6 Best Chicken Restaurants near Boulder

“The service here was exponential! Chris, and Willie were very kind. They welcomed us with warm smiles and timely service. Its one thing to greet a customer but these two went above and beyond to make sure my wife and I had the best experience possible. 10/10 would definitely recommend stopping into bird call, its employees like Chris and Willie that create repeat customers!“

“Tried out Birdcall on Pearl Street and ordered two chicken sandwiches: the seasonal K-POP ($10.25) and their signature Rancher ($9.50).

The K-POP sandwich had a fun, fresh twist with Korean BBQ glaze, gochugaru spice, scallions, and kimchi coleslaw. It was definitely flavorful and crispy, but probably a one-time try for me—not something I'd go back for.

Now, the Rancher was the real winner. Loaded with crispy chicken, bacon onion jam, white cheddar, and their Bird-B-Q sauce, it was juicy, saucy, and hit all the right notes. It was so good it felt like a guilty pleasure worth repeating.

Both sandwiches were hot, steam-piping fresh, and delivered an impressive crunch. They're large enough that you really don’t need any sides like fries.

Birdcall operates on a self-service model. You order and pay at touchscreen kiosks, then pick up your food from the pickup counter. It’s quick, efficient, and keeps things simple.“

“Good experience at the post! Our food was tasty - we especially enjoyed the banana pudding dessert. I appreciated the mocktail options. Our server was being trained, but the person who was training him seemed to know his stuff pretty well! Atmosphere was overstimulating at first when we were automatically seated at the bar area, but this was remedied when we were able to move to a more intimate booth.“

“The Post is one of those spots you just can’t go wrong with. Their chicken? Flat-out awesome. Crispy, juicy, packed with flavor — exactly what fried chicken should be. Honestly, it’s worth the trip on its own, but the rest of the menu holds its own too. Everything I’ve had there has been legit, no corners cut, just great food done right.
Drinks? Always on point. Their tap list is stacked with solid choices, and they keep it fresh. Whether you’re grabbing a cold beer to go with the chicken or just hanging out with friends, you know you’re going to get something good every single time.
What I like most is the consistency. The Post doesn’t miss. The food’s always hot, the drinks are always dialed in, and the vibe is always good. It’s laid-back, comfortable, and feels like the kind of place you can make a regular hangout.
Bottom line — if you’re in Longmont and craving fried chicken that actually delivers, grab a seat at The Post. Good food, good drinks, and good people. That’s all you really need.“

“Decided to go to Foothills Mall for the first time in years. While there I wanted to try this place since I like spicy food, especially chicken. They have a very simple menu. Chicken tenders and a couple sides and drinks. I got the three tender meal with fries and a drink. The tenders can be in four spicy levels (I got medium) and they have four dipping sauces (I got mango habanero). They gave me a pager since the food is fried to order. It took a bit but I like that the food then is fresh and hot and this cuts down on food waste. The tenders I got were very hot and I had to wait a few minutes to cool down a bit. A small pool of oil collected at the bottom of the container. I’m guessing that they came out of the fryer with little time to drain and were then dusted in the spice mix. The fries were a good amount and were also dusted in a seasoning mix. I didn’t see ketchup packets or a dispenser at the food counter so not sure if you have to ask for them since the wait staff didn’t ask if I wanted any. Lucky the fries’ seasoning reminded me of the seasoned fries at Red Robin so I didn’t need the ketchup. The tenders were good sized and the meat was very juicy with a very light breading. The chicken had a noticeable texture that gave a chewiness that was not the best feel. The tenders on they own tasted good as well as the sauce. Not sure if it was the sauce, the tender’s seasoning, or both combined but by the heat kept building and at the end of the meal my nose felt a tiny bit runny. Not what I expected for a medium spice level. Not bad over all.“

“The staff is always happy and courteous. The food is wonderful. I go there at least once a week.“
