Excellent chicken at every location I've been too, yum!!! Truly good chicken. Love the sides.

The bushes location in lacy lake view is the best. Friendly , and fast service always, and great quality food.

Went there for a tender roll, but the employee switched my debit card with another customer's and when I called 12 min later on 2/8/26 at 8:55pm the person who called themself the assistant manager proved to be unhelpful and disrespectful with the way they handled their mistake of swapping my card. "Denise" refused to provide her name or provide the manager's name to get my issue resolved stating she didn't know the managers name because she was new. She expected me to go up there and return a strangers card for her to save face. This was ridiculous. read more

What a disappointment. Ordered a 6 piece tender meal with fries and a order of buffalo fries. The 6 piece tender meal only had about 15 fries in it, and the buffalo fries barely had any sauce on the chicken and the fries were just laying on top with no ranch on it. I also ordered a sweet tea and it was not sweet and had no ice. And the service was terrible, we waited about twice as long as everyone else in the drive thru. read more

The service was great! Always have awesome kids working here. Unfortunately the chicken is not appetizing. I ordered a four tender meal and every tender tasted like the smell of burnt hair. Completely inedible. Maybe rancid oil? The fries, roll, and gravy were good, though. read more

Excellent service. All staff was working and attentive. The food was hot and everything was good.

Worst freaking bush's in Waco took forever for someone to take my order I literally kept getting skipped over then 45 minutes later someone finally come takes my order it took. Them 20 minutes later instead of handing me my food like a human the employee shoves the items in my hand ... WORST BUSHS EVER read more

Bush's Chicken - Fried Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Waco, Texas

Popeyes, church's and Chicago style chicken is 300 times better. Plus, Bushs sides are bland and out the can n cardboard box.

Can't believe they actually serve day old chicken at this place. Well if it wasn't day old that's how it tasted. I order a four piece tender meal. Upon receiving my meal, everything looked great the side were hot and I guess it's my fault for assuming the chicken would be too (Seeing that the place was booming with guess). I take a bite of one of my tenders and it was like okay I got a bad one, NOPE ALL FOUR TENDERS, ALL FOUR! Almost like they got them out of someone's car window after sitting there for hours. I'm more upset that I had to turn around in rush our traffic to get back to the establishment and if anyone know this location knows how bad traffic can get. Long story short they replace my "day old" tenders with some piping hot tenders "YES"! It's just a shame I had go through all of this for food that could have been done right the first time. Unacceptable read more

I ordered gizzards meal and about 2 or 3 of the gizzards were moldy. The fries were undercooked and the bread was hard. Best thing was probably the drink read more

Chicken is expensive , would not be a problem if you were able to eat it ? Ordered 10 piece mixed with/2 sides . Almost 37 dollars. Went at 6 pm. Got home ready to eat not 1 piece was edible was dried chicken was brown to black looking meat under all hard crust. This is not a first time this has happened to me . Last time purchased for more people same thing happened only about 3 pieces out of a 15 piece mixed was good . Paid 53 dollars and change . I'm just warning people about experiences . I had just gotten off of work 12 plus hour day. Did not want to return to the store. Was tired and upset. read more

French fries aren't mashed potatoes. You repeated my order and they don't sound the same at all so my conclusion is someone up there must be illiterate. read more

good people and good food! everyone is super friendly and omg the sweet tea!!!

They have a half-price deal on Sunday nights, and I am all over that! The chicken is good (forget about eating healthy), the fries are good, and the sweet tea is as sweet as ever. I totally recommend this place to anyone who loves fried chicken and quick service, read more

I can shamelessly say that I absolutely love Bush's chicken. I've only seen Bush's chicken in the Waco area and I'm super happy that they are expanding to Houston. My family of 5 always gets the family pack of 30 tenders, 3 family sides, freshly baked bread rolls, and 2 huge cups of their delicious gravy. For the family sides, we get the corn, corn nuggets, and mashed potatoes. I definitely think that you should get corn nuggets over french fries any day. Corn nuggets are basically delicious fried balls of cream corn, definitely a must. The one thing that ties the whole meal together is the nice, hot gravy. If you put that gravy on anything, i'll eat it. I dip not only the chicken tenders but also everything else. I absolutely love it. Because Bush's is near Baylor University, they offer Baylor student discounts every Sunday at a certain time. I will definitely be coming next year. read more

Love everything about this place. A must place to eat when in TX! I love their gravy, gizzards, chicken, rolls and okra. Sweet tea is a must! Can't get over this place. I always try to come here when we're in the area. Can't get enough of it! read more

It seems like every bush's i go to gives me the wrong sides. the general manager took my order and i drove all the way home and went to eat my food to see that she had given me the wrong side. this happens almost every time i go to bush's. i always go to eat the food and something was forgotten. it's very frustrating. i love bush's chicken but please just give me the right sides. read more

Food is good I'm just a Canes girl at heart! Really good prices and amazing sweet tea.

Came over here after a night of shopping with my sister in law. We were gonna get food for the family. We settled on the 15pc mixed meal... The girl took our order and it must've taken a half hour for it to come out. When it came out, we were so ready to be home that we did'nt check it. When we got home, we saw that they just threw in 9 pieces of chicken, it was all dark (which is fine, to be honest. Their breasts are usually dry), we only got one side and NO ROLLS! Fries were stale and flavorless, as usual. AND they forgot the tea, which is common, so I don't usually complain about that. When I got home, we called them to tell them about it and the woman that answered the phone had one of the meanest attitudes I've had to deal with in a while. She offered for me to go back and pick up the 6 pieces of chicken and rolls and fries the next day before noon. No thanks. We just won't be back. read more

-Drove out of my way because I THOUGHT this Bush's would be better than the rest. -Kid got my order wrong. -Didn't realize until I get home. -Drove all the way back. -Manager chastised ME because her employee got my order wrong. -"Oh, but here's 1 extra little mutant tender for your trouble." -Hardly any fries and the ones I got were stale. -Asked for "easy ice" in my drink. They didn't listen there either. -Tenders were dry and tasted like they've been sitting under a heat lamp all day. Never going back to this store. Too many idiots. read more

Nothing fancy about any of the Bush's locations. The rolls and tea are good. The strips are boring a flavorless to me. The serendipity barely helps. read more

Not much of a chicken tender or fried chicken gal but man!!! This chicken is good!! The sweet tea is so yummy too!! I think their BBQ sauce is the best I've ever had, which surprised me. Not a fan of their gravy, I prefer brown gravy to white read more

Need to change their protocol for processing credit/debit card transactions for drive through customers immediately, law suit waiting to happen. My card left my sight for an excessive amount of time, much longer than necessary to properly process payment and return. The restaurant was not busy. No excuse, very unprofessional and poor procedure. The manager could use some additional training as well, terrible demeanor when dealing with customers. I do not recommend giving any business to this location. It's worth a drive elsewhere to keep your card information safe and avoid unpleasant service by the manager. read more

Went today at 11:35am you would think the food would be fresh! I am pretty sure I received warmed up tenders from last night! the only thing slightly warm was the gravy! Tenders and fries cold and old! read more

Won't come back to this location....love bushes but the drive thru here took 5 minutes before they even took my order....I would have understood if it were prime meal time but it's 3pm on a tuesday...it's like they had one person running the drive thru. There were only 3 cars...it would be quicker to drive to another bushes location in the future. Been this exact experience 3 times now read more

Great chicken, OK gravy. The chicken alone would have made this five stars but they don't have regular gravy only white. However you can use hot sauce or barbeque sauce. read more
