Late night hunger pains led me here inside the Parlor! One of few spots open after 8pm Kiosk allows for easy ordering and cooks prepared comeback sandwich (weak stuff heat level) & fries fresh made to order. Appreciate the text notifications when order is ready too! Cluck sauce is tangy but good flavor for the sandwich. The chicken was hot and crunchy with a bit of flavor and not much heat at all... so yeah it was weak lol.
More disappointing than I had hoped. I got the three piece tenders to try out Mother Clucker, and the chicken wasn't nearly as crispy, spicy, or tangy as expected. It wasn't cooked consistently all the way through, so some parts were less bad, but other parts were dry. Overall, not a great experience, wouldn't recommend.
Mother Clucker did NOT play! I tried the Inferno Tenders and when I say the heat was REAL, it was real -- but in the best way. Perfectly crispy, juicy on the inside, and coated with that bold, spicy flavor that keeps you going back for more. The seasoning was on point and packed with flavor, not just heat for no reason. If you love spicy chicken and want something that actually delivers, the Inferno Tenders are a must-try. Mother Clucker definitely knows how to bring the heat!
Honestly I wasn't expecting much from a chicken joint but boy was i glad to he surprised, before we hop into that let's talk ambiance. The environment is what you would expect from a place that's conglomerate of different places pushed into one building in downtown Kansas city and just as many polo shirts as you would think as well. The service was excellent, the guy was attentive, friendly and excellent and prepping food quick and good. I picked up the chicken sandwich combo and I decided to dive in and get the hottest they have... and finally for once in the human forsaken city did somebody mean it when they said spicy! It was so hot i almost began to sweat, flavorful slow burn and I loved it. The fries were pretty stellar as well. Overall if you are in the area and want a chicken sandwich this place nails it.
Chicken sandwiches are quickly becoming one of my favorite food types. Do use a dated, 2010's term, that might make me "basic", but I don't much care! I got the hottest spice level for my sandwich here and I was blown away and brutalized in a way I haven't been in years. I was left sobbing in a puddle, sore, and ready for snuggles...just like I like it. Translation for the prudes: the hottest spice level here is actually hot. You likely cannot handle it. It's at the same level as some places where eating hot stuff will get you a photo on the wall! (like Fire on the Mountain in Portland) I love that this place is embedded in Parlor, it's such a fun indoor foodcart concept. The self-service water station REALLY came in handy!
Located in the Parlor. This place is located upstairs and in the corner. You go the counter place your order and you will get a text when it's ready. I would recommend getting the tenders over all of the other options. If you are dining for two I would suggest one person getting the combo to share fries because there is enough for two. The cluck sauce isn't all that and would get the hot honey and ranch over it. Seasoning is good for th little bit heat and it was heat worthy.
This is a perfectly acceptable chicken restaurant. You can order tenders or wings. They come with your choice of heat: OG, Weak Sauce, Kickin' It Up, Cluck Yeah, Mother Clucker and What the Cluck? I'm not sure how they exactly do it, but it's almost like the sauce is baked on the chicken. It's good though, but beware, the heat can sneak up on you. Crinkle fries, slaw and other sides are available. Sauces are, too. I haven't tried the shakes yet, but they look good.
