Amazing tenders amazing portions amazing service and great pricing would recommend i go here with my dad and his friend basically every week

Perfect spicy chicken sandwich. Love this place. Don't get here often but I've never been disappointed

It was ok food. The chicken sandwiches have different levels of spiciness. They weren't too bad. If you love pickled, vinegar soaked, coleslaw (no mayo) then you'll be in heaven. The fries are seasoned. The amount of seasoning varies, as I ordered large and small fries. The small order's seasoning was good, but the large order tasted like they dropped the seasoning bucket on them. :) They do have a steady flow of customers, but I myself probably won't be back. And before I forget, hats off to the staff. They were very friendly and courteous. read more

Checked out MOTHERCLUCKER in Shawnee and those strips are BIG! Could barely finish one 1/2 of them. Fries were pretty good. Shakes were busy but good. Service was great and they have a nice outdoor area when nice. Easy to order and quality Nashville hot chicken! read more

My family has been going to Mother Cluckers since they opened. At first management or owner was in the restaurant most of the time. We used to bring family and friends because we'd tell everyone how wonderful it was. As time went on, I saw less of management/owner. The decline in service and quality of the food seems to coincide with this. for a while we were being charged $1 for a white slice of bread, not buttered or toasted. We were told the toaster was broken but this went on for months. Last time we were there, another couple was trying to order at one kiosk and us at another. We messed with it for about 5 minutes and then told the girl at the counter that it wasn't working. She says "yeah, the kiosks aren't working" well she watched us trying to order for 5 minutes and didn't say anything. so we try to give her our order directly and she tells us to go sit down because it's going to be a while. our party(3) and the other couple were the only ones in the restaurant. we sat for about 5 mins and then walked out. Today we went to eat, they could not get the World Cup game on (no biggie) so we ordered our food to go. The tenders were ok but all our fries were cold and had NO seasoning-the seasoning keeps me coming back! I ordered 2 tenders and got one normal size and one tiny one. They've thrown an extra in before if the tenders were small... I mean each tender is 4.75! I miss the mother Cluckers that I fell in love with, please do better! read more

I'm a sucker for a good hot chicken sandwich and Mother Clucker delivers every time with a tasty (and large) sandwich, and piping hot fries to go with it. Honestly it just hits each time I get food from here. So why not a full five stars? I tend to think it's a bit pricey - the sandwich and the fries together will run you $16 before tax and tip, so to get a full chicken sandwich meal you're looking at closer to $19. I think last time I ordered from here I got two sandwiches and two orders of fries and it was around 40. Now, I get it, it's good, and it's local, and I don't mind paying it from time to time but the cost keeps me from keeping this in a more regular rotation. read more

I've really been looking forward to trying this for a few months and finally got the time to do so today for lunch. We arrived around 1:45 pm and there were absolutely no tables to sit at because it was so packed. The set up is a little odd - There's screens for self order when you walk in - but it wasn't until later I realized you can also place your order at the front. First thing I noticed upon walking in was how HOT it was inside. The place is very cutely decorated, however it is small. We opted to sit outside on a nice warm day in August but clearly that didn't last long and managed to snag a table inside by someone waiting for their food at an empty table.... The sandwiches are huge, with an oddly amount of slaw - which I pulled off half. The chicken breast was nicely cooked and juicy - however with the amount of time it took to come out - it wasn't as fresh as I was hoping for. We split a large fry and each got a sandwich. I should have taken the fries back up to get new ones as they tasted like they had been sitting a while - and hubs made the comment that they were tough. Restaurant was dirty - as yes I understand it was busy - but there weren't enough workers to keep it in running order. The place cleared out by the time we were done - and no sight seen of someone to come out and push the chairs in and tidy up. We shared an epic milkshake - it was good. Not sure if we will be back but glad we tried it. read more

TOP Chicken in KC...Mother Clucker! Mother Clucker is well-known in the KC area for its tasty chicken & different levels of heat/spice. You can find Mother Clucker inside of The Parlor KC or at the restaurant in Shawnee! Along with juicy meat served chicken tender style, this spot serves tasty crinkle fries, stacked sandwiches, & loaded shakes. You must order the signature sauce to dip your crinkle fries into!

