The food was very tasty. We ordered the nuggets, tenders, and fries. I will say that they give a lot of fries, and it is very yummy for their shareable option that comes dressed up. The nuggets were good, and we got them "hot" for our spice. The tenders had a different level of heat for each tender, and I think the hottest flavor is just unbearable lol. Good to try though! The cashier was very friendly and cheerful, so I would give the service a 5/5! The ambiance was pretty nice as well, and I enjoy the fact that they have a soda fountain for free refills! read more

Fry The Coop - 30 ct nuggets, fries, and tender plate. - Fast Food Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

i'm sorry in advance for this long paragraph. tonight i decided while running my late night errands and place a quick online order at fry the coop before they closed (i haven't had it since last summer when i was home from school). I ordered my usual sandwich, an og spicy butter with NO pickles (i am allergic) , cut in half, and add a side of coop sauce. I placed my order at 9:31. believe me, i worked in food service and i understand the frustration of people ordering 30 minutes before close, but it happens‍. i have had this happen 1 occurrence before where they didn't remove the pickles after i stated verbally i had an allergy. (which is why ever since i did pick up orders). I received my food stapled (i have never received my food stapled in the past). and i can admit it probably was my fault for not ripping the bag open in my car and checking before i left, but i figured since the bag was stapled i didn't want to ruin the bag while i carry it and other items in the house. once opening, sandwich wasn't cut and my side of coop sauce was a side of pickles :/ very disappointed, especially when on the ticket it says the instructions clear as day.. my sandwich was still good, but i definitely won't be returning. read more

Fry The Coop - OG SPICY BUTTER and unwanted pickles - Fast Food Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

BURNIN' DOWN THE HOUSE This popular chain serves top-tier hot chicken, but be warned: their spices are absolutely scorching. When I first heard that Fry the Coop was coming to our neck of the woods, I was ecstatic. Many years ago, I discovered the magic of their Nashville hot sandwich and it was love at first bite. Flash forward a decade and Bolingbrook now has their very own FTC on the corner of Lily Cache and Weber Rd. The original Nashville chicken sandwich ($11) is the obvious choice, but don't sleep on the spicy honey butter chix sammy ($11.75). If you're down with a fork-and-knife affair, the Messy Fries ($9.25) are a good value. Their seasoned house fries ($4) are very tasty. Other sides include mac & cheese and potato salad. A 3-tender plate w/fries is $12.50. For comparison, you can get 2 tenders w/fries @ Dave's Hot Chicken for $12.50. The same 2 tender combo w/fries @ Burnin' Mouth (inside Yorktown Mall) is only $9, and you can get a 3-tender combo w/fries & drink for $11 at Slim Chickens. Fry the Coop is pricey, but not outrageous. I recently found out they use six different spice blends for their hot chicken. You can pick from 'country' (paprika), 'mild' (cayenne pepper), 'medium' (habanero), 'hot' (ghost pepper), 'crazy' (Trinidad scorpion), and 'lil insanity' (Carolina reaper). Based on my experience with the eye-watering potency of Level 4, I assume Level 5 will send you to urgent care. Level 6 might kill weaker humans. I've never seen or heard someone order 'lil insanity', but I know it comes with a waiver and staff ask "are you sure this is something you want to do?" Let that sink in for a minute: they use habanero peppers in their MEDIUM! At most other places, habaneros are treated as an apex pepper, something not-to-be-exceeded. I can't wrap my head around the fact that there's two levels BEYOND 'hot', which should be called "Ambulance Ride" and "u died, bro". * TL;DR * I've loved Fry the Coop for a while now, and to have them ~this~ close by is probably a curse as much as it is a blessing. The quality is unmatched, but it's difficult to justify dropping $11/sandwich plus another $7 for fries + drink every visit. The chicken is succulent -- whether in the form of sandwich or tenders -- and their proprietary blend of spices is otherworldly. Fry the Coop's heat levels do not play around, so I strongly recommend choosing a grade below what you'd normally order. Once they coat the food in their wicked seasonings, there's no going back. Order happily, tread carefully, and have a glass of ice water ready just in case. read more

The Lil Insanity spice level definitely packs a punch, but it's not the hottest thing I've ever eaten. I paired it with the Nashville, and the combination was incredible. The coleslaw balanced the heat, making it much more manageable. Honestly, you can't go wrong here.The food is nicely done and absolutely worth it! The place is super clean as heck which is truly appreciated! read more

Fry The Coop was definitely a stop I would recommend you make, especially if you want to take a few moments and admire a lot of the old pictures that are carefully hung throughout the restaurant. I'm not sure if there is a rhyme nor reason to a theme of the pictures. Most of them are rather old but I'm not sure how it connects to the restaurant. Regardless I did take a few moments to look at the various pictures and most of them have a connection to Chicago and even Bolingbrook which is definitely appreciated. The employees definitely seem to engaged and were able to answer any questions I had about the menu which consists of various options all based around chicken nuggets and tenders, even including a variety of sauces. I'll be back and I recommend you do the same. read more

