    Love this place. Always tasty & service is fast. Being a MN guy, and after witnessing someone turn…read morevery uncomfortable after eating the top heat, my max heat stops at medium. Which I get with the sandwich because of yummy super soft bun. And then I will get a mild stripe. So satisfying.

    My husband has been been reading about this newer restaurant that has hit the Madison area. We…read morehappened to be close by around the lunch hour so took the opportunity to try it out. I didn't know what to expect as I didn't take the time to check it out. When we walked into the restaurant I reality is a fast food chain. This particular restaurant is in what use to be a Hardies. It had a cool decor and we were welcomed upon entry. As we were looking o er the order board the cashier asked us if this was our first time and replied yes. He explained the spice levels and what we could substitute for sides etc. We both ordered the #3 with cheesy fries and a drink. Our meal included a chicken slider that had coleslaw and a sauce. It was more of a sandwich than slider, and another large piece of chicken that was like a half of a breast that laid on top of a piece of white bread. Dill pickle slices, a side of sauce and the cheesy fries rounded out the meal. The sandwich was delicious with the combo of coleslaw and sauce. The larger piece of chicken was surprisingly very tender and moist. The French fries were ok. If I were to go back I would skip the cheese topping. We both jumped in the ice tea as they had unsweetened, sweet, raspberry and peach. We got the sweet tea and it was pretty weak. We head south every winter and usually if I get sweet tea I will mix a little unsweetened tea into it. This sweet tea was ok with the sweetness for me but it seemed really watered down. I'm not one for fast food but I would stop back here for a piece of chicken or take out a bucket. I'm not sure how they make their chicken but it had a dry rub over a light texture, thinking the chicken may be deep fried and then Tossed in the dry rub. Our rub was medium heat. It was borderline spicy enough but next time we may try the next step in the hot spice.

    Butterbird, I'm honestly offended we found you this late into our Madison trip…read more This place was an absolute 10/10 across the board! Vibes? immaculate. Service? incredible. Food? life-changing fried chicken, cheese curds, and cocktails that I'm still not over. Environment? somehow cozy and cool at the same time. This is the kind of place that feels way too unique to ever become a chain... which is devastating news because I desperately wish there was one in Kansas City. And honestly, that's probably why it's so special. It feels deeply Madison in the best way- intentional, high quality, and focused on doing their thing really, really well. Also, shoutout to Ian, the manager, who was amazing and made an already great experience even better with trinkets! Anyway, if you need me, I'll be emotionally processing the fact that we only got to eat here once. Can't wait to come back!

    Well, if you like fried battered chicken skin drenched in mediocre barbecue sauce this is the place…read morefor you. If that doesn't suit you, perhaps a sandwich of rotisserie chicken where the combined depth of the bread is roughly six times the height of the chicken. On a positive, the kids liked it and the cheese curds were tasty, if you crave the fried fat delicacy of Wisconsin. If I were to return and, in all seriousness, I would if others in the group persisted; I would order the chicken tenders where you are able to define where the chicken begins and the batter ends. Oh, the staff is a real positive and the decor and service outstanding. Games are available to play. The staff picks up the tables instead of you and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.
