I use to live in Robstown but move to San Antonio and I remember how good this chicken was when I was little and I can for my birthday cause that’s what I wanted and man it’s still the same. It’s FREAKEN GOOD. Well worth the trip.

Gizzards are okay. Would be way better if they had some type of hot sauce!

Very nice people and very fresh food thought the chicken was just okay a little bit salty. But for the price I am not complaining at all!

I got the chicken fried steak, my husband got the tenders and my grandson got the 2 pc chicken. All had fries and a roll. Everything, and I mean Everything had so much salt it was inedible. The chicken fried steak is prefrozen, the coleslaw was warm, there were no utensils or napkins, not even condiment packages. Sorry but I won't be driving 30 minutes out of my way again.

Wow the best fried chicken I have ever tasted. NOT heavily breaded. Just dusted with flour and delicious spicey "sprinkles"?. The skin was super crispy, chicken cooked just right and the fries were also sprinkled in the great spice. They have delicious gizzards and a gravy to die for. Can't wait to go back someday just to get some chicken.

The chicken is fresh and made to order. When I came I could see the owner butchering the chickens up to go on the fryer. You won't find a better place within 250 miles.

All I can say is I went back everyday for a week it's that good. ?
I always visit this place when I visit my mom in Robstown. They have the best tasting chicken anywhere! The fries are addictive too with the special seasoning that they sprinkle liberally on both the chicken and fries! Mmmm good!
Table was dirty which is expected to be outside but it looked unclean for days and it was kinda annoying that they didn't have drinks or condiments and they did tell us they didn't have condiments till after having to walk down the street to get drinks. Overall food was good fresh a lil over seasoned. Give that old rugged aesthetic that some ppl might like.

Looking for a place to stop for lunch in our way home from SPI to SA, I read about this tiny place in Robstown that was featured on Texas Eats. Giant chicken strips with creamy chicken gravy? Yes please! We called ahead about 20 mins out and our order was ready for takeout when we arrived, piping hot and fresh. My husband and I should’ve split an order - it comes with 4 massive strips and fries. We could each only eat two, even though we mostly skipped the two rolls and fries - which were basic frozen fries doused in over-salty seasoning. I deducted one star for the fries, and the chicken was a bit salty as well. Still worth a stop if you are in the area and craving mass quantities of tasty and inexpensive chicken!

The chicken when fresh is really good especially with the seasoning they use. The gizzards with gravy on top is the reason I still eat here when I'm in town visiting family. Been eating Barrera's for over 40 years and it's a staple in Robstown. Great service as usual!
