50 Best Chicken Restaurants in Philadelphia

“Can not speak to Atmosphere because my order was delivered, but the food was fantastic. This is my second time having the chicken and it is by far the best! The only thig was the time it took for us to receive our order was a bit longer than I would have liked (90+ minutes)“

“Tried Asad’s in Pottstown for the first time today. The slider was great and that Asad’s sauce, wow!!! Whatever you guys are doing keep it up!“

“Actually we went to the one in Bensalem that recently opened , food was excellent, very clean & very friendly.. Definitely will go again .

Vegetarian options: I didn’t try vegetarian this time but definitely will in the future

Parking: Well it’s in a shopping center , so parking was not an issue.“

“Absolutely loved the service, esther is super Friendly and was very instrumental with helping us with navigating the menu options. This was our first time coming here as we were just pasting thru and craved some chicken...the place smells amazingly delicious.“

“Loaded fries, 16 piece wings and a blessed day smoothie!!“

“We have a few hot chicken restuarants near where I'm at, but they don't compare to Daves Hot Chicken. Their chicken are always fresh and I've never seen breading fall off the chicken compared to other hot chicken restuarants. Molly and the rest of the colleagues who work here are really kind as well.“

“Late cold night. Glad to find a spot open and good chicken and Mac and cheese. Cool ppl working there!!!“

“Can’t wait to try the chicken chaap . My absolute favorite“

“Love this place! Very well customer service, had a bit of trouble tryna figure out what to eat until an employer named Laney told me to try the cobb salad with crispy chicken, absolutely delicious! Thank you Big Chicken and thank you Laney!“

“I can't tell you how refreshing it is to find a place that is both excellent and inexpensive. For $15 you can get two chicken sandwiches and a good amount of fries. Many other places charge $15 for a single sandwich.But not only is it inexpensive, it is delicious. We've been several times now, and the chicken is always freshly fried and cooked to perfection with the perfect balance of jucieness and crispyness. Sandwiches come with pickles, coleslaw, and your choice of sauce. I recommend the hot honey. The fries are seasoned and good as well.I frequently order fried chicken sandwiches when I'm out and I see them on the menu. This place is one of the best in the city. Check it out and give them some love!“

“I had a good experience in this place. The food was good. However, the service was not as good. Cashier are a little inpatient with clients that struggle with the language, making the store look unprofessional. Overall, this is a really peaceful and quiet place but the service could be better.“

“Food is delicious and a great price. Amazing service and love this add on to south street.“

“Traveling to Philadelphia, I wanted to support a black-owned business. I found BlackHen like most people (through social media of course). The name and the bold decor caught my eye. So creative! I made reservations on Open table (as it's a smaller venue) HIGHLIGHTS: Bri was our waitress , she was very polite and kind. I ordered the 4 wings, with collard greens and candied Yams. I also ordered a Mac and cheese. Oh my goodness... the food was all that. I thought I was in the South. Everything came out hot 🔥. It was crazy delicious. Chicken was fried just right and seasoned so well. My taste buds waa trying to figure it out! Greens were just right not too vinegar and not too sweet. They also had a "kick' to it. Candied Yams could really be the dessert. It was good. The Mac and cheese was.on point. ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT: The meal didnt come with bread or cornbread (I didn't realize it till I was finished) Music- I thought i saw somewhere, that R&B music waa played. Rap (with explicit language) was the only thing in rotation. My daughter is 15 and she commented to me about the music since there waa a family there with two minor kids Please dont look at this as a negative review. Whenever. I'm in Philly. I WILL visit again. The branding caught my eye, but its the food that will have me return.“

“My parents were looking for authentic Philly cheese steaks that were halal and we stumbled upon this place. The afghani owners were nice and very respectful. The food were made fresh and they were delicious. Wish there were more tables so we can eat a bit more comfortably but the food AH is amazing. Will definitely come back if we are visiting Philly iA.“

“I rated them very highly based on my previous experiences but they have been closed since last October sadly. They appear to be opening again soon. Has anyone heard anything about when they will open up this location again“

