This place is... AWESOME! This is coming from someone who only wishes Bend had a Bojangles or Raising Canes. The Chicken Shanty is right up there with both. Freakin' delicious! I have found my place. If you have been looking for the right place for some good chicken, definitely. I work from home in Sisters with an office in Bend. This just might be my reason to work in the office more often. The team there was super friendly. Took my first order to go, my 2nd visit (the day after my 1st visit) we stayed and ate there. It was a chill place to dine if if you so choose! Even saw the Best Buy dude there 2 times in a row. Chicken and Waffles for the Win! read more

The servers were very friendly but I thought the chicken selections we had were average at best. The chicken avocado bacon wrap was minus bacon, no avocado (unless the wrap was the avocado) and had too much pimento cheese. Based on previous reviews, maybe you'll like it, maybe you won't read more

Was greeted promptly by two happy, smiling employees. They made great suggestions, the food was great and everyone raved about their honey mustard. Would come back! read more

The staff are really friendly and nice, they even gave me an extra chicken strip! They play music and have a good amount of seats to dine at. Great place, would go again! If you order online sometimes they add a little thanks on the box! read more

Great chicken! Portion size is very generous! It took a little longer than most fast food, but was well worth the wait. It's a little on the smaller side so might get crowded in busy times. All in all - two thumbs up! read more

Fast casual chicken joint, part of an Oregon chain. Not bad if you like fast food. - Nashville sandwich: tasty, not very spicy. If you're looking for something similar to a real Nashville, look elsewhere. This one not only fails the spicy criterion but their sauce is way too sweet. - Fries are decent. Located in the Cascades Village Shopping Center below Moose Sisters. read more

I'll give the service a big thumbs up Lady working the front was super nice and accommodating I ordered a chicken wrap, was loaded with lettuce and sauce Barely any chicken Wrap was cut in half and one half had no chicken in it at all Took order to go Box felt heavy so I didn't even take a look until I was where I was heading Pretty disappointed cause I love a good chicken wrap They could have had my business for years to come but too bad Only a one time guy now Note- don't skimp Or at least have enough chicken to match how much lettuce was in there read more

If you're thinking chicken strips, wings or chicken sandwiches, you need to try this place. The chicken is fresh and not frozen and they cook it to order. You can taste the difference. The sauces are all treat too. The food took a few minutes but you would expect that for real food. Great find and we will be back. read more

Taste of the South! Super tender chicken, made to perfection! Awesome choices of sauces and dragonfruit sauce wasn't something I have ever heard of and it was fantastic!!! Conveniently located off of 97 by Trader Joes, friendly customer service, and affordable! :) This may become a weekly outing! read more

Food and service was amazing. The entire family enjoyed it thoroughly. I recommend the Nashville hot chicken. Wife also got a coconut breaded chicken which was a really good and a nice option if you down like spice. We are a sauce couple and they have a ton of option. House made ranch which is a pillar of a good chicken restaurant. plus another 10 or so sauces. voodoo is also a good option. read more

Best chicken sandwich I've had- at least that I can remember having. Juicy and crispy, simple and tasty with pickles on a nice brioche bun! Their honey mustard sauce is made in house and delicious read more

Excellent local chicken strip spot here in Bend!! I am inclined to believe there will be two types of people who love or hate this place. It's definitely a greasy fried chicken place. This ain't a healthy restaurant by any means!! Their chicken is local however and i am guessing air chilled due to how juicy the meat was. The breading was heavenly - coleslaw was excellent and for around a $13 price point i felt I got a decent value!! Customer service was awesome - there was a bit of a wait but this exists EVERYWHERE in bend - not a huge labor pool for folks willing to bust themselves for minimum wage at 4000 a month apartment rent - build in 30 minutes for food prep folks - this ain't portland. read more

The chicken sandwiches are bomb. Service is excellent and they all were very friendly. I would eat here once a week, only problem is I live in Florida. Definitely worth stopping by for some delicious grub. read more

Not to happy at all. For the price 36 bucks got us theses nasty smothered fries in buffalo and cold cheeses, then the panko fried chicken sandwich had no flavor whatsoever. definitely won't be back, and the price is not worth the quality. Chick fil A is way better in my opinion. read more

Hands down the best place to get chicken tenders or a chicken sandwich in all of central Oregon. Great value, great flavor and great service. The fries are the bomb as well. A definite must try if you're in the mood for tenders! read more

Great service. Had the Nashville sandwich and the off menu "shantastick" (sampler) plus a mounds cookie and half and half peach tea. Delicious chicken(especially the coconut) and amazing fries. Hubby loved the cookie. read more

Well I was excited to try this new chicken joint out. It seemed to be good by pictures I'd seen. Well I walk in and notice the person behind the counter was busy. He says come over to where he was and order. I ordered the coconut chicken meal. $15 for 3 pieces of chicken, fries, slaw and a drink. Sounds good. I pore my drink and inform him the Pepsi was out. His reply...oh? The counter where he was prepping the food was messy, but figured it was after lunch...maybe a rush? As I wait music was more of a concern between him and the other person than service it seemed! When my order was finally done, I understand they are made to order, I open it up to see and... read more