Obsessed. Can't ever get enough. I love the sandwiches and the tenders. Everyone is always so nice. The restaurants are kind of freezing sometimes but I still enjoy eating in. read more

Every time I go to this location, Mika, Wilson and Emily are so friendly. The food is always slappin. i have MS and before I was diagnosed i would eat fried chicken all the time. it would give me flare ups. the fact that fry the coop uses beef fat to fry their chicken and fries, it keeps my inflammation down. I get to eat my chest meal and not pay the price. god bless you guys. read more

The food was delicious. We were greeted as soon as we entered, the young lady was very sweet and explained the menu and options clearly. My daughter and I ordered the Spicy butter and the Original Nashville. A really cute place to have lunch or dinner. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is because when our order was called we didn't know he was speaking to us and got up to get our order... no biggie right? Well every single order taken after ours was served and brought to the customer at their table by gentleman that called our order... so the inconsistency was not there and made us feel a certain way. read more

Went early on Saturday morning after craving chicken and waffles. No one was in restaurant at time, very casual spot. If you dine in insist up as picnic tables, they are large enough to fit 8-10 people a table. You order at counter and then it is brought to you. I ordered a serving of chicken and waffles to share w my husband . Just want to try , not be too full. Price was about 15$ . We sat and waited for some time before the cashier came out and advised there was error/issue and it would be some time longer. We waited and then again were advised that wait was almost over , luckily we were not in a rush and we were offered an additional order at no charge for inconvenience. Once food arrived it was nice and hot. Chicken was crispy and had good flavor , waffles were good, would have liked a little more crisp to them but they were good especially with the syrup. Inside was bacon pieces and powdered sugar. You are able to choose spice level of chicken, I got mild and it was perfect . I'm not a fan of spicy . Would definitely go and try again, would like to try the fries but would go back if ever craving waffles and chicken again. read more

Went to Fry the Coop Bolingbrook location because for the past week I heard nothing but good things about the small chicken chain. And wanted to try them out, I was there at 11:55 am today and a really nice lady Mikahla worked the register she was nice, patient and pleasant to talk too. I didn't realize til last second that the medium equaled to habanero spice so I asked to change it to mild and she immediately requested the kitchen crew to change it from medium to mild instead, thank you for adjusting my request so well Mikahla. The Chicken and Cheese Sandwich is 11.95 a la carte this doesn't include the meal if you want the meal its 5.99 more for a fry and large drink. This place is on the pricey side so please be aware if you want to stay at minimum of $20. So the chicken and cheese sandwich and a small house fry is 4.59 a la carte for the fries. With tax my total was 18.20?!Wow!! Well let me tell ya folks was it worth the 18.20 the answer is Yes. It was definitely worth the money, the chicken sandwich traveled well and stayed warm during the travel home. Their house fries although this is my first time trying beef fat fries they had an interesting flavor to the fries. The fries have their skin on so kept half of the fries crispy while the more lengthy fries are crispy and fluffy inside. They had about 10 customers dining in at the time I entered and waited for my food. Wait time for my food was 5 minutes so great customer service and great food. Thank you again guys I will come back soon. read more

It's very expensive for what is incloaded.The waffles were called and the chicken is coated heavily and the fries were not like Is fries

Fry the Coop serves up crispy perfection! The batter was light, not greasy, and the spice was on point. Didn't really care for the hot honey butter (tasted artificial), but everything else was a solid . read more

Recently tried this business after it's grand opening. My husband and I got chicken sandwiches to go, with seasoned fries and Mac n cheese. The girl at the counter was very helpful, suggesting that I only order Medium spice level as it's equivalent to most place's Hot. She also offered a water cup while I waited for the food, which was not very long at all. The chicken sandwiches were filling, the seasoned fries a little soggy but otherwise tasty, and the Mac n cheese was good too. I'll definitely be back to try tenders and other options. read more

I'd highly recommend the new Fry the Coop place! Hubby just got a small 3 piece meal to try while I went to Los Comales. We brought the food home and upon trying a French fry which was a fresh cut fry nothing frozen and mass produced! I had a bite of his chicken tender which I then wanted to switch!! Very, very good chicken!! I'm already making plans for what I will get on our next visit! And their Fry the Coop sauce was very yummy! Though tasting it I just could not put my finger on what exactly it was but it was damn good!! Check them out!! read more

Went today for lunch at opening time. Ordered a tender meal. chicken and coleslaw were excellent. I got mild because I'm a wimp when it comes to spices :-) Mild had a little cayenne on it but it was really good. The fries were disappointing. They were slightly warm and not crisp. The cook was very nice but the staff taking the order was not very friendly, she was very busy working on other things like opening wrappers etc. I will try again in the future. I bit pricey but I guess everything is these days. Providing an additional star because the owner reached out and I really appreciated that. As stated above, the chicken was excellent. read more

