Tipsy Chicken is a cute little spot in a very random location (although I've heard they're moving). They've got some rustic decor, a nice little bar, and pretty solid cocktail menu. Food-wise, the Chicken Sandwich was quite good. Flavorful, juicy, and tender. The chicken wild rice soup was also very good. Rich, creamy, and filled with ingredients to satisfy any cravings. Definitely worth a visit as they'll likely have something you'd enjoy! read more

Super cute inside vibes, decorated well and very clean. Our server was also bartending and made super delicious cosmo that I want to order now just thinking about it. She was knowledgeable and great with giving recommendations on food and drinks, and had some groovy eyeshadow to boot! :) I tried the vegetable stroganoff. It was good, super Interesting. I would say it could have used more of a stroganoff flavor, I wasn't tasting much of that but non the less, a tasty pasta. My friend got the chicken sandwich. Oh, so good. The fries look and taste home made. My favorite part was probably the chicken and wild rice soup. An order is a big bowl topped with fresh micros and some seriously big pieces of mushrooms. I am excited to come back and will make it my go to in elk river. read more

Stopped in here for a quick lunch while working. Everything on the menu sounded amazing but I ended up going with their signature sandwich and fries. Fries were incredible and the chicken was delicious. Great atmosphere and very friendly waitstaff. The drink menu was teasing me with some killer sounding drinks but since I was working I unfortunately couldn't partake this visit. Will definitely be back! read more

Chapter 62 Imagine, dear reader, being invited into the cozy embrace of someone's rustic home in Elk River, where the scent of hearty, home-cooked delights wafts from the kitchen. Here lies Tipsy Chicken Kitchen & Cocktails, proudly proclaiming "ORGANIC | ETHICAL | HUMANE | HEALTHY" and serving up a warm, homespun experience. We may have strayed from the "healthy" part of that tagline, but that was on purpose. Our journey began not as adventurers, but as cherished guests, welcomed with an appetizing overture of wings. A dozen Amish chicken wings, fried and accompanied by sauces. It was like a gracious host offering up a simple yet irresistible welcome, setting the scene for a delightful gathering. Next time, we'll have them tossed instead. I, ever the appreciative guest, chose the chicken and dumplings. Herb-roasted chicken, homemade dumplings, and savory mirepoix gravy, accompanied by focaccia bread; it felt like a comforting, homemade meal, lovingly prepared in a dear friend's kitchen. A friend that you actually like. Not one of those other types. My dining companion, equally charmed by our host's offerings, opted for the chicken pot pie. It shared flavors with my dish, like a family recipe passed down through generations. These dishes were a duet of homey, rich, and undeniably tasty goodness, and they were different enough that no table should fear getting both. To accompany our meal, we decided to explore the cocktail menu, settling on "Confusion" and "Frog Juice." They were fragrant, boozy, and as delightful as sipping drinks in the living room while the host strums an old guitar with 3 broken strings. You aren't sure how it works, but damn if it doesn't work incredibly well. We finished with the deconstructed s'mores, which were lovely and only needed some more thorough torching on all sides to be out-of-this-world. Throughout our visit, the service felt like being in the company of dear friends, where warmth and hospitality abounded. It added that extra layer of charm to our experience, making us feel like we had been welcomed into a cherished friend's home for a memorable meal. In Tipsy Chicken, we found not just a restaurant but a heartfelt invitation to share in the joys of rustic, home-cooked cuisine. Until we return to our gracious host's kitchen, we'll hold these memories close to our hearts. Thank you, Tipsy Chicken, for making us feel like family. The end. read more