This is identical to the chicken strips you get at Safeway's deli. Just not good... A large amount of food though. read more

After having so many wonderful experiences at The Children Shanty shanty I felt it was only right to give a review of the restaurant. As I walked in the door. I was greeted with a warm welcoming and kind smile. As I look at the menu, I see many different choices. Some of my favorites are, chicken, chicken bacon, chicken strips, coconut chicken, avocado wrap, and fried chicken and waffle. The food is always hot and fresh. The meals come with fries and coleslaw. There are also many different sauces available, including southern ranch, honey mustard, dragon fruit and many more. The sauces are always fresh. So if you're looking for a good chicken meal, head on over to The Chicken Shanty in Bend Oregon. You will be very happy you did. read more

It took this place over an hour to get me my food. The food did taste good but the service sucks. I will never order from this chicken shanty again. read more

Love that they use local, good chicken, and are fresh. Hopefully the owners assist with a system that helps the employees (who are all lovely and working hard). The wait is always a lot longer than similar models of restaurants. read more

The experience was super lame. From the second I walked in it just felt chaotic, one guy was standing in the way of me ordering so he could grab tips out of the jar and he had to be shooed away, and then while trying to order I had to repeat and correct multiple time for what I wanted. The people seemed nice enough but it was just unprofessional and irritating. After getting the food it was okay, I got the chicken Wrap and it was mostly just tasteless meat covered in a bunch of cold and wet sauce, lettuce and cheese. I genuinely felt like I was drowning in the sauce, so if I were to give a tip to anyone going I'd recommend you ask them to go light in that department. read more

Have to say wow... went in and ordered 10 boneless wings and the shamackin fries. I was pleased that the chicken was nicely cooked but that's it. The whole time I was waiting I couldn't help but be disgusted by the staff and kitchen dirtiness, no hair nets. My cup of Ranch was HOT and literally tasted like chemical poison. The whole front of the kitchen and preparation area was dirty and nothing was refrigerated or covered and bugs were everywhere. They also were cooking bacon right next to their fountain drink area behind the counter and you could see the visible grease on the fountain. I had high hopes that the chicken would be good enough for me to overlook how dirty and gross it was but unfortunately I'm not even going to eat it. read more

Great tasting food! Got wings and the chicken avocado bacon wrap w/ fries, both very good. Wait time was a bit longer than estimated but they were very busy and prompt to help as soon as they could. read more

I had a three piece chicken meal. The chicken was good (boneless) and freshly cooked. it was juicy and cooked perfectly. I enjoyed not having bones and the pieces were large. It came with cold slaw, fries and two sauce choices, I chose buffalo and ranch. I found the cold slaw bland, maybe it didn't have enough dressing. The fries were good. Even though the place was packed I didn't have to wait long for my food. I don't think they have been open long. They had plenty of help which is nice these days and the workers were friendly. There are a few tables to eat inside but I took mine home. It's a casual atmosphere and a little step up from fast food. Parking is limited but there are larger lots a short walk away. I'll come back and possibly ask for some vinegar for the cold slaw. read more

Service was exceptional. Had boneless checked and outside crip and yummy an inside moist. Dipping sauces are really good. Loved the ranch and southern. Stop in here for good prices and yummy food. read more

Customer service was great, saw this place as a Facebook add and wanted to give it a try, would definitely comeback. I really love the flavor profile they have here with there sandwich's. Reasons why it does not get a 5 star is because the chicken was a little dry, maybe just cooking at to high of a temp or to long. also I wish the bread was toasted a little. Maybe some garlic aïoli on it and or melt the cheese. The cheese parts just a personal preference though. Definitely unique for bend. If you love chicken you'll probably like this place. read more

Food is usually my focus on these reviews but I'm going to talk about the staff in here first. Greeted with a smiling, well informed young woman who made me feel right at home. Other two staffers were equally nice and smiling and the food was bomb too. Got the spicy chicken and it was juicy just the right amount of spicy. Hats off to the shanty crew. They made this meal exceptional. read more

Word of mouth took us to this location. The young man behind the counter was super friendly and willing to help answer all of our questions and even let us try a sauce to help us with our decisions. My husband had the hot chicken basket, he really loved it and is looking forward to coming back. I tried it and it was just okay to me. I had the chicken basket and I wish the chicken would have been crispier than it was. It was good but nothing I would go out of my way for again. I did enjoy the coleslaw, friendly staff and generous portion of sauces. read more

Meh! That was the whole experience! The chicken was very mid! I got the chicken sandwich which had very little flavor and one of each tender. The Nashville tender was by far the best but the coconut and regular had very little flavor. I would not go back read more

Agree with the other review. It's too fatty. The fries are super heavy and you just feel bad after eating it.

Decent chicken, large portions, kinda spendy. The fries were soggy I think because there was so much in the to go container. Next time I will eat there and give it another try. read more