“Yummy 😋 and fast!!! Even when the lines are long it moves pretty fast!“

“Great team, service and food was delicious!“

“First this may be the best Popeyes in the chain. Company or franchise. The manager in the picture SA is incredibly nice. The other part of the picture is the cleanliness, this is during lunch rush. Food was incredibly fresh. If your in West Philly come to 56th and Lancaster for lunch you won't be disappointed!!! Thanks again SA!!!!“

“My family loves coming to this location. It is always super clean. The employees are efficient, friendly and great with kids!“

“Sooooo tasty! Definitely a generous portion of comfort food! If you like spice, my favorite is the Chicken, Lamb and Rice with red (hot) and white sauce. With or without the hot sauce it is excellent! Fast and accommodating - I called ahead and my order of 6 platters and 8 gyros was ready for me when I arrived.“

“I had a taste for some Popeye's Chicken 2nite. I ordered a spicey breast & biscuit. The sales girl,who was nice, gave me a nice, large piece & biscuit & Honey. That hit the spot. I am full and satisfied. I had a nice, pleasant experience at this Popeye's restaurant. ☺👍💯✔“

“I love Popeyes! Great chicken and sides! Chicken is always nice and hot and biscuits are buttery and flakey. Chicken is crunchy. Just the way I like it!“

“Mukhtar is truly a great owner of Crowd Friend Chicken because he genuinely cares about his community. He’s not just running a business; he’s helping out his Pukhtoon brothers by providing them with delicious food and a welcoming place to gather. His dedication to supporting his culture and people shines through in every aspect of the establishment. Much love from Virginia to Mukhtar for keeping the spirit alive and serving up great food with heart!“

“This Place has been getting better. The manager Mohammad is really professional and well mannered. He handle the customer complaint in a very respectful way and resolved the issue within seconds. First time seeing a manager with polite attitude.“

“I ate in. It is very clean. I got the 4 for 5 deal. I think it is a good value. The soda was another 2.50. So 8.09 for three pieces of dark meat, a biscuit, and a drink. The chicken is crunchy and hot. The biscuit is surprisingly good.
My friend brought this chicken to our grief share meeting. I have been meaning to come here. I am glad I did.“

“The chicken was juicy and fried perfectly. I got a side of mashed potatoes and gravy which was bland as all hell. Like not an ounce of season on it. The roll that it came with was good tho,toasted just right. Id go back but will not get the mash,I had to work my MOJO on them when I got home.“

“I know it’s kinda weird to see a review for fast food restaurants, but honestly I think this is the best Popeyes in the city. Consistently better made food and better service than other Popeyes I’ve been to. Sometimes yk they’ll make mistakes here and there but it’s fast food. Nice staff, peaceful lil spot on Spring Garden.Thank you Popeyes workers who work here if you see this!!“

“It halal and fresh chicken and burger“

“My names Allen I from out of town and wanted something to eat it was Friday around 10 in the morning to so I walked pass this place that was open and decided to give it a shot so I walk in and Immediately was greeted by this guy i asked him his name he said denis so that was first so then he help me with ordering cause it was a little confusing so he offered to help and I ask him what he recommends he said the bacon cheddar ranch and he said they fries are better then Mc......'s lol u know ? but the food was absolutely delicious I will definitely come back to Philadelphia for hatch and coop“

“Atmosphere is a funny rating because it’s a gas station lol but honestly the people working were friendly and there’s a security guard in there too. I honestly wasn’t expecting much but I’m staying close to this gas station and after tracing from charlotte to Philly and not sleeping for about 40 hours, this chicken hits! I’m not even kidding. It’s crispy as hell with good flavor! I don’t think it’s the exhaustion talking I think the food is actually that good. I don’t write reviews but this was needed. I also got the Mac and cheese, if you’re looking for baked home cooked looking Mac and cheese this ain’t it but I enjoyed it! Also got mashed potatoes and gravy. The gravy reminded me of those gravy mix packets my dad used to use and I can’t tell you how happy it made me. The flavor of the gravy is yummy! Thank you guys!“

