Parking is standard an service left no room for complaints and for the record, I had none with either! Now, interesting point is the different / breading/ batters/ coatings. I think the bone in chicken and sandwich is standard flour, baking powder, corn starch type but the strips and onion ring are wet battered, almost tempura like. They're both great, just thought it was interesting. Also, i want to try the fish and I don't even like fish particularly, but that fry method has me intrigued. That colossal sandwich is bigger than Trumps hair piece and seasoned downn! read more

"Where's the Beef" or in this case chicken? After four greet delivery experiences, today I ordered a spicey chicken sandwich and had to go spelunking. Buried beneath copious amounts of shredded lettuce and jalapeños, smothered in sauce between the 2 halves of really thick bread, I finally found a pitifully small, thin piece of overcooked chicken. After years of ordering from a well known national chain, I switched to Berwyn because their sandwiches started arriving overflowing with shredded lettuce and little. This is not the way to handle increased food costs unless you want decreased customer numbers. I'll be looking for yet another restaurant option as I search for meat. read more

Went back since the first time was a flop. Well chicken sandwich was salty, too much seasoning. Chose tater tots because they serve brown fries not yellow. I said why do you cook the chicken so crispy she said it's only cooked for 4 min if any less is uncooked. What about the fries I don't like brown fries, she said we serve brown fries not yellow. Foxcito gave this place a good review I think because of the size of the Chicken Sandwich. I won't patronize again. The best part lots of tater tots read more

I tried this place because of the reels on Insta. First of all service was a bit off, given it was my first time here I was asking questions and the woman seemed a little frustrated with me. The food was ok. My shrimp were DEEP DEEP fried. Not sure if this is the way they usually serve shrimp or this is a one off. Given they were burnt, they tasted like rubber.Best part of the meal were the tater tots. Since we went in there early the place was not as busy so that was good. See pictures. read more

ok so the fish and chips is overly fire, BUT 1 pc of fish for $25 is rather insane. The sauces were trash and the mild sauce was "weird" too, It's like they tried to make it themselves. Absolutely not. service was what it was. the ambiance feels like an old drive in hotdog stand. would I go back? Yes, because I know they can do better. read more

Don't come here hungry, cause you will have to wait probably close to 30 mins before your order is ready. Better call ahead/order ahead. There's counter inside where you can eat. We went on winter time, I am not sure if they have tables outside when the weather is warmer. Ok, I can say... it's worth the wait. The chicken sandwich is huge (can be shared), it is served with tater totes or fries. It is pricey, yes. But it's huge... so! The fried chicken (dark/thighs) is cooked very well and tasty. It comes with one side, I opt for mac n cheese which tastes really good also. Park on street or at the back. Parking will be challenging on a busy hour or day. read more

This is a solid spot - I've only had take out/catering. The chicken is fresh and delicious - though with catering, it can be a smidge greasy at times (I think if fresh this wouldn't be noticeable). Price-wise, this is reasonable and plenty of options for ordering. Friendly staff! All in all a good spot. Not the absolute best chicken but very solid and tasty for what it is. read more

Berwyn Chicken is a great spot for comfort food that travels well. Delivery is always quick and reliable, even from about fifteen minutes away. The portions are generous and the sandwiches are huge. The Chicken Pierre is outstanding and easily my favorite item on the menu. I am not a big fan of the gravy they use for the mashed potatoes, but it is still fine if that style is your thing. The mac and cheese is just okay, but the onion rings are really good and perfectly crispy. read more

Been wanting to try this place for a HOT minute and it was worth the wait. Chicken sandwiches are so big they come in a cake box! Berwyn Hot sandwich has amazing seasoning on it but surprisingly no heat. ‍ Oak Park Cool sandwich was a great classic chicken sandwich. Having a mix of tots & fries was dope too. Plus, that punk sauce was fire! My friend said the fish & chips were just as good as when he had it back in Scotland and London. Definitely gotta go back but gotta find the right time since it took like 40 minutes to get our food. I like that it had a little parking lot, but the place is small with some window seats so I might not be able to bring my kid. read more

I visited here based upon all the reviews recommending this place. I ordered the Hot chicken sandwich and a 3 wing dinner. I got tots with one order and fries with another. I'm concerned when entering the place: nobody there on a Wed at 3pm. The 3 wings dinner was very good. Fried and seasoned just right. Fries were delicious. Nice, soft, pillowy great tasting roll to accompany eveything.I would get this again, if I was in the area. The HOT chicken sandwich. It was huge. It was juicy. It wasn't HOT. It wasn't seasoned. Very bland. Too much salt on my tots. I couldn't finished those. The slaw had a pineapple after taste that I didn't enjoy. Overall, a waste of $32 that I won't repeat EVER. read more

