Harold's Chicken Shack

The Original - Harold's Chicken Shack

For me anyhow. Beatific location Fort Mason by the water.

Parking situation can be tricky but conquered with patience and agility.

Different varieties each time.

Tricky on rainy days with the ground and wind.

Recommend on a summer evening!

Harold's Chicken has been one of Chicago's number 1 chicken facilities for many years. With several locations the one that I really like this it's the one on the 87th Street. The chicken is always fresh to order and the wait staff a pretty nice people.

The best chicken wings in the chi. Came from Texas to get me some. Still taste the same. Great!

Best, chicken, EVER! I've been to several different locations of Harold's across the city and this one is by far the best one! They are fast and friendly. The chicken was so hot, crispy and juicy. The fries weren't super great, but I was only concerned with my chicken quality because that was the star of the meal. The cashier was super helpful and knowledgeable about pricing and products. She was also super patient with me and my multiple orders. Whenever I am in town and craving Harold's again, I will drive the 20 minutes to this location instead of the one that's across the street from my mom's house.

Ignore the arguing employees and the arguing customers. Just for a minute. Whenever I'm home in Chicago this is my first choice Harold's to go to. It's a surprisingly efficient location and the food here is always made exactly how I ask! Patience wins here so don't come in a rush and don't come with a bad attitude. Come for the Chicken. Top Notch.
