This place rocks! We are in town for a graduation. We asked my Niece where do you want to eat after graduation. She said Babes. We saw the menu and were kind of like ok what kind of a chicken place is this. It was her choice so we went. Our waiter(forgot his name) was cool and was very attentive to us. First sign of a good waiter/server is our cups were never empty. Its been a while that my cup has never been empty. For the food it rocked. Your biscuits are addictive. I dont know what you put in them but we ate alot of them. The dressing on the salad was not over powering. Now for the chicken. We had tenders, fired, smoked and even some chicken fried steak. It was all juicy and tender. What had us surprised was there was no oil on the plate when it was served. The breading on all the chicken stayed crunchy. What ever you do to the chicken keep doing it. The corn, green beans and the mashed potatoes were on point. They are their own food group. Im not a green bean person. I had 2 servings. The gravy just made everything taste better. The deserts tasted like they came from grandmas kitchen. Whats the chances you would open a location in Las Vegas Nevada. Its going to get expensive to drive here every time we what fried chicken. Keep doing what you're doing. It works. read more

THIS IS A HUGE RAVE TO BABE'S CHICKEN HOUSE IN GRANBURY! On Sunday, March 29, my wife and I went to Babe's Chicken House in Granbury. We were met immediately and seated promptly. Our server was a young lady named Lauren. More on Lauren shortly. This was not our first trip to Babe's Chicken House. But it had been a while, definitely too long, since we were here when we came years ago, we would usually order a chicken each. Now we are in our golden years and we can't eat that much, so we split one. But it was just as delicious as it has been each previous time! The Chicken was fried too absolutely perfection! The golden brown skin was seasoned perfectly and was very crunchy, just the way we like it. And the meat was hot and fork tender, Oh, I still prefer to use My fingers. The sides of green beans, corn, and mashed potatoes and gravy were off the hook! I'm not sure how they cook that corn, but they can come over to my house and cook it anytime! We both drank a sweet tea with lemon, very, very cold and lots of ice! About Lauren: Lauren is a local young lady who has a constant smile on her face. I never saw her not smiling while we were here. I watched her as she engaged in conversation with many people, both employees and customers, and she was an extremely pleasant young woman. But to my wife and I, she was an absolute, unfettered joy! She kept our tea glasses filled, and Make sure that we had plenty of potatoes and gravy, corn, and green beans. She did all of this as well as tending to her other customers I think that she is one of those young ladies who is so personable that she has the gift of making everyone feel as though they are the most important customer to her. I know that is the way that we felt. My wife had ordered some vegetables to go, And had mentioned this to Lauren when we ordered our chicken. We were nearly finished with a meal when Lauren arrived at the perfect time with the "to go order." She remembered when many such servers in the past at other venues Have forgotten. I need to address one other thing that I frequently hear people complain about. Yes, babes does serve instant potatoes. When you feed as many people in a day and in a week or over a holiday weekend, as they do, something has got to give. And by the way, those instant potatoes are absolutely delicious! I don't know what they do to them, but they are incredible! So if that's your own gripe, find something else to gripe about and instead insert some positivity into your review! This was the most pleasant dining experience that I've had in years and it was because the food was good and Lauren's service to my wife and I was even better! The only suggestion would be that Lauren gets paid more! She's clearly not being paid enough! As for Babe's Chicken dinner house, we will be back! Thank you all so much! And you take good care of our Lauren, because we want her the next time we come! All of y'all who read this review and then go to babes, be sure that you ASK FOR LAUREN! SHE'S A ROCKSTAR! read more

Service was outstanding. The food tasted great. We had smoked chicken, fried chicken, and fried chicken strips. We loved the side dishes, especially the corn and mashed potatoes. Biscuits and honey tasted great too. The music was a little too loud but we still enjoyed the ambiance. read more

Delicious.Every. Time. Great service! Delicious biscuits! ( love the sorghum)! Wonderful food! The best of the AYCE venues... because I don't have to get up over and over again to fill up my plate! Until next time, Babes! read more

