Randomguy Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted March 6, 2019 Just now, JerrySTL said: Try going on Sunday when the crowds are smaller. No crowds right now. I only had the base crunchy sandwich, no extras. I added mayonnaise because it needed it. Not bad, but not gushworthy upon a sample of one. It is hard to really critique a place like this, I know that charm often presents itself over time. What should have I gotten? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for fast food chicken it’s pretty good but nothing to gush over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrapr ★ Posted March 6, 2019 Share #14 Posted March 6, 2019 Contractor had a safety meeting on site last week. Big wigs in town. Mandatory trade attendance. They catered in Chick fil A. I'm with RG. Ok at best. Probably better hot off the grease pit. Ours was at least an hour & a half old They shoulda just had the gas company portable BBQ trailer stop in. That increases attendance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted March 6, 2019 Share #15 Posted March 6, 2019 I like their skinless, batterless chicken bits. Pretty rad. I also like their coffee drink -- though I don't have them any more because they're fattening as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was ok. It's a "compared to..." thing for me. I like the waffle fries. Also, Chick-fil-a is convenient and friendly. Pretty good milk shakes too. Again, this a "compared to" sort of thing where it is McDonalds or BK or similar, since it is a fast food joint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should have I gotten? See, here's the deal. If you compare it to a sit down eatin' place that does fried chicken.... well, it's not THAT great. But if you compare it to Wendy's, McDonalds, etc. it's amazing. I think that it's one of the best fast food places going. Unless you consider Qdoba fast food. They are good as well. 11 hours ago, Prophet Zacharia said: They’ve never tried to save me, but they are so freaking polite it’s unnerving.

MickinMD ★ Posted March 6, 2019 Share #21 Posted March 6, 2019 There's nothing there that draws me to Chick-Fil-A more than other fast-food places, but: I like their chicken sandwiches better than other major fast food chains. I also like their buttermilk ranch dipping sauce with their fries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted March 7, 2019 Share #37 Posted March 7, 2019 I'm surprised the one near me doesn't serve up more T-Bones. It is the out corner building of the Costco parking lot. Both of Chick-Fil-A entrances are at the Costco entrances turning off 6 lane divided highway, and the Chic-Fit-A entrance is blind to the highway traffic. Turn into Costco at speed and immediately slam on your brakes as cars are either turning into Chick-Fil-A or worse, line backed out the parking lot and blocking that portion of the Costco entrance lane. GRRRRR. Then it becomes an issue...Costco Food Court vs Chick-Fil-A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 200 from what I see, but could be different out in the vast West! We have a Chick-fil-a food truck but it doesn't sell fries ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