Oh, there are so many good things to say about Tipsy Chicken. I've been here several times now and every time has been such a great experience. Tipsy Chicken uses quality ingredients in everything they make, from entrees to appetizers to cocktails. Think farm-to-table, but even better than you'd probably imagine it to be. No matter what meal I get, I will always start with a side salad with maple vinaigrette. You know how in a lot of places, a side or starter salad is that kind of boring lettuce, shredded carrot, cherry tomato thing? Not here. You get mixed greens, onions, carrots, crostini, and the greatest dressing known to mankind. I think my favorite entree so far has been the Amish chicken pot pie. The only way it could be improved if it was served year-round rather than seasonally. The fries are an excellent side - they are so crispy and flavorful. Another great thing about Tipsy Chicken is you aren't getting oily/greasy things. You get so much better flavor without all the grease. The cocktails are just superb. Imagine fresh fruits and herbs, but boozy. My go-to cocktail is the Confusion, but I've tried almost every drink on the menu over time and there are so many unique flavor profiles there is always something fun to enjoy. The atmosphere and service at Tipsy Chicken have always been great. The interior is farmhouse chic, but somehow not kitschy. It feels very comfortable and modern, but also rustic at the same time. This is definitely a place to stop by if you're in the Northern suburbs or looking to venture out of the Twin Cities area for something delicious. read more

Took a trek out to Elk River for some brunch with old coworkers. The server told us that they had a completely revamped brunch menu, and I got the cajun scramble, which came with andouille sausage, peppers, eggs and cheese with a side of sweet potatoes, apples and kale and a hot sauce. Great mix of savory and sweet, and I love that it came with the hot sauce without me needing to ask. I ordered a sweet hazel as my drink, which came with hazelnut infused vodka, espresso beans, kahlua, coffee, and cream. Tipsy Chicken is not only delicious, but serves organic and certified humane chicken and delicious farm style meals. It was definitely worth the drive. read more

The food was actually pretty good. The Service was good as well. The cleanliness of the area where we were seated was a bit on the dirty side. The server mentioned that kids were sitting there before us, but the staff didn't take the time to clean before sitting us down. The Ambiance was just okay. read more

We loved this place. First let me say get a reservation. We had one and got seated within minutes. It's not a big place but it's really popular. It's a really cute chicken theme and lots to look at. We ordered drinks and bruschetta for an appetizer. The drinks were strong and delicious I got the confusion and it even smelled delicious. We ordered the chicken pot pie and tipsy cauliflower for dinner and both were really good. Our dessert was something we saw with ice cream and a waffle with bananas and a sauce and we couldn't resist and it was worth every calorie. Our service was good. We asked for water as well as our drinks with alcohol. Our waitress was good, we loved the atmosphere and the food and drinks were fantastic so we will definitely come back. read more

My friends suggested Tipsy Chicken for a weekday lunch, and it did not disappoint! We were seated at a table by the front windows, and the environment was so comfortable, it was a quiet place to chat and the service was pleasant. I couldn't wait to try the chicken tenders, and WOW the crispy coating is to die for I loved their ranch sauce and the honey dipping sauce too! My friend tried the Mac, and loved it. We also split the organic fries, with added Parmesan garlic, and I had high expectations, but they seemed to be super undercooked. Tasty, but sorta limp, for fries. I added on a side salad, and it was unique and the perfect pairing. We each ordered a cocktail, I went with the Frog Juice it included fresh squeezed juice and vodka, and was pretty dang good and unique. read more

Organic/ethical/humane/healthy is their byline, which is reflected in the pricing. It's a locally owned/operated scratch kitchen (fits in with the chicken theme). I LOVED that our server, Randine knew the ingredients in ALL of our choices! I had to skip the Dixie Chick because she warned me it was made with buttermilk (I'm lactose intolerant). They are gluten knowledgeable as well! read more

Went there last night as they moved and my wife said it was better, she must have went on a good night as went last night. $39 for braised beef short ribs... one would assume you get oh I don't know???? rib at least 1? Nope, it was just braised beef, cheaper cut such as rump roast. Wasn't bad, but when one pays premium for premium cut, one expects it to be premium. If there was a wine reduction it must have been less than a shot of wine. Garlic mashed potatoes lacked any garlic flavor at all, potato texture indicated these were questionable premade or boxed. My wife's burger Chori-Queso, left one queasy at best, sauce was indescribably bad and the burger was meh at best. Only reason for 2 stars is the service was pretty good honestly. Even with the overly loud guest at the bar. Won't be back though, no reason to pay for meh food. read more

OH MY MY MY!!!! Absolutely delicious . Came here for a family brunch and it was very relaxing not busy, we got to sit by the window which the kiddos loved.

