Got the chicken with avocado slaw sandwich and it was substantial. Enjoyed the pickled onions in it. Order at the kiosk or in person at T1, and your name will pop up on the screen. The order entry is quick but the wait line is kinda long. Let them know if you are tight on time (as we were running close to the end of our boarding time) and they will prioritize your order. read more

Starbird - Chicken sandwich with avocado slaw - Chicken Shop Near Me

Amazing food and easy to order in the airport on on the website as you get dropped off. I love the salads so fresh and tasty especially the Thai chicken. Also had one of the chicken sandwiches on my last visit and I will say it's a little bit messy ha ha ha but hot chicken is yummy! It's really busy because they make the food to order. So you can order ahead with your phone or you can walk straight up to the kiosk and order they have quite a few of them so it does not take long to order but you might have to wait 5 to 10 minutes to receive your food depending on how busy it is. This is a nice clean area to eat in the airport of San Francisco. If you are looking for a place that has something for everyone this is it!! read more

Not bad for airport food. I was surprised, especially since the price is reasonable for airport food. Ordering is quick and convenient as you can order from the kiosk. The bacon, egg and cheese sandwich was pretty good. Ingredients tasted fresh and were made to order. The tater tots were fluffy and crispy. I also ordered a side of truffle aioli and it tasted perfectly truffle-ly. Terminal 1 has slim pickings for food - but this was a decent quick breakfast location. read more

Starbird in SFO Terminal 1, right next to Gate B13, is a solid airport stop. I have been their fan a long time as I have seen more of their locations open up around the Bay. I got their chicken sandwich for lunch, and it was fresh, crispy, and satisfying. Convenient ordering at the kiosk and the food came out fast. Airport prices are expected, but I'd happily stop here again. read more

Really good seasoned fries with yummy dipping sauces. I got the blazin ranch, greek yogurt ranch, and thai chili aioli. I liked the blazin ranch sauce the best. Spicy and creamy, just right. Their donut wasn't as fresh but I still enjoyed a couple bites of it. read more

Located next to Gate B14, Starbird is great for fried chicken which travels well. Both with regards to the food (the crust on the chicken is tender but still dry enough that it'll last a while if you want to eat it on the plane) and the to-go box/container which it comes in is great for transport too. I typically get the salads (sturdy container too, with a plastic lid) but this time I grabbed their tender box. Fantastic, with delicious fragrant chicken and sauces. Fries are alright but nothing special. Wait is pretty short, maybe 5 minutes as Starbird usually is popular enough that there's always some customers at it in SFO. The spot has nice wood ambiance but it's very much grab and go and right next to foot traffic. There's some seating, but not much, though there's more seating closer towards the security checkpoint or further into the terminal (around the B20+ gate numbers). read more

Overpriced but yummy airport food. Enjoyed the batter on the tenders and the sauces. I will say the sauces are on the sweeter side. Lots of fries! Hubby liked his sandwich too, would dine here again if we're ever nearby in a gate! read more

We normally eat Starbird outside of the airport and I'll admit, I usually eat their salads but today I was at the airport and ordered Nashville Tenders (or so they say). My first complaint is their wooden utensils. No one likes using the wooden spoon inside the ice cream containers, why would they like the utensils to be that way? It's so dry, stick to your tongue and teeth, horrible. The tines on the fork couldn't stab anything, they are so short. Second, the alleged Nashville Tenders. There's nothing Nashville about them other than the color. No smokey flavor and no heat. The breading was dry probably due to the heat lamps. Most of all, the meat reminded me of the viral chicken videos we are seeing with chicken meat that frays like it's strands sewn together. When you try to cut it, it just falls apart in strings. It's nearly impossible to actually get a bite. The breading is the only thing that holds but then the meat nearly poofs into nothing. It's very odd and wasn't worth eating. I spent $20 on breaded string meat that I didn't eat. read more

We had two chicken salads to take on the plane with us and both were fantastic! Extremely tasty, even eating it on the plane an hour later. Really great customer service too!!! read more

I really enjoy starbird and I'm always so excited when I come to the city, cause I can get the best Nashville tenders outside of Nashville! Starbird is a typical chicken restaurant, serving several flavors of tenders, with different sauces to choose from. I love the fact that they serve French fries, because I am so tired of chicken places pairing tenders with waffle fries(it just rubs me the wrong way). It's an airport spot, so expect it to be expensive, but they do not go light on the amount of food you get. I'm usually able to starch mine to 2 or 3 meals. Make sure you eat the fries right away, as they aren't too good reheated, and ask for extra sauce (the cups are too tiny for the size of the tenders). Will definitely be back! read more

First time trying Starbird before a flight out of SFO. Ordering is pretty straightforward on the kiosk. I got the Chicken Chop Salad and some fries. Both were pretty good. I didn't like the dressing as much so only used half of it. The fries were not bad, nothing special. read more

After landed from a long flight from the East Coast, we decided to grab a quick bite before heading home. The chicken Cobb salad (extra spicy) was so good' I could tell they used some fresh quality ingredients in their salad. The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist in the inside. The service was quick as you can place an order yourself and they will call you name when your order is ready. read more

ABSOLUTELY NOT. As an airport employee who used to frequent this spot, their service and quality Have PLUMMETED. I waited 23 minutes for a sandwich, 5 of which it sat on a counter while multiple employees avoided simply passing. me. a. bag. Your management should be embarrassed and ashamed. I'm going to share my story with all my coworkers and customers as a big thank* you for today's stressful lunch. *f read more

