Reviews for The Chicken Place in Marlin, TX
Food was good, service okay. Ran out coleslaw and it wasn't that late in the day.
Used to look forward to stopping by every couple months or so. Food was very good. But the food purchased today left us... disappointed. Prices went up, chicken tender portion went down, and it seems like they changed suppliers or recipes for theirchicken and rolls. I realize businesses must adjust to survive the crazy inflation but the difference in quality was huge.Sadly, we don't plan to return or continue recommending The Chicken Place to others. Read more
Food was great and hot! I love the young people here! They're so awesome and respectful, "Yes Sir!" "Have a Blessed day!" Nor... something you hear in the drive-thru! Read more
Long wait in drive thur no plasticware to eat Mac n cheese with. Chicken dry like it been sitting for to long. Whoever own this... place need to really take a long look at there employees. No smiles just had u your food with no condiments as well. Read more
Meh. The chicken was fine. Good, even. But it's fried chicken. I've had better, I've had worse. Was still overpriced for what it... is. They were out of half the stuff on the board and half the stuff they did have, wasn't advertised. The sort of place that ifyou're a local and know what to order (and when to order it), you probably love. But if you're coming in from out of town,reading these reviews seeking local flavor for a small town meal, maybe give this place a skip. The staff isn't friendly orparticularly contientious, and cleanliness seems to be a real struggle for them. It's ok chicken but just about anyplace youstop in central Texas is going to be just as good. The Sunday roast beef was just pathetic and sad -- a tiny portion that wasdry and gravy-less -- I'd be embarassed to serve it at a California nursing home let alone a small town roadside diner in Texas.The mac and cheese is too salty; green beans were a watery soup; the rolls were quite good. The Blue Bell ice cream has beensitting there for months collecting ice crystals. We watched a customer cough all over the napin and plasticware dispensers, andthe whole place just feels kinda cruddy and unclean generally. Oh well. Was worth the try but safe to say, I won't be back. Read more
Authentic fried chicken that's hard to beat.
Sunday Fried Chicken???? after church! Woohoo! ????Chicken was crispy & tasty. Hubby had the 3 piece meal (breast, leg, thigh,... mashed potatoes, country gravy, fries & a roll) and I had the 2 piece meal (thigh and wing, mashed potatoes, country gravy, cornon the cob & a roll). Both meals were good. Chicken was crispy and moist. The thighs in both meals were a little greasy than ourtaste but the other pieces were great. I would have preferred a little more seasoning in the breading. Corn on the cob wasjuicy, no additional butter was needed and I got the last one available, so obviously an item in demand. Staff was friendly, andthe inside was clean, including the ladies restroom ????.There is a small banquet hall in the back for large meeting parties (upto 50?) and they also offer catering. Ice cream ????and cobbler are also available for dessert. I will stop by again when I amcoming through town on business, plenty of room for parking, including large trucks on the side of the restaurant. Good food andgood people here.???? I hope this has helped you, if so please give me a ????thumbs up & also check out my photos. Safe travels, God bless you and God bless our America! Read more
I stopped by today 11/16/22. Ordered what I thought was fresh fish, mac and cheese, fries, and a peach cobbler. I watched the... guy in the back pull the fish out of a bag in the freezer and throw it in the cooker. The fish had a horrible taste and noflavor at all. The mac and cheese was absolutely horrible. The fries were cold and the rolls were terrible. The gravy wasclumpy and nasty. After all of that I hoped that maybe the peach cobbler would save the day. Boy was that the opposite of what Ihoped. Tasted like cardboard and had no flavor either. Even the fountain drinks had a weird flavor. Definitely disappointed andwill not be back. The staff is friendly though Read more
