The food is just so so and isn't really better than many of the other fast casual places around. We had to send a quesadilla back because they use sliced roasted chicken which we don't think belongs on a quesadilla. The bowls on the menu aren't really bowls. They are just small plate salad so I would suggest they rethink that. My husband thought that brunch buffet was a good value. I do like the idea of having an outdoor concept like that. Just wish that there were some areas like that in DFW with multiple restaurant options. Overall a decent spot to sit in Grapevine if you're stuck at a baseball tournament for a few hours. read more

We had never tried this before, so we decided to stop by. The first thing I noticed was that it is huge! Pretty cool concept with playgrounds, pickle ball, dog areas, etc. I also noticed how FILTHY the inside of the actual restaurant was...this was a huge turnoff honestly. There were bugs and garbage everywhere. They have loads of staff, yet nobody cleans tables or floors. Kind of weird. It was generally kind of chaotic and once again just absolutely DIRTY. I ordered the chicken and waffles. It was kind of flavorless, and a small portion of chicken in my opinion. Overall very sub par. Seems like a cool place to hang out and drink or play pickle ball, but I wish they'd up their game on their food, service, and cleanliness. Just my two cents. read more

What are two things I like? Eating good chicken and playing pickle ball. This is my second time visiting a Chicken n Pickle (first time was in San Antonio). Even though the pickle ball was fun and the food was great I want to talk about the service first. Everyone was so nice from the very start. We walked in and I didn't realize I dropped my dog's bed. They found it and kept it safe until I came looking. Also our waitress was so helpful, I asked for the NKC hot chicken sandwich but I wanted it to be much spicier. She took my request and ran with it. I was so happy with my meal and will definitely go again! Lastly, they were so nice to my dog and the shaded picnic tables with mist fans kept him cool, I'm so grateful. read more

Chicken N Pickle- Grapevine - What a cool place - New American Near Me - Grapevine, Texas

Tasty food , really bad service , cool ambiance. I wanted to ask the cashier a few things about the menu which she kept interrupting me for my card to open the tab, okay, ordered a salad with rotisserie chicken and my husband sweet potato fries and strips. It was so hot indoors( almost like same as eating outside) we had to eat quickly and leave.All the tables by the bar dirty and the staff members all in one corner chatting, no sense of urgency , we had to ask to get a table cleaned to be able to seat and eat. We'll probably be back. ( please keep the flies outside, they were all over the salad bar, which looked like dog food ) read more

Great for big groups or events! Pickle ball courts are so much fun and there is a ton of indoor and outdoor space to hangout, eat, or play yard games. They have a nice selection of beer, cocktails and food to choose from. The outdoor pizza kitchen was closed when we were there on a Monday night, but they still had a lot of other options and attentive service. Yard games included badminton, massive battleship, Jenga, and more! I highly recommend trying it out read more

First time playing pickleball and it was very fun and not too hard! If you've played tennis this is very similar to that but with different a racquet paddle and ball and rules. It's not difficult to learn if you are new since the court is smaller then a tennis court and it's easy to just practice passing the ball around too. There were many kids and families there playing pickleball and even groups of friends and/or couples. I would say 1 hour for 4 people is a good amount of time to play if you guys just wanted to experience it and play without getting too tired out. The service was good and friendly. There were tons of staff members everywhere and getting food and drinks were easy. The staff always come around to check. The place is very big and there's tons to do there other then pickleball. It's all open seating and there's many different little bar areas to drink at. They even have a little section for dogs so you can bring your furbabies too. Make sure you reserve the courts online before coming because they fill up quickly. And if you have your own paddle boards and ball it would be cheaper to not have to rent those. I believe it's about $40 an hour to rent the court and additional fees for the paddle boards and ball. They have hh mon to fri 3 to 6. Check out all the menus online. Food was good but nothing too special. It's just typical bar food that's good to munch on. Mainly this place is good because it's so big and there's other stuff to do so it's good for bigger groups of friends and family. read more

