Reviews for Fry the Coop in Chicago, IL
Great Nashville HOT chicken! I started going to the Elmhurst location when they opened. Now FryTheCoop has a few more... locations. Always great size chicken (I always get the tenders). You won't be disappointed! Read more
Love it! The heat levels are actually where they should be unlike most places in the space I think. Medium is actually medium,... not mild etc. Read more
The sandwich is fine. The spicy one doesn?t come with much on it. Just the sauce. The fries are fine. Order took a while to... come out. Fries were cold. Asked for fresh fries. Took forever to come out. Read more
Sooooo, I stumbled across Fry The Coop from word of mouth through Instagram. I was very impressed honestly. The entrance was... photogenically appealing. When you enter the restaurant you?ll have to gaze over the plethora of items on the menu. Being anout of towner, I?m very bummed I can not taste more of their food over time. However, this just means I need to venture back toChicago! My donut chicken sandwich was good! The sweetness from the donut swirled with the HOTNESS from the chicken accompaniedwith that pickle drizzle a tad bit of honey mustard ? lip smacking experience. Guaranteed!! The bar was fully stocked. Thestaff was helpful with the many questions I had. The music had an R&B vibe. NO RESERVATION required. I would highly recommendfor first date. Read more
NEW MENU ITEM @frythecoop West Town, Chicago IL after 4 years of not changing their menu ???????? Got a chance to try this bomb... spot. I'm always down for awesome fried chicken sandwiches! The place was so nice with nice leather chairs, classic wooden bars,and wide booths You order up, choose your spiciness ????and pick them up at the counter. @joefontanachicago teamed up withlocal brewery @pipeworksbrewing to create their FIRST beer "Chicken Vs. Unicorn," ????plus have added Messy Fries to theirmenu! ???? The fries are surprisingly tasty, with all the seasoning, pickles and coleslaw that you'd have on their Nashvillefried chicken sandwich ON IT . So you get the best of both worlds in a nice shareable setting - portion is huge, it's as big asmy face! The crispiest fries were the best . Wish they double fried the whole thing, would be even better! The beer was lightand tasty, a pale ale that is perfect for a Sunday afternoon pick me up. Nice and malty, not too hoppy. Quite crisp with not alot of citrus notes We also ordered their two popular fried chicken sandwiches that were BOMB DOT COM. Ordered one for mediumspicy and one for HOT ????????. ???? Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich with their homemade spice mix, coleslaw, pickles. Greatbalance of vinegary, spicy, flavorful, soft brioche bun + crispy goodness. It comes with their homemade special Coop sauce. Ithink if you like mayo/garlic aioli type sauces, you'd like this one! ????I got the Spicy Butter Fried Chicken Sandwich since Iwanted something a bit more straightforward to try the taste of their chicken. It includes fried chicken, spicy honey butter,and their brioche bun. It was amazing, likely my top 1 or 2 fried chicken sandwich spots in Chicago sofar. #sponsored @midwestmunching on instagram!

Wasn?t a huge fan. I got three tenders with Coop sauce & some seasoned fries. The chicken was decent, but the fries looked like... they?d been downright annihilated in the fryer. They were rock solid, and barely tasted like fries due to having been overcooked(and even despite this: they were also cold.) Sadly I?m not from the area (just visiting from out of state) so there won?t be achance to have another go at it and see if it was a fluke. But to be honest, if I?m ever in Chicago again, I?ll probably try adifferent chicken joint. Read more
The Nashville fried chicken sandwich is my favorite, medium spice. And you to try a cocktail or the locally source beer... selection. My top pick was the Backyard Rummy. Sooo delicious! You seriously can?t go wrong. Read more
Great Nashville chicken. Crispy goodness with double cooked fries. Friendly staff and quirky cool decor and fun atmosphere.
