    Onion rings
    Stephanie L.

    Dive bar ambience in the middle of Sun Prairie. Big crowd even on the weekday, shoutout to the bartenders who keep up with everything from taking orders to serving drinks. We got 3 different flavors of wings to try: original, dry rub, and bbq. Bbq and dry rub were good, but original tastes like buffalo (pretty tangy and spicy). Wings were not as crispy as I thought. Onion rings were delicious. The foods took a while to get out, so expect to wait or just chat with your friends.

    This spot serves up the best chicken in Dane County--hands down. Made to order, perfectly crispy, and packed with flavor. But let's talk about that blue cheese... I dream about it! The chunks of blue cheese are amazing, and it's easily one of the best I've ever had. The breading and sauces are on point, and I love that it's a hole-in-the-wall kind of place--clean, cozy, great service and giving small-town bar vibes with top-tier wings. A must-visit for wing lovers!

    Original wings

    I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon. This place was really busy. Original wings had excellent flavors. Chicken poboy was my favorite item here. Waffle fries and tater tots were both really good sides.

    My son and I came here for a late lunch to check out this place that has been on my bucket list for a couple of years. I am sad to say that I haven't come here sooner! The wings are absolutely superb, and we loved the buffalo, however, we wished we would've asked about the original sauce before ordering. It seems that it is a housemaid, spicier version of the buffalo - which we would have appreciated! Ranch was good, seemed like it was homemade. We didn't try the buffalo but apparently it's liked well enough to sell it by the pint! My rail drink was $2.75 during happy hour, which was cheaper than my son soda! Heavy pours, and super friendly Bartenders round out a great experience! I can see why it expanded to a chain! Sometimes there's no reason to have an extensive menu if what you do is really good. Chicken licks is no exception to that rule. I cannot wait to bring back my husband For happy hour! Also, my son and I were truly digging the old school jukebox that still plays a variety of music for $.25!

    Wow! This place has the best wings let alone homemade blue cheese. Service was outstanding. Can't wait to come back in again- best dry rub ever

    Chicken Tenders
    Emily D.

    We had takeout from Chicken Licks and the food was just ok. The fries and onion rings were good, but the tenders and wings were nothing special. I can't comment on service as we didn't eat in. I like the dive bar vibes, so I would love to go back and try the food again!

    Buffalo wings done right
    Raymond S.

    Where are the best wings you say? This is place. Do t look any further. Order them original which is Buffalo and dry rub together. Great dive bar vibes!! Get the tator tots with dry rub. You won't be disappointed. Homemade blue cheese is the bomb doggity.

    Are they taking to-go orders for chicken wings during Covid-19?

    I believe they are closed and remodeling.

    Looks like a great place with the big log frame. Something about it says it should be great…read more Went after a soccer game, not too many people were in the place, about 8 at the bar and 3 tables in dining room. I'm not sure if they were under staffed but they seemed confused so no host was there and we kind of just stood there for a while. It took awhile but we were eventually seated. We were then seated. I believe the name Micheal was our waiter. We asked about drinks, not much in way of craft beers. So old fashioned,a Yuengling, a coke and apple juice. Granddaughter said apple juice was good! Friday night fish fry, what do they have? Catfish, walleye and cod. So we ended up with 2 catfish, a walleye and a cheeseburger. 1 catfish with fries and side salad. 1 catfish with baked potato and side salad 1 walleye with baked potato and side salad. Burger and fries. It took awhile for salad plates to come, it was A salad bar. Very basic salad bar, they are glad I didn't take pictures because the salad bar looked weak, not so much with topping but the lettuces looked old and barely enough for the 3 of us. They brought the burger, walleye and 1 catfish plate. Gave walleye and catfish to wrong people; we said I we think you have wrong people, they said no. You can kind of tell a catfish filet from walleye. He asked me to cut into my fish to tell the difference; he then agreed they were mixed up. My catfish had baked potato instead of fries. He said I'll get you the fries, I won't charge you for the baked potato??? Kind of strange response- why would you even think that. So we ate and pretty much done eating, my fries arrive. Oh well! He was gracious enough to say we gave you a few extras; my side didn't look any bigger than another guest portion. We enjoy hitting Wisconsin dive bars and usually they have great food! Actually the fish was good, but portions were small, 1/2 filet each for what we paid in my humble opinion. While we go back to revisit other past places while we are here, I very much doubt we will be back here. Maybe we just hit an off night since I see other positive reviews.

    Service was excellent. Dining area could have been warmer. Place has been in business a long time…read morebut the lack of cars or customers should have told me to leave.. that and the dark parking lot. Ok i ordered spaghetti. It cane with chili or a salad. I took the chili. Tbe chili was excellent. But the spaghetti and meatballs was disappointing. Tastes like spaghetti o's without the circular noodles. So my recommendation is if you like chili check it out. Hard pass on the spaghetti although the garlic bread was good. Maybe bring kids for spaghetti if they like the taste of spaghetti o's. I noticed they have a fish fry - maybe that would be good. I had high hopes. Maybe everything else is great. I was the only one eating at 7pm so i think that might indicate otherwise.
