We were in the area for our annual trip to Bentonville...My wife had heard of it on her social media...We were hungry and they fixed our hunger! Prices were definitely reasonable for the amount of quality food you get. The kids meals were enough to split...but my two diva daughters were undecided on one thing. So 2 kids meals it was. Needless to say we had leftovers that I will destroy when we get home! The wife had a tender box combo and was enough to split. So fresh and delicious. I got the chicken and biscuits to eat. Oh my... The biscuits were phenomenal. I had a Miller lite to warsh it all down. The happy hour price during March madness had me order 2... All in all the staff was kick a$$ and the food was bomb in our perspective. Thank you to the GM. Thank you to Ernie (bar) for keeping my thirst quenched Thank you Faith and kitchen for all the VIP like care!!! The daughters requesting more cheddar biscuits!!!! We got an order to go!!! We definitely will return. Ample parking, clean and cozy bathrooms. Let me know when you open one on the northwest side of OKC.. would kill in the Piedmont area. #JustSayin! Good job on all things. Reach out with any questions! Respectfully, Bryan Yukon, Oklahoma read more

We love Waldos! This location has a nice outdoor dog friendly patio, a large bar with tvs, and a nice dining room. The chicken themed art inside is funny. I think they are different than all the other chicken restaurants because they have rotisserie chicken, fried tenders, and for their sandwiches they use fried chicken thighs instead of breast. I love their selection of sides including cheese bread, white beans, collards, potato wedges, and tomato and cucumber salad. They also have a full bar and drinks specials all the time. They have a small kids menu and a good selection of salads and apps too. Highly recommend trying them out! read more

Probably, no definitely, the smallest chicken fingers I've ever seen. More like long, skinny, nuggets. I don't know if this is normal for Waldo's but if so I might as well go through one of the many drive through chicken spot that, in my limited Waldo's experience, has equal service. read more

Fun, modern decor and atmosphere. The cashier was friendly. I ordered the tenders box with coleslaw, fries & Texas toast. I chose the Alabama White and Classic Buffalo sauces for dipping. The hubs chose BBQ sauce and Habanero Oil. Our oder came out very quickly. While I did try the sauces - which were very tasty, I preferred to each my tenders with no sauce. The flavor of the tenders themselves was amazing. It reminded me of the gas station chicken of my childhood. That may seem like an insult, but the gas station chicken of my childhood was incredible- today's stuff can't touch it. All the side items with the chicken were also very tasty. I used the sauces mainly for the fries! read more

Love the friendly bartender, the cheddar "biscuits" and the beer on tap offerings! The artwork is quirky and worth a giggle. The bar is a great place to cozy up for a chat or to watch the game. We enjoyed our first visit. We'll be back. read more

Waldo's Chicken & Beer - Cheddar biscuits and honey butter and the house Outlaw Beer. Slightly sweet, hoppy, good! - Chicken Shop Near Me - Bentonville, Arkansas

Got takeout. Signature burger was good. Pretty standard chicken sandwich honestly. Fries were underwhelming. Soft after only a 10-minute drive, and most had the texture of a damp notebook. Signature sauce basically tastes like Canes sauce. Banana pudding was awesome. Food was ready very quickly. Price point is also pretty good. read more

We really love the crispy chicken and fries. We visit weekly as our entire family loves the chicken. Workers are friendly and we love the fact they offer our grandson a cookie if he eats his food and grandma says it's ok. Wish they had styrofoam instead of the large plastic cups as they have the nuggets ice which is amazing. Only thing I can say for a coaching tip is watch the size of the chicken strip if one strip is 1/3 the size of the others put an extra in the plate! read more

Nice fast food chicken type place. The buffalo sauce was nice and hot but not too spicy. Service was fast and friendly.