Solid place. Fresh fried food. The coleslaw is very tasty. Creamy but not heavy. Their butterfly shrimp was good also. The portion is large and a combo meal could easily feed 2. Their chicken wings are not with seasoning or with sauces on them. They are naked. If that's what you are looking for. They make their own sauce - I'd recommend their Mickey Sauce. Tang & sweet read more

The chicken is amazing. Highly recommend the onion rings as well. Only complaints were that the tater tots were under cooked and mashed together in a ball and if you order online, don't trust the ready by time. It took 20 minutes longer than expected read more

Berwyn Chicken - Awesome sandwich. Gross tots - Chicken Wings Near Me - Berwyn, Illinois

I don't know if this is the best chicken sandwich on earth, but it certainly is the best one I have ever had. The Berwyn hot has a nice spice to it without a lot of heat. I can handle an absurd amount of heat, so this was pretty mild but with excellent flavor. It's completely unnatural and I wouldn't be surprised if years down the road we find out these were eagle breasts. Friendly service as always we were customers when they were Big Guys, but this is the first time we have been out since the change . It's tiny inside though so be prepared to eat in your car or take it home during peak hours . read more

This place is AMAZING. I had 2 of the chicken box combos and it was more than enough food. The fact that it already comes with coleslaw and bread along with a sauce and another side was more than enough and all for less than $25. The service did take quite a long time but the wait was worth it, I'd say call 20-25 minutes in advance. Will come again one of the best chicken thighs and mac and cheese I've ever had. The mikes sauce was sweet and paired nice with the biscuit. read more

I really wanted to like this place and was so excited to try it with my fiancé after seeing it all over social media. I'm all about my personal honest reviews so here it goes. We walked into the place and it was crowded on a Saturday afternoon. The employee was kind and took our order. I got the "Oak Park" and my fiancé got the hot chicken sandwich. They both came in lined bakery boxes that had our chicken sandwiches, packed pickles, slaw, sauce and we opted for the tater tots. After we got our food we picked a nice park to eat it at. Visibly the chicken cutlet was huge and it exceeded the bun in size. It was like a pounded chicken cutlet that was battered and fried. We did not enjoy the sandwich at all and thought it was too salty and the coating didn't stick onto the chicken. The tater tots were hard fried and extremely hard and crunchy. We like crunchy tots but they over fried these to the point where it wasn't enjoyable at all. I didn't want to leave this kind of review because I really was hyped about this place but unfortunately to each their own and at least it was an experience we got to have. read more

Berwyn Chicken - Oak Park Cool Sandwich - Chicken Wings Near Me - Berwyn, Illinois

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly When this place gets it right, it really gets it right. The chicken comes out fresh, hot, and cooked properly and the fries and tots have excellent seasoning. The staff at the counter has been consistently friendly, and the small "neighborhood chicken joint" feel makes it an easy spot to stop by. On its best day, the food here can earn a repeat visit. Consistency is the core issue. Wings are often small and flavorless, the size of the chicken sandwich doesn't live up to the internet hype, and the fries and tots swing from great to stale or oversalted. Portion size doesn't offset the quality gaps. Prices run high for results that vary this widely. Operationally, order times don't match what customers are told, even during slow periods. Missing items, long waits, and uneven food quality indicate a lack of standardization and follow-through. Consistency is the issue here, and that comes from management and training. After several years in business, the problems mentioned above shouldn't remain the norm. Relying on social media hype rather than consistent execution doesn't solve the underlying problems. At the end of the day, this operation needs tighter training, clearer processes, (get an operations checklist!) and a higher standard of quality if it's going to live up to its own marketing. read more

First time here. We tried both types of the chicken sandwiches offered, with a mix of the French fries and tater tots, the wings combo with the mac and cheese, and the chicken Pierre strips combo with the mashed potatoes and gravy. The food was very good, made fresh to order, and the sandwiches were very large in size, and the portions of everything else were of good size and plenty to share. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the coleslaw, and I wish I could have tried the other sauces, but they charge extra for each one and it is a bit on the pricey side but worth the trip. Would recommend. Parking is hard to find. read more

Please, change the oil, stop burning the wings, and hire people who actually know how to fry chicken. I will never in my life come back here. read more

The chicken is fantastic but we had to wait half an hour past our pickup time for a catering order that I put In and paid for the day before, Not sure they had started making it when we arrived to pick it up and except for the young man who brought our order to our car, they didn't seem to care much. No apologies for the wait. We were late to the party we were hostjng. It's unfortunate because the chicken is very good but I'd hesitate to order again. read more

We REALLY wanted to love this! Had heard good things and was hoping to have a new staple. First of the wings. Terrible. No meat, super tiny and no flavor at all. We did get one leg to try since it had different seasoning and that was good! Definitely skip the wings and go for chicken legs and thighs. Tator tots were good. A little over salted, but good. French fries had a really good seasoning, but were killed with salt overload. Chicken strips were the winner, although the buffalo was not spicy at all. I think we would go straight for bucket of chicken next time and ask for tots and fries without salt. Lastly, seems very overpriced for chicken strips?? read more

Top-notch options and incredible sides like homemade chips, crispy fries, and tater tots!

