Me and wife came here for lunch since we were in the mood for a sandwich. The place is located in downtown and plenty of parking in back by the park. I got the chicken sandwich with the fried chicken. It's three fried chicken fingers and the wife got the club. Both came with a side of fries. My sandwich was fantastic. The chicken was really good. I must say one of the better chicken sandwiches I've had. And even though crinkle cut fries aren't my favorite these were really good and they give you a good portion. The wife really liked her club sandwich as well. I had to try it for myself since I almost got that also. Hard to say which sandwich I liked more. The club is great. They use boars head meats and you can tell it's not cheap ham or turkey. Good quality. All ingredients were fresh. Can't recommend enough will definitely be back. read more

One of the most consistent lunch places in town. The food is always good and the prices are reasonable. Been this way for many many years

This place is nostalgic as it has great memories of Auburn University athletics. The food was awesome and we frequent this restaurant often. The staff is friendly/polite and the service is excellent. Plenty of room for seating and the atmosphere takes you back in time. If you like chicken gizzards this is your place. They got em'. I love their grilled chicken fingers and their sub sandwiches are off the chain. Don't hesitate to visit this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

Always consistent and good! Owners are local and such amazing additions to the downtown vibe.

Still trying to figure out how 3 sandwiches cost $53.00. OK, Tuesday, the day we went in, The special is a reuben, and your drink is free. Just says free drink. We ordered 2 Reubens W/free drink, another sandwich w/water. When placing the order, was asked what size drink. Ones a regular, ones a large. We opted for 2 large. So, 3 sandwiches at $12.99 each. We also ordered a full side of chips, which was even verified by a staff person, wasn't a full side, but just a sub for fries. So, 3x 12.99 =$38.97. 9% tax is $3.50..... not adding up guys. read more

Yummy! Everything is good here! Tell Gena I sent you. Chicken fingers, boars head sandwiches, shrimp, catfish....yum!

It's 2025 and they still haven't figured out how a phone works. Good food. Impossible to order.

Great food with very friendly service. Let the lady at the counter know it was our first time there and she helped us decide on the fried vs grilled tenders. I got the chicken sandwitch with grilled chicken and my husband got the wings and tenders basket, both came out fresh and the house made sauces were also good. Will be back in the future! read more

Delicious food, great service. Came here on a choir trip from Georgia, wonderful spot. Chicken seasoned well, everything fresh. Sauces made in house. Will definitely recommend anyone stopping through Opelika to try them out! read more

Great service and friendly staff. Delicious chicken - both grilled and fried. Try the special sauce - goes great with the chicken. Portions are large. Sandwiches have a LOT of meat on them - be prepared to open wide. Lol. Cole slaw is really good, too. Super laid back atmosphere and a handful of TVs tuned into sports. read more

Great chicken. Will definitely return when visiting auburn. A historic gem that serves great food.

One of my favorite places to go downtown for sandwiches. It's very good. I always wind up getting the turkey gobbler can't go wrong.

I had the wings and fries combo. Both were great and the wing sauce was perfect. Service was very friendly and helpful despite being in the middle of lunch rush. read more

The Breeze Way - Grilled Chicken Basket - Sandwiches Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

"This is what chicken is really supposed to taste like!" - My dad, after trying the most flavorful grilled chicken My dad and I stumbled upon The Breeze Way for lunch recently, and we are so glad we did.We both ordered chicken baskets - he got the snack basket and I got the chicken and cheese. The snack basket is the perfect size, but I really wanted to try the mozzarella sticks. We got the fried chicken fingers, not realizing that the grilled chicken was their speciality. Luckily, one of the women working there overheard/found out it was our first time and brought each of us a grilled chicken tender as well. Honestly, I have never had grilled chicken be that tender and flavorful. I immediately regretted not getting grilled. ... But then I tried the fried chicken that I ordered, and it was also amazing. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the instead. The hot sauce is a perfect level of hot, but honestly, the chicken has such great flavor not sauce is necessary. The fries, mozzarella sticks and bread were all fine. Nothing to write home about, but you don't go to a chicken place for the French fries or Texas toast. Location: The Breeze Way is in the downtown section of Opelika and with its dark sign, it can be easy to miss. The interior is not fancy, but lots of tables and, of course, a long church bench. Price: This price is very reasonable especially for the quality of the chicken. Baskets are between $6-8, respectively. Drinks aren't included, which is not a big deal to me. P.S. My dad doesn't believe any written review can do this place justice because you just have to go. read more

Great local business. Best coleslaw around IMHO. Food and atmosphere are like home. Good food and nice people. Richard Barnes read more

Highly recommend seating, food and the very good waiters are very nice first time customers get a free sample. They treat you like family.

