6 Best Chicken Restaurants near Southern Pines

“I’m not sure how o never been, but OMG Taglios. I stopped and note to self, don’t stop hungry again lol. Got a full roasted chicken with two sides and a sales. The service was wonderful, best chicken I’ve had in pretty much forever and the sides were delicious. The sprouts could have roasted another 5-10 minutes but still yummy. Not sure why the line wasn’t out the door or how I’ve missed this for so long but I expect to be a regular when in Southern Pines for sure!“

“My family and I have been here several times and always great. This last time is what made me want to write a review. We went to the cake shop beside it for my daughter's birthday cake. Got the little individual cakes but the cashier didn't offer us forks or napkins, no where to sit and eat inside, no drinks. Just get you cake and leave. So we sat at the patio area near Chicken Salad Chick and I went inside to get my family drinks. Well they didn't know my family's situation or $$ struggles we are going through but the whole staff did something special and kind and 100% helped our day go smoother. Even little things of kindness can help in big ways!! I just wanted to say thank you and we appreciate you guys!!!“

“Live Smithfields but the quality of the chicken has lessened. Split instead of full chicken breaks and tenders are now little tenderloins. Taking a break from here for a while until food prices get better for everyone. Been disappointed the last 3 visits.“

“This is the most friendliest restaurant my cousin and myself have been to. Aaron is a great manager!!! 10+++ for him. The employees liyah, Braylin, Mari, liyah, Braelen., and Aubrey had great personalities and made this restaurant a very friendly place to eat!!! They all deserve kudos for their excellent customer service! Service with a smile goes a long way! You should be very proud of this crew that worked on Thursday evening, June4,2026!!! Awesome job everyone!!!

“Plenty of hot food options. Best durn tater wedges around! Prices are fair and the owner (I assume she's the owner) is always pleasant to deal with with a big smile. "Would you like something to eat? ?" The gas station itself also has a few good options for drinks, snacks, etc.“

“The staff was very very nice. The food was hot. They ran out of extra crispy but substituted regular, and in the process turned our 6 piece into a very large 7 piece. Sides were hot, chicken was delicious a door the team was fast. I will be returning!“
