Not bad for airport food! I will consider this one of the better fast food stalls at the airport. The chicken was lightly seasoned with a crunch. I'm a big fan of fried okra and the green beans were on point. Also the staff was very friendly and did a great job of managing the crowd while answering everyone questions. Overall the food was good! Not the best soul food but one of the better places in the airport to eat at. read more

Excellent food and service - food served hot and fresh. My drink was cold from the fountain and I added a cold bottled water. The service was fast and I enjoyed the food - it was tasty and the price was very reasonable. The table spaces are close to the food and they are kept clean but he staff working in the airport terminal. ATL is probably my fave airport in the world to travel through - they have it going on better than anywhere else I've traveled. read more

We had an hour layover and wanted something good for lunch. We got the fish meal which comes with COOKED TO ORDER (yes it was piping hot) fried catfish and two sides. The catfish was DELICIOUS. I also got greens, Mac, and cornbread. The cornbread was also delicious especially with the "pot liquor". Mac was pretty good. Great cheese just lacked salt and pepper. I also got the peach cobbler. It wasn't for me. It was made with a pie crust and SUPER sweet. Which isn't my preference. All in all it was a great meal. read more

Paschal's - Catfish Meal - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This is being judged on the "airport food" scale. In the real world this would be 3 stars but it's better than a lot of the food options at the ATL airport so I'm giving it 4. The servers greeted me were polite, and the food was ok. It was breakfast time so I got scrambled eggs with cheese. Nothing special but it held me over until my next destination! read more

I really wanted to love this food & have it be my final Soul food experience on my way out of Georgia, but it, sadly, missed the mark. I get that it's an airport & everyone is just supposed to be ok with paying full price for sub-par food, but I don't subscribe to that line of thinking. If you're going to serve food, at least try to make it taste somewhat decent. The candied yams were the worst tasting & worst textured food I've had at any restaurant in recent memory. They were hard in the middle, mushy on the edges, and tasted like they'd been sitting in a vat of sugar syrup for a week at room temperature. The corn bread was completely forgettable & the fried okra was just ok. The fried chicken was good, but whatever oil they use to fry the chicken gave me acid reflux for the rest of the night. I love soul food & Southern cooking, but this just ain't it. Do better, Airport Paschals. read more

Had a 1.5 layover in ATL airport at 8:30a on our way to San Antonio and wanted breakfast. Paschal's offers a tasty southern breakfast. The food was quick and flavorful and the price was right. Service was friendly too. If I'm back in ATL at that terminal, I'll be back. read more

Several Southern options to select! Welcomed by a super friendly greeting. The ordered the sausage link and grits with cheese. The link was fulfilling. The grunts needed as dash of seasoning. If your flight departs from terminal B, check them out. read more

Paschal's Restaurant is a historic Atlanta soul food landmark famous for its 1947 fried chicken recipe and its pivotal role as a safe meeting place for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and civil rights leaders in the 1960s. So excited to come here! I got the peach cobbler ~$7 and the grilled chicken plate ~$16 and it was delicious. The chicken was a bit salty and the mac and cheese was delicious. Favorite was the corn bread and collard greens by far. The peach cobbler was very juicy and the flavors were amazing. Brought it back to California, couldn't be happier. Service was okay! Very busy. Found Paschals as I was looking for the best peach dessert. read more

Chicken was ahhhmazing! I'd get a bucket of it. Seasoned perfectly and fried just right. Sides: Top choice - sweet potatoes Just okay - Mac & cheese was decent but the cheese on top was a bit dark for my liking. Greens could have been better flavor wise and could use a little more cooking time as they still had a bit of bite to them. Cornbread was good but could be a bit softer and sweeter, but that's my personal preference. Looking forward to trying their actual restaurant in the city next time. read more

We had a layover at the Atlanta Airport and decided give this place a try. We were pleasantly surprised at how good the food was since it's in an airport. It was late so they were out of some things, but I got baked chicken, mac n cheese, okra and cornbread. Everything was pretty tasty. My husband had the ribs and tried them, too. They were okay. They gave large portions, so we took some of our food to go. The service was pretty good but it can be hard to find a seat a busy times. Overall, my husband and I were both happy with our experience here. read more

