    Mild TENDER PLATE COOP SAUCE
    Mark M.

    Been going to Fry the Coop for quite some time and they always deliver. Online ordered the 3 piece tenders with fries and coop sauce. It was ready in 10 minutes. Walked in straight to the pickup counter and had no problems whatsoever. Tenders had the perfect amount of flavor and the fries were still crispy when I got home. To top it off the tenders and fries are cooked in TALLOW! What isn't there to like about that.

    Got the spicy honey sandwich. The sandwich don't come with pickles very disappointing thought all sandwiches had pickles. Other then that the sandwich was pretty good got the medium spice level not spicy in my opinion. The fries were not good at all! Very salty on the regular fries. The seasoned fried were also not good. No flavor for seasoned fries. The fountain drinks were also nasty machine needs to be cleaned or something. Pricing is a little more than average for a combo. All in all not so good.

    Amazing Love the fact the kiosk is so easy to acesss and love the customer service staff

    Pretty good food. Portions are a bit smaller now for what you pay. Service was friendly.

    Stans donut chicken sandwich

    Tried for the 1st time on National Donut Day. There was a colab with stans donuts. The sandwich included a stans sugar donut cut in half and Fry the coop chicken it was a good sandwich. I decided on the medium heat, which was more mild with very little heat. The sandwich itself was tasty, but I wish I had ordered a more spicy chicken piece. Customer service was good and they were getting orders out quickly.

    Not much chicken, dried out from sitting out for hours. Getting close to White Castle size. Will see how this goes through me.

    Soooo cold in here you can feel the ice cold air on your clothes. Thinking it's always cold here but this is like china where there is no heat in public places. Lo and behold Nicor spiked natural gas to $1.35 per therm last month. People are eating with not only coats on but hats scarfs and even gloves. It's warmer outside.

    Pre-pandemic, Fry the Coop was a favorite local-ish place to go when nursing a hankering for hot chicken. I hadn't been to this location but when I was down on the south side anyway I thought this would be a nice treat since I haven't been there in over three years, since before the pandemic began. It's still good but there have been some changes. Prices have increased, of course. That's an overall given. But surprisingly, there are no sides included with your meal. I suppose this shouldn't really be a surprise since most fast-food type places don't include a side with your meal, but FtC did used to include fries with your chicken, I'm pretty sure. On the other hand, if you go to other fast food places it's cheaper. So with the cost of the chicken PLUS the cost of any side (fries were $4!), it gets a bit steep pretty quickly. But luckily it's still really good. They have six heat levels here, and from past experience I know that the third level is plenty for me. It's spicy and can leave your lips tingling, but also you can taste a bit of sweetness too. Fries are good; they may be homemade? This location has outdoor seating as well for those warmer months. There's also a small parking lot which maybe could get hard to park when it's busier, since there are other businesses here as well, but it's possible you could park on the side street along here too.
