Dropped by Waldo’s for lunch and was genuinely impressed. The Bluebird Chopped Salad featured perfectly shredded rotisserie chicken, tangy blue cheese crumbles, crunchy pecans, and bacon all in a creamy blue cheese vinaigrette that tied everything together beautifully. The Scratch Salad was equally excellent—fresh, crisp garden greens, juicy chicken, sharp cheddar, croutons, and that classic buttermilk ranch; it felt hearty yet balanced.

Both salads came with their signature cheddar biscuits—flaky, cheesy, and just the right warm finish to the meal. Portions were generous, the flavors were well layered, and the ambiance (especially on the patio) was relaxed and friendly. Highly recommended for a tasty, satisfying lunch that’ll keep you coming back.

Small portions, average chicken like fast food, and expensive prices. Ordered from Uber Eats and also go to the restaurant. Disappointed.

Get the Roost sandwich! Trivia + ½-off draft beer for the win on Tuesdays 😎

Ordered to-go, a side was missing and sauces were wrong.

This was my first time here. It's not a bad spot. I like the location and the decor. I would probably come on a big game night for football.

First I want to say the young lady working the register was sweet and patient. The atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming. Loved the wall art. THE FOOD. Chicken in general was great. The sandwiches were sopping wet the bun was gross soggy! Foul mouth was good but had to watch with a fork. The roast sandwich same way! The OG was plain and dry. Potato wedges were either 2 days old or recooked hard and dried out!

Best chicken place in the area! Prices are reasonable, the chicken is extra crispy, the cheesy biscuits are 10/10, they have the best crunchy ice, and they have shoestring fries which are my favorite. The staff is amazing, kind, and all seem to like each other which improves the overall atmosphere (don’t see that often in the service industry). They also play good music.

I ordered for delivery and it was early and still hot...however, it lacked taste other than salt and the meat was tough...I had considered ordering from them several times in the past but decided against because they always say the beer is sold out (not that it's important but what a concept and how cool is that to order your meal with a beer?! No place serving alcohol runs out consistently...just be honest and say "not available for delivery")

So many sauces to choose from-all so delicious! Tender plate was yummy and came with so many tenders-my sides were collard greens and Mac n cheese! Collards could be seasoned a bit more but I added hot sauce and that worked! The biscuits are 10/10!!!