Organic Buffalo Chicken Wings -fried(they also have grilled) with a side of ranch which is most excellent. 8/10 Chicken & Waffles -Hand breaded, fried organic chicken breast a top a homemade Belgian waffle with maple syrup and served with Potatoes 8/10 Cheese Steak Tender steak, bell peppers and onions, cheese curds, roasted garlic aioli on a sub roll.(BTW add goat cheese to take it to the next level) 9/10 read more

Recently a few friends & I ventured in to Elk River for this rrataurant! What pulled us in was our obsession for Beets. Tipsy Chicken has a Beet-A-Rita & we had to try it! We shared a few menu items & also got our own entrees. It was a fun time & we truly enjoyed all the menu items we had. Rooster Mac & Cheese: Organic penne noodles w/ creamy cheese sauce, pulled chicken, bacon, & mushrooms topped w/ breadcrumbs. This was so screamt and delish! Tipsy Cauliflower: Organic cauliflower, bacon, parmesan cheese w/ house Tipsy dressing on a bed of baby spinach. I love cauliflower and this was frrash with good flavors. Gnocchi - House made Ricotta gnocchi, pan-fried w/ cremini mushroom sauce & sage. Beet-A- Rita : Tres Generaciones Reposado tequila, Contreau, fresh beet juice, fresh lime juice & Agave nectar. 10/10 obsessed read more

Every time I visit the Tipsy Chicken, I'm impressed with the food, the cocktails, and the staff. The Tipsy Chicken is a quaint cafe in Elk River that has two areas for seating: a bar area and a dining area. The decorations are unique and most are for sale! One of the big strengths of Tipsy Chicken is their cocktails. I haven't had one that I didn't like. When I last visited, I opted for a glass of cold rose since the weather outside was blisteringly hot. The rose was perfectly cold and the pour was generous. To make things even better, it was 2 for 1! A great surprise. For food I ordered the Farmer's Reward and my husband ordered the Tipsy Wrap. The Farmer's Reward had a moist grilled chicken breast on a toasted bun with crisp bacon, some fixings, and a sauce. My only complaint would be that the sandwich could have used more sauce, but our waitress happily brought out some extra when we asked. The Tipsy Wrap was done perfectly - our favorite part is that the chicken isn't fried to the wrap feels a little lighter. The side salads were also really nice with pickled red onion, cucumber, and tomatoes. It was a great summer meal! Our server was amazing - she seemed to be handling almost the entire dining area and didn't miss a best. She was friendly and prompt and a pleasure to chat with. I recommend the Tipsy Chicken and we will definitely be back! read more

Was told by my friend we were going to the 'funky chicken'. Was glad it was really the Tipsy Chicken. Thought it might be a dive or a local diner. No, I didn't look it up on line. If I lived here it would be my local restaurant. Great food and service. Presentation was excellent. Taste was good unique. Service was friendly and informative, thank you Shelly! Try this place Mikey, you'll like it. read more

I loved the idea of this place, the execution was simply off. We came for brunch for Memorial Day weekend and were hit with bad weather. Since everyone was inside I'll chalk up some of the wreckage to being understaffed but when a group makes a reservation, enters with only 3-4 tables seated and waits for 30 minutes for food and then has French toast and pancakes burnt something isn't working. Their chicken sandwich was awesome but the timing in the kitchen hurt the temps and consistency of the 9 in our party. Truthfully their coffee was the best part of our meal it was really good. I'll give them another shot, I'm hoping for a better round 2. read more

