    Garlic Parmesan wings and Mac and cheese
    Ramona P.

    I stopped at this little gem for a quick snack. It did not disappoint at all. I got the garlic Parmesan wings and a side of Mac and cheese. The wings were cooked just right. I cannot stand soft wings yuck...and these wings were cooked to perfection. I was so satisfied that I forgot to order cheesecake before I left. I sat outside on the patio and my view was peaceful.

    Soo I found this cute little spot on Yelp in Downtown Memphis when I googled Best Chicken and Waffles in Memphis (It's kind of hidden) but it's a great lil gem; and it was Delicious . We had a great experience, The ambiance is very welcoming and the place is a little small but very cute and cozy. They have Amazing food, the Herb Chicken it's my favorite along with the Mac&Cheese (it's awesome gooey goodness) and Collard Greens. The service was great as well, the Staff here is extremely friendly and made great recommendations. We will definitely be back soon....

    Pecan Praline Tenders & Waffles

    What a fun find! Passing thru Memphis and staying at a hotel 5 minutes away. We always like some Chicken & Waffles, so we gave it a try. Wife had Pecan Praline Tenders & Waffles - super sweet and delicious. I had the Drumstick Snack with Waffle - and it was amazing. We also got their skillet collard greens - fantastic. Fortunately we were in town on unusually cool August evening - so we sat at an outside table and it was lovely. Very limited seating inside and out - so if you have more than 4 seating could be an issue. Really great food - we enjoyed it.

    Food was excellent. I ordered the caramel pecan crusted chicken tenders and waffles. My hubs d ordered waffles and Mac and cheese. Everything was delicious and it's priced reasonably. Will definitely come back every time I visit Memphis.

    Chicken and waffle. Stupid good. I ain't gonna lie about it.

    Ok! Ok!!! "They" said the best wings in the city. I know! I know! "They" hard to find. Buy y'all they ain't lying. This chicken wing. This one. You need this in your life. Little hard to find out here on Tennessee street. But well worth the trouble. I ordered the 5 whole wings and waffle. I'm telling you it was stupid good. You know how the whole wing has that worthless tip you can't do nothing with? Well if you don't put that tip in your mouth before you throw it away we just can't be friends. Don't waste none of this flavor. Looks like I found me a new stop on my Memphis food tour for my friends out of town. Oh and the waffle was amazing as well. Do yourself a favor and make your way on over here. You will thank me after I promise.

    The waffle pizza!  A must try!

    I tried the waffle pizza and words can not explain how good this was! I have not experienced anything like it. It was excellent!

    Me & my friends & the owner of this quaint restaurant with the most delectable dishes.
    Huzzah V.

    We were on our way home and found this quaint restaurant. Me and my friends tried the Praline Pecan Waffles, the mac and cheese and the chicken salad. My taste buds came alive. The owner was gracious and proud of his menu and that was refreshing. Tip: get a piece of the cheesecake for dessert.

    I have been wanting to try this place and finally did when we didn't really have much to cook at…read morehome. I didn't notice a phone number on here or thru google, so it was a bit of a bummer to not be able to order ahead. However, I think I only waited about 10 mins for my somewhat large order once I placed it. My family and I shared 2 of the 8 piece tender combos. We were impressed with just how large the tenders are. You're definitely getting your money's worth. I think my family of 5 could've actually shared the 12 piece combo, coz we have plenty left over. The chicken reminds me a lot of Gus's in the way that it's cooked, but the flavor is definitely different. I wouldn't say it's bursting with flavor, but there are definitely some unique spices. The chicken is SO juicy, and it's not spicy, so it's easy for kids to eat. The fries are really good too--nice and crispy. It's a really small spot, so while there's tables to sit and eat, maybe not so much for a huge crowd. I wanted to include some pix of the menu, coz prices have gone up since the last ones were posted.

