25 Best Chicken Restaurants near Middle River

“Great chicken! If I can’t have my usual rotisserie chicken in NYC, this is a great substitute when I’m visiting!“

“It is my favorite place, except in some Chick-fil-A's in the area. I have to come home and fill the salad plate with my own to have a complete salad or else not enough. You only get 3/4 of a salad. Salads are to wet, sometimes not so fresh. But enough to decrease my trips to this fast food restaurant. My disappointment is just the with the salads because that is the only thing I buy and the kids meal for my daughter. The employees and the service is excellent.“

“I attempted to pationiz Peri Peri Original but the three people behind the counter couldn't open their mouths to speak...... So I'm on my way to Nando's.
Tip: Greet people when they enter your establishment, they don't have to spend their money with you.
****UPDATE 8/17/25
I had to change my original review that was negative. My second attempt was extremely positive. The staff was attentive and courteous which was an improvement and the food was delicious.“

“great food, quick service and friendly professional staff! Good place to take the kids for a healthier option the standard fast food in a family friendly environment.“

“😀Shout out to Canton Crossing. They handled our catering order back in March for 120+ orders and mac and cheese. It was organized, delivered on time, and perfectly prepared. Praise the Lord 'cuz no one wants to deal with a hangry group of guys. Thank you to Angela and team for the great food and flawless service!“

“When our car died, we went to Chick-fil-A while we waited for my husband to come jump the vehicle. We ordered one milkshake and asked for a few cherries. My son got one milkshake with an entire bottle of cherries on top and an entire bottle of cherries on the side. It made it what was a bad day, a very memorable and happy day for my 4-year old son! Thank you Chick-Fil-A!!“

“Food cooked to order, nicely seasoned. Highly recommend.“

“The ladies at Chick-fil-A have been exceptional in providing amazing catering services! I can’t recommend them enough! Thank you!!“

“Pollo saltado from Chicken Rico has been a favorite comfort food of mine for years. Sometimes it's extra saucy which is the best! But no matter what it's always delicious! Very casual spot for a quick bite or takeout. The tres leches is also amazing.“

“They have this deal at the moment for two 8 inch cheese steak subs for 13.50, which is really like 14 dollars after tax, so it ends up being 7 dollars per 8 inch sub. Might be too much for one person, but if you're two people, then it's a pretty cheap way to share a meal together. Relatively speaking at least. I do think the quality of the subs is a bit better at Spartan's Pizza down the street, but like I said, the price of this particular type of sub is significantly cheaper at the moment. If they change the prices later, then Idk.

Anyway, aside from that, their milk is pretty good. The price of a half-gallon is about 2.11 after tax, which is actually cheaper than the grocery store. Much cheaper than the 3.50 that they're charging at some other nearby convenience stores. Their gallon milk is about 3 something lately which is really cheap, relatively speaking 🤔.

Overall, it's a nice place and people seem to really like their chicken. I still haven't tried it yet because I just generally don't care about chicken that much. But they do have a lot of other things except cheese steak subs lol. It's just that I've only ever eaten that thus far. The people that work there are nice, honestly even the people that go there seem to be pretty nice. So I'd definitely recommend checking them out sometime if you're in the area.

Recently realized that there's a second floor dining area with tables and chairs which is pretty cool. Idk how I never noticed that before 😆“

“Definitely call ahead to order because they get very busy at times, especially at night. Great food for a great price I got the #6 2 pc catfish combo and fries for 8.99. the box was filled with fries on the bottom, and the catfish pieces were very big, it was almost like you were eating 4 pieces from another restaurant. The fried chicken is also pretty good too, 11.99 was how much it cost for 8 pieces and it was cooked well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a cheap but good restaurant to eat at.“

“My favorite place to get a good cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwich they even have fresh watermelon that's really good and it's sweet

Parking: They have a parking lot that they share with the health building next door but street parking is available I think before 8 a.m. you don't have to pay to park if you're just running into get your food your fine“

“I just finished eating at the Popeyes at White Marsh the chicken is extra extra extra extra good and the guys that work on this daytime Francisco works on day shift always treat very very nice He always remember me because I come in once a week Keep the good work up Guys“

“I’ll be honest, I was both excited and skeptical about trying Wonder when it first opened. The whole concept seemed a little strange to me, and I wasn’t sure how it would actually work. Since they were offering 50% off for first time customers when I went, I figured it was worth a try.

