I always get the grilled chicken wrap, it’s great and specifically not dry like the other places, they have a variety of different sauces but I recommend the cheeks one, they also give out big portions. super nice and polite and the food is halal as well Definitely swing by and try it!

This place been in business for few years but now it's under a new ownership.

We had Grilled Chicken Delux Sandwich, 3 piece Chicken Tenders and Waffle as well as Fried Pickle Chips. Everything tasted very good.
The Sandwich had good ratio or bread to Chicken to condiments in it.
The Chicken Tenders were very good (not Restaurant depot tenders). Waffle was good too.

The service was good.
There are couple picnic type of tabls for dine in option. Max about 15 people.
There is enough free parking.
The prices are reasonable.

I'm a regular customer of Cheeks, been having their amazing chicken tenders and sandwiches for quite some time now. I stopped in today after watching the awesome Deadpool & Wolverine, just few minutes drive from the Manchester movie theater. I ordered their grilled chicken sandwich and tater tots, just as awesome as the movie! I loved every bite!

It's the food taste from this Southern chicken gem that keeps me coming back for more. Hands down the BEST TASTING CHICKEN TENDERS I've ever had from any restaurant! With all the unique sauces, they're in a universe of their own! Since I've been coming here, the food taste is the same that it's always been, savory, crunchy and licking your lips delicious. The first time I had their waffles, I immediately ordered another one to treat my taste buds. Recently I've noticed the place is cleaner and more welcoming, and I love that everything is made fresh. You can really taste the difference when it's made fresh! Sometimes I'll sit at one of their classic picnic tables and have my meal there. In my opinion, the presentation and food quality has gotten better. Last time I shared my food pics with friends, I got all heart-eye emojis and one drooling face.

The portion size for the food is amazing, you really get your money's worth. It's a great choice for big groups and gatherings. Their food really fills you up! Consider checking them out next time you want killer tenders, wings and waffles. Those are my favorites from their menu.

Parking: Plenty of parking spots in front of the restaurant

Kid-friendliness: Kids will love their tenders and fries!

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is on street level and is wheelchair accessible

The beloved previous owners who ran the original food truck that turned into this brick and mortar location have been bought out by some random indians who now make sub par chicken and are posting multiple fake 5 star reviews about how 'great' the new halal options are. They are not real reviews and I'm saddened to see the amazing hispanic chefs I knew and loved for years no longer here.

The food doesn't taste the same and the quality has taken a massive turn for the worse. The wait time is also much longer than before. I used to call in and get a chicken sandwich in under 10 min. Today it took over 35 min. for a single sandwich.

I went here one time and there was this guy eating his chicken in the back room in a disgusting way. He rang me out with his fingers drenched in sauce. The food was okay but I will never come back here again because that was so gross.