Really really enjoyed my meal at Paschal's, from the quick and sweet service (complete with an "is that all, sweetheart?") to the delicious fried chicken. I am not a fried chicken kind of gal, but I am a foodie and had googled good places to eat in the Atlanta airport during a long layover, and Paschal's came up as a must-have! It was conveniently in the concourse we were departing from, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered a two-piece fried chicken meal (dark meat) with the baked Mac and cheese and candied yams as my sides and I have no regrets. It was all delicious, and I would absolutely get it again. The one item I had any sort of complaint about was the cornbread which was just too dry, but hey, it was included/free! It feels tucked away but there are lots of tables around. When I went there was no line. If you're thinking about it, try it! read more

Paschal's - 1947 Fried Chicken 2 Pieces (dark meat) with baked Mac and cheese and candied yams sides, with corn muffin (included) - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Really good airport option. The chicken was truly delicious and the collard greens were so good. Really good airport food that tasted like real food. A nice taste of the south. Staff were fine- at. The airport terminal there was this man who worked there and was amazing - 5 star service. Wish I got his name but he made sure we were so comfortable! read more

I hate to write this but I feel like others should be aware. I had a terrible experience here and would strongly advise others to avoid it. I ordered the fried catfish, and it was immediately clear something was off, it tasted stale, like it had been sitting out under a warmer for far too long. Within hours of eating, I became extremely sick with what felt like food poisoning. Severe stomach pain, cramping, and overall discomfort completely ruined the rest of my day/night. Food safety should be the bare minimum at any establishment, especially in a busy airport where travelers rely on quick, reliable meals. This was unacceptable. I will never eat here again. read more

I used to look forward to being in the B concourse at ATL because I could eat here. A true southern meat and three where it felt like everything was made fresh and the service was friendly. It has been a few years and I was excited to be there last night. I walked up and said hi and a cold response and practically an eye roll. I ordered a small mac & cheese to go. She filled the container about a 1/4 full and handed it over. I said thanks, did my payment go thru and got a uh huh. The mac and cheese was meh, the service was not hospitable and I have not been missing out. Plenty of other options. Such a shame ... read more

Every time I pass through the Atlanta airport, Paschal's is an absolute must-stop for me. The food is consistently outstanding--full of flavor, comforting, and truly satisfying every single time. On this visit, I enjoyed baked chicken, mac and cheese, and greens, all perfectly seasoned and delicious. I even placed a second order to take home--baked chicken with rice, green beans, and a piece of catfish à la carte--because it's just that good! What made the experience even more special was the exceptional service. Tasha went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and her warm, attentive attitude truly stood out. A fantastic experience all around--great food, great service, and a guaranteed stop every time I travel through Atlanta. Happy customer--thanks again, Tasha! read more

Some of the most divisive Yelp reviews I've ever read are about airport restaurants (others include nail salons and hotels). I honestly have never had any super awful experiences with airport food *knock on wood* and was happy with my experience at Paschal's, which I found while searching for spots to eat at ATL on a recent layover. It's located in a food court area with other options. I got the chicken tender plate with two sides - collard greens and mac and cheese. The price was decent for the amount of food I got. The employees were friendly and it was a super quick transaction which I appreciated. The chicken tenders were hot and fresh, tasty and not dry - a win in my book. The collard greens were very good, seasoned well and tender. The mac and cheese was just okay, not super flavorful. Overall a decent option for food and I'd eat here again. read more

Our cross country travel took us from Portland, Oregon, and through Atlanta, before flying home to North Carolina. We had a 2-hour layover in Atlanta. After the normal bathroom stops, we began our walk to our next gate which was in the same terminal. We came to the center of Terminal B which included a directory of the food options available throughout the various terminals. My wife did a quick Google search as I scrolled through the airport directory. She checked the overall scores since eating at the airport is so hit or miss and usually not a great experience. Ultimately, she suggested Paschal's. We found it easy and it was located in the same terminal where we were. Since it was after 7pm, it was not very busy. We stood back and looked over the menu board behind the counter before approaching to order. My wife chose the three piece baked chicken meal with candied yams and green beans as her sides. I decided on the three fried tenders meal with green beans and mac and cheese for sides. Both meals came with a corn muffin. The young man behind the counter filled our to go containers and we paid. The total was approximately $33 with free fountain water. The green beans were the highlight for me, they were very tasty. The mac and cheese was baked with little flavor. My chicken tenders were crunchy on the outside but very dry on the inside. Thankfully, they gave me two packs of BBQ sauce for dipping. My wife enjoyed her meal more than I did and thought for "airport food " it was better than normal and it hit the spot. Although it satisfied our immediate needs, with so many other options we'll probably try something else next time. read more

