We had a server named maria she was so very kind and an AMAZING waitress!!!. Gave her a big tip!!.. our bil was also not super harsh for 6 people with 3 adults who had alcohol.. thank you so much champs world famous fried chicken in chattanooga tennessee!!!..
What a fun place to go on a date. The service is great, kind and funny. The atmosphere is unmatched to other places I have been. Great fried chicken and a nice little twist on the coleslaw. Would recommend bringing the family or go with some buddies to have some great food and drinks and catch a game.
we were traveling through tennessee and found this gem! it feels very homey and welcoming. my server was very sweet and all the servers were keeping the area clean in between customers. our food was fresh and came out pretty quickly. price wasn’t bad, either! i have no complaints (:
Pretty cool place to check out. Was my first time visiting on the way through town. Food and service were great. Vibes were awesome. Parking was full but there is a "paid" lot across the street.
Emma was the bestall around. So young and knows what customer service is all about. Great attitude. Food was like it was homemade and fresh. Love all the pieces all over the walls. Staff was great.
Good vibes and yummy food! Best chicken livers we've ever had by far. And our waitress was the sweetest, most attentive person ever. And $5 for a 40! All the food was very reasonably priced and had big portions. Loved it here
Great chicken sandwich! Best fried chicken in Chattanooga, and always good sides. The green beans are probably the best I've ever had. Usually get the 8 piece and share. Cheese and sausage is a good app with the pickles
Yummm. We had the 3 piece dark meat, fried chicken dinner salad and the chicken salad sandwich. Also added an order of hush puppies and grabbed a piece of strawberry cake to go. Everything was wonderful. The chicken salad is a must! Finally a delicious strawberry cake, real strawberries, moist and big enough to share ! Next time Im trying the fried pickle spears. Happy Eating !
Our waitress was Lakyn, she was very professional, courteous and kept checking back, drinks were very good, food was hot, delicious and very tasty. Chicken 🐔 tenders were very large, crispy and delicious, baked beans and potato salad was refreshing. My wife had a grilled chicken wrap with a side of fries, very well done, alot better than other wraps we tried. Thank You for the fantastic service Lakyn, and delicious food. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Super cool restaurant that I guess is a chain. This place had some amazing staff members, who were funny and nice. We got our food fast and it was delicious. The vibe of the place was super cool, with signed dollar bills by customers coating every surface space available on all of the walls (of course we added our contribution). Would definitely love to come back and try some of the other locations! Love from cali!