Great food, large portions, and good prices. I tried the 747 and could not eat all of it. Next time I plan to try the club sandwich after I heard how good it is. read more

I loved the food here and the prices were good! I got a snack basket with 2 grilled chicken strips and 1 fried strip. Came with fries and Texas toast. I also ordered a side of fried okra and a tea. Everything was delicious! The service was very friendly. I will definitely eat here again. read more

Great local place in downtown Opelika. Great sandwiches and fries. Best turkey sub I've ever had! The they've got a daily special for a free drink which is always a nice bonus. I'll be coming back again and again. read more

I ordered a club sandwich, and my friend ordered the gobbler which was supposed to be a turkey sandwich. When they brought his sandwich to him, it was a ham sandwich. He went back to the counter to tell them that they had given him the wrong sandwich, and everyone behind the counter, and a woman in the kitchen started screaming at him. they said that that was what he ordered and that was what he got. My friend said it was ham, not turkey, but they insisted it was the correct sandwich, and when he asked for his money back, they refused, saying he got the correct sandwich. After five minutes arguing, he threw the sandwich into the garbage can told him we would never come back to their establishment ever again, and we left. at that time I had eaten half of the club sandwich, which was soggy and pretty tasteless so I was not impressed with that either. So, indeed, we will never go there again. Customer service should be your number one priority and they failed big time at that. read more

So glad I was taken to this place! Chicken fingers, chicken salad sandwich. BLT, all on sourdough bread. So good. The French fries were perfect. Been twice in last 3 days. This is my new go to place! Oh and family owned. They were all nice. You won't be disappointed. read more

Inside a little cringe but food and service was excellent ! Loved sitting outside to eat!

Wow! Passing through and found this place. Lucky us! I had The 747, a basket that has wings, chicken tenders, Texas toast, and fries. I added a side of coleslaw. Gina at the register told me I could do half of my chicken tenders fried and the other half house-marinated and grilled. Had I known their house marinade was that good, I would've gotten them all grilled up. SO GOOD. Make sure you try some of their zingy sauce. And then I found out Gina is the owner! She was warm and obviously naturally good with people. Hope to come back this way to get it in again! Thanks y'all!! read more

My family and I had excellent service. We were celebrating one of the family members' 50th birthday. Everyone enjoyed their food. I, of course, love the bread pudding. Gail was very friendly to us. Thank you. read more

Almost 20 years ago I went here with my buddy Grant. We were looking for good wings and the word on the street was that we'd have to hike over to Opelika to try them at The Breezeway. Well Grant wanted to be a real man and got the super ridiculously hot ones while I just got hot. The cashier was like "are you sure you want them that hot?" to Grant, but he confidently said yeah. Once we sat down with our sweet teas and started eating, Grant smirked at me saying how it wasn't that hot. I was nibbling on my wings too which were good and just right heat-wise. After a few though, the cashier guy smugly walked over and leaned up against a nearby chair and asked Grant how his wings were. By this time, Grant was sweating and looking to get a refill of his tea to cool him off. Yep they were pretty freaking hot. Flash forward to Dec 30, 2010 and I finally returned to the Breezeway. it looked much like I recall it had from the 1990s when I was last there. The area is actually trendy now, near Eighth and Rail. The wings were still good but it seemed like they served a whole lot more now than they had before. I didn't go mega-hot, but the 'hot' ones I got weren't really that hot - do I dare to try the freaky heat next time? Stay tuned... Hopefully it won't be in another 20 years. read more

