Consistent quality time and time again. The food is a bit on the more expensive end but it is well worth it. My fiance and I always split a meal and are sure to add on the sweet potato fries. While living in the city, we try to find reasons to venture out to this location when we drive back from the northern suburbs. Sometimes it can take a minute for your food to come out, so we try to order ahead for pickup. They have some outdoor seating and a garage style window/door for the indoor dining during the warmer weather. read more

Clucker's Charcoal Chicken - 2350 Salad, Sweet Potato Fries, Peanut Slaw - Chicken Wings Near Me - Highwood, Illinois

I've always seen the distinctive Cluckers car/truck bopping around and finally stopped in on a weeknight for dinner before a show at HPHS. My companion is vegetarian and had a variety of options. We ordered at the counter and picked a table. I ordered the grilled salmon with cornbread and green beans, and my companion had the chili. Chili was a large portion and she enjoyed it. The salmon had grill marks and a charred taste and was cooked well. It was the first day it had been on the menu, I would order it again. Green beans still had a bite to them which was exactly what I wanted. Mushy green beans are unappetizing. Corn bread was sweet. With lots of events at HPHS in my future, I will definitely be back. read more

Super disappointed in this place. We had previously tried the Libertyville location and had a not so great experience there, that we were given a gift card to make up for the disappointment. We finally decided to give them another shot at their HighWood location and I can say, we will probably never eat there again. It wasn't the food, it was more the service. So we ordered our family fest for dine it. The restaurant wasn't packed, but was occupied with a good amount diners. We weren't given enough silverware, so we requested more and got handed a basket with silverware. I went to place it on the table and it laid unevenly, so I lifted it up and found what looked like a black rubber stopper. After inspecting it more, I realized it was a rubber chair foot covering. How the hell it ended up on the table, I don't really know, except I'm pretty sure it was stuck onto the bottom of the basket that they gave me. Regardless- how unsanitary. How was something that should be on the bottom of a chair, make its way on top of a table?? And when I brought it to the attention of one of the workers- he "apologized" like it was no big deal. By then I had already lost my appetite. It made me question the cleanliness of the place... never again.... read more

We dined in at Clucker's. We sat inside by the open doors and it seemed like a storm was going to crack open at any moment. We stayed nice and dry and I enjoyed a Chicken Lasagna (special) that was filled with shredded chicken and layers of melty cheese. It took a little longer for my dish to come out vs my companion's salad, but it was worth waiting for. It also came with two slices of very tasty garlic bread. read more

This has beeb on my list to try for awhile and we finally did! On a cold Saturday afternoon the place was empty. You place your order at the count4er ,find a table and your order is brought to you. The restauraunt was a bit cold and each time the door opened a burst of cold air filled the place, making it uncomfortable. My husband had the chicken tacos. Three generous tacos, filled with chicken and topped with pico de gallo, cheese and salsa. He would have liked cilantro sprinkled on top. It came with beans and rice. I had the Half a Clucker, chicken with cornbread, sweet potato and cole slow, The chicken was charred which added to the flavor and it was moist and tender . The chicken was excellent. The food was very good but the rest of the experience was ok. The restaurant was a bit worn and gave the impression of not being overly clean, service was ok and the experience was underwhelming. read more

First off, heads up that you order directly at the counter when you walk in, and then you can pick any spot you like it's a pretty spacious joint with plenty of seating. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout, which is always a plus. A small note on the drinks I was a bit bummed they were out of a few things I was looking forward to, especially the pineapple, Jamaica, and even the peach tea. I had my heart set on that pineapple drink. But let's get to the good stuff the food.You absolutely have to try the BBQ brisket sandwich. Seriously, it's out of this world, way better than anything I've tasted at other local BBQ spots. I'd definitely recommend it over the chicken sandwiches, though those are decent too. And don't even think about leaving without getting some mac and cheese it's deliciously creamy and a total winner. I also tried the Cajun chicken sandwich with a spicy kick. It was good, but the spicy was just okay not as fiery as I'd hoped and the taste was not to good. Next time, I think I'll just stick to the original version. The roasted beet apple salad was delicious and highly recommend with grill chicken. Overall, despite a couple of minor drink disappointments, the food was genuinely fantastic and I had a really great meal. Definitely worth checking out. read more

The food was good and fresh. The chicken was cooked with perfection. The potato chips are made on site and crunchy as can be. We were greeted and seated promptly with our food in hand within six minutes This restaurant offers outdoor or indoor. It's a very nicely decorated place, which is very fresh and clean. read more

Clucker's Charcoal Chicken - The photo is the unique ordering area. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Highwood, Illinois