This place is big! They have several pickle ball courts, outside and inside. Battleship, cornhole, jump ropes, hula hoops, fooseball tables, shuffle ball, and pickle pong. (Think oversized bear pong without the drinks in the cups.) The outside pickle ball courts always seemed to be in use, so I recommend reserving a court. I didn't check out the indoor courts so I couldn't tell if they had all been in use as well. Inside they have 3 bars that we saw with the potential for more as we didn't play pickle ball during our visit, so we didn't check out the indoor courts areas. When you go inside they ask if you are just getting drinks, food or both. We had opted just for food on this visit. In that case they direct you to the food service counters where they take your order at the counter. Once you order they give you this brick that has a number and gps location so they know where to bring your food. The main room is super loud. I recommend sitting upstairs and possibly one of the side areas that may not be as loud. The only complaint I have about sitting upstairs is they didn't have a soda fountain for refilling sodas or water up there. I'm sure you could ask a bartender at the upstairs bar if you don't want to run up and down stairs. The food was good, the stand out was the Tres Tostadas. The chicken sandwich could have used a bit more spice, but the person who got that got it without the slaw, so there's a chance the slaw has some sauce or peppers in it to give the extra kick he was looking for. Fried pickles are good here and the cookie dessert is similar to other places cookies in a skillet dessert. They had been out of waffle related items so the person who wanted to order chicken and waffles ended up not being able to get that. They do get busy during game days because it's a decent place to hang out to watch the game. read more

I was pretty intrigued by this place when I saw it being built. I've never been to one, and I wondered why it was such a huge building. Well, now I know! We hit up Chicken and Pickle on a Friday night, and even at 5pm it was already hopping. Lots of people having fun playing games in the courtyard, families and friends hanging out. It was a very fun and chill atmosphere. When we walked in the front door we were promptly greeted and directed to the food ordering area since we weren't interested in any games at that time, just food. The ordering process is simple and basically like any fast food joint. You wait in line while checking out the menu overhead. A good amount of options to choose from, but not so much as to be overwhelming. We got fried pickles and a chicken sandwich (you have to, right? It's in the name!) as well as tots and some brisket mac and cheese. I loved my chicken and tots, and the pickles were outstanding. Straight up some of the best I have ever had! I personally wasn't a fan of the mac, but my husband loved it, so just personal preference there. The servers wandering around are super attentive to your needs, and we never wanted for refills or anything else. Be sure to tip, those folks are working hard for the money! We've been back once since our first trip in order to enjoy the Sunday morning brunch, which was very, very good. The only downside to that visit was an extremely large group of people that had TONS of young children that they were not interested in properly parenting. The kids were throwing things, constantly screaming, running around, and generally causing a ruckus. Not exactly the recipe for a relaxing Sunday brunch. I got the impression they are regulars on Sundays, so we probably won't be back for that. We actually ended up moving to an entirely different room because I couldn't take the screaming any more. :( I didn't take away any of my score for Chicken N Pickle because clearly that isn't their fault. read more

Chicken N Pickle- Grapevine - Chicken sandwich with tots, fried pickles, beets, and mac n cheese. - New American Near Me - Grapevine, Texas

Came here last week for chicken and pickleball- mission accomplished! We reserved courts 2 weeks prior (we knew spring break would be crazy). We were in a large group and ordered various meals before playing- all were good sized portions and tasted good! The food came quickly. We sat in a large booth with a cool neon sign behind us- our our of town guests loved the atmosphere of the place. The staff checked on us frequently. Definitely reserve a court online before coming! We love this place and it's cool to see how much pickleball has boomed. read more

**This is mainly for the food as I didn't play pickle ball while I was there** This place is HUGE. You order up at a station where there are some app options and mainly sandwiches (some others too, but that's the main gist). It was cold tonight, so we stuck to the indoor space, but lots of outdoor seating and activities as well! I got a burnt ends sandwich and Birdie's biscuit for dessert. For a bar/game type place, I thought the food was pretty good! I would go back here with a group when the weather is nice. Tons of lawn games and pickle ball courts to enjoy. read more

So much fun!!! Variety of free games to play if pickleball isn't your thing (though I'd recommend to anyone) and the food was surprisingly delicious. PLUS- $6 margaritas all day everyday- this is a no brainer. 10/10 recommend chicken tinga tostadas and carnita quesadilla! Service was awesome and vibes were very relaxed. read more

First timers here! We met friends and brought our kids and this place was great! A bustling lunchtime with people playing pickle ball outside, and we enjoyed a cool, casual lunch inside. You order your meal via counter service and they have staff frequent your table to take your drink orders or provide refills. Our family ordered the rotisserie chicken, chipotle chicken bowl and the bbq Mac and cheese bowl as well as a side of broccolini and deviled eggs to start. The food was surprisingly delicious! I loved my rotisserie chicken, it was well flavored with the jerk seasoning and I got the mango habanero sauce on the side. Both were good choices. It came with a tortilla, and it was tasty as well. My hubs loved his chipotle bowl and said that it had a kick to it, which he loved. The kiddo really liked her bbq Mac and cheese, so all around a win for this group. We will definitely come back and perhaps try our hand at pickle ball while we're there. read more