After my friends told me about this restaurant, I finally came for good fried chicken fingers. The inside of the restaurant was clean, and baby's-breath on every table was very adorable. The basket didn't include the drink, but 7.99 of all the food was amazing. The chicken fingers were well seasoned, very tender, and juicy. The house sauce was similar to Zaxby's sauce but mixed with yum yum sauce. The coleslaw was little watery and the fries seemed like the ones from the frozen section. I would definitely come here if I'm craving for some good chicken fingers. read more

The Breeze Way - Breeze Way Basket - Amazing - Sandwiches Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

The restaurant looks dangerous on the outside but warm on the inside, especially on a cold spring evening. The service was nice and the prices were reasonable. $4.99 got me a snack size meal of generous portions with a Texas toast. I was in a food coma until lunch the next day. I feel the start to any good meal starts with crinkle fries. Therefore, my review already starts out unfairly high. The steak nugget basket consisted of nuggets but with cheap ground up steak. Because I was expecting that flavor and taste of cheap steak, I was satisfied. For those accustomed to sirloin, eating this for fun would be a terrible idea. read more

The Breeze Way - Steak nugget basket - Sandwiches Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

Some of the best chicken tenders I have ever had. I'm a picky eater and really only eat chicken tenders so that is saying a lot. Highly recommend the grilled tenders! Definitely a hole in the wall type of place which makes it even better. read more

While visiting a friend in Opelika, he recommended this restaurant for great chicken fingers. Not only were the chicken fingers great, the Reuben Sandwich was delicious. And if that was not good enough, we topped our meal off with their bread pudding. I would put their bread pudding up against Commanders Palace's bread pudding soufflé. There was a great atmosphere in an old setting. A very friendly staff and setting. I am now trying to think of another reason to make the two hour trip so that we can chow down again real soon. read more

Carried food out which I feel isnt a fair fight! However it was not the best...fries soggy and the meat on ruben was fatty and tough. Gonna try again for dine in read more

Don't get me wrong, this place is really reasonably priced, and has a very nice staff. The food is cooked to order and delicious. Only reason it didn't receive 5 stars was due to the fries and shrimp being a little lacking, and the tables/booths could use a good update. It's a hole in the wall joint that looks like not much has changed in its 27 years, which is completely fine because the wings are amaaaazing. They're crispy, moist, and the hot flavor is incredible. They have a hint of honey which balances out the heat perfectly. We're kicking ourselves for living in Auburn for 4 years and not having tried them sooner. The fried chicken tenders are pretty good, but the grilled tenders are 10 times better, marinated and juicy. We'll be back soon! read more

The only reason I don't give this wonderful little hole in the wall 5 stars is nobody was wiping off the tables between customers and it was a bit warm in there for a hot August afternoon... Otherwise, the food was great! I had the fried chicken salad, huge plate! delicious! Mom had the BLT and fries and she was well pleased! The fried green beans are a must try if you never have! (the reason I chose this place for lunch)! Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area. Free parking at the Baptist church on the corner. Not a busy road, so easy access. read more

Rolled the dice and ordered take out here. Mistake. Fried pickles were way too salty. Chicken salad actually tasted like burnt chicken was used. Grilled chicken fingers were just mediocre. Hot wings were average at beat. Took 41 minutes from time I got in line until I walked out the door. No plans to go back. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed the charm & character of The Breezeway. I got the Gobbler sandwich & my husband the Reuben. Both tasty. We told the owners that it was our first time there & the next thing you know, they brought us some fried chicken with 3 different home made dipping sauces & eventually some barbecued chicken, on the house. Very friendly & welcoming. I wish we lived closer. read more

My wife and I were looking for a place to grab lunch as we came into town from staying at the Marriott about 6 miles away. Yelp came to the rescue. This place is great - fresh veggies on our club sandwiches, great tasting and portion of meats, my sourdough bread was grilled perfectly, fries crispy as we asked and the service was very very friendly. We definitely would come back again! read more

Always been a Great place to eat but Wow have the Chicken Finger shrunk. If you take a larger then normal bite you can down one in one single bite. Guess it figures the fingers get smaller and the price gets larger. read more