I went to this restaurant with my wife for the first time. It is a cute restaurant , they were able to get us in pretty much right away with a reservation. We ordered a round of drinks which were quite good. Negatives were I had a glass of water which appeared to have dirt in the bottom. We ordered dinner, I had a chicken Philly sandwich which for mostly bread and cheese very little chicken at all. I upgraded to fries from chips and the fries were tasteless, should have stuck with the fries. My wife had chicken and waffles, again the chicken wasn't seasoned, thankfully it was a good quality chicken. What I would say in summary is the food was ok but very overpriced. If it was $12-14 per meal I wouldn't complain at all but at $20+ per meal clearly not worth it. For that price the food better be amazing. We will not be back. read more

What a fun and cool spot for a relaxing and yummy meal! From the decor to the staff - so cool and all super friendly.

Plus, ORGANIC! Thanks for the great experience, Tipsy Chicken! read more

We see the Tipsy Chicken restaurant when we go up north and finally got to try it. We met some friends there for brunch. The place is clean with fun decor. The staff greeted us right away and talked about the menu. My wife and I shared the poutine this is hand cut fries with creole seasoning, andouille sausage gravy, and white cheddar cheese curds. The fries were delicious the gravy, sausage and white cheddar curds were so delicious. One of my new favorite poutines. We also shared the Dixie chick which is their signature fried chicken sandwich on a toasted bun with house made pickles, lettuce and tomato with Tipsy Sauce. Now this is why it was a 4 and not a 5 (mine and my wife's taste) the coating lacked seasoning and flavor. Nice crunch, chicken cooked to perfection. Just needed some seasoning. That Tipsy sauce needs to be bottled and sold. The pickles were a perfect compliment to the sandwich. Now our server Randine was a rockstar! Knew the menu answered all of our questions even joined in on our playful banter. We will definitely eat here again and try some other items. read more

I've been coming to Tipsy Chicken since they opened up in Elk River. Immediately, your eyes are drawn to the walls, filled with fun and charming decor. BUT - let's talk about the food. The menu has gone through many iterations, but some things have always stayed on there, and for good reason. *Dixie Chicken: Really just puts any other fried chicken sandwich to shame. Be sure to add plenty of tipsy sauce! *Tipsy Wrap: You just can't go wrong with this wrap. Super filling, delicious with every bite. And, of course, tipsy sauce. Do you sense a theme here? *Confusion: A perfect blend of summer and fall in a cocktail. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything at Tipsy. Make sure you check out this unique spot in Elk River! read more

Prices are ridiculous, especially compared to other local restaurants. Not sure if it was just an off day for the cook but the burger I had was dry and tasteless. Not to mention the only burger on their menu is a build your own burger. 13 for a single patty with just cheese and 15 for a double patty with only cheese. Anything extra on the burger will cost you $1-2 extra per item. So you're looking at an expensive burger when you get the additions you want. I got the burger because they used to be great. This burger wasn't even a shadow of their former burgers. The fries are still good so I'll give them that. They serve a Rooster Mac n cheese that used to be $17 that is now $23, that alone is enough to make me never come back. $23 should be a sin. I would give 2 1/2 if I could. Don't waste your time here, go to Applebees instead. read more

Nice little organic farm to table restaurant! Ordered the "Ghosted" and "Frog Juice" for drinks to start. Both of these drinks were excellent, but a little on the pricey side for what they are($9 & $11). Bowl of Chili is more like the size of a cup (oh never mind they brought me the wrong size order), tastes great but is mostly the cheese and sour cream filling the tiny cup. The ribeye with mushrooms and onions is excellent! Kids love the the chicken strips! Service is pretty good but they could use another waitress (one waitress serviced the entire restaurant, so water refills didn't happen). read more

