“Wonderfully friendly staff. They made it easy when I didn’t really see what I wanted on the menu by accepting custom orders. Delicious biscuits; butting extra to take back to Airbnb for the morning. I truly believe it when they say they are mission-driven.“

“Wonderful employees greet you with a smile and serve you with passion. Comfortable atmosphere to dine in. The food is of good quality and was exactly what I would expect from a place of this name. Cheese balls and chicken salad that range from traditional to spicy. This place knows chicken salad and that takes center stage. If you love chicken salad or have a random chicken salad craving, give this place a try. Some may find it just okay as it meets expectations. Others may find it absolutely amazing. But given my experience, can't imagine any dispoontments. This chain earns it's name. 🐔“

Our waitress Summer was friendly and efficient. There was no wait to order or get our food and drinks. The fish tank and paddle fans are beautiful. We had spasagna and shrimp Alfredo. It was delicious!“
