    Chicken soup
    Gail P.

    I just love this place. I was in the mood for chicken soup so I decided to do takeout. I have to say they make a very good homemade chicken soup with dumplings. Tons of chicken that's always tender and I just love the dumplings very tasty. Service is always friendly as soon as you walk in that's all you smell is fried chicken. The food is awesome. Great place to stop when you're not in the mood to cook.

    One of my favorites! Awesome place to eat! I always stop by this local restaurant when I'm in the area. I love southern fried chicken and chicken chunks! Best chicken around!!! Service is fast and prices are fair. They even have a cute little picnic area to eat outside.

    Fried Chicken

    If it wasn't due to my in laws who are local send me out to get food from here.... I wouldn't think to stop at this hole in the wall. You could wail at drive by this little spot but the inside is bubbling of the fryers. Prices are decent so worth supporting local. We got the fried chicken which was tasty. Also enjoyed fries (I like their thick crinkle cut) & coleslaw (standard). I never pass up pickle fries and was surprised to see they were full on spears deep fried! Tasty. Overall we ordered and got the hot food rather quick. Like I said... if it wasn't thanks to locals I don't think that upon first impressions I would have ordered here.

    Chicken chunks

    Plenty of CT restaurants serve very good bone-in fried chicken, but I've only been to one noteworthy CT restaurant where bone-in fried chicken is a particular focus -- Greer's Chicken in Bristol. Greer's is a longtime Bristol institution, and outsiders in the know make the trip to the takeout and outside picnic table only shack. In addition to tasty bone-in, Greer's has "chicken chunks", nuggets, fries and other fried sides, Mac N Cheese, Mashed Potaoes, and classic cookout sides like coleslaw, potato salad, and macaroni salad. All the sides (mashed potatoes, Mac N Cheese, coleslaw, and Macaroni salad) we tried were a cut or two above the normal. Over the course of two days, I tried a breast, thigh and drumstick. All high quality chicken. The breading has a minimalist vibe. I'm cool with that style. I could use a touch more seasoning, but I'm a fan of Greer's chicken. I like the chunks even more. Air fryers now make enjoying Greer's possible for a wider range of people. I live about 30 minutes from Greer's, but I air-fried the chicken pieces for 5 minutes at 360 and it was right on. I also put some Mac and Mashed Potatoes in a small oval Pyrex and air-fried them with the chicken. The sides were perfect after this re-heating. While I was waiting for my order, a woman came in and ordered THREE chicken pot pie's. I asked her why 3. She told me because "they're that good. And one is for a bribe." There you have it. A woman I don't know thinks Greer's has bribe-worthy chicken pot pies. 4.5 Stars

    Really wanted to love this fried chicken since we were craving broasterant but they were closed. Initial reaction, I'm confused because it seems like a residential area but there's a fried chicken place? Heck yeah. Anyway, we initially ordered the chicken bites and a couple of wings to try it out before we ordered a bunch. It was ok. Not so much seasoning but the fry was solid. The cornbread I wish was warmed up. It was very thin and small but it was $0.85 so I guess it's ok. The potato salad was also good. Overall, they need to add more seasoning to the chicken. Still hunting for great fried chicken in the hartford county. ++ Staff was friendly.

    This place is so cute, and so good! It's located on the cusp of a residential area in Bristol, and I would recommend calling in your order ahead of time. The inside has enough room for a line of customers to order and pick up, and the rest is devoted to cooking. There are picnic tables outside, but most people seem to pay and go. (Then your car smells like delicious chicken) The corn bread is moist with a honey layer on top, and the mac and cheese is downright velvety. However, the star is their fried chicken. They come in bites and bones, and the bone-in chicken I personally think is the best. Even the breast, which so many places dry out, is perfectly coated and flavored throughout the meat.

    First time I've been here in over a year. Absolutely disgusting! - Chicken chunks were dried out, almost like they were fried and then refried. The coating was extra thick and didn't taste like fresh chicken like it used too. - Southern fried chicken, again, dried out - overcooked. - My fault for asking for extra mayo... holy hell, they definitely gave extra mayo on my chicken sandwich. I couldn't even taste anything but the mayo - not edible. - Wings were dried out - and the Buffalo sauce tasted weird! - Positive side, fries were OK WASTED $80...

    Tangy Mustard Chicken Chunks
    Carlos P.

    If you're looking for a place to get your chicken fix, look no further than Greers Chicken! Their tangy mustard chicken chunks are the stuff of legends. I swear, it's like they're marinated in gold or something. I can never get enough of that sauce, so I always make sure to buy extra on the side. And the fries? Let's just say they're so fresh out of the fryer, they're practically still sizzling. But the real star of the show here is the friendly staff and lightning-fast service. It's like they know I'm on a tight schedule and they're determined to get me my chicken fix as quickly as possible. Plus, you can support your local businesses and get a better meal at the same time! Do yourself a favor and head down to Greers Chicken today. Your taste buds (and your wallet) will thank you! *stick to the tangy mustard chicken chunks & you can't go wrong.

    Dry chicken breast
    Susan S.

    3.5 stars Locals rave. Fry badder coating is perfect. Light and not greasy at all. Extra .5 star for super friendly staff! Sadly though... Chicken is dry. This is my 2nd visit and I hoped the last dry ck experience was a fluke. Sadly, no. You can really tell in the ck breast pic I took. Ck Chunks were also dry. I went crazy and ordered mozz sticks knowing they were frozen but sadly the cheese inside was like a cream cheese schmear... hard to explain. No stars deducted because mozz sticks aren't what they r known for. Glad they have a local following. Wishing them continued success- just not my preference for fried ck
