“It had been nearly 6 years since I last went to Chicken Salad Chick. Me and my mother had the opportunity to go during their grand opening. While the atmosphere and service were fantastic, the chicken salad at the time was just ok. I was curious to see how the restaurant was one afternoon and went there for lunch. There were an average amount of people for lunch.

Going inside, I was surprised to not only see already packed chicken salad that people can purchase to take home for the family, but also that they expanded the menu to included different types of Chicken Salad from savory types, spicy types, and healthier types with fruits and nuts.
I also saw that they now added pimento as another option for people to get along with egg salad as well as the option to place your favorite chicken salad or pimento into a sandwich.
I ended up ordering a trio combo which had a scoop of the Classic Carol, a scoop of the Cranberry Kelli and a side soup of Loaded Potato Salad along with several crackers and a butterscotch cookie. The meal was fantastic with the Cranberry Kelli being the best with both a slightly salty and sweet taste. The soup was really creamy and paired well with the crackers.

There were a large variety of customers from families to people on their lunch break from work. The staff were also really helpful and kind with one of them picking up my finished basket to dispose of the trash as I was about to get up and do it myself. I thanked her for it. I was so impressed by the service and food that I decided to buy some chicken salad to go for my parents. When I told them that it was my first time coming here since they first open, the man at the register smiled and said “ Well, welcome back.” I can start to see why this place has managed to stay popular after all these years.

Vegetarian options: Pimento cheese options are offered.

Dietary restrictions: When looking at the menu when going up to order in house, the amount of calories per scoop of Chicken Salad or Pimento Cheese are showed alongside the prices.“

“I’ve always been treated nice here and the food is great especially the brown gravy. If you want to pay double for breakfast please go to Waffle House. And if you want people to treat you poor darlings nice please stay home. Well maybe!“

“Great Food, Great Service, Great Value!

I recently enjoyed a fantastic lunch with my son at Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen. The friendly host quickly seated us, and our server promptly arrived with warm, buttery croissants and took our drink order.

We started with delicious cheese curds, and our main courses were equally impressive. My son's chicken and shrimp dish was a hit, while I indulged in the renowned country-fried steak with a generous side salad and creamy mashed potatoes.

The portions were incredibly generous
– the side salad could have easily been a meal on its own!

The combination of excellent food, attentive service, and affordable prices made for a truly enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a satisfying meal.“