Clucker's rotisserie chicken is delicious, juicy and tender. The brick chicken is more spicy - there's a little heat in the seasoning - but not too hot, just enough to keep things exciting. And once I dipped it in some pesto sauce, the sweet-savory tango began and before I knew it I had eaten more than I planned and was tempted to drink the rest of the sauce. Y-UM. I had a sweet potato for my side and it was the best sweet potato I ever had! I don't know how they prepare them (maybe steamed?) but I didn't need to put anything on it and it was perfectly tender. So full I didn't eat the cornbread muffin or much slaw. Good snacks to take home. Casual, warm, welcoming vibe, with touches of rooster whimsy. High ceilings and airy with the large front doors open. It's open seating with 2 outdoor seating areas. You walk up to a counter to place your order and they give you a number to take to your table and they deliver your food when it's ready. They also bus the tables. Hard working and attentive service. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Though we've had Clucker's delivery a couple of times, this time we tried eating in the dining room and found it to be im-peck-able. It's just a joint, of course, so if you're looking for fine dining, you're basically clucked. We wondered about it being open to the street on a very hot and humid evening but the air conditioning kept up and we were comfortable. The food is basic chicken (note the name) but it's good and the pot pies are terrific. One drawback is the clunky ordering at the front counter but, when there's an experienced person at the register I'm sure that generally works just fine . Overall a very pleasant dining experience. read more

This was a Yelp recommend stop for lunch and didn't disappoint. We were greeted promptly and had the menu explained. I asked about the Cluckers sauce and was promptly brought a sample with homemade chips to try. It's a honey mango sauce with the slightest spice on the finish. A little too sweet for me but delicious and unique. The portions are huge so either go really hungry, plan to share, or plan on at least one if not two meals of leftovers. The half a chicken ain't no skinny little thing! We have enough chicken to make some chicken salad with the leftovers the hubs and I brought home. The Mac and cheese and rosemary red potato sides were equally hearty. The brick chicken I got was super crispy and fall off the bone tender. My hubs got a side of bbq sauce which had some kick but we loved it. However honestly the chicken didn't need anything. It was perfect by itself. It reminded me of chicken vesuvio with the lemony notes and seasoning. read more

Was it a sign that we should get some mothercluckin' chicken after seeing the brightly colored catering truck drive by us 3-4 times as we enjoyed the Highwood carnival prior to dinner? LOL. Clucker's is kid friendly, as they have kid menus and crayons for entertainment. I'd say there's about 4-5 kid meal options, like chicken tenders, Mac and cheese, and sandwiches. It also comes with a drink. Note to my future self: just get the kiddos water next time vs Sierra Mist bc they were preeettty hyped up after consuming more than enough of it. Think the vibes of little kids dramatizing late night drunkies in the backseat of an Uber: excessive giggling, talking 2-3x the necessary volume, and goofy shenanigans and nonsensical gibberish. Onto the food! I was underwhelmed by the Cajun chicken sandwich, mostly bc it was quite under seasoned and was overall just bland and one note. The cheese and sauce didn't contribute much to it. Me trying to be healthy that night opted for the side of grilled veggies, comprised of bell peppers and squash. The runaway highlight is the side of homemade chips! Yum! It's the stuff dreams are made of... crisp, perfectly salty, and thinly cut! Staff is friendly. Interior is open. Glad to have tried it, but this chicken will cross the road for another dining establishment next go around. read more

Stopped here during a visit to the Nashwood Fest. Ordered the plant based Cajun Chicken Crisp sandwich. Is was absolutely delicious with the peanut cole slaw. I would highly recommend this place. Excellent food and service. UPDATE: I called and found out that this is made with soy protein. So sad because I really loved it but can't have soy due to previous health issues. If you can eat soy protein then I'd highly recommend it. read more

Loved the nashville hot chicken sandwich! Was so hot but not a lingering one. Would def go back

This small but clean restaurant offers a wary traveler a fine selection of food. I was a first-time visitor. The potato chips were freshly fried and arranged in a flower bouquet shape. The two-piece chicken with bean soup looked mighty tasty. I had the chicken pot pie with side salad. There were generous chunks of chicken with simple seasonings. At the ordering station, the rotisserie chickens were slowly roasting or heated. I generally do not order juice, but I am pleasantly surprised that the pineapple juice was tasty. The staff were not wearing masks and were friendly. read more

Clucker's Charcoal Chicken - Call this a Cluckers chicken?!! Looks awful. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Highwood, Illinois

We think they do a really good job on chicken. Especially good is the "Brick" chicken and the peanut cole slaw. I am particularly fond of the "sloppy" chicken sandwich. The bbq chicken version of a sloppy joe. We have only ordered takeout so I cant comment on the ambience or service. read more

We love it here! The food is always consistent, staff is friendly and they don't mess with a good thing (chicken)! It's a busy spot with eat in and patio seating, which is nice. I wish the bathrooms were more clearly marked, other than that, no complaints! read more

This place is absolutely superb. Their chicken is soooo moist and tender. I kid you not, this is the best chicken I have ever had. I love the twists they put on their dishes. Also, amazing staff read more

Did take out here on a weekday for lunch during covid. This was our first time trying it and so I did an order online ahead of time. They have an outdoor area which is fantastic and some parking in a small parking lot however there is also street parking if you were lucky enough to find one. I know this place has been here for a while but this was our first visit and I would definitely come back to try the broasted or rotosserie chicken but unfortunately only comes at a certain hour of the day. The quality food is definitely on a higher level. The portions are fair the pricing is a little high however appropriate for the market of Highwood and considering that it is feeding Highland Park Lake Forest and the North Shore. Please keep in mind there are so many competitors out there for broasted chicken roasted chicken rotisserie chicken and fried chicken at this stage and there are competitors not only for quality quantity pricing but also how far you're willing to drive. read more

