I like the vibe and the waitstaff came by several times to check on us but the chicken lacked flavor and the waffles seemed under done. The Texas corn also lacked flavor. Maybe some spice or a pinch of salt. read more

Ribs were really good. Chicken was a bit bland but sauces made up for it. Sides and margaritas were good too.

I really enjoyed the food that I ordered. The customer service was great and for my first time eating there they answered all of my questions without hesitation. I will be returning. read more

Great chicken! Better than a canes or Dave's. They have waffles which gives them the advantage against other alternatives but the chicken itself is much better than the others as well. Multiple spice levels and they are all good. Beer is available. Won't be disappointed, must try! read more

Fall off the bone ribs. Super yummy! Friendly staff, great ice cream sandwiches and they have a FULL BAR. We have visited two different locations and they were exactly the same. I love that consistency is there for this small business. The restaurant itself is very clean and organized. Great for a casual lunch with friends or to have a casual date. Good place for families and large serving food to share. read more

Awesome food! Service was good our team had a good time between games and made memories for sure.

My family and I were having a day where we don't really do any work around the house, so we went to do some fun stuff, and after a while ended up here. This place is in a great area, so you can go do stuff before and after coming here and everything is close. First off, this place smells amazing and gives off a nice vibe, and the cashiers and waiters are nice, and want you to have a nice experience. The food is amazing, and you can tell that it is fresh, not like a lot of people's fried chicken. That for me, is an important part in chicken. The waffle was amazing, and the syrup with it was mouthwatering. My family's food was also amazing, and yes I tried theirs. Next time we are in the area, we won't have to spend 20 minutes to decide what to eat, because the Cookshack us nearby! read more

I've tried just about every hot chicken place in town and this is my top. Just consistent giant, amazing and great lemonade. And fast pickup. Always very nice people. I haven't tried any waffles or the things other than the chicken sandwich because that's just classic perfection. Love the waffle fries sweet potato fries. The dragon fries were okay with a nice kick. I remember at the Washington location my friend tried the hottest sandwich and that was a hilarious experience. read more

Delicious chicken tenders! They also have pork ribs. My husband loves the fries. They also have chicken and waffles. The place is very clean. Menu is simple. They serve margaritas etc. Staff is friendly! You can watch the game from any corner of the restaurant. :) read more

Great chicken tenders, big size and always fresh. We've been here 4 times and the food is always good. If you like the tenders get the Sweet heat sauce. Try the Texas caviar. read more

The Cookshack - The cook shack building. - Chicken Shop Near Me - Spring, Texas

Casual date night dinner while shopping for a few early Christmas gifts. This was our first time here and the chicken and waffles were super good - the staff was great at helping us decide on our heat level. My hubby got the ribs and Texas caviar and said his first bite of the ribs was dry but the rest was delicious. No us - ran into some neighbors while there. The only downside was sticky floors. read more

This was a late night snack type stop for me. By late night, it was 830 or 9 pm. By snack, I mean another meal that I did not need but my youngest was hungry. She likes spicy chicken so we thought it deserved a try. We ordered a 1/2 rack of ribs and and order of Nashville style tenders and waffles. We chose hot as the spice level. I am not a fan of fan of walking up for the counter, ordering, then taking a seat. It's just me., but this is a informal dining place. It's a comfortable and has a bar. We sat and enjoyed our teas. A few minutes later, the food arrived. We shred the plates as this was a new place for us. My daughter found the hot chicken to be too spicy, I thought it was ok. To compare, she will eat "hot" from wings stop. This was a tad bit more. Overall, good flavor, nice tenders. She loved the mac and cheese. The waffle was not bad, but that is more my daughter's thing. The ribs were good, not great. Run of the mill non bbq place ribs, sauced. I am in my mind a rib connoisseur, or at least I know what I like and what I make. So sometimes I am tough on ribs and I usually do not order them out, but my youngest wanted to try. Real potato fries will always win with me. There were great. As a side note, they do keep you glass full! So for me, chicken, Mac and cheese, fries a yes, ribs no. I would like to try other things in the menu though so there are future opportunities. I also would prefer a bone in fried chicken. I have not found that here to meet my experiences in Georgia. read more

We stopped in with our daughter and her family after church for lunch and we will definitely be back! I ordered the Sleazy Chicken and it was delicious! I ordered my chicken medium heat, which was perfect with the creamy Mac n cheese. I skipped the coleslaw but my husband said it was good as well. My son in-law had the taco at Texas Heat and it made his eyes water, but he said it was excellent. He had the wrap as well and also liked it. There's only one children's meal, but my grandson enjoy the chicken tenders and fries. Our food came out hot and fresh and the manager came around to check on us. I liked that they had big seating areas as well, which we would need if all our kids joined us. I would skip the lemonade, but there was no upcharge and I was able to refill it with soda. read more

My husband and I came for lunch and overall we were pretty impressed! I went with the 3 tenders, with medium seasoning and a side of Mac & cheese. I'm not a "hot chicken guru" so it could be the way it is, but I thought the chicken was a little over seasoned, almost powdery. I guess I was expecting the seasoning to be more in the batter instead. Still wasn't bad, just not what I expected. Mac & cheese was good I would definitely recommend giving that a try. You get one side of sauce free and their ranch was SO good! Any extra sauces you want you're charged for. Overall pretty good place and we'll be back to try more things from the menu. read more

The best Mac n cheese I've had however BE CAREFUL! When I was eating one of their strips I bit into a bone it cracked 2 of my teeth. When I called and spoke with one of the managers to inform them of the incident she said upper management would call me back. It's been a week and I haven't received a call. This bone could have easily been in a childs strip or it could have been ingested or in my case have to go in for emergency dental repair. If you have crowns be careful. I was enjoying their good food and did not expect to bite into a bone. I'm disappointed I never received a call I think it is import for a restaurant to be aware of incidents like this. If you have crowns or resin work please be careful. The staff was very friendly there and I really liked their food it was my second time going just let down about no follow up. read more

Really nice place. My family loved everything that was ordered. We were able to place our order and get our food so quickly.