My daughter recommended this place. I didn't expect a foot court style setup, but more trendy. It is in a large building with several other food stalls, like a cafeteria food court setup. You get your food and they share a common eating area. There was also a bar upstairs and downstairs serving alcohol. A lot of people appear to come here after work. It's a nice relaxing place to go and get a bite to eat. There is a terrace upstairs to eat outside. The tables and area were clean and service was fast. The chicken sandwich with 4 heat was excellent. What can they do to a chicken sandwich to make it unique? My expectations weren't high. This thing was packed with flavor and heat. Chicken was tender and crispy. The pickles and sour coleslaw on top of the sandwich made the entire meal. The heat, the tangy, the sour... damn good sandwich. A lot of people were dressed well and mingling. I don't know how you could eat a sandwich of this magnitude and remain attractive to another human. It gets everywhere. The prices aren't cheap, but not over priced. The sandwich was huge. Good size pile of fries if you get the combo. Definitely worth the visit if you're in the area and need a quick bite and rest awhile.
The chicken here is absolutely amazing! The comeback sandwich keeps me coming back often! This sandwich is the size of my face and never disappoints! They have a kiosk where you order your food and they text you when your food is done. The food is fast, fresh, and delicious! This place is inside of Parlor which is set up like a food court. It also has two bars one downstairs and upstairs. The 2nd floor bar has a walkout patio to sit in with views of all the mural art surrounding the area! I highly recommend this place!
First Impression: This place is located inside Parlor upstairs and has plenty of seating around it. Beware parking can be tight especially on a busy night. It feels like an old school southern chicken shop was put into a very modern bar scene. Pretty cool change of pace. Food: So warning, they aren't kidding about "hot" chicken. I got the chicken sandwich in cluck ya (Blazin spice) which is like the 3rd hottest flavor. It definitely packs a punch, and I like to think I have a decent spice tolerance. However, the taste was still amazing. The savory seasoning made me want to keep taking bites regardless of the pain. The sauce is a nice touch to keep the sandwich from being too dry. Additionally, the pickles and cole slaw on the burger provide a nice acidity to contrast from the heat of the chicken. I think the bun was good but couldn't taste it much from all the flavors sandwiched inside! Final Verdict: If you are going to parlor this is definitely a spot to try. I'd go back for sure but maybe get a spice level down so I don't feel like I need a halftime break to eat my meal. Although, you know a meal is good if you still enjoy it while feeling the heat. 5 stars.
Fun looking and PROFESSIONAL cook and order taker that worked well together. Pick your heat level and how you like your chix strip/ sandwich prepared. They seem to have the longest and latest line around here. They'll take your phone # and text you when your order is ready. The cook who was busy cooking when I put my order in, knew later who I was when it came time for me to pick up my order. Uncanny and super duper neatness!
Was in KC for a workshop. On our last night, we needed a spot for our farewell social. In addition to the two bars, there were several restaurants...I chose Mother Clucker. The service and menu were great. The food the came out quickly and tasted great. read more