There's no shortage of chicken tender specialty restaurants these days, so they have to stand out to pull people in. The Yelp reviews + proximity to my hotel had me checking out this chicken. The verdict? Pretty damn good. I'd just driven in, and I've given up my road trip vices and snacks so needless to say, I was pretty damn hungry. They have a nice if not overwhelming breakdown of all their dipping sauces when you walk in; I tried a jalapeno ranch and their house sauce, both of which were crazy good. My chicken tenders were also very good. Grabbed a spot outside and service was quick to bring them out. The breading was super crispy, and the chicken seemed to be of good quality; aka, not chewy/woody/weird. The fries were OK, could've been hotter and crispier but the sauce helped carry them over the finish line. Kind of fast-food, kind of not, but whatever it is, I see why people like this spot in Bentonville. read more

I like this place. The chicken tenders were wonderful and the fries were good too. We will definitely be going back.

Great Chicken and sauces. My only issue is I upgrade from Fries to Onion rings. +$1.99 to do that and I got 3 freakin Onion rings. Are you kidding me? What a ripoff having to pay extra and only get 3. read more

Our first time here and we will be back! Employees are super friendly and helpful! We had the chicken tenders, collard greens, onion rings, and of course, a cheddar biscuit... all of them were magnificent‼ You will also love the variety of sauces that they have They also have a full bar! We loved alfresco dining! read more

The food was great and the prices were surprisingly low for the quantity and the quality of the food. Everything made from scratch too!! If you haven't had their homemade vanilla pudding, it's worth going JUST for that! And we really like the vibe. Casual, comfortable, cool and great outside seating too! The service was quick for food they didn't begin preparing until we ordered it. After only one visit, Waldo's will be a regular stop for us. Definitely in our top 5 for casual dining. I highly recommend it and will be inviting my coworkers to join me for lunches there. read more

They have one job only, and that is to cook chicken.....they nailed it! Decided to give this place a go for lunch a while back and am happy to report it was off the charts good. Fries were perfection and Mac and cheese was some of the best in recorded history! read more

We decided to try a new restaurant and had heard good things about Waldo's so we went. We had wings, tenders and chicken nachos, with fries and wedges. Excellent food, nice flavor and not too much breading. Highly recommend the comeback cause and the rooster cause for dipping. Service was fast and friendly, everyone looked like they enjoyed working there. It has a sports bar vibe so it is a little noisy, but you can still carry on a conversation. Plenty of big screens for watching your team. Will definitely be back. read more

I can't put into words what this place means to me. I have completely stopped going to Canes. This establishment has raised the bar for your chicken experience. The staff is the absolute best and take care of my every single time I'm there. It has become a problem how many time I eat here. There has never been a restaurant that I've been this attached too. It's the first thing I think about when I wake up and the last thing I think about when I fall asleep. Thank you Waldo's for everything that you do for me. read more

Ordered the 1/2 fried chicken basket with fries and collard greens. The chicken was absolutely awesome, fresh (not frozen), was juicy and crunchy. The collard greens were spot on as well! Enjoyed my meal! read more

To go order....I paid for a couple extra dressings and they weren't in the bag. I was going to check but bag was tied in a knot. I did ask the employee if all the sauces were in there and they said "yep". 3 piece tender basket with wedges as the side. It looks like the tenders are the side and wedges main dish. These tenders were so small more the size of chicken nuggets. Literally the size of my thumb. Over $10 for 3 "nuggets" is crazy. You can see they're about as big as a dipping sauce cup read more

I was excited thinking this place was going to have awesome chicken tenders, etc (based on reviews). Very disappointing, the tenders were fresh but very small and tasted like the oil was old. Fries were super greasy and the coleslaw was tasteless. Next time I'm craving chicken I'll be back at Cane's. read more

Very yummy -- sides are to order separately. I would've liked more than 4 onion rings though.