Nice newer hot chicken restaurant! Decor is fun but it's the food that will make you come back. I had the chicken and waffles. Waffles were on the small side but the three chicken strips it came with were enormous. I couldn't finish it. Mac and cheese side was delicious. Highly recommend. read more

The Cookshack - Chicken sandwich (medium spice level) - Chicken Shop Near Me - Spring, Texas

It takes over 20 minutes to get food even in the drive thru, and they don't get your order correct. They forgot all the sides for our main courses and then charged us for extra sides. They don't give you a total before you pay even when we asked. We had to repeat our order 4 times for them to understand us, and they still got it very wrong. read more

We've been several times and never know if it'll be good or not... but sadly we will not be back after getting sick from their salads for the 3rd time! The first time we thought it could've been something else, tried it a second time a couple months later and still a very upset stomach, and now this third time leaves us with no doubt who's causing us to throw up (and down)! They definitely have some cross contamination going on in the kitchen, so gross read more

This chicken and ribs chain now has a location in Spring near us. We stopped in the other night with friends to give them a try. We got ribs and chicken at heat levels medium and Texas Hot, dragon fries, mac and cheese, and sweet potato fries. Finished with Aunt Peggy's Ice Cream Sandwich. I washed mine down with a Cock-A-Doodle Brew, a beer brewed specifically for the Cookshack. I did some online research on the beer and couldn't find info. I believe it's a nice mild IPA. Complemented the food well. For chicken they serve tenders--very large tenderloins breaded and fried, spiced to your heat tolerance. They were above-average tenders--crisp batter and pretty tender on the inside. Not quite as tender as Cane's, but the spice options make it equivalent for me. The spice is a pepper sauce with a nice bite. I consider myself below-average on spice tolerance--I ordered medium and it was almost too spicy. They have options from no heat to AMF (not sure what that stands for). For AMF you have to sign a waiver. They really do bring the heat, if that's what you're looking for. They also spice the ribs if you want, though I don't think their barbecue sauce needs it. It is a very good Kansas City/Texas blend, sweet and complements the ribs very well. The ribs themselves are everything you could ask for--perfect tenderness, not baby food but the perfect bite. It is as good a place to get ribs as any commercial bbq place, a cut above Rudy's or Spring Creek but not quite up there with Tejas BBQ or Corkscrew. The sides were more mixed but on the whole good. The Dragon Fries are visually disappointing. They look like regular fries. If you eat some before you start on your spicy tenders you will note that they have some heat. The mac and cheese was pretty good--tastes like there's meat in it. The sweet potato fries were quite good. They are waffle fries, lightly battered so they have some crispness. The ice cream sandwich is cut four ways so it is shareable. The flavors are in the cookie--the ice cream is vanilla. A nice way to end the meal. The Cookshack is highly regarded and shows the virtue of limiting your menu. They do their thing really well. Service was good, not perfect but they absolutely are making an effort. The bathroom was clean and ready. The tables are somewhat close together and it was crowded when we went, so it was pretty noisy, but overall it was a fine experience and worth repeating. read more

Fast service. Chicken is amazing. And a nice family setting. There was a bar inside but didn't seem like there was much going on since it was kinda early on a Saturday. The crispy was in the chicken was perfect. read more

Great Food and a very Clean Restaurant. I've eaten here several times and is consistently great. I highly recommend.

Delicious chicken!!! It was our First time here so we tried the chicken sandwich and chicken tenders. Both were excellent choices and we look forward to going back to try more items! Mild chicken sandwich was not too spicy. Hot tenders had the perfect amount of kick! Also great service!! Workers at the counter helped us understand the spice level clearly and table waitress was so friendly and polite. read more

Great food and reasonably priced. We stumbled onto this gem while shopping one weekend, and it is now a regular dining choice of my kids at least once a week. read more

Food: So delicious everything came out fresh and well seasoned! I got the ribs with chicken tenders. Next time I will try Texas hot instead medium was not hot at all. I love the ribs how they fell off the bone and seasoned perfectly. Staff: pretty nice I do feel like they should be a little more helpful but overall great service. I will be back super happy they opened closed to home. read more

Went here tonight (02/20/23) and it was our 1st time going here, i got the sleezy chicken with no coleslaw or pickles and medium heat and it was so good!! my only "complaint" is that it was personally hot enough for me but that's my own fault, i got medium heat to personally be safe but if you like the tiniest bit of spice, i totally recommend getting the medium, but if you want it to be way hotter, go up in spice levels! this also sorta depends on spice tolerance, i'm sure to some people the medium IS spicy, but it also kinda gets drowned out by the mac and cheese as well. But the food and service was both 20/10!! employees are so sweet! read more

Always good food! Stop in to see Jordan and he will get you taken care of. There's nothing bad I can say about this establishment. It's a bit larger than the Washington Ave location and they have an indoor/outdoor patio. It's cutesy. read more

The service was good. Ambiance ok, but the food had no flavor, bad enough that it was cold. 1 star for trying.
