Fry The Coop - Elmhurst

The host suggested the Spicy Butter Fried Chicken Sandwich with seasoned fries, and it exceeded my expectations. It's one of the best versions of a Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich I've ever tried! If you enjoy a little kick, go for the hot flavor—it has just the right amount of heat. I will definitely be returning!

My wife and I decided to check out Fry the Coop, especially since they're opening a new location near our home on 75th Street in Darien. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality and taste of the food. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich at medium heat, along with seasoned fries and a drink, while my wife opted for the two-piece mild chicken tenders and cheese fries. We also shared a beer from a local brewery. I found the medium heat to be good, but I think I could handle even hotter. I really appreciated that all the flavors come from a dry rub rather than a sauce. The prices were reasonable; my meal, including the sandwich ($12), fries, and drink, came to about $16. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back!

Meaty piece of Chicken that actually has some overflow off the Brioche Bun. The toppings are paired and rationed perfectly on the sandwich, so that you get every bit of taste of your chicken.

4.6 overall from me this place is very good. The Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich was delicious I got it Medium Hot w/ a side of seasoned fries that were crispy and delicious. I would definitely recommend this place!

I recently had my first experience at a FtC, and it was a pleasant one. On my way home from Oakbrook Center Mall, I decided to try something different and found this place while browsing on Google Maps. It’s a nice departure from the popular boneless chicken chains like Chick-fil-A, PDQ, and Cane's, offering a unique Nashville-style twist with a focus on spice. The food quality is great and the prices are reasonable. The customer service was refreshingly down-to-earth and the venue was clean and well-sanitized. However, since the nearest location is over 25 miles from my home in Beach Park, I'm not sure how often I'll be able to dine in.
