Hancock is a fun spot to get some fried chicken and enjoy their outdoor space. Nate and I love to…read moreget a "drink and a snack" to share, and Hancock has a perfect option for this during their happy hour: two sliders and a boozy slushie for $12 (or a n/a slushie combo is $9). They also had $1 chicken tenders during happy hour, so I ordered six - they were a bit smaller than I was expecting but at $1 each it's a great deal. The tenders were cooked well - crispy on the outside and juicy inside. I'd rank Hancock's chicken tenders in my top 5 in GR. Other food options include sandwiches, wraps, a burger, bone in chicken, sides like pimento mac and cheese, and their jalapeno cheddar cornbread. They also have a vegan option (seitan patty). I love the hot spice level, which isn't super spicy. Their boozy slushies are refreshing and tasty, and they usually have one or two rotating flavors. The patio has some yard games and space for groups. There's metered street parking available.

This is my favorite fried chicken place in the area, hands down. It's always perfectly crispy with…read morejuicy chicken meat and each bite is perfection. We ordered the hottest chicken sandwich, which in my opinion had great flavor but I wouldn't say it's overwhelmingly hot. The jalapeño corn bread is deliciously sweet and moist. Pair it with their butter, that's chef's kiss. We also had an order of the chicken and waffles. Honestly, I think the waffles might be my favorite thing on the menu. It has this caramelized top layer that provides a satisfying crunch with each bite and it's as dense as a piece of cake. Highly recommend. It's a cute little restaurant with a darling outside, perfect place for lunch or a summer night. The service is always top notch.

This is my go-to ice cream spot in Grand Rapids. I've heard good things about the food, but have…read morenever tried anything other than the ice cream. I am a simple lady and love a good twist cone with sprinkles and their soft serve is just superb. I have been to most of the ice cream joints in/around town and I have often run into the issue of the soft serve being TOO soft and melting quickly. I don't know what they are doing, but their soft serve is always so creamy and firm. It's a hit every time and we will literally drive past other spots to go here when we want ice cream. There is quite a bit of seating if you choose to stay there, way more than others in the area. The staff are always polite and helpful. I've never had a miss here!

The lines have been super long but Nate stopped by one evening to grab us a three tender meal. I can't speak to the drive through experience as I wasn't there, but it seems pretty efficient and they have a couple lanes. The three tender combo is about $10 and the tenders were quite small. They were pretty crispy, especially for coming from a drive through 20 minutes away, so I was happy about that (previous tenders I've had from Raising Cane's were soggy). The fries were still warm and seasoned well, and I personally enjoy crinkle fries. The Sprite was crisp and they use that good pebble ice. I personally don't care for Texas toast, so I wish they had an option for more fries instead of toast. Overall it's a decent chain but not something I really need to go out of my way for.

Not a big deal They also only have packets of ketchup and I love ketchup so I was hopping for a bottle. I will return and try again.

It seemed pretty popular as a couple of people had placed orders before me and were waiting for their food and then they were a few people after me as well. It does take a while for you to get your food, though. I was willing to wait. They did mess up my order and gave me a barbecue chicken wrap instead of a buffalo chicken wrap that I ordered. I feel like this may have thrown them off maybe not but my chicken was way over sauced it really took away from the flavor of the chicken itself and I'm pretty sure I don't even know if there was any blue cheese because all I could taste with sauce. The jalapeño poppers were meh and they didn't really have a special sauce that comes with them. I am surprised they didn't do anything to make up for messing my order and making me wait longer. I may give them another shot but will have to request that they only put a little sauce or on the side.

If I can get a whole rotisserie chicken at Costco for $5, then why does it cost $17 for 3 little tenders and 6 boneless wings? I understand that the restaurant industry is tough right now and ingredients/labor aren't cheap, but by virtue of the price alone I'm not sure if Wing Kingz will become a regular spot for me. Price aside, the flavor was phenomenal. The seasoning station is truly a thing of beauty. And the woman behind the counter was kind and courteous. All in all, a great spot for some great chicken. A little pricy but certainly worth a visit.
