Roaming Rooster at Woodmore Towne Centre has become one of my go-to spots, and it never disappoints. This time I ordered the Honey Butter Chicken Sandwich with cheddar cheese, along with fries and a drink. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the honey butter paired perfectly with the cheddar. The fries were hot and fresh, making the meal even better. I also ordered food for my family, and it was their first time trying Roaming Rooster. Everyone loved it! It's always nice introducing people to a place that lives up to the hype, and this was definitely one of those times. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and our food came out fresh and made to order. I've eaten at Roaming Rooster several times over the years, and they've consistently delivered great food and a great experience. If you're looking for an excellent chicken sandwich in the DMV, I highly recommend giving Roaming Rooster a try. I'll definitely be back! read more

I love Roaming Rooster. Whenever someone asks me what my favorite local fried chicken is that is not a massive national chain, I usually say this one. Long ago, when I was working in dc, I remember their food truck being all that they had and I would walk 15 minutes just to get their sandwich. And then they popped up in a food hall nearby, and now they have several locations around the DMV! I love their chicken tenders, but I am obsessed with the honey butter sandwich. And give me all the heat! I can easily handle the hot, but medium is a safer choice for me. And it's Black-owned! I saw on the menu that they have the summer refreshers, so I'm sure those are great. I'll try one next time! read more

Lunch special is a great deal. Slider, fries and a drink for 11.99. Chicken is good. Sandwich is small (slider), fries a bit wilted and greasy but with good potential. Place wasn't busy. Fun PG oriented advertising. PGC-pretty good chicken! Commanders oriented. Seats aren't the most comfortable. Still, a good place for a quick meal. read more

I have visited other Roaming Rooster locations but this was my first time visiting the Woodmore location. I went around 12:40 pm on a Monday and found a parking spot quickly, however, the parking spots in this area can fill up quickly. The restaurant was bright and more spacious than I expected. Surprisingly, it wasn't too busy when I went. There was plenty of seating available inside. I ordered an OG Nashville sandwich and fries to go. I spent about $16.40 for the food without a drink which seems a bit pricey but honestly, I think that's pretty much normal these days. There was about a 15 minute wait for the food which was fine. They have a great music selection playing as you wait. As expected, the sandwich was delicious. The fries are like that Five Guys style and I forget that every single time I go to a Roaming Rooster. I personally am not a huge fan of that style of fry but you get an insane amount. Overall, I had a good experience. The customer service was great, the sandwich was fire, and it was quick. I would go again. read more

I Love Ms Alice A She took my order and her customer service was/is amazing. The meal mild chicken sandwich with nothing on it...delicious & fries. Ms. Alice made sure I had hot fresh made to order food. Thank You Ms. Alice A. read more

While they forgot my pickles lol, I'm not mad enough to skip a good review. Lord knows I love my pickles, but this chicken! So good. I haven't been to the physical location since I ordered through a delivery app, so I can't speak to the in-person service or environment. What I can say is that I was really impressed by how crispy the chicken was and how amazing it tasted. The fries were low-key a miss, but I'll give them another shot when I go in person. I ordered the Honey Butter Chicken Sandwich and the Tenders Meal. read more

It was hottttt in there, and I'm not talking about the food -- I mean the temperature of the actual store. Uncomfortable from the moment I walked in. On top of that, people were just loitering all over the place, which didn't help the vibe at all. The food was decent, nothing that knocked me off my feet, but it held its own. Now the tea -- the tea was goooood, that part I can't argue with. Being that it's a newer spot, I'll chalk most of this up to growing pangs and give them some grace. I'm giving it a few months to get themselves together before I go back and give it a proper shot. The potential is there, they just need time to grow into it. read more

I absolutely loveeee this location! The energy, the flavor in the food all is amazing. I'm so happy I have this location close to home!

First time. We had Nashville chicken sandwich's. The medium was at the upper end of medium. Mild was good for my wife. Reasonably priced. Buyer beware the slaw has jalapeños sliced in. They had a nice table area and the gal who took our order was a peach. read more

I was happy to see a new restaurant in Woodmore, and have been excited to give them a try. I ordered 3 whole wings with a side of fries. The wings came with a slice of bread, and a few pickle slices. I have to say, I was pretty disappointed with the wings. While they had a nice crunch and were cooked perfectly, they lacked flavor. The fries were good taste wise, but extremely oily and all the pieces were tiny. I maybe had 5 pieces that were normal fry length and not tiny bits. I'd probably visit again to give the chicken sandwiches a try. Service was good. The person at the register was kind and attentive. I did ask a question about the rooster sauce, and she had no idea what the sauce was like (mild, spicy, sweet...), but gave me a sauce to try with my meal. It's in Woodmore Towncenter, so there was plenty of parking available. read more

Was excited to see this place finally opened and decided to venture over for dinner after working late tonight. I should've given it some time before venturing over. The wait time for my food was insane. I was quoted 20 minutes and figured ok- that's not so bad. So I went ahead and placed my order, which was a Chicken Club spicy, Veggie Roo mild and an order of fries. Mind you the lobby and dining area was full of patrons also WAITING...but I said to myself, "the cashier said 15-20 mins so it can't be that bad." I ventured over to crumble cookie lol Starbucks...gas'd up at Costco, then circled back around and guess what?!!!?? My food wasn't ready. Took me about 25 mins. About 40 mins in- honestly I wanted to just cancel the order and go home! The store was clean...brand new...I mean today was really the second day of being open... When I finally received my food- my fries were soggy and drenched in oil...was very disappointed in that. My Oyster Mushroom Veggie sandwich was pretty tasty. I asked for mild, however it was really spicy & the chicken club, that was for my husband. I'm sure we'll venture back over eventually. My husband actually loves this restaurant and now we don't have to travel too far get it. Oh & the playlist was definitely a vibe! Happy Yelping! read more

