Chicken Shops in Lexington, KY

“For anyone looking for spicy & crispy fried chicken sandwich or tenders, this is an absolute must try. Food quality is excellent for those seeking flavor and spice. Fries were great, chicken was crispy and tender. The Dave's sauce was very delicious with the sandwich or fries. Overall, highly recommended for food variety and quality. Looks like they are a small chain with small staff, so dining space/tables is not that kept up depending on the time you go. Very friendly service.

Vegetarian options: Not much, other than just the fries which are really good.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are a few parking spots for the disabled.“

“My husband and I just ate at the Lexington location. 10 out of 10 recommend!!! Great service and great food. We will be back next time we come to town.“

“A big shout out to Gus's for all their support of our first responders and kids. Love that Chicken and their mac and cheese!“

“I was did drank an one ½ sweet ½ unsweet tea and it's was delicious. During my social moment with the kind people on the cash registers, I feel welcomed and honored to dine on Canes DB1.“

“They just have SOLID CHICKEN! One of the best fast food restaurants for chicken lovers! Easily in my top 3 places🙌

Dietary restrictions: They do have “naked” chicken which works really well for Gluten Free options. My girlfriend loves it as she is Gluten Free“

“I am writing to commend your employee, Matthew, at your 2305 Sir Barton Way location in Lexington, KY. He was so pleasant and cheerful, despite being the ONLY employee in the building during a lunch rush. Greeting customers, taking orders, cooking, and delivering food to tables with a smile. Like the rest of the world, Joella’s is short staffed, and that’s understandable. But I hope that the people who make the decisions are able to give this sweet man a raise or bonus or BOTH! Thank you Matthew for the excellent service! Kassie and Joel Durham“

“I'm so impressed with the staff that was on duty the evening we came to celebrate my sons birthday. Our group of kids made a mess, but the counter clerk was absolutely the most gracious about it and insisted she take care of the clean up!! They had our tailgate food hot and ready as requested. Thank you Zack King General Manager and your team“

“Awesome place to dine. One of my favorite places to eat.“

“The best fried chicken in the literal world. The truth. 🤯🌎🍗🙏🖤“

“It's very rare I give 5 stars, so when I rate 4, it's as close to perfect as you can get. The food was fresh and hot, it was a drive through visit, and it was quick. The employee that I did speak to was pleasant and smiling. Would recommend and will return again!“

“Stopped in for breakfast had 40+ people in a tourbus they had taken every ones order in 15 minutes and in about another 10 we all had our food! All done in a polite professional manner going out of their way to make sure everyone got what they wanted. The facilities were very clean and well kept!“

“Let's talk breakfast...I know that everyone associates CFA, with just Chicken sammies...but, hear me out, don't sleep on the other offerings...their sausage egg n cheese muffin.. obliterates both Mcds and Wendy's...equally proportioned...a pattie that tastes like actual sausage...fluffy scrambled egg with cheese on a nice toasted muffin ...the hash rounds are standard..but accessorizes this ensemble...“

“I went through drive through and my food wasn't ready.So no one said anything to me.Instead, they took care of everyone behind me, which was about six cars. When my food was ready, they didn't even say sorry for the weights of course, service.“

“Very good food nice atmosphere“

“This chick fil a has its work cut out for them. Lots of hungry students and faculty around lunch time. They always try to move efficiently and quickly. However, it can take some time to get your order but I’ve never waited more than 5-10 minutes. The food is always hot. My one downside is the soda machines are not always dispensing the drinks “properly” but with students presumably using them all day I can see how they require more maintenance than most. For a student center chick fil a, you can’t ask for much better.“

“I have had it a few times at work only because the boss would treat us to lunch, but first time actually being there. Love the selection, and I'm told its a christian chain restaurant and it even closes on Sundays. I love it, I heard all the hate others have but this place is loving and welcoming. If loving god is a bad thing then I'm the baddest their is, always have my support and you guys have a new customer“

“I'm not a big fan of the oil they use and their sides portions are small but great atmosphere and service. Definitely recommend going that way you can form your own opinion. Definitely better than KFC. Maybe next time I'll try a sandwich instead.“

“Always so busy, and it seems the service gets slower each time. Even going in is atleast a 7-10 minute wait fo a simple order. However, the quality of service is great. Everyone is always pleasant. The restaurant inside was clean and play area was clean ?? too! The food is 8/10 times always great..(to be fast food) its a little pricey when you're feeding a family, but just a solo quick brunch, dinner etc is pretty reasonable.

Vegetarian options: Salads, smoothies, lemonade

Kid-friendliness: Play area is pretty cool, wish they has a more 'big/older kid' section..(8-11 yrs old)

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps are in place, electric entrance & exits, wheelchair accessible bathroom stall“

“Last weekend I went with my school on a field trip. Going through the line was fine, but as we got up to the counter the lady told us that the pop machine was down. Lemonade was a 10/10, the waffle fries were over salted, but other than that it was pretty good. Only issue I had was the woman who took the name from the order got my boyfriends name wrong, he told her "Ruiz, R-U-I-Z" and she put "Ryez" on the order lol. It was funny after though cause the guy who read it off looked just as confused as we were 💀“
