    They've been slingin' chicken for decades from Miller's on the West Side of Athens. They have a…read moremorning crowd of people who work with their hands loading up on breakfast sandwiches and then a steady stream until the 7pm close. So don't get a hankering for the best chicken tenders (each one is essentially a whole flattened breast) or the more old school offerings like fried hearts, gizzards, or livers. You can get those in bulk and you might ask who would ever...? My high school crew does once a year when the loser of our previous year's fantasy football league caters the next year's draft, that's who. The reason to go is the fried chicken but you can order skinless if you want to behave. They also sell biscuits and multiple sizes of cole slaw, mashed potatoes and gravy, and potato salad. You can dine in at one of probably ten tables and a surprising number of people do. But for me it is about a bucket and some sides for a picnic or that quick decision when plans to make dinner at home go sideways. Parking for 10 or so cars available in front and it is rarely full for long if at all. As a college town, Athens' restaurant scene typically caters to the students. And Miller's is definitely student friendly. But while the students flock to the latest thing (new Cane's on Court Street) the locals know that Miller's is Athens true chicken king. The family business has earned loyalty over the generations. And just know, if you are back in Athens looking for some chicken nostalgia in late summer, make sure you don't land on County Fair Week in August. That is the one week a year they are closed at Miller's.

    Amazing fried chicken! Service was good and atmosphere just like a diner! Mac and cheese definitely…read moreworth getting!

    The last time I had come here I wanted to try this place; however, it was not a national chain like…read moreWings and Rings or Buffalo Wild Wings and so I was kind of wary (I still had it at the back of my mind to try it at some point). This time around, I tried it yesterday and it was not bad. Their wings are basically different from others because it seems like they make sure the naked wing (which may defeat the purpose of it being called naked depending on how someone terms it) is extra crispy. Then they seem to take the wing and douse it in sauce (which I love). Cost: So I ended up getting two- 6 piece wings, one with the Wango sauce and one with Mahalo Que. It was a Monday and so 6 wings for $4.74. The cost, even with the discount, is still priced on average with other wing places. I feel so bad that the $0.50 wings may be a thing of the past (although, Papa Johns did have an offer a few months ago where this was the case). Rivals like Wingstop and Pizza Hut have wings for either $1.00 a wing (which is outrageous) and around $0.80+, respectively. Online ordering: What I did not like about the actual online ordering was that none of the flavors were scaled on spiciness (mild to hot or hot to mild), they were just listed in some order (at least from the ordering page I had seen). The Wango was pretty spicy, could have used a forewarning for that. Nevertheless, the wings were good. Chain as a whole: Continued ranting about the chain as a whole; they, like Wingstop, also charge for everything. Some wing places give dipping sauces for free (at least one) and they include celery and carrots or celery all for around $10 (Wings and Rings, I think Buffalo Wild Wings used to). I did see that there is actually a separate combo that one could get this addition. It will be extra though. If one wants a specific type of wing, they charge that per wing (drums and flats). Wings and Rings was the first wing place that I was shocked to find that one could choose either or and not be charged extra (I like drums more than I do flats). I cannot state that the wings from here were better than Wings and Rings, Wingstop, or even Papa Johns (which one could find insulting since Papa Johns to some may not even be a place that should specialize in wings, they are a pizza place). Customer service: Now addressing the customer service, it seemed like it has gotten better. Or maybe not? When I went in, it was around 4-5 p.m. and so people were probably still at work and so one table was being served when I was there for my pick up order. I did have one server ask if I would like a cup of water, that was a nice gesture. Then I had another ask if I was being assisted. That was nice. I guess if the place is not crowded, it would make a difference if a server blatantly missed serving someone. Haha. For people looking at reviews, this is how I grade: 3 star does not necessarily mean the place I reviewed is bad, it is just average. 4 star means that there was something different, maybe the price is what I would consider affordable or one could customize without extra fees. This place would have been given a four if the wings were like $0.50. Additionally, they would have been given a four if they allowed one to select a type of wing like drums or flats for free (it is so subjective to grade on this, however, I thought I would never see the day that this would have been a possibility, Wings and Rings definitely addressed this aspect). 5 star is rare. The wings would have to be something that I would have never had before and pretty much the chain would have had to have the items listed under 4 star. It kind of stinks though that when I came on here to review this place, that the business already had a 3 star rating and even with that rating, the reviews for that rating were not really good.

    Stopped for lunch for the first time at 1:30pm on a Friday. It wasn't busy but my experience wasn't…read moregood. It took 20 minutes to get waited on. I ordered a burger with the hot ranch and Mac and cheese and a mountain dew no ice. The soda came with ice, and the Mac was not even warm. The burger didn't have the hot ranch on it. I asked for it and 20 minutes later I just said screw it and ate it without it. While the burger was good, I was not happy with the service that never came. I understand Ice is a mistake but mistake after mistake and blame it on being busy. I will not be back
