Awesome: Mama El's. Pimento mac & cheese. Fire & ice pickles. Apple Cheddar pie. Good: Cole slaw. Biscuits. Ok: Classic recipe fried chicken. Want to try: Pie Shake

The Coop in dark meat. Ask for half mashed potato and half mac and cheese to get the best of both worlds.

Awesome spicy chicken sandwich and the whiskey pie cup was delicious too

Get a cup for the soda fountain and combine the black cherry with cream soda. It's the best.

The Kid' Coop is the best buy! It doesn't seem like a lot, but after the first Texas finger, you're halfway stuffed!

Nicest staff and best hot honey chicken sandwich I’ve had in a while! #rickommendedeats

The chicken sandwiches are outrageous. Omg. And so inexpensive!

Hill Country Chicken specializes in biscuits that go great with sausage gravy, or used for breakfast sandwiches.

Sit downstairs super comfortable and quiet + they have games (jenga!!!) and a Pac Man machine

Seriously juicy fried chicken. Really good, and lives up to its hype. Skip the fries though, they really weren't that good. Pies according to my friend were a winner.

Favorite fried chicken near Flatiron. We prefer the Original over the Mama's skinless option. The milkshakes are outstanding as well. Read more

The best thing here may actually be the breakfast tacos!

Note to self: I don’t love the wicked witch. It comes with some sweet sauce and sweet pickles. 🤢
Erin ShepherdOctober 14, 2011
Breakfast is awesome except the cheese grits. If you know and love grits don't get them here
Justin OrdovezaOctober 16, 2014
The pie I think is overrated. The atmosphere on the lower levels is comfortable.

When you're craving a heart attack, try Hill Country. Pretty damned tasty.

Great fried chicken, easy counter service. The downstairs feels like your grandparents basement-in a good way.
Melissa HurwitzJuly 4, 2014
I want to love this place. Great food, location, style, toys for kids, fun for the family. But the basement is really dirty.
Angela WangelaSeptember 18, 2010
If you're not interested in trying both kinds to decide for yourself, get the Classic. It's way tastier than Mama El's even though they seem to use monster chickens for Mama's recipe.

Yummy fried chicken, cole slaw was creamy and crunchy yum, and fresh lemonade! So delicious! Best I've had in NYC

Mac and cheese isn't on the menu but they offer it as a side. It's $0.50 extra. But the cheesy mash potatoes are better. Coleslaw isn't worth getting. They also have Shiner Bock on draft

An 8-piece runs $27 plus a pie game dealing classics like banana cream or the more decadent whiskey buttermilk, straight up or blended into a milkshake. Read more

Big fan of the mash potato side. Decent chicken that will leave you satisfied, but slightly below Blue Ribbon for reference.

The Chickwich is simple and delicious.
Nancy HeOctober 15, 2014
Really good fried chicken. Amazing biscuit. Great pies...especially key lime.

Very good! The chicken is tasty and they give you a looot of fries
Jaycob BurnsOctober 6, 2013
I was all about some fall caramel apple pie until the girl taking my order passionately argued in favor of a sweet potato pie cup. It was a good call
Soo YooJune 7, 2012
Original fried chicken, buttermilk biscuits, cheesy mashed potatoes. This place is a great gourmet fast food option.
TheFoodFreakApril 22, 2011
I like the classic fried chicken. Tenders are really good, I wanna try their sandwiches and the cheesy fried mashed potatoes are like whoa!
DoubleDeuceFebruary 29, 2016
The bathrooms are downstairs. And there is a ton of seating downstairs as well.
Angela WSeptember 21, 2013
Totally impressed with their double cherry pie and chocolate cream pie. Truly tastes as good as my Mom's! (Sorry mom!)
MQNIQUEJune 20, 2016
I should've known this was going to be some garbage when I walked in and the only black folks I saw worked there.... pass on this spot if you can help it!!!
Margaret SuhMarch 4, 2014
Ask about the family portion-- great deal for a group! Oh and get the pickles, too.
David ZhangSeptember 21, 2014
Good fried chicken sandwiches and healthy portions. Beware the long lines around lunch time.

Get the chickwich + pecan pie. I haven't actually had this combo yet but I will next time.

The veggie Texas Hand Roll (fried avocado!) with a side of corn and root beer is a vegetarian's dream!

Head downstairs for quiet, peaceful meal time ✌. You could probably even study here.

Great place for breakfast meetings. If the upstairs is crowded, head downstairs. The 70s rec room vibe is intense, but good.

Lots of cozy seating in the basement. Just watch out, the steps will send you through a time warp straight back to the 1970's. Lite-Brite FTW.

The sides are pretty good, and of course the chicken is great.
What's Good HereAugust 8, 2014
Looking for some good fried chicken? Come here for Mama Els' and down it with some Boylen's soda.

Holy moly! Opening day was crazy! Line out the door. Wait was ~ 40 min. Cool concept and desserts get a 10+. Buttermilk bourbon pie; say no more. My chicken was good but got cold waiting to pay.
MissConnorFebruary 11, 2018
Great chicken!!!! Little expensive tho, but what’s not in NYC?!
nymagSeptember 21, 2010
Try the Texas hand roll at this new spot! It's fried chicken tenders, coleslaw, sesame seeds, crushed almonds, and hot-pepper jelly wrapped in a flour tortilla. Read more
John Michael Di SpiritoJune 13, 2011
Any place with Boylans on draft rocks! No Black Cherry sadly but Root Beer yay! Chicken tender breading is awesome. Very Hush Puppie-ish..
Warren HershkowitzJuly 10, 2011
Wow...this place renewed my belief in fried chucked places. Go here for the original recipe, stay for the Boylans soda on tap
Elizabeth MillerJanuary 29, 2014
Delicious pie! Worth the wait. (and you WILL wait, while the counter staff stands around. )
River RoseMay 17, 2012
Whatever you get, make sure you get a Boylan soda and cheesy mashed potatoes with it. You won't regret it.