Holy crap is this good! Laid back environment and a very friendly staff. I had the spicy butter sandwich (med) and messy fries. Everything was piping hot and very good! This will be the new spot for lunch. Although 22 bucks for a chicken sandwich and fries means I can't afford it to often. read more

First of all great customer service. Cashier was very friendly and helpful, describing their menu options and food preparation. Portion size was very generous and food was prepared perfectly. I went with the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (mild). It was really good and I will definitely be back for another. I probably will bump it up to medium heat. The mild definitely had some heat but is what I would classify as mild. Can't wait to come back and try other items on the menu. read more

Super clean. Food was hot and very good. Staff kept busy in spite of it not being very busy (off hour for lunch). Ephran (manager) attentive and helpful. It was our 1st time there, and we will definitely be back. read more

Yikes! $18.82 for a chicken sandwich, fries and a small coke. The food was ok, nothing special and the service was good. But not even remotely worth the price read more

My company catered from here. I was surprised at how much food there was. I had a mild sandwich it was good. I would have liked a little hotter but for mild it was good. Coleslaw was good could use onion or something it just needed something to step it up a notch we also had Mac n cheese texture was good, but again just needed a little something to take it up a notch. read more

Food was good. The fingers were HUGE. Quite a bit spicier than I expected. Chicken was juicy.

People were great, nice place, but I left knowing I was not coming back. Hot chicken was spicy and good, but the rest was disappointing. Cole slaw was bland, and the coop sauce was nothing special. Seasoned fries were short, bland and not crisp at all. There was nothing about the meal I would come back for, and I'm sad about that. Bolingbrook needs some standout places. read more

My tenders were very dark like cooked in old grease with no flavor. Not worth the money two orders of tenders with fries $35.00 dollars. I hope it's gotten better. read more

A bit pricey, but the sandwiches and chicken strips are really good. Layout is family friendly and service is fast.

1st time to the Bolingbrook location. Just picked up my order and got home to find a nice long hair in the tenders... mixed well with the breading. Not the experience I was looking for... I guess I'll stick to the Darien location where they know how to properly prepare food in a commercial kitchen. read more

Fry The Coop - Not my hair - Fast Food Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

Fry the Coop is a great little spot that is fairly new in Bolingbrook. I've been 2xs and tried different sandwiches and have been satisfied each time. Portions are generous, the food is freshly made and you should try it of you're in the area. It is a little pricey spent 40$ when I bought me and my son lunch. The service is good, friendly and relatively fast. read more

I placed my order online hoping for a little faster service. My order was supposed to be ready in 15 minutes. I get there in 15 minutes ask about my order and they tell me it will be another 5 minutes.. I see 2 bags of food on the counter. Other customers come in, get their food with no problems, a customer comes back after getting their order and complains about missing fries, they make his fries and give it to him, it's now been 20 minutes, I ask about my food again and it's been sitting there the whole time, it's one of the 2 bags I saw when I first arrived, cashier was rude and couldn't care less. Food was cold and unappetizing, fries were ice cold.. this food is expensive and I just threw my money and time away, I'm never going there again mainly because of the way I was treated. Complained to corporate and all I got was, "thanks for your business " never again. read more

Came back for the messy fries. They did not disappoint. Food was ready so fast we were shocked! I highly recommend online ordering.

Regular customer, always order online, service is great. Food even better. Git the mild tenders plate with seasoned fries. Chicken was tasty, hot, huge pieces that are very juicy, obviously made to order. Fries are good; coleslaw could use more flavor. Highly recommended! read more

This place is the best chicken spot around by far. Very very clean, very nice employees, and phenomenal food. It's definitely worth the 20 minute drive! read more

Great food, great people, great service, great portions. Not the biggest fan of the fries but the sandwich alone is why I always come back

STAY AWAY. We ordered three tenders plates; two mild (flavor, no heat) and one medium. What we got was "mild" plates that burned our mouths out. Not joking; we were gulping milk and yogurt after the first bite. Completely inedible. Either the staff made a really careless mistake or the staff thought it would be funny to supply the wrong chicken. Either way, not acceptable. I don't like spending nearly $50 on inedible food. read more

Food was good! Multiple spice levels available. I went with mild to start with, but will try hotter next time. Was more costly than expected. read more

I went to Fry the coop on 11/12/2024, granted this was just before closing time and ordered the messy fries which is supposed to be Seasoned Fries, Fried Chicken, Coleslaw, Pickles and Coop Sauce.I asked for no Cole Slaw. What i got was a small order of fries with some seasoning ,period. No chicken no pickles no coop sauce.They could have just said we were closing if they didnt want to take my order instead of just throwing together some seasoned fries.Needless to say i wont be going back, they lost a customer read more
