What the heck did I just try. This mess is Nasty. The biscuits are hard as a rock mac&ch is horrible and not up to temperature. Coleslaw trash fries blah. I do not recommend this place. The peach cobbler looks like throw up.

The chicken is always amazing an its fresh, juicy, crunchy 😋 love it. The sides are sometimes hit an miss but they are still good with a little extra seasoning or hot sauce. I drive to this place from Lancaster. It's always been a childhood favorite an that'll never change.

Perfectly crispy, battered and fried chicken. The sides are very good, I reccomend the potato salad, onion rings, or biscuits.

I wanted to try Golden Bird as I used to eat here back in the day with my mom. I ordered 3 piece wing combo with greens , beans, n rice cornbread.
* Chicken wings are hearty yet lack flavor. They're big yet nothing there flavor wise.
* Beans n rice also lack flavor.
*Greens were good. 🌟
Overall, I wasn't impressed or satisfied with Golden Bird. I had to doused with hot sauce and salt n pepper. Hate to compare, yet Popeyes' original wings are way more flavorful.
We wanted to eat inside, sign posted, and said they close at 9pm, yet an older,unfriendly employee (lady) who took our order said they'd be closing.. no smile or thank you for coming. If the drive thru is open until 9pm- yet dining has different hours. Why not post a sign? It's a simple request.

This small little restaurant is the Best. I’ve offered the staff here tips and they NEVER want it. The manager always says I’d rather you come back and show your support. The nice part is she means it. She took my tip and put it back in the bag of food. So when I want something nice I go here. Tips are nice but things have gotten so expensive. It’s nice to show your support of a business by stopping by. I appreciate it. Sometimes I will stop going somewhere if I don’t have the money to tip. Here I never worry about that. Thank you to the staff at Golden Bird on Western and they cook the food fresh. That’s an added touch. The staff here is saving this business. And they give a lot most places wanna give less and charge more.
I haven't been to this location,but I used to work at Golden Bird on Vermont and King blvd

I'll begin with a precursor, it was pure nostalgia that moved me in the direction to try Golden Bird! You know, the sweet memories of sitting in the backseat and grubbing on their delicious chicken after church with my grandma. That slightly sweet, crunchy coating!!! Yes, yes and yes- I drove by a few times and today was finally the day that I gave in. Well, first thing that should of deterred me was the prices!! Initially, I was just gonna grab a few pieces for the family-but a 16 piece was almost $70!!!!! I must admit that I was very insulted because what chicken costs that much??? Even air chilled, organic chicken from Whole Foods isn't that much! And even bigger, this isn't even freshly fried chicken! This chicken is prefried, sits under a heat lamp for who knows got long, and is sold on Florence and Western!! There's no great views, no wait service, no ambiance. Actually, I was pissed that I didn't see the huge pile of trash sitting next to the door when I went in because I'm sure it would've deterred me from even proceeding! Any who, I decided to grab the 2 piece with 2 sides and a corn muffin. Long story short, I wish I could've reclaimed my time, my energy and all 15 of my dollars!! Now I speak on the prices here but make no misunderstanding- I don't mind playing top dollar for good food and good service! This on the other hand was not one of those experiences tho! That chicken was super greasy and tasted old, refried, and trash ready! And the sides were just plain nasty!!! For health purposes, I couldn't even bring myself to eat the sides because watching the lady handle everybody's money, pick trash up off the floor, then walk over and scoop the food into the container with no gloves on was disgusting!! Side bar, the sides were greens and yams!! I chose those because they were the only decent looking things in the steamer! The beans and the macaroni and cheese looked tragic- like the heat lamp had completely dried them out. Ultimately, I would not recommend eating at Golden Bird! The food was awful, as were their food safety procedures!! Worst of all is the price range!! Like if you're gonna sling chicken in that area, at least freshly fry it and price it in a place where folks in the neighborhood could actually afford to buy it!

First let me say I’m from NY and I was visiting my Auntie. We had Golden Bird chicken and it was the best chicken I ever had. This was 40 plus years ago. We were in Compton California.