We ordered a pizza from Alanza, a double cheeseburger from Burger Baby, and a Build Your Own Bowl from El Diez. Funny enough, the burger, which was the item I was least excited about based on how it looked, ended up being my favorite. It was honestly one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time. The pizza was a little overdone, but I actually like my pizza that way, so no complaints there. The bowl was good too, though I felt like it was missing a little something. Maybe some extra lime or cilantro would have given it more of that fresh Mexican flavor.

I’d definitely come back and try some of the other restaurants they have. I also really liked the atmosphere. It was quiet, clean, and didn’t feel chaotic, which was nice. The kitchen area looked especially clean, which always leaves a good impression.

If you’ve been curious about Wonder and are looking to try something different, I’d say it’s worth checking out, especially while they’re offering 50% off for new customers. There’s a huge variety of food options, so it’s easy for everyone in your group to find something they’ll enjoy. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised and left more impressed than I expected to be.“

“This was my first time trying krispy krunchy chicken. Wasn't disappointed. Love popeyes & royal farms with church's rounding out my top 3. Krispy has now entered this stratosphere in my opinion. The only chicken crunchier would be Kfc extra crispy that's extremely hard to find. Would love to see more Krispy Krunchy Chicken stand alone. Keep up the great job!“

“I’m from Alabama & wanted some soul food so I goggled soul food in the ESSEX area SOUL DELISHAUS appeared. I ordered 3 plates for me & other family members. Our food was delicious the customer service from Rita(the owner) was fantastic. I went back the following week & our food was delicious again. Whenever I’m in Maryland I will surely stop by your establishment.“

“I’ve been to this Pollo Campero location multiple times and have always had a good experience. On my most recent visit, I ordered the 2-piece meal with yuca fries. The food was fresh and made to order, which I could tell because it took a few minutes to come out. We dined in, and the staff brought the food directly to our table. The chicken was hot and fresh, the yuca fries were great, and the staff was friendly throughout the visit. Overall, it’s a reliable spot that I keep coming back to, and I’d definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a good meal.“

“Love this place from the fresh food to the friendly staff and clean environment… boss and I go every Friday just about can’t really say I’ve had a bad experience from this location . The manager I believe can’t remember his name but very friendly polite and just provides a good experience when visiting. I recommend going to this location if at all possible.“

“This place is in need of a make over it looks like a dirty thumb. I don't go inside because I think I might catch something it's in a dying area behind a police barracks and I still fell like I'm going to get robbed. Driving behind this place to get to the drive thru window in a unlite area prime spot to eob or jack a care be cautious and don't go after sundown. You have been warned“

“Fast food is not what it used to be( Little Tavern from years ago come to mind). Chick- fil- A is the King of the mountain in reference to quality of food, service & how they train their young associates. The essence of this keeps regulars returning time after time. It makes me feel good when the young associate looks me in the eye, smiles & later tells me it was their pleasure to serve me. It means a lot to go to a counter & not just get stared at like you the customer shld just start talking without being addressed. I appreciate CFA's service principle.“

“I like this particular NY fried chicken The food is delicious and the customer service is excellent and friendly.“

“I've always been a sucker for a great chicken sandwich! These def don't disappoint. I've always added sauces to mine as when they come plain with a pickle it just seems to be lacking a certain pizzazz which a bit of mayo & chick fill a sauce remedies immediately! I've also lived for their newer sandwiches that come with yummy add ons including cheese Tomato & delicious sauces“

“Great customer service and delicious food and a clean restaurant“

“Five stars! Drove out of my way for a better KFC. Very glad I did so. Ordered a 12 piece meal. They were out of wings. No biggie, the manager was happy to substitute. Very friendly and efficient. Food looks and tastes great. New favorite KFC.“
