I do love a good chicken sandwich. What stands out for me here is that Flip The Bird uses a hearty white meat chicken breast for their sandwiches. It's juicy and tender and made to order. The OG is almost like a chicken cutlet style fry in it. Less crunchy but still awesome. Loved the pickles and ranch on it. The potato bun is soft and pillowy. The Cry Bird lives up to its name. Ghost pepper sauce and lettuce. The sandwich comes with a warning and set of gloves to eat it with. Free refills on soda, even though it's behind the counter. The staff didn't mind the refills even after a few trips up because of the Cry Bird spice. I was happy to finally try this place. It's good that I don't live closer, I'm a sucker for a great chicken sandwich. I would be here daily. Staff was so awesome. They were nice and definitely customer focused. There are about 6 or 7 tables inside. It's counter ordering. Be prepared for your order to take 15 min to prepare. This is fresh food, not fast food. Ample parking in the shopping plaza.

Chicken tenders with honey mustard and fries

Great location. Staff were friendly. The chicken sandwiches and tenders were great. I really liked the honey butter. The Nashville wasn't spicy at all. The fries were okay. I would like to try a spicy sandwich. I feel like the place is lacking good side options besides just fries.

Went for lunch today, my brother's treat. Got the spicy Tennessee sandwich. Larger breast than Dave's hot chicken. Was a little messy but that's OK. Was spicy but not overly so. Place was well run& clean. Food came out quickly. Overall a very good fried chicken sandwich!

Kitchen and some seating

I had an appointment close by and it was getting late so I finally decided to give this place a try. I didn't want much but also wanted a variety (I know, lol but I like options ). Considering the restaurant is known for their chicken sandwiches, I decided to try their 'OG' but instead of it being fried, I requested it be grilled. Let me tell you, RUN, do not walk! This chicken sandwich was one of the best I've had in a long time. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and made daily, if not more frequently. The bun, pickles and 'ranch' sauce all complimented the chicken perfectly. Now on to the rest of the order, I ordered a side of French fries and it comes with few different types of dipping sauces, I chose truffle ketchup, which was delicious. The fries sadly were not my vibe, too salty and too hard. I also ordered the biscuits with the honey butter (up charge $1.50 for the butter). The biscuits are huge but also really hard and crunchy exterior and soft interior but without flavor. The honey butter actually lacked a key ingredient, the honey... it was rather a warm whipped butter with cinnamon, save your coins. Honestly, I could have done without the fries or biscuits. Go to a place where they are know for biscuits as this was not it. I will def return but will just stick to the variety of chicken sandwich's and maybe try one f the other sides they offer. Atmosphere - clean, ample seating and free parking!

Missing half my order. And it's not the first time this has happened. Quality is slipping. No phone number to contact the restaurant.

Delicious food, good portions. Chicken is great, lots of flavor. They give you a good portion of fries, and our order was done very quickly.

Had the best lemonade I've ever had in my life. The chicken is also extremely good. One of the best fast food kind of restaurants I've had.

As far as a spicy fried chicken sandwich goes if your into that, this one is top of class. Work your way up to the Cry baby sandwich...ouch!

Amazing! We've gotten takeout multiple times and the chicken is still crunchy and the bun isn't soggy at all.
