I've been to Chicken Housr several times since I last reviewed them, and waited to write another review until I felt comfortable that a five star review was really warranted. I'm happy to say it is! My only complaint in the past was that their version of 'country seasoning' was an overabundance of salt and pepper. The last few times I've had chicken and dumplings they were the best I've ever eaten. Thank you, Chicken House! In addition, the fried mushrooms are craveable. Simply delicious! Service is always pleasant and efficient too, and the dining room is well cared for, nicely decorated and spotless read more

This is a place my parents really enjoy and the service is always better than I see other places. They have incredibly large portions as well so if that's important to you it's happening here. This is also a coke establishment which is important to a lot of us. Honestly? I love their French fries. I don't know why those are hard to accomplish for some but I'm always really happy with them here. read more

We had our Brotherhood Luncheon with 21 present. There was another party of almost the same number. It was a little loud with that many people, but I think everyone was fine with it. Tonya was our personable and professional servers and did a great job. It appeared everyone enjoyed their food. I ordered the BIG salad with grilled chicken. I once stuffed myself eating it. This time I didn't do that, but took almost half home and finished it later. It is a very nice salad with different lettuce, cucumber, hard boiled egg slices, tomatoes, etc. Others had chicken, fish, onion rings, sweet potato fries, pork chops, and more. We always have a good time in the private room. I have dined in the open dining area also which was perfectly comfortable. They added a four seasons room outside and apparently building something else. I can't wait to see what the finished addition is. They put in some wonderful, extra parking in back. This is one of our favorite places to meet at for food and fellowship. read more

The food is always on par here at the Chicken House. If you want good comfort food, this is the place for you. I've had livers, gizzards, tenders, fried chicken bone-in, onion rings, greens, bluegill, codfish, fries, and coleslaw. It is ALL very tasty. The service is always top notch. We've had several different servers and they are always good. Chicken House is always crowded at the normal times, so expect a wait. We have gone a little later 8:00pm or so and get right in. read more

Met a friend here for Friday lunch and was shocked at how busy this place happened to be on this particular day; however, we then remembered it's Lenten season and the Friday fish special is bluegill. We arrived at noon and both had a heckuva time finding parking spots in the ample paved lot, but eventually succeeded. There are large parking lots located on both sides of the building accessible from the 2 cross side streets. Building is accessible for those with mobility concerns. We approached the hostess stand and opted to be seated in the large dining area near the main entrance, but also noticed smaller dining rooms and outdoor covered patio dining areas. A separate takeout order hostess stand is located near the entrance, as well as assorted food items (preserves, jams, jellies, etc) for sale. My friend had a grilled pork chop and 2 sides, which she declared to be very good. I ordered the chicken liver platter with Cole slaw and greens, which was a giant serving. It happened to be 1 pound of livers and I took the bulk to go. (I wish I had requested gravy, if available.) Our orders also included yeast rolls and real butter, which were fantastic. My order was only $16 and easily will be 2-3 meals. Service was attentive and especially amazing considering how busy it happened to be when we visited. read more

Who knew? Chicken House has been serving up fried chicken since 1830. So, if you come here looking for steak, all you'll find is chicken fried steak. In fact, if you're looking for healthy food, you're in for a disappointment. Most everything is fried. Fried chicken. Fried chicken livers, fried pork chops, fried fish. But if you're up for some homestyle fried chicken, you've found nirvana. I ordered a fried chicken platter. Good lord, 5 pieces of chicken (breast, 2 thighs, drumstick and wing). The platter comes with 3 sides. I went with fries, German potato salad and green beans. Toss in a yeast roll and you've got a lifetime supply of carbs. And cholesterol. Fortunately, I took 3 pieces home. My wife found the one dish not fried (other than a salad). A grilled chicken breast meal. And, no surprise, Chicken House doesn't know how to grill chicken without drying it out. Service was excellent. Particularly for such a busy joint. Casual. Loud. This is no place for an intimate conversation. But if you like fried chicken, come n get it! read more

This place rocked. A bit outside Louisville. At a crossroads with nothing nearby. Fried chicken and cold beer. On a Friday there were locals but the bar room and bartenders were friendly and nice and the fried chicken I drove 30mins for was delicious. I was stuffed and still kept eating. Yeast bread. Corn. Green beans and good cold beer and lovely chatter. Yes please read more