Cute place with rustic decor but value of food to price is not balanced. Ordered chicken and dumplings and it lacked flavor but I did eat most of it with the help of pepper (peas were way over kill) Husband had stroganoff and the gravy was watery. Also, penne pasta instead of egg noodles. He did bring it home and ate the leftovers. Service was mediocre but friendly. We did not try and drinks but they did look very good. Overall, experience was ok but not worth the price. read more

As a British resident I was missing what I call "real" food. From scratch, not mass produced and warmed up or made from tin cans and packets! Real honest wholesome grub! This place is a gem, I would love to get a neon light and shine it on this place so all can experience some "real" food. But I don't want them to get so busy that I can't just rock up and get a table. So I hope this review suffices. Your food is the best American home cooking I have tasted. The vibe is great! Keep up the good work. read more

Food was mediocre both in quality and taste, but the prices sure weren't. Servers were kind but inattentive. The restaurant itself had kind of a rustic/barn style, which was a nice aesthetic, but the seating itself was uncomfortable. Altogether, couldn't wait to leave once we finished eating, but were uncomfortably stuck waiting to pay the bill. read more

The Tipsy Chicken is a newer restaurant located in Elk River focusing on organic, farm fresh ingredients. The menu even indicates what level of organic each selection is. This particular stop I made was for brunch. With a name like Tipsy Chicken I had to order something with chicken. I decided to go with the Chicken Biscuits and Gravy which is great because I got to try the chicken and have one of my absolute favorite brunch dishes. The dish came with two buttermilk biscuits that were baked to near perfection, a healthy sized tender and juicy chicken breast, smothered in pork sausage gravy that claimed to have "just a touch of heat." While the chicken and the biscuits were outstanding, the thing that matters the most, the sausage gravy was underwhelming. Not enough sausage and there wasn't a single touch of heat. I initially added more black pepper and then ended up adding hot sauce. I am sure it would appeal to the general population but being from the south I have certain expectations of sausage gravy. The dish also came with a side of smashed potatoes which were very good and 2 eggs your way. I ordered them over medium and they were cooked perfect and honestly some of the best eggs I have ever had. My girl friend ordered a skillet which comes "build your own" style with smashed potatoes, eggs your way and 3 toppings. They have a nice selection of veggies, meats and cheeses the choose from. It was just ok. Nothing was really seasoned and the portion was way too small. I also ordered a Bloody Mary. Again, just okay. With a farm to table style restaurant boasting organic this and healthy that I would have expected an in house bloody mix but that was not the case. All and all I was slightly underwhelmed. I think they have the right idea but need to make some small alterations. Also, this place isn't cheap, at all. Like woah. I get it, it's organic but with the portion size of the skillet and the grocery store Bloody Mary mix I don't know it's justifiable. While I would recommend this place if you are in the area I probably won't be making another visit. read more

Located in a small strip mall on Highway 10 outside Elk River. This local restaurant serves up a number of chicken dishes. I selected the chicken pot pie to go out of the box. Excellent choice on my part. Non chicken choices are on the menu. My wife selected the Shrimp and Grits which she enjoyed. Other items tried by our group included the Dixie Chick sandwich, Chicken and Biscuits, Chicken Wrap. All received a thumbs up. Alcohol is served including a craft beer selection. Family friendly. Our grandsons were easily accommodated. Nice portions. Our daughter lives in the area and we will make this a frequent stop. read more

It's amazing how Elk River of all places is a place for this place! I say that only that Elk River is a little north and not a place I would expect to find a gem like this. This is scratch cooking, wonderful service in a very warm inviting environment! No knock on Elk River and there are some very good family restaurants there but not that specialize in chicken, scratch meals and farm fresh organic (not 100% sure but pretty sure). Daughter and I stopped in on a Monday night while venturing out for our Christmas tree, super smart idea! The service was great, food was wonderful and I left with the feeling I want to go back! Only wish they had a Spicy Chicken, Nashville style but that's me! KT read more