Add Mother Clucker to your Kansas City food bucket list today! This spot is convenient because there is plenty of space in the parking lot.

Decided to give mother clucker a try after reading all the 4-5 star reviews. Being a chicken sandwich fanatic myself, I just couldn't help but let the curiosity get the best of me. That being said, the OG chicken sandwich at mother clucker wasn't quite my cup of tea. The spice was definitely there, but the slaw was just not right. Adding sour and tang to an already tangy sandwich just doesn't make sense to me. I suppose the pickled cabbage on pickled pickles with the tangy spicy sauce slathered on the fried chicken was just overkill. Personal preference I suppose. read more

Happened to drive by and with such a catchy name, thought why not give it a try! The chicken tenders are jumbo and piping hot coming fresh out of the fryer. They, along with the fries are nicely seasoned. We opted for the 3 tender combo ($9 for the tenders, $4 to add small drink and fries) and a delicious gourmet dirty shake for $9. The food was great but a bit on the pricey side, however, 3 tenders fed 2 people which was nice. There's not much indoor seating but there's a large patio with seating outside. I do think the tenders should come with more than 1 dipping sauce. Any additional are 50 cents and with 3 jumbo tenders, 1 just doesn't cut it. read more

I came here on a recommendation of another yelped. They have different levels of spicy. I got the OG tenders and fries. I have never in my 42 years had a tender burst with so many well combined spices. OG wasn't spicy. The mild had a little bite and there is a medium - we didn't get that but the one with the most heat, it but you back. Even with the spicy seasoning, every piece still had that OG flavoring. And l don't let me get started on the fries, Kringle cut, crispy but not too crispy. Just perfect. You self order at a kiosk and the employees fill the orders. They are friendly and available to help with anything. Establishment is a little small, no drive through but quaint and cut and not over stimulating. They seem to get steady business but I haven't really seen them over busy. read more

Mother Clucker - 3 piece OG tenders with spicy honey dipping sauce, ketchup and ranch. All three were good. And fries. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

I enjoyed the flavorful Nashville hot chicken and the fast service at this new spot on opening day. The Nashville hot chicken was fried in seasoned oil and then dusted with spices. My order was ready just five minutes after I ordered at one of the two kiosks. The tender ($4.50) was nice and large with a thin, flavorful, somewhat crunchy coating and moist, premium, perfectly cooked white meat. Six heat levels were available. The "kicking it up" level I selected had a nice (but not overwhelming) amount of lingering heat - nice! The tender was served Nashville style with pickle slices and a slice of white bread. I also liked the flavorful crinkle cut fries ($3.00) and the vinegar-based slaw ($3.00). The dining area was clean and new with country oldies background music (not too loud) and one TV (off). I also noticed a patio out front. Overall, pretty good! read more

I love Mother Clucker but I especially love that I no longer need to go inside Parlor to get it. I decided to check out the new Shawnee digs. I liked that you can order from a person or from a kiosk. The service was quick and friendly. I got the three tenders and fries. You get to choose your spice level. I normally go pretty hot but I decided to go mild this time. It was still plenty spicy and still delicious. They have crinkle cut fries that you can't go wrong with. We also got the comeback sandwich but asked for the slaw on the side. The slaw didn't make it into our Togo bag but my boyfriend said he actually preferred the sandwich without the slaw so crisis averted. They don't skimp on the extra pickles. I'm a fan of this location and I'll definitely be back. read more

Gotta admit, this is a great Nashville hot Chicken Sandwich. Just as great as the original location at Parlor. I got the chicken sandwich and guess what the very first thoughts in my head were? IS THIS A PORK TENDERLOIN? Lol. No, it's chicken. The fries are excellent with the seasoning and the ranch dressing in's as great too. The cluck sauce is different, a bit too red cider vinegary for my tastes. The chicken tenders are huge too. My friend got the salad and loved it. Now, the shakes!!!!!!!! Lord have mercy how good the shakes are! That's right, splurge a little. Yeah, no pics, we were hungry and just dived in. read more

