What to do in McHenry when you have a taste for fried chicken? The Colonel?? Haven't been here for a few years as last time we came it was nasty. Plucked up our courage and walked in. It was cleaner than the last time. So far, so good. It was a weekday evening around 7:15 pm and the place was not busy inside but the drive-thru was humming! A good sign. The floor could have used a mop but most of the table tops were clean yay!!!!
The chicken strips meal comes with 3 large chicken strips with a tasty, extra-crispy breading which was delish; 2 sides I chose the potato wedges and cole slaw and it came with a drink for 4.99 - that's a deal that is really hard to beat! I tried the their sweet tea which is very sweet. I mixed it with some of the unsweet tea and was able to get the right amount of sweetness for me. The potato wedges were seasoned but not overly so and were tasty. Well the cole slaw I do like and if you like a creamy, sweet style coleslaw with just a little tang you will like this. Also ordered was the 2 pc. chicken meal with the regular breading which I saw was eagerly devoured by my hubby. He also got the potato wedges. The food was well prepared, tasty, portions good, and the help were friendly and busily trying to get everyone their food - the drive thru was quite busy. I do recommend this KFC if you have a taste for fried chicken in the McHenry area. read more