Delicious chicken tenders & fries at this Starbird location. I like the variety of food choices at the SFO airport. I ordered the 3 piece classic tenders with fries from the kiosk. Wait time was less than 5 minutes and the food came out piping hot! The order comes with two sauces of your choosing. The chicken is tasty, moist inside and nice and crunchy on the outside. There's limited seating at the storefront, but plenty of seating throughout the terminal to enjoy your food. read more

Starbird - Breakfast chicken and egg sandwich - Chicken Shop Near Me

Unfortunately everything sounded better than it tasted. I was under the illusion that I was choosing a semi-healthy option... But the chicken was heavily breaded, mostly breading with very little chicken. It had been cooked prior to ordering and kept warm under the warming lights making the chicken very dry. The vegetables seemed fresh, but the dressing was overpowering. I had the Cobb Salad and the dressing was primarily chipotle flavored barley a hint of vinaigrette, the chipotle flavor was just too over powering. The truffle fries were soggy, and they forgot to give me the aïoli to go with them. It's airport food, so I probably shouldn't have been as disappointed as I was. read more

Very delicious. The fries are so good and the chicken sandwich blends taste fabulously. I love the little wooden utensils and it didn't cost two legs and an arm like that other shop. read more

I grabbed some fries @ Starbird @ SFO while waiting for my flight. They were better than expected. Hot and crispy. And the "star sauce" was good, like a sweet ranch type thing. The ambience was SFO. Would def visit again. read more

Starbird - Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me

Restaurant in the SFO airport (San Francisco, CA), near gate B14. Quick and easy to-go chicken and actually tasted pretty decent, and decently priced for the area. They only serve chicken product like strips, salads and sandwiches, regular or spicy; we got the regular chicken strips and my picky husband even thought it was good. Seemed they had just cooked the chicken, and fries were good- I like them crispy, but B liked them not crispy. We got a 4 piece chicken strips and added extra 3 strips to share, and fries with extra sauce and came out to be about $25. Plenty of food for two. I enjoyed the star sauce and ranch too. They charge tax + employee benefits charge. Staff was quick and friendly with how busy it was. You order at a kiosk and pick up at the counter- pretty simple process. There is seating nearby to eat right away, or take it to your gate- I even saw a few bring it on the plane to enjoy. We actually went back and got the cookie ice cream sandwich for dessert and was two oatmeal cookies with ice cream covered in chocolate- it's an old San Francisco dessert recipe and was good. Lots of other desserts too- I wanted to try the strawberry crispy treat. read more

Great quality chicken and sandwich. Fries were solid and the service was quick. Price is comparable to everything else around it. The place could be cleaner. Napkin/utensil stations were a bit messy and pendant lights were very dirty. Otherwise, appreciate and recommend this place. read more

As far as airport fare goes, this place was pretty decent! I got their classic sandwich, the starbird 2.0. It was pretty good! A tingly spicy kick from the sauce (?), slaw with shreds of kale felt very San Francisco, and mashed avocado that tasted a bit more like guacamole. I have to give a special shoutout to the man who was handing out the sandwiches when I visited, an older black man who greeted everyone with outstanding friendliness and cheer. He definitely brightened my day, and I hope he's getting noticed (and given a raise!!) by management. read more

Had to grab something to eat so I went with tater tots. It's not breakfast food but I was craving something potato and fried so why not? Self order kiosk and then waited for my order.

I regularly fly out of terminal 1, about 2-3x a month. Highlight is getting fresh, filling, and amazing chicken from here. Staff is fast and friendly, I always enjoy hearing Jackson call out my name! Also easy to order on kiosk, line and tables nearby, read more

Pleasantly surprised how good this was! As far as airport food goes, I usually don't expect much. Still it was ~$15 for a breakfast sandwich but that's to be expected. Super quick service; order on the kiosk and they'll call your name when it's ready. The chicken and the egg sandwich for breakfast was soo good. Tender and juicy chicken, and even the egg was fluffy! read more

Thankfully, it was open late while other options were closed. Friendly service, both at the register and counter. Chicken was very tender, sauces helped, but actually very good as is. The fries were just okay, but definitely rivals (if not better with their service) other places like Raising Cane's, Popeye's, KFC, Chick-fil-A. A great choice if you're deciding between food options at Terminal 1. read more

Nice spot, I like there's a designated parking garage. Love their salads. Generous portions, very flavorful and feels healthy.

Unfortunately, i experienced unacceptable service at this Starbird in the airport terminal 1. I really like Starbird so it was very upsetting how my experience was here at this location. On Monday night around 6 or 7, I was waiting almost 10 minutes in line and the woman cashier (short/stocky), did not take my order right away. Once she did, the interaction made me feel uncomfortable as she was lightly rude and has attitude. read more

I asked if they had water, and they said they don't offer free water. Thats a crappy business

Got a chicken sandwich and it was not good very bland very dry too much rec room and no seasoning but a hot mayonnaise sauce that taste terrible. The surf is slow, but the place was clean. read more

One of the best chicken sandwiches I've had and great sauces. Did not like the fries the reason not being a 5.

Airport food quality is never the best, but I was surprised by how great Starbird's food tasted. I loved the cardboard box the sandwich comes in. It helps keep the toppings from falling out after every bite. Service was fast and friendly. I needed to repackage my food and they happily provided extra boxes and paper bags for me. You can place your order yourself using the kiosk making it easier to customize your order. read more

The chicken katsu salad is to die for, the dressing is so creamy and chicken is just perfect. Amazing airport spot

Good quality chicken breakfast sandwich. The danish was also good. The seating area could use a little clean up, ppl tend to pick up their trash, but there were quite a few crumbs. Not sure if this is an airport problem or a starbird problem. read more