Well, it's a ride from east Louisville to sellersburg area but how unique. Been there 75 years. Seat yourself! Opens at 11a....PACKED!! If you go between 130p and 2p, you will probably enjoy a little more. Food scrumptious if you like chicken....or blue gill on Fridays ONLY, only served between 11a-3p. In my 70 years of dining, I felt like I was at an Indiana Catholic picnic, less the passing of the bowls. Been years since I have tasted a fried chicken breast like this one. An extensive menu of how u can order this chicken, white, dark, fried, grilled, livers, gizzards, etc. Not on the menu, you can order just one or 2 pieces of chicken. That was me...a fried breast, green beans and mustard potato salad...about $10. I think some of the dinners had 5 pieces of chicken!!!! The parking lot is hilarious. Holds umpteen cars but no lines!! There again, no lines at those church picnics either. But here you u have pavement, not grass. And then there are desserts. They have a little shopping area.......cakes, pies, cookies, all homemade plus jams and jellies. We opted for a jar of the no sugar added apple butter and could not pass up their chocolate chunk cookies....about $1 each. I'm told we missed the boat not ordering the banana pudding. There will def be a next time....on a Friday about 230!! And they don't run out of fish. read more

Another nice visit to the Chicken House for fish this time. Had the fish dinners for both of us! One with German coleslaw and other with green beans. Service outstanding and food was great! Decent beer choices and prices. If you haven't been try for a unique experience! read more

We've been to The Chicken House a few times now and have not been disappointed. We live about a hour away so it isn't often but yesterday afternoon we had to be in the area around 4:00PM and took advantage of the opportunity. This was one of the first times I've seen the parking lot not full there. I assume it was because the time was between lunch and dinner. Because the fried chicken is so good I can't really comment on anything of the other entrees the menu, because I always get the chicken. I had the chicken with the loaded potato salad and green beans, while my wife had the chicken with mashed potatoes. The dinners also come with a dinner roll. Everything was great. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and came out hot, fresh and juicy. The Italian style green beans were very flavorful, with small pieces of diced bacon. The loaded potato salad (bacon and chive) was very good. I sampled my wife's mashed potatoes and they were good too. The dinner rolls are large and very good. I wish the butter they provided was softened a little more as it doesn't spread at all, even with the roll being warm. My only disappointment was that we wanted the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer, but they were out. It happens. I heartily recommend The Chicken House. read more

We always have great service and the food is always good. My high school alumni and several friends of mine eat there quite often. Love the food! read more

Great service and food. This was our second visit. Last time we had fried chicken. This trip we specifically went for the Blue Gill fish fry. Both visits we ordered chicken livers, also. Everything was very good. Service was fast and cheerful. We drove from Indy to meet friends and we were't rushed into leaving. All in all10/10 on all counts. read more

Ate there today after many years absence. Figured best to get the Deluxe white meat meal. Server brought two chicken breasts, and three wings, along with three sides. Order came rather quickly, and I soon figured out why. Chicken breasts were very dry, and obviously had been cooked earlier in the day. When you are named the chicken house figure that would be the best thing to order. Let's just say if I want chicken again that wouldn't be on my list of places to go. Best of all, was not asked how my meal was. Don't figure it is my job to complain, just exercise my right to choose where I spend my $$. Hard pass on going back. read more

Food selection could be expanded upon. Friend Green Tomatoes or Buffalo Chicken fritters, is a start. Ambience is Excellent. Pricing is excellent. I would highly recommend to stop hammered Chicken, naturally prepared would be better option. Loved the spicy cheese curds, BBQ Baked Beans, and excellent coleslaw slaw. If the Chicken were not beaten, the coleslaw on a Fried chicken sandwich would be an option. A little creative cooking goes a long way for this restaurants longevity. A Professional Chef could be a real plus. Otherwise, Service, Ambience, and Pricing are Excellent !!! read more

Wifey and I joined another Veteran and his wife for dinner. Sandy was our friendly, attentive server. The Chicken House had a buffet for Veteran and spouse for free. It was jam packed, but service went smoothly. I saw other Veterans I know here. It was fun and the food was fine. read more

Chicken House - From the buffet - Chicken Wings Near Me - Sellersburg, Indiana

Chicken house in Sellersburg. I ate there today ! The service was quick and even though there seemed to be 50 cars in the parking lot! The servers were quick and very accommodating when I told my waitress it was my first time. I drove around 90 minutes to get there because I drove past last year after eating some very bad Mexican food. What I smelled driving past, made me want to "give up" the bad food I had just eaten and go in to eat at the Chicken House! The fried chicken was very good. Two sides , mashed potatoes with white gravy, very good, and not to discredit anything else, my other side was green beans. They were the wide flat green beans with bacon , and ,,, some kind of magic flavor that I really loved ! I ate most of the green beans first then , they also included a split top muffin bread maybe made in a muffin pan? Served with real butter! The bread was cooked perfectly and a hint of sweetness. I used that to soak up my green bean juice with butter!!!! Left very satisfied. I will return when in the area and try the pork chops that were also recommended. read more

Chicken House - Fried chicken - Chicken Wings Near Me - Sellersburg, Indiana

We have ate here several times over the years, most recently we ate dinner there 2 night in a row. The wait can be a little long, but the atmosphere is casual laidback country and the food is incredible. The fried chicken is second to none, tastes just like grandma made it. The sides are all homemade in house and are fresh. Don't even get me started on the yeast rolls. This place is one of Southern Indianas best Restaurants. When it comes to Fried Chicken, don't even think about going any place else. The pricing is comparable to any place you would go out to eat at. People don't waste time going to Starlight for Chicken, the best is right here. read more