I've been coming to mother Clucker since they opened their flag ship store inside parlor. Their chicken is always cooked perfectly and adds a kick with their tasty seasoning. I am a big fan of their hot honey mixed with their cluck sauce when I go there. Today was a special occasion because they had their collaboration with Mr. D's donuts and their chicken. Absolutely amazing and so flavorful. Left me in a food coma on my couch! read more

Finally got the chance to check out the location in Shawnee, Kansas. I have only had their parlor location prior today I went a little after the lunch hour service was super friendly and fast. You have the option to order at the counter or through a kiosk. You can also order pick up and get it curbside. I ordered at the counter where I got jumbo tenders, a sandwich, and a Cap'n Crunch shake. There are a number of seating options inside as well as outside on the patio area. On the patio, they have TVs and a fire pit as well as heaters for chillier times. When I received my food, everything was hot and fresh. Everything was so flavorful and delicious. I got my shake and everyone Around me, was so impressed with the size of it from the tenders, to the sandwich, to the shake, everything was amazing. They have great seasoned fries, as well as a number of sauces to choose from. You can choose the heat amount you want from not spicy too very spicy. Parking is easy to access. I cannot recommend this place more, it is one of my favorite places in Kansas City. read more

Located in downtown Shawnee area. I stopped here for dinner on a Friday night. It's a small dine in place. Nice and clean inside. Building has been updated. Mother Clucker wall art inside. Walk in and order at the counter or at the kiosks. Chicken meal menu with your choice of heat level preferences. I ordered The Comeback Sandwich which is huge! Spicy chicken served on a bun with pickled red cabbage with a side order of crinkle cut fries. That's what make their sandwich unique from other places. read more

We loved Mother Clucker in the Parlor building and love it just as much at its first flagship location. The kiosks are simple and easy, the decor is beautiful, and the food is consistent and quick. The Cluck Yeah blazing heat left the perfect amount of bite after you chew and swallow. The fries have a tinge of sugar on them in addition to seasoning which makes these addictive! A small and thoughtful note about the restrooms: the little white containers in the women's bathroom had feminine products in them. It was a sweet way to care for female customers who might be unprepared! read more

Food was amazing. I doubted that two chicken tenders would be enough but I was wrong, they're huge! I only ended up finishing one and a half before I was stuffed. The milkshake was SO GOOD. It tasted like cereal milk. The ranch was clearly homemade and delicious. Everything was made to order and the speed was great! We weren't greeted when we walked into the building and we were the only people in the restaurant. I genuinely feel like kiosk style ordering takes some of the personal aspects of the restaurant away but I understand how it could be easier during a rush. We didn't even see the front register where we could interact with a human until after we ordered. read more

Mother Clucker - Comeback Sandwich and Small Fries - Chicken Wings Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

Updated Review: Was 4 stars, now 3. Three for it being better than most hot chicken places in Kansas City -- not that there's much variety anyway, but compared to hot chicken anywhere else it's simply not that great. I ordered the two tender combo with a side of cluck sauce at 'Medium' heat. Seasoning was good, heat intensity wasn't too bad and the food was ready at my scheduled pick-up time. The chicken inside the tender has been pretty dry both times I've ordered. Fries have been overcooked and a little too crunchy both instances I've ordered as well. Overall it's a decent hot chicken spot for Kansas City, unfortunately if you want something good you'll have to travel outside of the city. Can't wait for Dave's Hot Chicken franchises to start showing up around here. Probably won't be back. read more

The chicken is good! I am not sure that we needed another chicken place... I know we definitely needed BETTER chicken places near by. Does this meet that need? The shop: small place and after the initial crowds fall away I am sure that eating in will be a good option. There is a sizeable outdoor space that was not open while I was there (cold KC weather). And this will also help this place out. The Service: There is a lot of people back there running through what to do... and since you can order at the kiosk... you only need one person up front right?!?! The answer is NO. An aged crowd didn't know how to use the kiosks to order. Those of us that did still had to wait to get our cup for drinks behind those that were trying to order, which was constantly interrupted by the ONE front person handing out the food to other customers. Also as customers we can see all of those other people... they are NOT hidden behind a wall! And we are fully aware that they COULD step up and speed the process along. The food: Just WOW... this is some great Nashville Hot chicken! And I 100% will get again. Fries were good... Coleslaw was ok... but I don't really like coleslaw that will so take it for what you will. The only downside with the food is the lack of options. That said I'll make dinner at home then swing by and get a bunch of these tenders to serve with it! Price: This is where they lose me... These are very large chicken pieces and they are delicious. But the price for just me to eat... could mean that I could feed 2.5 people at another chicken place. But, as always... you can only charge what people are willing to pay... so take that for what it is. Will I be back... probably. It was really good chicken. But, due to the price I will likely NOT be a regular. You have the funny name... so I certainly get you selling the swag... but when the T-Shirt is cheaper than the 3 piece snack... you should take a hard look at what you are doing! read more