First time we were here. It was very good. We arrived and the place was virtually empty. We started to worry we were not at a good place, Within a short time, the line was out the door for pickup orders and to be seated. Everyone liked what they ordered except my grandson didn't like the mac n cheese. I thought it was delicious. He prefers Kraft, this was more gourmet and delicious. read more

I had a salad and it was DELICIOUS!! Very clean and the workers were nice. Good quality chicken read more

I am giving 5 stars because cluckers excels at what it is! Fresh clean tasty food with fun chicken shaped delivery trucks or a cute clean dining on premises. I would always take the grand kids here or order for them. I feel like the fried chicken is cleaner and less sodium than fast food while other food items are fresh and healthy. read more

Our whole family craves Cluckers salads, Beignets (chicken fingers) and chicken tortilla soup - in our regular rotation once a month or so.

Decent freshly prepared food. Will definitely go back. Recommend it. The chicken actually tastes like chicken.

What's all the hype about? It's rotisserie chicken. I ordered the chicken soup(it was good ), chicken fingers (too much breading), Mac and cheese just okay. Their lemonade was delicious. I don't know the rotisserie chicken just isn't worth it in my opinion, I'd rather pick up a Whole Foods Rotisserie chicken it has more flavor- for less $$. The ambiance is pretty nice, clean and modern. I love their retractable windows. Their patio is nice and inviting over the summer. Service always friendly read more

I love this place. The lemon chicken is amazing and the chicken wings are the bomb. I really enjoy eating here by family because there's so much good food. If you're in Highwood, and you're looking for a really good piece of chicken, this is a must stop. It's also pretty cool to see the trucks drive around town with the chickens on top of them. read more

Had a taste for some chicken & remembered Cluckers! I went with the Chicken Beignets and was surprised at how many came! Love the shape. The flavor of the breading is nice. Not too heavy or light. Not spicy, just flavorful. I'm picky about bbq sauce so I just ate them plain and they were perfect! read more

Clucker's Charcoal Chicken - Cajun Crispy Salad - Chicken Wings Near Me - Highwood, Illinois

What a great place for great chicken on the north shore. I've passed this restaurant more times than I can count and finally decided to come in and give it a try. The space is nice, big and inviting. There are plenty of tables and the windows are big in the front, they open on nice summer days. We ordered the half chicken- with rice and beans side, the chicken Caesar salad, chicken tenders (4) kids meal, the Mac and cheese kids meal, corn bread muffin and a slice of berry pie. Each kids meal came with a drink and the Mac and cheese even came with a good sized portion of chicken. The chicken was juicy and tasty! Very very good and flavorful and and added bonus to be able to dip it in some delicious charcoal staple sauce- which is pretty much a honey based sweet sauce. The chicken doesn't need the sauce but it definitely tastes great with it. The pesto sauce was also good, good flavor. The Mac and cheese was a big portion and the tenders came with fries. The salad portion is very generous and there is ample pieces of chicken on top of it. The corn bread though I thought was a bit too dry for my liking. The slice of pie was good, crumbly and the right amount of sweetness, not too sweet at all. Will definitely be coming back to this place for more chicken. They have a lot of items on the menu to try as well. But the chicken is definitely the star here! read more

My food was absolutely delicious and one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. My mom rated the 2350 salad highly, a 10/10 in her words. My dad got the wrap and described it as hardy and he gave it a solid 9/10. Keep in mind the portions are HUGE and we did bring home many boxes. However, the service was not up to par. The food did not come out at the same time and my dad's wrap ended up taking 15 minutes longer than the rest of our food. The chicken beignets came shortly after. The ambiance was great, not busy but not empty and the tables were clean. The bathrooms have lights that are motion activated so when I was in there they did turn off without warning and I had to reactivate them by walking in front of the sensor. Although the service and ambiance weren't five star worthy, the food, in my opinion, outweighs the minor inconveniences these issues were. I recommend coming and it was very delicious! read more

I got pulled BBQ chicken here recently, and it was pretty tender and flavorful. My fiance liked his steak sandwich (I thought the char taste of the bit I tried was overwhelming, but he was a fan). Proportions are quite substantial! What reduces the star rating was the small bone I found in my pulled chicken (breast). It was pretty gross! read more

This place is amazing. It is right in the heart of Highwood, and well worth the drive from anywhere you come from. It has amazing chicken and brisket. The dishes are a good size and affordable. The manager is SO nice as well as the whole staff. It is conveniently placed so you can shop and then head over. read more

We were just looking for a satisfying and family-friendly lunch after a trip to Fort Sheridan, but we got way more than we bargained for here. The chicken is of course grilled and delicious and you can get it in a variety of satisfying ways -- chopped up in a sizable caesar salad, in kebabs with vegetables, or served with corn tortillas and a nice tomatillo salsa, among other things. We also ended up with an immense amount of food and so we had almost another meal of leftovers. I used to live near a place called the Chicken Hut, and this is everything I always wanted that place to be. read more