Food is amazing; catfish or chicken both always cooked to perfection! Highly recommend! read more

All good things to report! While visiting a winery in the area, a staff member suggested we try Babe's as they are known for really good chicken. We headed there and had a great time. Our server was Jackson, such a sweet and funny young man. He anticipated all of our needs, gave honest opinions on the menu and was a delight. Food review: Fried catfish 10/10 well seasoned and fried to perfection Smoked chicken 6/10 bland but juicy Corn 7/10 solid, I'm not a fan of creamed corn so... Mashed potatoes 8.5/10 fresh and delicious Green beans 7/10 decent, cooked well Service 12/10 From the door to the table to the cashier, excellent! Bonus: while we were there, two of the servers grabbed a microphone and sang two beautiful songs. They literally sounded like professional musicians, wow! read more

Service was just ok. Obviously we ordered chicken. Bland but fried nicely. We also got smoked chicken. That had great flavor. Sides were corn and green beans with mashed potatoes and white tasteless gravy. Building looks old and cluttered. Averages $20 per person. Expensive for a very basic meal. read more

The best family restaurant you will ever find. We love this place. Food is always delicious, fresh, and fast. The service is friendly. The sides are sooo good. If you want a taste of southern hospitality with your food make your way here read more

Great fun place to eat. Service was great. And good southern food. Loved the concept of family style. I had fried chicken which was amazing. Husband had fried fish. Would go again for sure! read more

Good comfort food. The chicken is hot and fresh. It has a good taste with a hint of pepper. The mashed potatoes are extremely good. I also got a chance to try the fish and I thought it could have been seasoned a little more. The atm is nice and one of the employees even broke out in song. Her rendition of LeAnn Rimes's "Blue" was really good. This is an enjoyable place to eat with friendly staff. The manager was also very kind and checked on us a couple of times. read more

Babe's Chicken Dinner House - Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and roll. - Comfort Food Near Me - Sanger, Texas

One of our faves when visiting family in TX. In fact the sides are so good we ordered the mashed potatoes and corn to go for our family Thanksgiving dinner. Not sure what the salad dressing is exactly but it is almost addictive. Service is always good and the atmosphere is fun and family friendly. read more

Wonderful food!!!! Great service. We are from out of state but try to go there every time we are close. It never disappoints

STOP! Everything a true southern girl needs. Biscuits with honey and cane sugar syrup, sweet tea, chicken fried steak, creamy mash potatoes, green beans, and corn....oh wait...dessert...chocolate pie and banana pudding...all while listening to the Oak Ridge Boys - Elvira, a live serenade to Patty Cline's Blue and a little Elvis. Our Texas backroad adventure found us in Sanger and oh what a treat finding Babe's. Here's how it works. You order your meat, fried chicken (an entire 1/2 of a chicken), chicken tenders, chicken fried steak, fried catfish or smoked chicken and then the sides are all served family style and you get them all! As the waitress described the meat..."nothing here is small. The chicken fried steak is the size of my face." It truly was. Homestyle cooking at its finest in a cool atmosphere and great service. Make this trip and enjoy the food coma afterwards! read more

My husband has been craving fried since we moved to Texas. We found this place in our travels. They were very busy on a Saturday night with lots of families. There was a waitress walking around singing Elvis and Johnny Cash songs. She had a lovely voice. Our waiter explained there were 5 meat choices and they all came with the same sides family style. We both chose the fried chicken dinner. First they brought out biscuits and a "salad". The biscuits were just like my grandmother's. The salad was a bowl of iceberg lettuce with too much dressing. The chicken was fabulous crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, just what we wanted. We each had a breast, thigh, drumstick and a wing. The corn was overcooked and mushy and the green beans were overcooked and floating in bacon grease. Despite this I would come back for the chicken and biscuits and the fun atmosphere and great service. read more