This place is in the middle of the country. We pulled in and the parking lot was full. No wait though for our party of 13. Our server and all the staff was so friendly. It's in what seemed to be an old farmhouse. So cute. The food was southern at its best. I got the fried chicken two thighs and a drumstick. For sides mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans. All so delicious. The green beans were perfect southern style (not steamed and crunchy). My husband got smoked bologna sandwich with pimento cheese on top. My cousin got an appetizer of fried mushrooms and was talking about how good they were so my husband tried some and said they were the best mushrooms he's ever had. Highly recommended. read more

Worth the drive from Louisville to a bustling country dining restaurant between Sellersburg and New Albany. Lots of tables (some booths) and a bar attached. They pride themselves on the fried chicken which my better half fully enjoyed. I could hear the crunch from across the table but he said it was no way close to being dry. The portion satisfied him as well. I started out with the hand breaded mushrooms that I saw so many tables of people munching on...WOW...I was surprised at how delicious they were. Followed up with a hand breaded pork tenderloin. It would have been better if I hadn't filled up on the mushrooms. The tenderloin breading was a little salty for my taste...but it was fresh so points there. Our waitress was the nicest lady and checked often enough but wasn't a pest. A great bonus was they have Big Red and if you know...you know! This will be the go to for us when we want some country cookin!!! read more

I finally tried something other than all the chicken options which are always good.You need to come at lunch on a Friday. No other restaurants that I know of offer bluegill fillets . It brings back memories of catching a stringer of bluegills as a kid and getting to eat them for dinner that night. Such a great change I'll be back for more when ever I can talk myself into not doing the best chicken liver's and gizzards. read more

This little place STAYS packed full, but for good reason! Delicious chicken, homemade sides, fast and friendly service, and you'll be in and out in no time - assuming you can find a spot to park! We live close and order carryout here often, but occasionally dine in. Their menu has huge variety (fried green tomatoes, fabulous deviled eggs, traditional Hoosier pork sandwich, etc, etc!), and everything we've ever ordered has hit the mark. Today I ordered the 5 leg dinner with 2 sides and a roll, and it's sooo much food for only $11. Will be a lifelong patron here for sure. read more

Everybody I've talked to loves it. I ordered gizzards for take out. I couldn't eat them because the black pepper was overwhelming. The next week I just ordered take out chicken. Again way over peppered. The next time I go I just won't order anything fried. I will say they have delicious yeast rolls. And their chicken and dumplings are good. The staff was great and the service was fast even though they were busy. I will go again. read more

The food and service is always good at the Chicken. The managers always stop by to check on how everything is going.

This restaurant has a great reputation locally and I can say confidently that it lives up to its hype! I placed a large carryout order and it was finished at the specified time, everything was correct, and the food was delicious! In particular the chicken and greens were amazing! The prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are good. For old school local residents, the chicken here is the closest I've had to what Southside Inn used to serve. The menu has so many options, so I look forward to eating here again and trying more great food! read more

UPDATE: We've been back. You really just need to know what to get here. Obviously the friend chicken is good as are the rolls. The lobster ravioli was decent but could use less ravioli. We've had the meatloaf special which for some reason that night with the mashed potatoes and green beans had WAY too much black pepper. I've also had the chili which is ruined by jalapeno peppers. Peppers should be on the side not overpowering the chili. The chili would be pretty good without them. read more

Food was good and there was plenty. Yes the chicken is good but so are the livers. Cheese curds are a good option for an app they do have a little bite to them. Service was excellent as always. Ambiance is much better and updated. read more

I think I'm in the minority here, but I thought the fried chicken at The Chicken House was just average. I much prefer the chicken at Bojangles, for example. I found this fried chicken to be drier and less flavorful than I would like. But I'm eager to try more things on their menu. I was impressed by the sides, as well as our pretzel and beer cheese appetizer. Our service was also quite good. So I'll definitely be coming back and trying something different. read more

We ate lunch at the Chicken House today. Friendly staff and delicious food. I had the 1lb of chicken livers they allowed me to split 1/2 livers 1/2 gizzards, both came out hot fresh crispy and flavorful. My daughter and granddaughters shared the 2 lb. Chicken livers. My husband had the 2 thigh and a leg dinner. We ate until we were all full and still had a bunch of leftovers. The inside of the restaurant was bright and open. Historic menus and photos were arranged on the walls. There is a slight fee for using a credit card so you may want to bring cash. read more

These include more chicken dishes that are great. Now, they also have many other dishes that are great too. The sides though, are outstanding! The cucumber salad, mashed potatoes, the spicy cheese curds (with Thai chili sauce), chicken and dumplings, creamy chicken noodle soup, potatoes salad, baked beans, and more are awesome! Great place! read more