On yet another layover in Atlanta, I found myself here looking for something a little different. I ordered the fish meal with green and rice however they were out of the rice. They substituted Mac and cheese batter recommendation so I went with it. The fish was hot and not dried and out cooked well. Surprisingly well for a buffet style serving a style and the mass amounts they push out. The greens were nice and crisp but the Mac and cheese wasn't the best. For airport food on the go Paschal's has to be one of the best in the airport. read more

This is my 2nd time in Georgia for a limited time, and unfortunately I haven't had a chance to eat Southern food the way I wanted! This was a recommendation by a very close friend (hehe) who is from the South, esp since I didn't have time to go to a restaurant. First and foremost, easy to find and close to my gate! Score! Once arrived, menu was easy to order from. I ordered a 3 piece chicken (they didn't have breast so got a thigh) and my sides were collard greens and Mac and cheese. I also got a side of mashed potatoes and gravy. My mom got the St Louis ribs with sauce on the side with corn and Mac and cheese. Both plates had a cornbread muffin. YUM! Let me say-it was all gone! Either we were really hungry or the food was delicious! Well, it was BOTH and I am a believer of this establishment. I hope to try its stand-alone restaurant in Atlanta. The people were friendly and although this was in the airport, it was very convenient and easy esp. if you are craving Southern food! I can't really explain ambience because it is the airport but I'm sure the ambiance in the Atlanta restaurant is cool. The only hard part was the cost. The total was close to $50 for two people but for airport food- this is to be expected. I am able to go to the airport lounges, including the new Centurion lounge and Delta, and we actually did after for free. However, I still am so glad we went to Paschal's which says a lot!!! Can't wait to go again! stop by here when you get a chance! read more

This was some of the best food I have ever eaten in an airport. Service was very efficient, which is very much appreciated in an airport, of course. There were a lot of meats and sides to choose from, and I liked that there were several vegetable options. I got the baked catfish with collard greens and candied yams; a corn muffin is included. I would probably not choose the candied yams next time, they were so sweet that maybe they could be called "yammed candy". They were delicious, actually, but something more savory would have been more satisfying. I know they are supposed to be sweet but...my expectations were exceeded in that regard. The fish and collard greens were excellent. The meal cost $14.49, which is a great value for an airport meal, or even for a meal elsewhere. There is a dining area nearby, a lovely woman there made sure we had napkins and she took our empty containers away. Honestly this was much better service than most restaurants seem to provide. All 4 of us loved our meals and would be happy to eat here again. read more

Price point is a little expensive but I didn't knock off stars because it's the airport so what do you expect? I ordered the half rack spare ribs with mashed potatos, gravy and collard greens. I also got the fried chicken with Mac and cheese and beans. This was my first time in Atlanta and I wanted to try real southern soul food. If that's what you're looking for Paschal's hits the spot! The chicken leg was extremely juicy and tender. The breast was kind of dry so next time I'd opt for the drumstick and thighs. The spare ribs were just okay but when mixed with their bbq sauce it's a game changer!! I loved the Mac and cheese too. Didn't think the other sides were particularly a standout. I think biggest standout items are the drumstick fried chicken and spare ribs with bbq sauce. I wanted to try a peach cobbler but it was over $6 so I passed. Overall, I would dine at Paschals again but prob the real restaurant and not at the airport for the full experience. read more

Paschal's - 3pc fried chicken dinner - Southern Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

T and I have eaten at Paschal's in Atlanta many times. Besides the civil rights significance of the restaurant, the food is really good. My husband made a beeline to Paschal's when he spotted it in Hartsfield Airport's food court . I conversely went to the yechy place in the neighboring stall. But enough about me. "How many stars?" I asked T. A whopping five for Paschal's. I piddled along with my 1.5 star meal. (All right! Enough about me.) He compared Paschal's mac and cheese to that which his southern mother made. (My mother's equivalent was lucshen kugel!) His icy cold sweet tea was apparently as good as his grandmother's. (I washed my meal down with tepid water leftover from the flight.). The fried chicken he said, was as good as Paschal's in town. (The vegetables constituting my meal were as good as um ..... Swanson's TV dinner.) So that's a recap of our respective meals. Can't wait till I'm home! read more