This place was delicious! I came with my aunt and it was amazing. We ordered one serving of fried chicken and split that and still had leftover. Sides are family style and unlimited. I would definitely recommend bringing a crowd versus two people. There was so much food it was hard to finish. You can bring home the chicken but not the sides. The biscuits are incredible, and the mashed potatoes were my favorite side. But the star of the show is the banana pudding. Absolutely delicious and a must try. read more

Babe's Chicken Dinner House - Comfort Food Near Me - Sanger, Texas

Why oh why are these only found in and around the Dallas area? I'm from Houston and can guarantee we have nothing even comparable in our part of TX. My son and I were driving through Sanger headed back home, when we took a detour for dinner at Babe's. The food is fantastic...all of it! The service was excellent. Then to top it off, it reminded me of a restaurant I went to in NYC with singing waitstaff. We enjoyed listening to one of the young ladies sing a beautiful song! read more

I drove an hour to get there. It wasn't worth the drive. The ambiance is great just like the other Babe's Chicken Dinner Restaurants. That is where the similarities with the other "Babe's" ends. The fried chicken was tough & too salty, the veggie's were cooked to death. The biscuits were not like any I've had before. If you can't drink all of your $3.00 drink, NO TOGO cups. Then NO Senior Prices, either. They do appreciate Veterans with a discount though. I doubt I'll return to this Babe's, but I may try another, even though it's further to drive. read more

All great things must come to an end! We arrived last night to sit by a couple that was complaining that their food wasn't hot enough. We thought they were just one of those that liked to complain. When we got our biscuits, They would not melt the butter that was on the table. The rest of the sides was just barely warm. The star of the show, the fried chicken was clearly "heat lamp" chicken. We should have just got up and walked out. Hate to do that with big parties. RIP Babes chicken. Probably new management or owners !! read more

I've heard about this restaurant for years and wondered if it would stand up to the hype. Well it did! We ordered the chicken strip meal. The strips were small but oh so delicious. The sides were equally as good. Creamy mashed potatoes and the best gravy I think I have ever eaten. The green beans and corn were seasoned perfectly. We live in Oklahoma but will be stopping in as often as we can. read more

BEST FRIED CHICKEN!!! I cannot speak highly enough of the quality and taste of the chicken!! Flavorful, moist, crunchy skin... all the things you want in perfect fried chicken. The chicken fried steak was also delicious. The sides were great as well. Great atmosphere and wonderful service. We stopped while passing through Sanger and now this will be a regular stop for us. No menus, as they offer chicken, tenders, fried steak and catfish.... And they do those things well!! Put this place on your list, it's a must!! read more

The singing waitresses had beautiful voices, our server Sophia was friendly, and the restaurant was fun and quirky! The men in my family said chicken was good but the breading was too fried. 3/5 They don't have a menu or online prices so here was the breakdown of our meals: My two sons had the chicken tenders, $18.99 each, and my husband ordered the chicken fried steak $18.99. It said it came with unlimited veggie sides. My "vegetable plate" $10.99. (Wasn't different vegetables than what was brought to the tables for everyone to share.) The salad is just iceberg lettuce with a sweet vinegar oil dressing. Nothing special. I don't eat meat so I had a biscuit with sorghum (yummy),corn, and mashed potatoes and gravy (very good) and green beans. Our family ate regular sized portions since gorging isn't our thing, :) and we had a couple hours drive home. Our leftovers went home with the Texas folks in our group. Some fellow yelpers said throwing away sides instead of letting customers take them is pretty wasteful, but I would think the packaging for all the sides would be just as wasteful. It was a fun experience and would repeat again with our Texas family, but can understand how some people are annoyed by the wastefulness of the food and not knowing what you're paying for. read more

The food and portions are always great, the vibe is always kick back and fun. The decors are spot on when we have people from out of town and the reason for the 4 star is no longer byob which I can deal with but the byor has always bugged. And by byor I mean bring your own ranch, how can we in a 1st world nation not offer the most common side? The service staff is always top notch and we are always treated well. But man no ranch in 2025... let's be better. read more

Fried Chicken the way it's supposed to be. The service is first class and the country decor fits the menu. The family serving style is unique and caused more family engagement without cell phone interrupting. Flavors =YUM read more

