner, absolutely delicious. The waitress very friendly and welcoming. Overall an absolutely great place to have a nice decent dinner to very affordable price. I only regret that I couldn’t come a second time!

Delicious. Portions are great. Service awesome. They had candy bowls on each table for trick or treating kids. (Saturday before Halloween)

Wonderful throwback place on Route 66. From the neon sign, slanted glass, and fireplace. As the name says, they are known for their chicken. Jumbo fried shrimp and the chicken and waffles are favorites. Lots of chicken decorations. We tried their buffet once, but we did not make it in until early afternoon, and many of the items were dried out.

If you want home cooking away from home.. this is the spot. Open since 1946 they are serving some of the juiciest chicken you'll ever put in your mouth. Our server Vicky was very nice and did a great job. The prices went up though since the last time we had been here, the chicken dinner is now pricey at $20+tax+tip. Which seems like a lot of money for chicken, mash potatoes, and some green beans. Regardless.. it's a fantastic spot to grab a quality meal. Don't sit on the bar side that's where all the screaming kids are.. sit in the main dining room with the adults. If it's a weekend make a reservation. 🐔

Rich history and very hometown feel. Came with a big group. Most of us had the buffet. Soup and salad selections are very good. Basically, this is fried food. They had their iconic fried chicken, fish, and ravioli. Mashed potatoes were outstanding. My husband ordered the 4 piece dark meat chicken basket. Everyone was happy with their food. I'm not a fried food eater, so it's was not my preference.

Just love this place I come once or twice a week,service is always great !!! Food is really good, especially if you have 30 minutes to wait for something made from scratch , choose from the menú!! Steaks are really good,well served and with a very decent price (around 20$) Now ,if you are in a rush ,the buffet is a great option , chicken and dumpling soup is a must , friday it seems they have the best choice , shrimps and fish besides the always served chicken!! Few desert and fruits also. Did I mention that service is great ?

This is a great place for chicken, but the steak salad should not be overlooked. Service was friendly and fantastic! The bread pudding is a must.

I got the chicken sandwich, and the other 2 in my group got pot pies. Everyone really liked their food choices. We got there around 8pm, no wait to be seated.

I’m not sure how you can rate this place anything less than a 5. Food is outstanding and large portions. Salad bar was great. Service was exceptional. Our waitress was the best I’d had in a while. The decor was right up my alley and on point to it’s history. It’s a definite suggestion for me.

I've heard about this place for a long time, but today was our first visit. We got there right around noon and could not find a parking spot. Thankfully my wife went inside and the nice waitress told me it was OK to park across the street. We had the lunch buffet. The food, especially the chicken was awesome! Nice and hot and constantly fresh. All the sides, the soup and the salad bar was great. Not many buffets around anymore, so if you like them and like fried chicken you can't do any better than things one. Reasonably priced too.

This place was amazing! We came here to try it out and have passed by so many times. We are so happy to have stopped in! Everyone greeted you with such a warm welcome and the service was awesome. The food was incredible and so filling! This is seriously the best chicken around. We left with very happy bellies and are so excited to return! 🐓

Great food, cool vintage dining room. It was a busy Sunday afternoon, nice server but it took a while to get our dinners! Worth the wait, but plan accordingly.

Wow what a great place! The food was outstanding. The chicken was nicely breaded but not overly so. We had the dinner that included the soup and salad bar. It was a great traditional salad bar, and the creamy garlic dressing was outstanding. The portions are large, the service was great and we can't wait to go back again. This has become a regular place for us to eat at. Love this place. This is a must if you love chicken. The route 66 red ale beer is outstanding. This place has been shown on Diners, Drive- Ins and Dives on the food network.

Lucky someone recommended me this place! I ordered the tenders and the 1/2 fried chicken with fries and coleslaw, loved the tenders, they were juicy and the flavor was perfect! The chicken is superior to most fried chicken you can get in the area, the biscuits were perfection. The fries and coleslaw were good too! The staff is friendly and I loved the vibes of the dining room, it feels like you are eating in a southern home from a movie, staff is friendly, will be coming back soon!

We stopped here after some online research. Fun and funky atmosphere. Staff are super nice, service is fast and accommodating. We both had the buffet. The salad bar is awesome. Great choices and wonderful soup. Food is hot and delicious. Decor is fun and an old Route 66 relic.

Just very good chicken. I remember as a little boy in the 1950's my parents used to take us for chicken in the basket. Back in those days it was a real treat. My dad had a 1949 Kaiser automobile.
