5 Best Chicken Wings in Poughkeepsie

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Shirley's Soul Food, and I must say it was an experience filled with love, nostalgia, and outstanding flavors. This restaurant holds a special place in my heart as it pays homage to the chef's beloved grandmother, whose passion for cooking and dream of owning a restaurant come to life in this heartfelt establishment. From the moment I stepped inside, the warm ambiance and soulful atmosphere embraced me. Now, let's talk about the menu. Shirley's Soul Food offers a myriad of tantalizing options that cater to every craving. It's hard to choose just one favorite, but the turkey chili stole my heart. The rich, savory flavors combined with the perfect balance of spices left me wanting more with each spoonful. The mac and cheese, accompanied by tender yams and perfectly fried chicken, was a heavenly trio that danced on my taste buds. The harmony of creamy cheesiness, sweet yams, and crispy, golden chicken was an absolute delight. To complement these delectable dishes, I highly recommend trying their signature half-and-half lemonade and iced tea. The refreshing blend of citrusy tang and subtle sweetness was the perfect accompaniment to the soulful flavors of the meal. Pay them a visit, and let your taste buds embark on a journey of love and flavor!“

“While picking up our online order this afternoon, my son and I were pleasantly greeted by Mimi! She was so delightful, a bright smile on her face & quick to help us (even tho we were the only ones in the store) today’s world we don’t see that too often and I just wanted to take time to shine light on Mimi! I hope everyone gets to cross her path bc that 90 second encounter made my day!“

“Local chicken spot, can’t really say anything too bad lol. I’d done had pretty much everything on this menu lol. I mean to an outsider given it’s on the middle of main the location not the greatest but to anybody who lives here it’s just one of those places. They stay open later can’t go wrong.“