Lorena, our waitress, was great! We went when it wasn't busy so she could handle the tables she was waiting on. We told her that my husband and I were celebrating our birthdays. We made fools of ourselves by doing the chicken dance WITH props...and yet, the business did NOTHiNG to honor our bdays! No complimentary beverages OR desserts! What a joke! Then, after we've ordered meals at a pittance of their cost, we were made to put our doggy bags in some kind of rogue plastic bags!!!! What a joke, part 2!!!!!!! If I EVER go here again, I will remember to bring my own Tupperware and ask them to refill All of my sides before I am done eating. Seriously, $20.00 for three catfish fillets????and I can't get a doggy bag???? Then, even tho it wasn't full...we were sat at a two person table that was in the direct path of everyone's bathroom visit! I lost track of the number of times a patron bumped me on their way to the commode! Worse birthdaysssssssssss, EVER! read more

Y'all! This place was so fun for a big group! The family style meal was perfect for a group of 6 adults and 5 kids! We tried all of the meats except the smoked chicken which we should have tried! We were not disappointed by any of it. The catfish had a bit of spice to it but was still good! The fried chicken had a delicious smoky flavor and even had bacon in the breading! The chicken fried steak was good and the chicken tenders were perfect for the kids (the big kids too!) The sides were all yummy compliments to the main dish. The salad and biscuits were a great start to the meal. The cane sugar cream soda was the most yummy cream soda that I have had. Can wait to come again when we're visiting family here in TX! read more

The worst Babe's I've been to. The tables are WAY too close to each other, the guy sitting behind me kept stretching and bumping into me... it has to be a fire hazard. The food was not very good, the chicken tenders were mushy and not crisp at all and made me feel sick afterwards. It is also extremely dark and overwhelming inside. read more

If you come here, get their fried chicken! I've been to several other Babe's location around the DFW area and I personally like their fried chicken the best. They have family styled meals where you share side dishes like green beans, corn, mashed potatoes and gravy etc. Their corn is ok, I don't personally like their green beans. Service has always been good the times we have been here. We have only been here in COVID times, all servers wore mask the whole time. Service was good and fast. They have a lot of other dishes like CFS, smoked chicken, fried fish etc. Their fried chicken is better than any other restaurant I've been to so I usually stick to that when I come here. They have a few tables outside the restaurant if you prefer to sit outside. They have quite a few tables inside the restaurant. read more

Excellent! Babe's in Sanger, is the third different location I've eaten at. The common things you will find with all locations is friendly staff and crazy good food ! When you are seated, and you see honey and sorghum syrup on the table, that's a clue. My waitress met me there with a hot biscuit and fresh green salad. I ordered the chicken fingers, which comes with corn, green beans and mashed potatoes with cream gravy. Everything was great, but the green beans and corn are just a notch above ! The sides are "pitch till you win". They will continue bringing them until you are beyond full. Did I mention the classic country music? Great food and music, what else do you need ?? Come hungry, don't rush, relax and enjoy ! If you are ever in Sanger, Texas go give Babe's a try. Go get Full read more

Starting off the staff was polite unfortunately our group was split up between tables. We received salads and biscuits to start which both were tasty the biscuits were great! I ordered the chicken tenders and I thought they were great. However, we also ordered chicken fried steak and catfish which was not that great unfortunately. The sides provided were okay (not a fan of cream style corn) except the mashed potatoes which I felt were terrible and gummy/pasty as if it was instant potatoes definitely could not eat them. Plus side they do offer military discount and do not charge a fee for large groups read more

We were excited to try this location as we have enjoyed the original. This place was so snug with tables, people hit chairs etc when they walked by our table. The tables weren't big enough for all the food and it was hard to spread out at all. It was also SO LOUD we couldn't have normal conversation. The food was good, but the location could use some work on giving the customers a better experience by giving some room to enjoy without being on top of each other, and even turning down the music so even if they are close, they can at least hear each other... read more
