    Chicken breast and fries
    Tomas H.

    I have Driven by here many times and wondered how it is. Well today I stopped and man I'm happy. Very good and hot chicken. Got 3 pieces 2 legs and a breast and fries and some Fried okra. The seasoning was good and everything was hot and fresh. I may pick this over Rudy's chicken for now on.

    Two of my lovely thighs!

    Chicken House has been a favorite for many years. I have a Popeye's and a Golden Chick within walking distance of me, but I can't be bothered with that nonsense. I make the 20 minute drive to Chicken House whenever I get that craving. The best chicken is when they first open but consistently good all day long, super crispy and nicely seasoned. Last time I was there I ordered ice tea. I really only drink unsweet tea but I really wanted something to drink and the only other options was sodas (or maybe water, I guess). Wow, this was the best sweet tea I have ever had. So strange but I will order it again.

    I've been curious about this place for some time, even when it was Brother's Chicken. Last night after happy hour I was feeling a little hungry. There aren't many drive-through options driving down Gaston, so I was prepared to make something at home. But then I saw the OPEN sign on the Chicken House so I made a quick turn to the drive-through. Ordering from the drive-through proved to be challenging, as the person taking my order didn't understand me, and I didn't understand him. I went ahead and pulled up to the window and ordered from a sweet lady. After taking my order, she asked me to pull around, which drives me nuts when there's no one behind me. But whatever. I ordered the chicken finger basket and it took forever for it to come out (pro-tip: call ahead). Finally home I enjoyed the chicken very much. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The gravy was good, although it didn't taste homemade or anything, but that was okay with me. The two pieces of white bread were a nice addition as well as the fries. The fries were greasy, but they tasted gooOOOd. If I'm ever in a pinch again for fast food I'll remember Chicken House for a future visit, fo sho!

    Entrance to drive through is on the right side of the building (north side)

    Hot and delicious fried chicken at a great price! Super fast and friendly drive through service. Got the chicken dinner with 2 thighs for $5.25. Came with fries, 2 slices of bread, some pickles and pickled jalapeño. They even have a cheaper option to get chicken by the piece, which is what I'll do next time, cause the chicken is so good, that's all I need!

Today, I had a doctor's appointment nearby and looked forward to a return visit. Unfortunately my food was disappointing. I ordered 3 eggs, cinnamon roll and coffee.

However, the cinnamon roll - which is the reason I came here - was tasteless and very stale. I won't be back. I can get coffee and average eggs anywhere. If they are serving stale pastries, the place is no longer special.

I will give that a 4. The Black Eyed Peas Peas wore horrible. Black Eyed Peas needs to be slow cooked and butter needs to be added to the pot to make them creamy. Yeah I rate them a zero. The Brussel sprouts were the star. I don't know what they did to them but they had everyone wanting more. Yes they get a 5. Total rating 3.4 Try it for yourself you may like it.

She spent the majority of the night standing against the wall and came across as rude and passive-aggressive, especially as we were preparing to leave. This was a noticeable contrast to Ozzy and Terrance's hospitality. The "Cowgirl Dinner" was enjoyable, but the service issues were disappointing, especially as returning guests. Overall, we appreciate the team members who made an effort and hope management addresses the concerns regarding Taylor's attitude.

During my second visit, I tried the Bitter Lemon Soda, which was also very good--simple, refreshing, and without any overpowering flavors. I actually enjoyed The Bowen House so much that I went twice during my weekend trip to Dallas. It has an almost speakeasy-like atmosphere, with low lighting and a cozy, historic feel. It's also in a very walkable area, which made it easy to visit on foot. There is some parking available, although I would say it's somewhat limited. I don't think it would be the best spot for a very large group, but it would be perfect for a few friends getting together. I also appreciated that you can order a drink while waiting for a table or bar seating, which made the wait feel much more enjoyable. Overall, The Bowen House was one of my favorite places I visited while in Dallas. Between the atmosphere, welcoming service, and well-crafted drinks, it's definitely a place I would return to the next time I'm in town.