    Small little chicken place. Everything is made to order so it does take a little while to cook. The…read morechicken has a great flavor and is super juicy. We really enjoyed it! They have several different seasonings that you can top your fries with. While I liked the crunch of the fries, I wasn't a super big fan of the sour cream and onion seasoning. It's kind of like popcorn flavoring at the movies. The owner was super nice and helpful. Give them a try if you are in the area and like fried chicken with a perfect crispiness.

    What an amazing, welcoming staff! I found myself getting in late to the hotel nearby and this was…read morewithin walking distance. Even after I ordered and was sitting there waiting, a few different people asked me if I was taken care of. I'd go back just for the hospitality. The wings were out of this world delicious! They were cooked perfectly and were cooked whole like the old days. I ordered 5 wings with a drink and fries (I chose sour cream and onion) and everything was delicious. I had a side of Memphis Hot for dipping and it paired will with the cajun dry rub (which had a nice kick to it as well). I mean look at those things! Seriously, look! They were starting to clean up a bit as it was close to closing time, but assured me I didn't have to rush. Great wings, Great Service and Great locations (in proximity to my hotel, anyway).

    We be crazy not to visit the Coop! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was on point--clean,…read morecolorful, and full of life. Shoutout to the security guard at the door who was more than just friendly--he was the hype man! He told us the food and drinks were on point, and he was not lying. Honestly, he deserves part of the tip because everything he said was facts. Drinks: Let me tell you--Amy and Yasmin behind the bar did their thing! The cocktails were packed with flavor. I tried the Main Street Marg and the Bad & Boozy, and both were perfectly balanced. The drinks alone are worth the visit. (See drink pics & menu for the full cocktail list!) Food Highlights: Wings (4 flavors): We ordered Cajun, hot, lemon pepper, and jerk. Each flavor hit differently but equally delicious. Fried Catfish & Grits with Gouda: Creamy grits paired with seasoned shrimp and gravy--Southern comfort at its finest. Now $24 bucks it should be at least two piece catfish or large one piece. Fried Okra: Crispy and tasty, though slightly over-fried for my taste. (Peep the food boards and that creamy shrimp & grits plate--chef's kiss!) Decor & Atmosphere: From the murals to the portraits of legends like MLK and Otis Redding, the space was visually inviting and warm. The open kitchen and moody lighting added to the vibe without feeling too dark. (See the artwork, dining setup, and the golden kitchen lighting in pics.) Pro Tip: They close at 9 PM--even on Saturdays. So don't wait too late to pull up! Overall, Crazy Coop lives up to the name--in the best way. Great food. Great drinks. Great people. Can't wait to come back!

This looks like the first franchise maybe. Need to read up on them. The wait is over now though! It looks just like the other one on the inside with bright colorful logos and beautiful pictures of fried chicken. I've been to the KCC on Stage many times but it's really out of the way for me. I need a reason to be in the area other than fried chicken. I do love fried chicken but an hour round trip drive for lunch is tough. My fish store is around the corner from this place so I now have new Bartlett food options. Yay! I stopped in eager to try their tasty chicken. It did not disappoint! They cooked it to order as it seems they do with every guest. They wait is 15 mins or more but it's so worth it! My chicken was steaming so bad you can see it on video. I love this fried chicken!! It's got a particular spice involved that I am not familiar with and cannot place it. I know that I love it though! It's so crunchy and still light. Great job!! Just lovely I wished the sides were better. They offer several but I haven't had one that I liked yet honestly. The Mac has changed a lot but has never been good. The mashed potatoes are weird with little uniform potato cubes in them. No on the slaw for me. The fries are the safest bet in my opinion. The meals are super cheap though and they all come with a cookie and a drink, so there is that. I usually just throw away the cookie. It's trash. Next time I will tell them to keep it. You get 2, 3, or 4, etc pieces and can name the pieces you want for no charge (I think). If you tried 4 breast they may balk at that, not sure. Solid place that will be on my regular rotation from here on out. I may just start buying the chicken in bulk and just eating it. I think I will be happier that way. '25 - 52/111
