I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!

Couldn’t give you any less chicken if they tried. Way too pricey for the quality and amount of food. I’ve been here more than once and have been disappointed every time. Go to Raising Canes.

Every time my husband and I order from here, the food is consistently great! I highly recommend the buffalo sandwich, it has the perfect amount of spice without being overwhelming. The flavor is spot on, and it pairs perfectly with their crispy, well seasoned French fries. Definitely one of our go-to favorites!

I got chicken nuggets. I didn't find them as tasty as the location off Bladensburg rd in NE DC.

Falicia was so amazing at handling us with care during our first time here. She took her time in explaining everything on the menu..from popular items to just an overall view. She ensured us that we were going to like it. When I tell you, the honey chicken, almost didn’t make it out of the parking lot. It was soooo good. My son loved his wings and we shared fries. My son is not a fry kind of person but he enjoyed it so much! We will be back. Thank you so much!

I really came to write this review about Francia A. Roaming Rooster is new to me, so this was my first time today 8/4/25. I asked multiple questions and Francia was just so warm, friendly and helpful. Most people in customer service don’t really care, but she was just the nicest. The food is actually very tasty. But I will return because customer service is important to them, and I noticed that right away.
It’s a small space - it’s not conducive to large groups sitting down. They have a few seats inside and two tables outside.
You HAVE A GREAT EMPLOYEE in Francia A., Roaming Rooster 👏🏽😊👏🏽☺️

This is THE BEST CHICKEN AROUND!!! It's always so delicious and perfectly crunchy. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend this tucked away spot.
I recently visited your Woodmore location for the first time, and I want to share some feedback about my experience.
Unfortunately, my visit did not meet expectations. While I was looking forward to trying Roaming Rooster for the first time, the service left much to be desired. I mistakenly thought my number had been called — I was number 17, and number 16 had just been announced. I approached the counter believing my order was next, only to be met with rude and dismissive behavior from the staff.
A staff member (who I was told may have been the shift leader — she wore braids and glasses) loudly told me, “Your number is at the top of the receipt,” in a tone that felt unnecessarily condescending. Additionally, the environment was loud due to the volume of the music, which made it more difficult to clearly hear order numbers being called.
To make matters worse, I was not given a proper receipt because the machine ran out of paper, and no one offered to reprint it. This added to the confusion when trying to verify my order.
As someone who values good food and good service equally, I found this experience disappointing. I hope you will take this feedback into consideration to help improve customer service and training at this location. First impressions matter, and I genuinely hope future visits to your establishment reflect the positive reputation Roaming Rooster is known for.

Excellent food. Very fresh and tasteful. Outlr group had a variety of items including milkshakes. Very reasonable prices, quick service and fresh, hot food. Highly recommend.

Ate here for the first time a couple of nights ago and it was delicious! The buffalo chicken sandwich with blue cheese was so good! The fries are the best! The kids loved their honey butter chicken sandwich and chicken tenders as well!!! Definitely will be going there again...a new fave of fast food restaurants!

Possibly the best chicken sandwich I've ever had

Roaming Rooster in Crofton is a hidden gem. You absolutely have to know it's there. You can't see any signage from U.S. 301. If you love fried chicken sandwiches and boardwalk-style fries, you need to make the effort to find this shop. You can thank me later.
It's located on the backside of Dollar Tree in Crofton Center Shopping Center.
It's tiny. It reminds me of one of the delightful carryout in the working class neighborhoods in Baltimore. There's a tiny, ledge-of -a-counter with four barstools on the inside of the shop. Outside, there's a couple of poolside type tables, with the umbrellas mounted in the middle.