Day 2 is the service of as quick and friendly. The appetizer of onion rings seemed pretty expensively be for what you get. The 1/4 white fried chicken was tasty. Chicken was flavorful and crispy. Would have preferred that the cheddar biscuits were warm. The macaroni was over cooked and so-so. For fast food $40 with a tip was a bit expensive. read more

We had a larger group of Family for a birthday dinner. They gave us a cute little area with a long table and chairs. Perfect for all of us. We went and ordered our food, and it was very quick. The fried pickles taste better than the other places we've tried. Not greasy. Very good. The chicken was fantastic. And I had the cold slaw and loved it. We will be back. Very family friendly! read more

Best chicken tenders I have ever had!!!!! My husband got the plate quarter white and loved it also. Chicken is cooked for you when you order, it is not precooked. Dipping sauce selection is about 10, read more

Just had Waldo's chicken and I have to say from the moment I stepped in from the moment I stepped out I felt very welcomed and the service was top tier better than most sit down steak restaurants. My boyfriend and J just sat at the bar and by the time we sat down they gave us free appetizers and our food was out maybe two minutes. after we got our appetizer. Even to the bartender that was giving us all the sauces to try he definitely made the experience 10/10. Shoutout to the bartender!! read more

Overcooked and heavily salted. Maybe just a bad day for them. Tator chunks were good but fried were either half done or overcooked. The guys behind the counter were nice. Tye redeeming item was coleslaw. It was the best in this area read more

The chicken is amazing. It is served up fresh every time, and you can tell the difference. If you like a little heat, ask them to put it in the habanero oil before they bread the chicken. It's AMAZING. read more

The best thing about Waldo's Chicken & Beer is the name (I mean, sounds enticing doesn't it?)...and the ranch dressing. There's nothing wrong with them, but nothing particularly right either. $12 for six wings and a small side (although they drumettes were pretty large)? The skin was not crispy at all, which is kind of a big detractor. The rooster sauce was a little overly sweet for my taste, but the traditional Buffalo was classic and good. Partner had some tenders that were altogether lackluster with not an ounce of crispy, but were tasty. Anyway, they're not terrible, but they are forgettable, and in a market with LOTS of chicken joints, you gotta stand out. They didn't. read more

First time, and I enjoyed it. Order at counter Food came out pretty quick Traditional fried chicken was good Mac cheese good French fries very good! Homestyle fries but thin variety I will be back to try something other than the traditional fried chicken: read more

I would love to give this a five star rating; I was very excited to have a Waldo's here, as we have often driven the two hours to go to the one in Tulsa. Some of this may be due to them being newly opened and going through growing pains. There is plenty of potential for them to be great! I asked for one of the meals to be fried chicken with two legs and a breast. They said they could not substitute so the workaround was to order a white 1/4 chicken and a dark 1/4 chicken. I also ordered a white 1/4 roasted with sides and a couple of large sweet teas. The girl who took the order was friendly and seemed very confident but totally left off the 1/4 fried chicken white and wrote up a 1/4 roasted dark. After fixing the order and paying for the 1/4 fried white I went to get the sweet teas. They were out of sweet tea so I informed the manager who tacitly acknowledged me. One of the other employees came out of the back and proceeded to make unsweet tea. The manager asked what I still needed and I told him they were still out of sweet tea and that the young lady was making unsweet tea. He said, "we can only make one at a time." The fried chicken breast was cooked fine on the outside but the meat was undercooked inside, with a smell and look of raw chicken. The white beans had very little flavor to them. The roasted chicken was good but we both had stomach issues after eating here. I hope they improve, as we really enjoy the Waldo's in Tulsa! read more

Well our daughter said she heard Waldo's was good and had not tried it. Monday at 11:30 it was a little busy but not crowded. I had the Free Bird with coleslaw and Lynard Skynard would approve. The chicken tenders on the sandwich was super crispy just like I like it. Wife had the 3 tender box with fries and coleslaw. Tea was good. The food came really quick. I enjoyed this place even though I don't drink. Order at the counter and get a number to go on the table. Fix you own drink and have a seat. TV's everywhere. I like Waldo's even though I never saw him. read more
