I know, i usually try to eat at funky ethnic places that serve pickled herring or fresh flour tortillas, but I am a sucker for fried chicken, hey i grew up in the South. My favorite fried chicken for a while could only be purchased at a chain store (NOT the COLONEL's or CHURCHES) but that other one from Louisiana....Oh, it feels good to get that off my chest. Bush's came from the Waco area. I am not a fan of Waco, but this is the best thing to come out of there. The chicken is always crispy and hot and just plain delicious. It seems like the chicken is bigger and better than any other place. If you like fried chicken, then you have to eat here! I am serious. They have a nice drive thru...more like a car hop service for pickup and the service inside is always nice. Their sides are okay, but I usually just get chicken. I have yet to try the gizzards and livers (which is one of my favorite parts of the chicken) If you don't like fried food and/or chicken, then don't come up here. There is one in Leander/Cedar Park on 1431 one block West of 183. I am doing the funky chicken dance right now. read more

Their fried chicken is very good, but that's not why I go there. For starters, I love their tenders...crispy, juicy, and delicious. However, the thing I go there for is the fries. Yes, that's right, the fries! They may look like just normal crinkle cut fries but they taste fantastic. These might be my favorite fast food fries...I've been known to pick up burgers from one place and skip on the fries there just to drive to Bush's to pick up their fries to go with the burgers! I don't know what it is, but they have perfected the french fry. I think they might fry them in the same grease as the fried chicken...I don't know. Damn, I want some right now! read more

New building, same worst service. Slow people who dont look like they even want to be working. Every single time I come through food is cold. Will make sure and never stop again. read more

Best fast food fried chicken I have ever had! I love fried chicken - coming from a southern/mid-western family, I have eaten lots of good chicken in my time. I usually won't touch fast food fried chicken with a 10 foot pole - but the reviews for Bush's changed my mind. Its very good hot fresh tasty chicken. Its not quite at the level of restaurant or speciality (like Lucy's or Mrs P's) friend chicken but its a great quick low cost chicken alternative! I will say the sweet tea was way too sweet for me... but the hubs loved it. Rolls are good, sides a decent and the service was absolutely top notch! Great place for a quick friend chicken fix! read more

Decided to go thru their Car Hop Drive Thru. Big mistake! With a steady stream of customers, we were pleased to be the first car in the third row. Another mistake. We sat there for 10 minutes. We watched the truck behind us and the one behind him get their food and we didn't even get to order! We watched as the kids went to the different cars, but no one came to us. Feeling rejected, we left. We've been there a few times, but there's always a problem. Not the right order or things missing. They really need to get it together. Don't think we'll bring going back. Extremely disappointed. read more

We love Bush's Chicken!!! They are always willing to help/donate to the community with no questions asked. It's hard to find establishments that are willing to give back to the community. Bush's is so gracious and for that we so thankful!!! read more

I am not a fried chicken type of person. I went on my hubby's request. Wow, good stuff. The chicken strips were crispy and tender. I LOVED the rolls and fried okra. Mac and cheese and coleslaw I could live without. I was craving those rolls and okra the next day... Oh, and hubs loves the sweet tea. read more

Service is always fast and polite. Food doesn't taste like it's been sitting forever so that's always a plus!

Its chicken. I needed a bite to eat. It was fresh. Service was speedy with a smile. Nothing fancy. Satisfied my pallet. If I'm in the area and want chicken I might go back. Fast food isn't something I venture often. Soooo.. Not sure about that. I ordered a couple tenders and a roll. read more

The need to completely BAN this place since there are so many of us trying to watch our girlish figure......NOT!!! - LOL - this place has always been right on the spot with Customer Service, price, quality of food and best of all CHICKEN IS NOT GREASY!! They truly care about their community and support local schools which is really hard to find these days. So WTG Bush's - now only if they would meander out to Liberty Hill :-) There tea is SO right on the spot for Sweet Tea (not over sweet and/or under sweet) whatever that means silly me but those of you that LOVE Sweet Tea - you know where I am coming from. Portions are just enough and sometimes they throw in a few extras pieces (my ALL time favorite). Thanks again Bush's Chicken!! You rock!! read more

Peach tea and chicken are stoooopid good. Staff are always super nice as well. All the sides I've tried are pretty good too.

