Welp, I did want wings but don’t really trust people to make my food that are comfortable enough to sleep on the job then wakes up and uses his hand to wipe drool off his face.

I enjoy eating at the Chicken Shack, but I must come during the worst times because food waits seem to be 20-40 mins consistently. However, I always enjoy the wraps and their garlic fries. I feel they are fairly priced and food is always fresh. Service is pretty brief, but I find myself having to ask about their wait times prior to ordering or when I go out in a group at the Barn others will have their food and be ready to leave and 40 mins later I’ll still be waiting. Sometimes, totally worth the wait though.

Love this place! Favorite chicken strips in town. Just dropped on and Hannah and Nick were super nice and helped me make my sauce choices. They have a variety of sauces, many that I haven’t seen elsewhere. One of em is pink. Highly recommend the house southern and sweet chili!

The sides and sauces are worth praise. Can’t help but recommend the sweet corn bites and garlic fries with their mango habanero sauce and spicy ranch . Sadly for a chicken place their chicken left a lot to be desired. I got the chicken fingers and it was under seasoned and crusted in the texture of soggy cornflakes that fell off before most bites. Very disappointing when the sweet corn nuggets had phenomenal breading.

Tried the chicken finger basket with mac and two sauces. Also ordered a side of garlic fries to try. Everything was delicious. Chicken pieces were large, moist and perfectly breaded. The garlic fries - stupid good. How do you Know that you have put enough garlic on something… It seeps out your pores for days. LOL Try this food truck out at the Barn. You won’t be disappointed.

Amazing fried chicken! I ordered wings with sauce on the side and was soo impressed. Great texture, not greasy, nice flavor, some of the best fried chicken Ive had. Asked for the order to go and recieved it in a basket. Ordered a garlic sauce but recieved a barbecue.

The chicken and fries were absolutely incredible. My wife is a huge fan of white meat breast pieces and these are phenomenal. Will definitely have again and recommend to anyone who like fried chicken. .

For 30 minutes of waiting when one person walked up every five minutes or less, I was surprised it was so mid. Chicken was stringy and not spiced in any noticeable way so I'm spicing them up at home, fries were only ok, mac salad was fine.

The chicken fingers were moist and crispy. I also had sweet potato waffle fries. The service was quick and friendly. The barn is a fun atmosphere.

We were excited l to try this new food cart but were very disappointed. Food was OK- chicken was large breast pieces, bigger than normal tenders but with very light batter that was not really enough to be crispy and resulted in fairly dry, chewy meat. Fried pickles were sliced rounds in a thick cornmeal coating that would have been great on spears but was too thick for the small thin rounds. Sweet potato fries were awesome but since they put the food fresh from the fryer in Styrofoam containers, the Styrofoam had melted spots and it shriveled the lid of the sauce in the pickles container. We didn't use that sauce and picked out the fries touching the top and bottom. The chicken was put on a paper liner, but not the sides. These are basic food safety issues, so the hunt for fried chicken continues.