Really wanted to like this place but ordered 6 tender meal and 12 shrimp meal. Was over $50 and got 3 shrimp and 4 chicken tenders in one box. Will never return and be sure to check your order before you leave!!!!!! read more

Like many reviewers, we really wanted to like their chicken sandwiches but were disappointed with what we've seen advertised on youtubes the website menu of $15-16 vs what we got for $17.99. We walked into a very small, narrow wooden shack with food and trash all over the floors. We came too far to turn around so our group just placed their orders and said a lil prayer. After about 30 minutes we got our first order. We came in a group so while waiting for the other orders, we peeked into our box and noticed the small portion of fries so we decided to order a separate order of fries. Also, the not so "colosal" chicken cutlet was on a regular sized bun not the double split top Turano bun we expected. The fries and tots were ok but the portions were small for large pricing (8). The sauces are hella sweet and nothing special. All mayo based with possibly sugar or honey enough to blow your glucose numbers off the charts! The price hikes from last few months to now for smaller portions, lesser quality is on par with deceitful businesses practices passing on any reported rising "tariff related" costs down to their customers. You don't get return customers when you are willing to compromise your reputation for not selling what makes your place popular in the first place. Even though the gal taking orders was very nice and friendly she was less than honest when questioned about the bait and bun switch of it all. Bottom line, this place isn't worth the travel or your coins! And for anyone wanting to try this place because of all the hype...you're better off getting a Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich and fries... way better and won't break the wallet! read more

Surprisingly, this place was pretty good. My expectations weren't too high walking in and I see that as the entrance (picture attached). At first, I thought they were closed, they boxes weren't even neatly stacked up. BUT other than that, the food was one of the better chicken places in Berwyn. I've been wanting to try this place since it opened, not too long ago, and I finally gave it a go & even convinced my family to try it after my good food experience. It's a nice local spot that I plan on going to in the future as well. The service was ehh, nothing crazy nor not bad service either. Especially try the freshly squeezed lemonade! Very sugary but very high quality too, great mixer haha if you're in the area, this place wouldn't hurt to give a try! I would recommend at least once. Personal Review: 7.9/10 read more

I tried the chicken sandwich for the first time and it was not that bad and I felt like two people can eat from one sandwich that's how big it was And don't be shy and give them a try read more

I'm not sure where to even begin... First of all, I feel sick to my stomach. I just wasted $32 on a chicken sandwich and a couple of "Italian beef" egg rolls. We ordered the Berwyn Hot chicken sandwich and 2 Italian beef egg rolls with 2 DCs. First, let me start with the cokes were not cold. Ok, fine. NBD. Second, the lady who came in after us and ordered a chicken sandwich as well, got her food before us. I'm positive those egg rolls do not take longer than the chicken sandwich. Third, the egg rolls seem like they are premade. There is hardly any filling and they don't come with any au just for dipping. At $4 a pop, definitely not worth it. Go down the road to Lavergne's. I promise you won't be disappointed. The chicken sandwich comes with sauce, coleslaw and pickles. We received three tiny pickles that could be consumed in a single bite. I was still excited to taste the chicken sandwich at this point. Well, it was way overcooked and for some reason - SWEET. Why is my "hot" chicken sandwich sweet? Apparently, they put some honey stuff on there. There was nothing hot about that sandwich whatsoever. Also, the sandwich make look big, but the chicken inside of all that breading is barely there. Really, the only think I could taste was overcooked breading and that sauce. Since we were eating there, I went to the counter and let the guy know that I didn't like any of my food. He told me that he couldn't give me my money back, but he could remake the egg rolls if I wanted. I was floored. Working in the restaurant business for as many years as I have, you KNOW this is NEVER the right answer. A bad review goes a lot further than a good one. Also, I'm not one for wasting food, but this just wasn't edible. So now, I'm down $32 and still haven't had any dinner. I supported them before they closed and was super excited to go try the new concept. Never again. I'm just absolutely sick over this. The worst part about it was that even though I told the guy my sandwich was overcooked and tasted bad, he never offered to remake that. BUYER BEWARE read more

Never again, highly disappointed. This was my 2nd time back , and they just lost a customer. Not that it matters but to wait 1.5 hours on an online order for (1) reg sized chicken sandwich is ridiculous.. don't waste your time. However, The food is super good but having to wait at the establishment for an extra 1 hour without acknowledgment is non sense. The 1st time I was there , I was a walk in and got my food 40min later and that was still a long time to wait. I asked about my order twice, and by the 3rd time i was fuming.. if you value your time, you can get better service elsewhere. FTP read more