Bush's not only has great food but also excellent customer service. A simple phone call resulted in an error being corrected with no questions asked. Thank you Bush's, read more

Love it! Great idea, quick drive through always fresh, cooked to order. Only thing I can say is I miss chicken and waffles on Sunday. I understand they did away with it due to no having enough business which I understand. read more

-Ok so I have to admit the food is pretty good and well prepared. -Service is kinda all over the place, not a real order to it all. -Management: AWFUL! Exceptions of Quincey he is genuine & never dissappoints! read more

it's the best chicken place I've ever tried it's better then canes and Haydn the best employee

Been in Texas for 3 years - love love love Bush's Chicken. It is always hot and fresh. I have never had chicken that had obviously been sitting. I always get the green beans, they are tasty. Hubs really likes their coleslaw. Entire family enjoys the rolls - we usually order extra. We really like that we can get the regular bone in pieces and our daughter who won't eat things on a bone is very happy with the tenders. Also like that the family dinners can be a combo of regular and strips. The counter help has always been friendly. We've never had a bad experience and look forward to future visits when the craving for fried chicken hits. read more

Ordered a family meal with 2 sides of French fries. The order took excessively long. It took excessively long for them to take my order. The French fries were hard and cold and tasted stale and like they were cooked in dish water. Bush's french fries are half the reason I go there, but I will be going to a better establishment from here on out. read more

Just spent 10 minutes at the drive through after the girl that was preoccupied with everything around her but taking our order. Sat as 5 other cars came after us and left before us with their orders. Then we had to honk to get anyone to come talk to us. Then the girl that took our order comes to the truck with the wrong order and claimed they had to cook the strips (you sell chicken why wasn't it cooked already?) oh the order she brought out belonged to someone behind us - why are people behind us getting the same strips we ordered before us if they had to cook them for our order??? Then she comes and says someone must have taken your order... doubt it!!! We left and went to Zaxby's. In today's competitive market try and hire someone that cares about service or lose money. read more

Chicken tender rolls were very good, coleslaw was very good, apple pie was good, but the mashed potatoes tasted like instant mashed potatoes, and were not good. When I go out to eat, I don't expect instant potatoes! Thus the reason for only 3 stars. read more

Not impressed. Chicken was dry. Tea was syrup that was not diluted. It was so sugary that that it burned my throat. I order 2 side of corn on the cob. For $1.99 each. They were 1/2 of a cob. Total waist of time and money. read more

Let's just raise the price on our poorly cooked chicken oh and also let's just take away a third of the gravy so you run out 3 tenders in. Oh almost forgot let's forget English when receiving an order then rush them away when they're taking inventory. -bush's chicken read more

This is the best fried chicken in the Cedar Park area. The food is fresh and the service is good. Two thumbs up !

We are very pleased with the price and taste of the chicken. The service is almost always friendly and quick. We did have one manager with an attitude the other night, but, that was only once. Otherwise this is a great place to pick up a quick family dinner. read more

Fried chicken, better than KFC sand Popeyes, for that I give you 5 stars. You can get 6 strips a side and a biscuit and maybe a drink for $9, great deal. Get it read more

Bush's Chicken - Cedar Park - Fast Food Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

See all

Their toilet hooch mac & cheese tastes like it has play-doh in it. Never ever eat that stuff.

We've been eating here since my child was born 7 years ago and she loves this pace. Quincy is her favorite person and while she loved getting a "chicken roll" she has now graduated to eating a full size meal here. The sweet tea will give you a kidney infection haha and the food is always freshly made. We always kid that they don't have free ice-cream like the "other guys" but we come here anyway! They do however have single servings of blue bell icecream!! They go through TONS of gizzards and livers so they must be good. The place is super clean and they have awesome customer service. We've enjoyed this hangout long enough to know that they have a set a high bar for employees to maintain and they do! read more