“I love chinese food period. But I like this hood corner chinese store because they have thee best chicken wings ever! They also have these tempura shrimp on a stick that are delicious! You get 5 ok sized shrimp in a batter for a dollar. Pricing is good too.“

“Fast, fresh hot and friendly! The women working today on 6 April for the lunch rush were great! Efficient, friendly and welcoming. 10/10 would recommend. And the 🍓🍋🔥 the strawberry lemonade is out of this world.“

“i went at 8 o’clock today and it was busy so I did a mobile pick up. I waited about 8 minutes in my car and then walked in. My order was just finishing up. They forgot one item bur when I asked they gave it to me right away ! Quick and amazing customer service. Staff were also moving both dine in and pick up orders fast. 10/10 location and staff“

“Update since their upgrade : A lot better. They updated the building. The newer staff other than the ones they kept seem to be more professional. Long as they keep it up and get people there that actually care the only downside would be that this location doesn’t have a drive thru option.“

“I used to not like popeyes that much untill i crosses paths with this location they have never ever NEVER messed up my order it is always hot and fresh and if they tell you “5 minutes wait” just know its finna be FIRE HOT AND CRISPY JUICY EVEN. The popeyes be so fresh and good i be forgetting that its fastfood. Dont play with dis location its fire go try some RN HO“

“Wonderful experience at this location! Courteous staff , clean store, fast service. Ordered a #1 & #2. Came fresh. I just would like to commend the team here at Stenton Ave bc I just had the worst experience at Old York Rd just minutes before. First time at this location and I'll be there again 🫶🏿“

“I have seen Jollibee on social media platforms and was eager to try it. Finally, I was able to in Philadelphia (Northeast)! My hubby and I loved it!!! The chicken joy was joyous. The mango peach pie was so crunchy delicious! The whole experience was so Jollibee good!!“

“Love the quick service here. You're in and out in no time. Parking lot is kind of hidden so this was my first time going. I took my time finding it. You'll have to use the Target entrance, but at the first stop sign make a left away from Target. At the bottom of the hill follow it around as if you are going to park under Target.“

“Got me some chicken and a few beef patties. The store was clean and organized. The staff was very nice and funny. He had me and my wife laughing. The food was good n hot he made us some fresh patties and two extra chicken wings. All the service was good . No problems here“

“We were rushing for a connection flight to Dublin on Thursday evening past. The counter had just closed, but the manager and staff allowed us into the queue telling us that they’d get us whatever was left. We managed to get all of the meals that we wanted and were even given a few extra cookies free. Brilliant friendly team, and hopefully the manager and staff that were on duty on Thursday as we rushed from the LA flight to the Dublin flight get a bit of recognition for their lovely customer service !“

“I gotta say this is the first crown fried chicken that I’ve come to that I actually enjoyed the food and it was good and it tasted fresh trust me this will be the only one that I’m coming back to thank you guys for awesome meal I like that“

“Very kind people they all treat me with respect and the food is just very good. I always order the cheesesteak combo from here and I gotta say it’s the best cheesesteak around the area, also the best crown fried philly, compared to others this isn’t dry and it haves a good amount of steak.“

“I am always satisfied when I come here- the service is always fast and friendly. They only have a few booths but they always seem to have one open when I choose to dine in. The drive thru is always popular but moves really quickly. And it’s always clean inside. Great place for a fast food option on Broad Street. Thanks for all your hard work to all of you at Popeyes!“

“The service was fast. The atmosphere is clean. The food is good but don't expect the crown fried chicken of the past, this is definitely halal food. We didn't like the rice in the halal (it had a funny taste) but everything else was as to be expected. We ordered the chicken wings, chicken and rice halal, sweet potato pies and a half/half drink.“

“Best chicken for taste, quality, and quantity for the price! One of the main reasons I don't frequent KFC as often as I used to is the high cost. Krispy Krunchy Chicken is the perfect cost effective way to have your chicken and eat it too.“