Berwyn Chicken - Berwyn Chicken Co hot chicken sandwich (not as advertised) - Chicken Wings Near Me - Berwyn, Illinois

We really wanted to like this place. The hype was everywhere for a while during COVID but after giving them 3-4 tries, not so good. First time we tried ordering was by phone. They didn't answer for 30 minutes of trying to get through. Then when they did they said hold on and we got put on hold for 10 minutes. They came back on and took our order and said give us 30-45 minutes. We came in to pick it up after 45 minutes and told it still wasn't ready, give them another few minutes. After 20 minutes we checked and they said it was next. We saw 2-3 more people pick up orders and it asked what happened, they said sorry, we gave your order to someone else. And they'd remake it. We said never mind and left. Second time, we went in for a late lunch hoping to beat any crowd and it didn't fare well either. Waited 30 minutes for 2 chicken sandwiches and tots. Got the food and the chicken was hard as a hockey puck. Third time was months later. Ordered ahead again. Went in to pick it up and guess what, it wasn't ready yet. Even after an hour after placing the order. The said sorry it's been real busy, like they do every time we've gone in. But that can't be your excuse after being in business for a couple years now. How do you not have this together yet? Finally got the order, brought it home and found food missing from the order we placed. Last time, still no change except the chicken this time was waaaaaay smaller and barely fit on the bun. What happened to those oversize breast! In short, this place can't get it together. Wait times insane. Food orders never right. Quality of food hit or mis, but mostly a mis. We also don't get the owner or main chef guy that does all their ads. Why so angry? And why are you never in the kitchen when we go there? Also, why are they still advertising the old sausage stand business everywhere? Nothing about the chicken joint they are today. All the signs and displays are sun faded. They all talk about Big Guys Sausage. You might want to change that up as you are not the sausage stand anymore and haven't been in years. If it's the same owner cool, but your not the same food or name. It's kind of misleading. They make you think it's all big marketing and accolades from all over, but it's not about the chicken business. Then there's the cost. They like to shout saying things like, "look at the size of this thing!" and where else you gonna get a chicken sandwich this big for this price. That would be fine if the food was actually really good. But this is just oversized portions for the sake of it. No concentration on quality at all. In short, if you're going to order from here, be prepared for a long wait and double check your order before you leave the building. We do like the Svengoolie references though! Maybe you could have him come out for a special event and cross promotions Notes to the business / management / owner: - Get your staff trained up! Not enough staff or they don't know what they're doing. - Update your decor to match what business you are. Are you Berwyn Chicken or Big Guys Sausage? - Work on quality over quantity. Yeah, you've got a big ass sandwich. Ok, but is it any good? - Get that time down! There is no reason you can't get those food orders under 30 minutes or at least on time to what you tell people. It's chicken and fries all of which are on timers. - Stop with all the excuses. It's ALWAYS something. Someone called in. You got real busy. The fryer was down. You ran out of chicken. If it's the staff, hire the right people. - What's with the attitude? You're not as hip and cool as you think. You gotta earn it. Otherwise, you're just an Ed Debevic's serving bad chicken. read more

Love this place! I've had the chicken wing dinner with a side of mac and cheese. I've also had the fried shrimp and the chips. The chicken was very tasty. I wasn't a huge fan of the mac and cheese. My favorite item is the fried shrimp and the freshly made chips. The shrimp are HUGE! They are perfectly fried and well seasoned and come with your choice of sauce but they are so well seasoned you really don't need sauce. The chips are nice and thin cut and light and crispy. Although it's called Berwyn Chicken, I'm totally hooked on the shrimp! read more

Came in here on a snowy day and did not regret my decision. I had heard the portions were generous and my expectations were definitely met. The patty was bigger than my face and perfectly fried. I'm a big tater tot person so I'm glad we were able to pick an additional option. I will say the hot sandwich has a sweet and spicy consistency which I generally opt out of but it still tasted great. You can definitely share this sandwich but I hope to come back and try more on the menu read more

Was the chicken good? Yes. Will I return? NEVER. never ever ever. I had to pull up 3 different times because they could not give me what I ordered. (Missing items multiple times) On top of waiting 30 more minutes from when I was told my food would be ready on my confirmation email, by time I was home the fries & chicken were cold and stale. The mashed potatoes were warm because that was the last thing I had to turn back around for because they didn't bother checking that all my items were in the bag. I was so close to leaving the food and asking for a refund but after 50 min of waiting I took the L and took it home. If you're okay with the service being that horrid, definitely check them out. read more