Got takeout for the family as we were passing by Woodmoore Town Center. The online ordering was easy. Our order was ready just when they said. The staff was friendly. Our daughters (9 and 11) really enjoyed the chicken tenders and fries (they are chicken tender and french fry connoisseurs). My Chicken Club (medium heat) was great. They give you a ton of fries, so much we could not eat them all. Great takeout experience with no complaints. read more

While everything at Roaming Rooster is good, I am particularly impressed with The Veggie Roo. I eat chicken so I'm actually surprised I like their vegetarian offering as much as I do. Perfect choice when you don't want chicken but still want a flavorful sandwich. read more

I finally made it to the New Location!!!.. 10-10-25... it was very spacious with lots of seating enough tables and chairs for several dinees. It was immaculate in cleanliness from the countertop service area to the pick up orders and over to the fountain soda machine!.. several possible Odes to the Area on the wall esp the What's the deal pickles from local radio station with Huggy Lowdown & Chris Paul, the Commanders colors & #17 with the Famous Honey Butter sandwich OR that's the order number for the meal lmaoo idk. it's love for PGC . The kitchen appears to be smaller than I had imagined but they make it work!! All of the locations have their own unique style set up. The customer service was pleasant and the place organized!... The Food!!... Mother has been craving the honey butter so she got that! , Fries and I got the limited time Lunch Special I call it The Beltway Box- where you get Either ORs- 1 Slider OR 2 Tenders OR 2 Wings OR something else lol I forgot but it automatically comes with a Small Fry (it comes in the same box!! so don't look for a cup of fries! , and a nice sized fountain drink. The BELTWAY menu items are all grouped together so you think @1st you're getting all those items for 11.99 but the OR is small and in yellow writing on a red backdrop! because I asked as well as 2 others and we were told the breakdown!. Either way you go it's worth it!!... I'll be back to try the whole lineup!! of the Beltway Boxes! Lmao it's a great deal!, nice portion size even the nuggets are thick cut fresh chicken breasts pieces!! I only know because I was once a RR worker of a different location Prepping soo many boxes of fresh chicken breasts! so you're getting REAL chicken mest NOT out of a fast food brown bag the work is put in from prep-Batter!! To twice cut REAL potatoes read more

I stopped in and was greeted with a very warm welcome and friendly smile! The restaurant was clean and had lots of seating available. The young lady confirmed it was my first visit and made fantastic suggestions. I went with the club sandwich and a ton of fries which was a great choice. The chicken was tender, juicy and flavorful. The only improvement I would make is making sure my cheese was melted. read more

Roaming Rooster in Lanham has officially earned a top spot in my rotation! From the cookie to the wings and buffalo chicken sandwich, everything was spot-on and consistent, flavorful, and worth every bite. But the real star of the show? The Veggie Roo. A fried oyster mushroom, cooked to absolute perfection--golden, crispy outside, tender and juicy inside. And the kicker? I'm **not even vegetarian**! I wanted to try something new, and this dish blew me away. The depth of flavor, the satisfying crunch--it's easily one of the most exciting bites I've had in a while. Beyond the food, the hospitality was just as memorable. The staff and owners created such a welcoming atmosphere, but a special shoutout to Gabriella, who was incredibly kind and kept checking in on us. That kind of care and attention takes an already great meal to the next level. For bold flavors, quality ingredients, and an unbeatable experience, Roaming Rooster is the move. If you're looking for top-tier fried chicken--or just want to surprise yourself with something new--this spot delivers every time. Highly recommend! read more

Wanted to shout out the hospitality here! Wasn't sure what to expect when I brought my white ass in there, but had my expectations high because the food looked amazing. The man taking our order was really friendly and the woman (who I assume was the manager on shift) was so sweet!! She offered some of their beverages and a sample of their mac and cheese and both were great. I also got the honey butter chicken sandwich and it was indeed amazing. If I'm in the area again, definitely gonna come back :) read more

This was my second time at this location. Sandwich was delicious, customer service was perfect!! read more

This location needs to hire more cooks and and another cash register. There was only 1 person cooking and 1 person on the 1 register they had. This location is too busy not to be fully staffed read more

What in the absolutely amazing chicken sandwich is this! It was my first time visiting but I have no clue how, I've been hearing about this place for years but I guess I was never close to one until now. When I say hands down the best chicken sandwich. The customer service was great, I couldn't decide on what sandwich to get buy they explained it to me and a guy that works there sealed the deal and said, "Butter Chicken" and that was the best decision. The fries were trash, I'm confused on how the sandwich is a dime but the fries no bueno. I will definitely return! read more

So... I might be a rare hold out here but I was highly disappointed with my lunch order. I ordered the strips and fries. Fries were soggy - completely inedible. And the "strips" were the teeniest tiniest things. Perhaps there are better menu items with better value. This ... wasn't that. GK read more

Being from New York, I had not heard of Roaming Rooster but I'm always on the lookout for a worthy cheeseburger alternative. I promised my excellent server Nate that I would leave a good review so here it is: The chicken and fixings aside this is among the best fried dishes I've ever eaten. It is crispy on the outside and succulent inside. This is how a black and blue burger should be cooked but never is. Recommended. read more

Best hot chicken sandwiches in the region and I'm so glad they opened this new location. It's larger than the Crofton location with dine in options and the staff is friendly and professional. Last time there I was in and out within 10 mins for my entire family. Highly recommend! read more

This is a staple in my weekly diet. Their Nashville hot chicken sandwich is my go to. The rest of the menu is just as good. Favorite location is Bladensburg. Always order ahead for pickup. Service could be slow at times. No real ambiance to talk about. read more