I was amazed by my sandwich amazing service from Henry and Vale! I I will definitely be back!

First off the fried pickles with the Blazing seasoning is so yummy slightly salty...so you will need a drink but they are crispy and tender. Then the Captain crunch shake is delicious not super sweet at all even with the donut and cookies it's really tasty with super hot chicken you will finish it. The no clucks given chicken is seasoned nicely and fried to a hard crispy shell covered in a hellish seasoning that will bring tears to your eyes so BeWare!!! I will come back here. I've found my chicken home. It's small on the inside with a long bench and 3 tables that seat 4 ppl at each. Food is cooked to order. That's super Awesome!!! I'm very impressed it has been a long time since a restaurant has left an awesome impact on me to want to review let alone return. It's a 5 star for me! Ladies and Gents next time you have a chicken craving choose wisely...or ask yourself why the mother clucker NOT! The Ambiance is very nice and cute with light music. read more

I am a frequent mother clucker and this past visit was very disappointing. Most times I come to this place and have a great experience, the food is always exceptional but the pricing is getting out of hand. Why am I going to a fast food chicken spot to drop 20$ on a few tenders and fries. Not only is the pricing absurd but the wait time is ridiculous. Me and my mother dropped by to grab some food to go while the place had a few others eating and I would not consider too busy. 45 minutes later the restaurant is empty and we are finally served our food. I usually love this place but the wait and the price don't justify me coming back for a while. read more

My first time at MC. First impressions...clean restaurant. Since it was my first time I asked the cashier for some guidance. She had the biggest smile and was so glad to help me. Ordered two large tenders "cluck yeah" heat level. 4 out of 6 on the heat scale. Crinkle fry and a water. I noted they serve ice cream and shakes. Next time for sure. Take a number, take a seat and very quickly brought my order out. WOW. Hot? Tasty and just the right heat for me. Seasoned fries, cluck sauce and ranch. A hint of sugar in the seasonings. Glad I stopped in. A Very busy location in Shawnee. Stop in, enjoy that big smile and some really good food. read more

Stopped by Mother Clucker just after 11:30 on a rainy Saturday. They were already hopping. I ordered the Comeback sandwich at medium heat and it was pretty large and very flavorful. Also very messy. It has a lot going on with the sauce and the slaw but it was definitely good. Next time I want to get the tenders, slaw, and sauce separately so I can fairly judge each component. I might also need to try the wings. For research, you know. You can order at the counter or at kiosks. I ordered at a kiosk, but a staff member delivered the order to my table. She was very nice. This is a solid hot chicken option. Better than Dave's, at least to me. read more

Service is great and has been fast both times I visited this location. Ambiance is average it is a fast food place but still very nice for what it is actually. I like spicy food so when it comes to hot chicken this place get's it done. WARNING: The hottest level of heat at this place is extremely HOT! I like spicy food at it is wicked spicy as it should be! I would 5 star if it had a variety of options but I do understand they keep it simple and do hot chicken well. read more

I'm sorry, I don't get the hype. I saw a tiktok video about them and said I'll give it a try. First of all, $9 for two tenders? Why? The only think you get is a piece of toast, two pickle slices and a dipping sauce. I ordered the second level of heat, I didn't notice any heat to them. They also didn't have any wings available. I honestly should've just walked out. read more

I was very excited to try this place, but unfortunately I was disappointed. WAYYY too much seasoning, this was the saltiest chicken I've ever eaten. I had the cluck yeah seasoning, which was about the middle of the spice rating. The heat was perfect, but the amount of seasoning was overwhelming, and then more seasoning on the fries. I was looking forward to drinking my soda. read more
