Herbie Butcher's Fried Chicken

It was my first time getting Herbie’s last night and it was amazing! I was the only vegetarian of my party of 4, but we all enjoyed it. In fact, it was their idea to get Herbie’s and it didn’t disappoint 3 meat-every-meal peeps! Each of the sauces was wonderful, and the consensus was that the butcher sauce was best, hands down. We got the mac and cheese (this was an additional wait of 20 minutes - wonderful communication about this - totally worth the wait) and the slaw and they were fantastic. I’ve never had real fried chicken, but just FYI the Herbie’s chicken is super filling. The staff was fantastic and fast, and I’m glad there were so many people frequenting it last night. I’m excited for the biscuits next time and tots. Thanks Herbie’s folks!

The folks at Herbies really have created something wonderful here. A simple menu of buckets of fried chicken and sides that feels like a chicken joint.

And the food? Excellent across the board. They have nailed the fried chicken, offer excellent biscuits, all served through a service window in a little buckets. It’s perfect.

These guys clearly have worked a Kong time getting this right and far exceeded my expectations.

Highly Recommended

The chicken and the sauces (sampled all of them) are tasty though the ranch tasted overly dilly like a tarter sauce. The biscuit and mac & cheez textures are great though the flavors are pretty plain. Tater tots were well seasoned without being over seasoned. And the strawberry milk shake with shortcake pieces is decent (the straws are way too small for milkshakes). Overall it was a cool experience and I enjoyed it. Good pricing for the portion sizes.

Super delicious food! There were a lot of people standing out on the sidewalk waiting for their food, but thankfully the wait for food wasn’t long considering the line (15-20 minutes). The service was kind, and the food was DELICIOUS!

I wish the “meat” part of the chicken was a little less dense and more juicy, but WOW the breading. I haven’t eaten fried chicken in 10 over years, and the flavor and look of the breading was just spot on to how I remembered it being. The mac and cheese was also good, could’ve done with more sauce. And the slaw is probably the best I’ve every had. It’s more savory than slaws typically are. Can’t wait to go again!

This is not the best but certainly among the best fried chicken I've had and it isn't even real chicken. The sauces are great, but order extra. The coleslaw was amazing, it was not overly sweet, it was wonderfully savory and tangy. The macaroni could use some work, but was at least passable. Didn't get to try the biscuits because they were out. I do wish there were more side options like mashed sweet potatoes, collard greens, something pickled, but I do appreciate a small menu if it means the food is consistent.