This review has to do with the service; I don't know what some of their employees are trying to prove but two of the last three times that I have been there the waiters have passed my car up in the drive through and gone to the car behind me or gone to the car in a lane farther over in the drive thru; both times I have registered a complaint with the manager on duty but I don't think that it has made much difference as evidenced by the most recent occurrence of the practice. Therefore I will never return to this business nor will I recommend them to any other persons. Billy T. La Porte, TX 77571 read more

Best chicken in the area. They don't cook it to death, it's a golden color crust that juicy and tender on the inside. You can have all those super dark crusted fried chicken...I'll take Bush's read more

I've had Bushes Chicken twice... Both times the chicken was nice and hot and a light golden color. (Shows they don't use nasty old grease.) The mashed potatoes were good and okra was great. I'm usually not a big fan of Sweet tea but even that was Great! read more

They are back to their original iced tea. Back to buying my jug of unsweet and my wife a jug of sweet every Wednesday during happy hour pricing.. We even buy a bag of their ice! read more

This is by far my favorite fried chicken place in Texas. The skin is always super crispy and not greasy. They have a seasoning salt that is also very very amazing on the fries and chicken. This is a fast food restaurant so why talk about service? It's faster than normal restaurants and its not upscale or 5 star Michelin service experience because, well, it's FRIED CHICKEN. Great flavor-great crunch-get the dark mix if you don't know what to get: you won't be sorry. read more

I've been coming here for years but I swear the tenders are shrinking. Went tonight and they were all so tiny. Not sure if the 6 pc is worth 9.99. The iced tea was sour tasting. I'm sure it wasn't old tea because they sale lots of iced tea here, however think the containers needed cleaning because they will make the tea sour over time. read more

This has become our go-to fried chicken place. It's right around the corner, prices are reasonable and they do a lot of fundraising for the area schools. Luckily, the fried chicken doesn't destroy my belly here either. It's really good! Well, we like it. The cats do too. Ordering is really weird, you pull up to the signs on the wall then a car hop takes your order. It kind of hearkens back to the days before we yelled into boxes (long before MY time, but movies you know). The kids taking orders and running the food are always super polite and just great kids. This is on my short list for cheat nights. read more

Best fried chicken I have ever had. Good service, friendly people who come out to your car with a smile. Gizzards are my favorite, delicious. Chicken is hot and fresh. Sweet tea is the best also. My problem is trying to think of something I don't like there. Oh they support the local schools too. Good gravy and rolls too. I could go on and on. read more

22 minute wait in car for someone to even take my order. Meanwhile four other cars who arrived after me ordered and got their food. System with three drive thrus obviously does not work if employees just randomly go to cars to order without knowing who has or has not been helped. read more

What a precious gem of a place within a few miles of me....and I thought I was going to have Top Notch withdrawals when I moved to Cedar Park! Great drivethru...love not screaming through a box not knowing if the whole restaurant is cringing and my high pitched tone. NIce to have fast service and multiple staff to personally take your order. The Manager obviously runs a tight ship with all of these local country teens that work there. Good bunch...and well now I saved the best for last...the chicken is amazing! Bread, omg...buttery puffs of heaven! Nothing like a pile of the yummiest chicken tenders ever to bring home for dinner...kids think they're eating candy! We devour them! Chicken amazing too...not greasy and always fresh tasting! Great Job Bush's and congrats on being the best! read more

Very friendly service but the chicken was bland as was the Mac n cheese. I probably would not go back because of the food. Too bad since the service was great. read more

very bland and over priced. I am glad I had a few packets of cajun sparkle in the utensil drawer to salvage the money I had wasted by not just going to popeyes. I was very surprised that they market the yeast rolls as their prize item. Maybe that should have been my first que to steer clear of the chicken. read more

It's really embarrassing, but my husband and I had a Bush's chicken problem for a month or so. The proximity to our home didn't help. This is literally the best friend chicken I've ever had, and I'm Southern, baby. The sweet tea is amazing, and the food is always fresh- never tastes like it's been under a heat lamp. For the price you just can't beat it- and the service is swift! read more

This is probably the best restaurant I've ever been too, this kid was working at the register, he had brown hair and he's skinny, he was the nicest and got my order in perfect conditions, I gave him a really good tip by the way, he needs a raise for his good service! read more
