They’ve been voted as having the best fried chicken in the state and we tend to agree. The menu is small, but who really needs much more when there’s fried chicken!

The chicken dinner meal is around $14 and large enough for two people to split. It comes with a whole fried chicken, bread, pickles, and onions. Plus, you can add on some delicious fried okra for an additional $7.