The service was kind and informative as I asked them if there was any meat in the collard greens and they answered (no- for all those vegetarians, pescatarians and the halal eaters-eat the fish lol). They also greeted me warmly. I got the fried cat fish with fried okra and collard greens comes with a corn muffin (drool can't wait to try) Happy that I got some soul food on my way home. Good airport choice for halal food seekers, pescatarians, and vegetarians, vegans alike as you can also have a selection of yummy vegetarian or vegan sides. read more

I landed in the familiar Atlanta Airport after over a week overseas, and the first thing I wanted was delicious Southern cuisine in the way only Atlanta can make it. So I did some digging on the best food in the airport, and I found Pascal's. The menu was exactly what I was looking for. Ambiance was normal for a counter service airport, service was also normal, let's get to the food. We got an order of the 1947 Fried Chicken 3 Pieces and a 4 Choice Vegetable Plate, because at places like this, the sides are the true star of the show. Chicken was bomb, of course. Fried crispy crispy and moist and juicy inside. Perfection. The cornbread muffins we got were crumby, but just moist enough to hold together. Good stuff. As for the sides, no complaints. The mac 'n' cheese was ooey gooey, with a nice crisp cheese crust mixed in throughout. Okra was fried just about as well as the chicken was. Very nice mash, green beans, and literally the perfect cole slaw. Chopped nice and fine, just the right amount of sweetness. Overall, I'm so glad I found this place. It's absolutely what I needed after 10 days of Japanese food. Thank you, Pascal. read more

Passing through ATL from Miami. So I am on a bit of a food high. I look around the airport. There's usual airport stuff.... TGI Fridays... A coffee shop... An Asian restaurant... A Mexican place... Then I see this place There are a number of people in line so I'm figuring they know what they're doing. I decided to jump in too. I ordered fried chicken with two sides... One being macaroni and cheese... And the other mashed potatoes and gravy It's pretty easy to call yourself a soul food restaurant and not know what you're doing. The service was great, and the people were very friendly. I decided to try sides first because they often tell the real story. I took a bite of a mac & cheese, and it was some of the best restaurant mac & cheese I've ever had. Wow!!!! My thought..."the potatoes have to be bland because it would be impossible to match that flavor burst." Wrong. The potatoes were the best potatoes I have had at a quick serve spot. Now, on to the chicken. Would it wilt under the pressure of following the great sides? Nope. Three punch knockout. The chicken was perfectly cooked, juicy on the inside, crunchy on the outside and bursting with flavor. Now I need a nap. Thankful that my next flight is almost ready to board. If you are in ATL and want a very good meal....hit this place up! And sorry I didn't take a pic....I didn't expect them to be on yelp since it's the airport. And I crushed the meal before I realized that I needed to share how awesome this place is... Make sure you say hello to Tasha and Marcia....they are incredible! read more

One hour connection home from Orlando, I was at the Atlanta airport during dinner time. I first stopped at the sushi restaurant and no one greeted or helped me. So I went to Terminal B and stumbled upon Paschal's. Located in the corner of a row of restaurants, I was greeted by two friendly ladies. I ordered the 3 dark thigh and 2 drum sticks. The two sides I picked were green beans and collated greens. Everything for $16! The fried chicken was lightly battered, perfectly seasoned, crispy and juicy. I literally inhaled all 3 pieces. I think the lady next to me, eating a salad, thought I was having a seizure because I ate so quickly. The green beans were warm, light and perfectly seasoned. The new batch of collard greens brought out were also perfectly prepared. I really enjoyed my meal and now will be fully happy for the next 4 hours home. Definitely come here and enjoy their fried chicken. It's that delicious! read more

Probably the best food court option in ATL Concourse B. I came here because the other options are too common and I wanted some solid food at a good price. When you come here, expect a line because it is pretty popular during rush hour at the airport. But, the wait is worth it. Lots of southern food menu options. I opted for the chicken tender meal to make it easier to eat while sitting outside the gate. The food is hot and the sides are fresh. Highly recommended option if in this terminal. read more
