4 people working, no one else in the store. 23 minutes for a side order of tenders. Asked the guy working how long does it usually take to make tenders “I don’t know” - fun times!

Down graded food-entire breading completely slides off chicken in dark brown clumps-slides off sandwich. Chicken is still okay but the is a gross soggy mess.
Ate 3 separate times with identical results.
When it opened it was outstanding, and living in the area, I would often eat in or take out a couple sandwiches for family.
Wrote manager twice, and was told first time that I had ‘lost’ them, and the second time got no response.
Like a lot of new restaurants, they back off the quality and staffing, once they have high foot traffic in order to cut costs.
Waiting area is like a bus station, with long lines of listless cranky crowds standing around, making diners feel cramped and uncomfortable.
I’m flipping them the bird!

The chicken was much thinner than all times in the past. Only 3/8" thick compared to sizes up to 1" in the past. I was very unhappy

As can be seen in pictures, chicken was paper-thin. I showed manager and he said "it's not usually like that," and then proceeded to do nothing about it. Flavor was fine but for a 12 dollar sandwich I expected more (and better service). Won't return and do not recommend unless you are rich and like very small portions and indifferent management.

Nice sandwiches takes a little longer to get them then it should. They seem to be focused primarily on to go orders.

The food is great. It is better to order before you go because it takes a while for them to make orders. That is the only downside. Also if online it says they have no biscuits always ask when you get to the store they usually have one hanging around! Also best ranch sauce and best frappes!

I ordered food online for my husband and I. When I got to Flip the bird, I picked up my food and requested an extra truffle ketchup and 1 packet of honey hot sauce. I was told I would have to be charged for any sauces. I didn’t bring my wallet in with me because I had paid for it online. I think it’s a bit ridiculous that they charge people for each individual sauce you request. They charged me $2.00 per sauce and it doesn’t come with much.

Amazing chicken sandwiches plus sauces! Great staff and clean shop. Expect to wait 3-7 mins for your order, but you won't be disappointed.

The Nashville Hot chicken sandwich was amazing. Unfortunately, the service had me so annoyed I couldn't really enjoy it. They messed up our order three times, and still, one person in our party didn't get their food. It's a shame they don't have better staff as the chicken isn't the problem here. The coleslaw is the worst I have ever tasted. They didn't bother to make enough chips for lunchtime, so the only option was trashy slaw or a three dollar upcharge per meal for fries. I really wanted to "Flip the Bird" on my way out of this wretched restaurant.

The chicken sandwich was top notch. I wish we could have sampled the hotter sauces but honestly it was all great. Amazing lemonade! It was refreshing. The fries were fresh.
