8 Best Chicken Restaurants in Temple

“I’ve been in the food industry for over 25 years, and Ernie’s Fried Chicken is easily one of the best places I’ve ever been to. I stopped in for breakfast and ended up grabbing two of the Ernie’s big breakfast burritos, and I was greeted with a genuine smile from Patrick right away.

Even more impressive, Patrick was working alone during a busy morning rush, yet he still made time to bring my food and drink directly to my table with great service and care. That kind of hospitality is rare.

The restaurant itself is extremely clean, well-kept, and offers a great variety of drink options. Whether you’re looking for a solid breakfast, a quick bite, or even lunch, this place fits it all.

If you’re a breakfast person like me, this spot will honestly feel like it heals your inner child. It’s that good.

If you’re searching for one of the best places to eat in town, this is it. Huge thank you to Ernie’s, the entire staff, and especially Patrick—you guys are doing something really special here.“

“The food is awesome! It used to be my mom’s favorite place to eat! She was an 85 year old Caniac when he passed away...“

“My mom and I tried this today for the first time. Let me tell you for a fast casual restaurant it is very nice and is definitely something different vs eating the same old fast food everyday! The food was great, the service was great (they let you taste test the different types of chicken salad to see if you like it), and the atmosphere was nice and quiet even though the restaurant was full. It was very enjoyable. I don’t typically leave reviews very often but felt the need to with this one!!“

“I visit this location nearly every morning to get my Diet Dr. Pepper! They have the best around. Every day, Deneane is there it makes my day! She is kind, pleasant, and makes me feel so special! I've seen her pick up trash outside in the parking lot, take orders in the rain, train employees in the window, and much more. I'm not sure who her manager is, but they should know she is an asset! Her smile is contagious, and her focus on the customer is endearing! Keep is up Deneane! You're #1 at Chick Fil A and keep me coming back!“

“The food is really good & service is always friendly!😊“

“Excellent food .great place grest service.“

“I ate most of them before post sorry, I don't care for their biscuits, but the chicken is amazing I got the two pc before and shared with my daughter. This time I got chicken nuggets and like someone said previously crispy not greasy and good sizes and seems like chicken meat instead of like McDonald's. And they have sweet baby ray's sauce.“

“I would highly recommend Bush's Chicken for your chicken restaurant. If you have a hankering for chicken. Bush's Chicken will be the place to go. I had the 6 piece tenders meal with fries and a drink. They now have Big Red and Coke Zero and for an extra 50¢ you can get a 44 oz.drink to go with your meal combo You can more value for your money. They also offer a senior citizen discount for your meal if you 50 and older, but you have to ask for your senior citizen discount.“