This chicken was delicious!! Popped in before the Chappell Roan show - the top floor of Parlor was more our vibe than the ground floor. Chicken and fries were hot and fast, crispy and delicious. The staff were friendly too. Really appreciated this visit. 10/10 would go back. read more

I've been to mother clucker a few times now and overall I'd give it an A-. The pros are that you get a ton of food and it's consistently good. The cons are that I always feel like it could be a little better. Like, the flavor is not as strong as I expect it to be. The crunch is there and the sides are great - just want it to be a sandwich I crave. I'll keep coming back as it's good, I just feel like it could be great. read more

This business serves juicy, spicy chicken with a crispy skin crunch. Service was average. Ambiance was a little noisy but where this establishment is located is designed to be a social gathering spot. read more

This is a spot inside of the Parlor! So, honestly it's okay. Not life changing, but decent chicken. I had the chicken tender combo this time which came with 2 tenders and fries. I have had their flavors before and I'm not a fan of the dry rubs, so I got plain. The chicken was juicy and nicely sized. It does come with a nice portion of fries! One sauce is given, but you can ask for more. read more

I have finally arrived to the highly anticipated Mother Clucker. All of the buzz definitely wasn't a hype. The "comeback" sandwich is definitely a sandwich that will keep me coming back. It is a huge chicken breast fried up to the amount of spice level you can handle. Fully dressed with a homemade slaw, and thick cut sweet pickles. The atmosphere of the parlor itself is destined for a good time with anyone who come with or meet here. There are many different settings from an outdoor patio, to restaurant, to bar, to stadium, to bookstore. You can come in for a quick bite to eat alone, or with a group of people for a night out! This sandwich made my Friday night, and more excited for the summer nights ahead. Also the French fries remind me of raising canes & they are one of my favorite places to eat fries. The only downside I have to say is I wish the bun was bigger! It's literally 1/3 of the size of the chicken breast, which isn't a huge complaint but the bread is amazing as well! read more
I love the Comeback sandwich here. I always get mine "blazing". It's the right amount of kick for someone who likes spicy food but doesn't want to be overwhelmed. The breast is always perfectly breaded, massive, succulent white meat chicken. The red cabbage is perfect. The fries are always enough for two people. The seasoning always reminds me of BBQ potato chips. These are fries that need mayo or aioli. Like everything at Parlor, it's on the pricy side but so fantastic. read more

On my 1st trip to Parlor, I wanted to sample a couple different places, so I just went with small orders at 2 places. At Mother Clucker I had 2 wings for $6, they came on a piece of bread with a few pickles on the side. I asked for them with "a hint of burn". I received a text in about 10 minutes to pick up my food - great concept. The wing crust was great - crispy and flavorful, but closer to the bone, the meat was undercooked, pink, stringy and firmly attached to the bone. A Huge disappointment. I would like to try them again in the future, but I will probably steer clear of any bone-in products and try the great looking chicken breast sandwich. Pickles were great! read more
I'm so disappointed in Mother Clucker. We came around 6pm for dinner and we tried to get sandwiches and they said we're out of bread, Nashville style pickles, ice cream, and various other things. So we each got tenders and an order of fries. The chicken was supposed to be semi hot and it wasn't hot, just dry and flavorless. Neither of us finished our tenders and asked for a box and they were out of boxes. The employee said "well it's Sunday, we're just out of a lot of stuff." This is so disappointing and frustrating. Glad I threw away $28 worth of food!!! read more

Food is alright at best. That's only if you are hungry. Definitely aren't missing out if you never come here. Chicken was on the verge of being over cooked. Definitely over floured. Like mother clucker where's the meat? At least the trash will get full because I sure didn't. So many people try to cook fried chicken. They shouldn't. Can someone please tell me a good chicken place. They are few and far between. Not impressed. At least the ambiance of Parlors nice even though the foods not. read more

Your order Order #35 at Mother Clucker KC is now ready. Utensils, napkins and water are at the service station by our elevator. Thanks! This was the worst tasting fried chicken I ever ate. It looked and tasted like it was cooked in old grease. I'm truly disappointed with my first and last time visiting Mother Clucker located 1707 Locust St., the Parlor in KCMO. DONT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED CASH AT ANY MOTHER CLUCKING CLUCKER! read more
Long over due for a review here! So here it is.. My mouth is getting mouth watered just thinking about the chicken here! The infamous Mother Clucker-- usually the longest line at Parlor. Ordering is super easy, choose your heat and your tenders.. or a sandwich and some diabetes dessert lol hope you're not counting your calories here! anyways, you order, they'll ask for your number and than you can go sit wherever, they'll text you when your order is ready (which is pretty quick!) The chicken is hugeee, and so tender. The level of heat is serious, so go for something mild if you're not up for some tear jerking food. I also love their fried pickles! Only down side here is that they don't have a drive thru, haha read more

Food came out fast, hot and delicious. 3 things you don't find at the general mass of restaurants nowadays. But this restaurant inside of Parlor is top shelf. It's so original and different from the food options to the portions. The amazing milkshakes you see on Instagram and other social media? You can find them here. And they are well beyond worth the $8! The fries come out in an enormous basket and the house sauce goes perfectly with them. The chicken is thickly layered with a deep fried crust I've never had before. You can choose your flavor! It was some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. And I'm black. SIDE NOTE: the batter they used for the chicken is rather sweet! If you're weird about sugar, beware. Overall: MUST go check this place out read more
