OMG, that chicken sandwich was crazy delicious! We're definitely going to start getting those sandwiches routinely. The service was great. She was very nice. We've been coming to Avila Barn for decades but yesterday was the first day we ever tried the Chicken Shack & Smokehouse. It won't be the last!
Located in Avila Barn.
Probably the the BEST chicken sandwich we've had in a LONG time. All the food we got was bomb 💣 😋
Just go, you won't be disappointed. The staff are super friendly and there plenty of seating (outside on picnic tables).
We got a variety of items at ate everything. The prices are fair for what the competition is but I feel the quality it better than most.
I was very pleased with everything 😀

Super tasty grub! Brought the kids to see the animals at Avila Barn and was pleasantly surprised by the food options.. ice cream was fantastic. Same goes for the tritip sandwich and Mac and cheese. Only wish there was more bbq sauce on the sando. Small gripe. Lovely place!