This place was fun! The food was just okay but my boys were in heaven with all of the things to do. They played corn hole, giant Jenga, and on the playground. We want to go back and try our hand at pickle ball. The service was great and food came out fast. I'd recommend it if you're looking for somewhere fun to go with the family. They also have many bars if you're in the mood for a drink. read more

Super fun concept! As someone who has never played pickle ball I wish someone was there to teach us the basic rules of the game as my group just passed it back and forth. We were on an outside court and it was pretty hot but not horrible, they do a good job at providing water. The food was mediocre. I think they should have a more efficient ordering process such as QR codes at the tables to order through. The line gets very long. The chicken was good but kind of basic. read more

We will definitely be back. Cool hang out spot. read more

This location needs new management! The general manager Tony was very rude and confrontational. He did not want my business vehicle being parked outside, in the half at back of the mostly empty parking lots. Instead of kindly asking me to move it, he came out with 4 other men, approved me and yelled that I couldn't be there. Felt profiled and demoralized. Said I was taking his customers parking and when I told him I'm a customer that's just treated 10 people to and rented a court for an hour, he did not care. After my friends left 10 Minutes later, I went inside and asked to speak with him and was lied to that he went home for the day. Management needs training on friendly customer service and communication skills! read more

First time here and won't be coming back. I rarely post bad reviews because I always give people the benefit of the doubt, and I know people have bad days but this was the worst place I've ever been treated. We ordered a couple of drinks from the bar, ordered lots of food to share from near the kitchen, and paid our bill with a generous tip even though the food was cold when it reached our table (except for the desserts). The servers were very friendly and great. Could not say that about the bartender and manager. The manager came up to tell us and said this was our last round and to tab out. When we asked the waiters why, they said they were not given a reason and the manager just told them not to serve us. When we were leaving, the bartender had a server run after us and demanded that we were leaving without paying the bill. We talked to her and told her we did, she checked and told us we could go. We were the only table with all people of color and we felt profiled. When we went back to ask why they treated us like this, they said they did that to everyone. They did not stop anyone else but us. When we told them that there were other tables being loud and disruptive but never questioned them. They finally apologized for their mistake and gave us a gift card that we will NOT be using. Never again will we come here and I will be spreading the word. They are not kind to people of color. I have never felt profiled in my life. read more

I usually love chicken n pickle but Jeffrey made sure I never want to come to this establishment from the moment I walked in completely ruined my experience seems like he was having a bad day and taking out it out on customers I really don't know how someone like that is in employed at such a nice establishment on top of that what was supposed to my kids bday party he really made sure they never forget this experience for all the wrong reasons thanks Jeffrey great job read more

If you're looking for a way to kill a few hours painlessly with kids, this is a great spot. The food is fine. We did brunch and everything was decent (but lord have mercy someone spilled salt in the grits). I also felt like they needed to turn over the buffet more. My whole crew was happy though, and even though most of the courts were booked out, there was plenty to do with ping pong, foosball, giant jenga, and a playground. read more

I really wanted to like this place. If you are only going for the pickle ball and outdoor entertainment you should disregard this review. If you are hoping for decent food or cocktails this isn't the place to go. I'll start with the shareables. We ordered the Elote Mac and Cheese and the Chorizo Queso. The Elote Mac and cheese had about 12 kernels of corn, very little cheese and so much arugula that it permeated every bite with bitter notes. The queso lacked any flavor or heat and was just okay. For $10 I expected more. I ordered the 1/4 dark meat chicken with Jerk seasoning and was warned that it was their spiciest seasoning. I said that was just fine by me. Then I ordered the mango Habanero chutney and a Verde sauce and was informed that they were the two spiciest sauces they have. The very nice young man then said "You must really like spicy things." I do like spicy things. Not over the top, numb your tastebuds spicy... but if I get something spicy I want a little heat. Well, I can't say the chicken didn't have flavor. But spicy it was not. Like not even a little bit. And the most pungent flavor was sour. I will say that the chutney had a little heat to it which was a pleasant surprise. But for $10 I got a glorified chicken wing, one giant Tortilla and 3 strips of avocado. Again, I expected so much more. Especially for a place that has chicken in the name of the restaurant. Lastly the cocktails. I had the cactus pear and pomegranate Margarita which was just okay. The mango Jalapeño Margarita was AWFUL. I mean I had to power through that thing. The server laughed with me when he saw my face but I told him mama didn't raise a quitter. I was determined to finish it. It barely tasted like Jalapeño, almost no mango and a horrid bitter/sour flavor. All in all a very disappointing experience and sadly I won't be returning. read more

