When in Silverdale for work I came across a Chevron gas station with a Chester's sign on the building. I had only heard of Chester's Chicken, but have never seen one until now. I got gas and decided to go in to check it out. This was later in the day so the hot case was pretty empty and I wasn't sure if I could order to-go fresh, so I left without trying Chester's.
Disappointed that I didn't get to try it, I searched Yelp to see where the next closest Chester's location was. It brought up a Port Orchard location. I decided that on my way home while passing through Port Orchard I would stop by this location to give it a try.
Little did I know, this whole time while researching this location on Yelp, it too was in a Chevron gas station. Not sure why I thought it was a store front, but nonetheless I was going to try this chicken!
I ordered the 3 tenders & 3 jojos deal for $4.99 , and to my surprise it was really good. The items were fresh and the quality surprisingly good for a gas station. When I placed my order the guy behind the counter called for more tenders, mind you there were only 6-7 pieces in the hot case. This leads me to believe they try their best to keep the items hot and fresh.
Decent sized pieces of chicken and jojos for the price. The chicken was moist, tender, and the light batter well seasoned. The jojos were lightly battered and well seasoned too.
I was pleasantly surprised with Chester's, even if the food is fresh out of a gas station's hot case. read more