Food was good for the concept. We had multiple items to taste and the best were the tator tots and chorizo queso. My 1/4 white was just tad dry, but with queso it was divine. We didn't really get service being seated in bar, lots of staff but guess that's for running drinks to courts. It's pretty much self serve as I had to keep going to bar to get a drink. However, the young lady at food register when ordering asked if I had an open tab, which links to the bar. You don't have to cash out each time that was nice. Great building and tons to do. It was packed. Ambience is cool, good for families and such. read more

A huge place with many seating options both indoor and out. Being first time guests we were directed to order in line and that it was open seating. The line at 5:30 pm was very long and moved slowly. They seemed to have many staff in the kitchen which is good. There were several private parties there and even still plenty of seating. For the price point of food and drinks the food was hit and miss. The flavors are good but some entrees not very hot once they arrived. We did enjoy a dessert biscuit which was large enough to share. Due to how long the line was I couldn't imagine getting back in line just to order a dessert so the dessert came at same time as our food which wasn't ideal due to the ice cream but what other option do you have? Some of us got pickles on our plates, some did not which was strange. Anyway, not sure we will be back as it was just ok for us. read more

Food portions are generous and Happy hour drinks will make ya happy! It was early afternoon, light crowd though great music and service.

The service was a bit of a mess. We spent a lot of wasted time who pays, why it cost more than what was quoted on phone, why it took over half an hour just to pay when courts were empty (3 at the time). Need to rethink the experience. This business will likely not make it unless changes are made. read more

Overall the space is incredible! Pickleball + lawn games galore. Great music. Excellent service. My only feedback is the rack of ribs were dry and overly seasoned to the point my lips were on fire - also had no bbq sauce. And when I asked for BBQ sauce, I took one bite and immediately hated it! It wasn't classic Texas BBQ sauce at all. In fact, I got hints of celery flavor in both the ribs and BBQ sauce. No. Just no! The French fries had zero flavor or seasoning. For the price, it was disappointing. That said, I remember the Grand Prairie location having way better food. So give them a week to work out the kinks. Otherwise we had a blast! read more

The food is consistently good and the staff has been great! I LOVE that once you create a tab, it follows all over the facility and you can tab out anywhere. The only negative so far is that if you want to play Pickleball, you've got to make reservations WAY in advance. They should have built a 2nd floor of indoor courts. We'll be going back many times in the future. Waiting for a loyalty program. read more

Their name is CHICKEN and pickle but tonight miraculously there was no chicken. What a joke of a place . Waiter was as stiff as a 2x4. I was going to get a bunch of things for us to share at their special " Holiday celebration " that required reservations at a 2 hr minimum. I tried to order deviled eggs, wings, fries,etc.. They waiter comes back to us " I'm sorry surrrrr we are out of deviled eggs." Ok no problem. He leaves and comes back a couple of minutes later "I'm sorry surrrrrrrrrr we are out of chicken wings." So I didn't eat but my wife opted for their rotisserie chicken salad. In all my years of dining and working in restaurants I have never NEVER EVER seen anything like what they brought her. They put a whole leg quarter BONES AND ALL in a dish covered in lettuce. That had to be one of the grossest plates that I have ever seen. You might as well close that kitchen and fire your manager , because neither has a clue as to what they are doing. There was a bar upstairs in our area as well but our friend ordered an Old Fashion. It took quite awhile for it to arrive because it didn't come from the bar that was 5 ft away from our couch. Instead it was made downstairs , because I watched a girl carry it from the ELEVATOR to our table . This place Ilis badly mismanaged. Needless to say we didn't need the 2hr time cap that was put on our seating. We couldn't wait to get out of there!!! read more

Came back for lunch and had the chicken NKC Chicken sandwich again. Based on the first experience, this one was much better. Great sized chicken breast, crispy and very juicy (slaw a little thin). This was a great experience, except the sweet potato fries; crisp at first, then they became lame. Came back again with a friend, had the Pickled Chicken sandwich. Not bad but I think the chicken was a chicken cutlet rather than a chicken breast. Little on the thin side for me but overall was pretty good. Chose to go to the tater tots and they were much better than the sweet potato fires. Overall experience was much this last time. Staff friendly, clean, nice family or group gathering place to play pickle ball, eat and drink. read more
