Friendly and knowledgable staff. I had to ask what oils they cook in to make sure-they use vegetable oil to cook their chicken if you were curious. I decided to stop in and try it on a day off. I ordered the KC BBQ bubble waffle with chicken and the cinnamon shake. I can't remember the name but it had Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and caramel! It was delicious!! The chicken was really tender and the waffle was good though I will get the regular waffle next time as the bubble waffle got really soggy quickly. Overall, I would go again and keep trying items from the menu. Check it out! read more

Chick-in Waffle - KC BBQ chicken and bubble waffle with cinnamon shake to drink - American Near Me - Independence, Missouri

This place was a fast food restaurant, but really good. We all had the original chicken and waffles and a couple of shakes. The chicken was very moist and there was a lot of it. We all left feeling very full. read more

There's a first time for everything and today was our initial visit to this place. I can guarantee you - - it will NOT be our last. The young man working the counter were expert at menu selection(s) and flavors to expect. I wish we'd asked about portions. Trust me on this - - they are beyond generous! We enjoyed lunch with our son and daughter-in-law (#DIL). Their eldest recommended it to them, and it was a first time for all four of us. My husband ordered the six piece wings with three flavors of sauce and fries. Their fries are outstanding! Reminding me of the frites we'd enjoyed in Belgium! Creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Best I've ever had in the USA! I loved my bubble waffle with sriracha sauced chicken breast. Let's break that down: - - - never heard of nor eaten a bubble waffle. It is not as dense as an original, and I ~~LOVED~~ every morsel. - - - never have I EVER had a better breaded chicken breast or tenders. This thing was melt in your mouth DELICIOUS Our #DIL chose the Chick-In Maple. She commented how delicious it was. The manager stopped at our table to see how we were doing. Our #DIL asked if she could try one of their savory sauces. The manager went above and beyond, with three varieties of sauces! *** Chick-in Sauce *** Garlic Parmesan *** Nashville Sauce They were all tasty Our son ordered the Classic Sandwich Meal which is the bargain of the day. It includes a heaping helping of their fries and a fountain drink. Great choice - - plus he claimed his sandwich was fantastic. And so large, he only ate HALF of the sandwich!! We ordered a loaded Queso Fries. Were we surprised to see chicken tenders on a bed of fries with two kinds of cheese (queso) slathered over the top. HUGE portions which the four of us barely touched! You will ~ ~ NOT ~ ~ be surprised to learn that each of us left with half of our tray. My husband's wings of six?? He ate TWO and brought home FOUR. It was pleasant to eat there and not do take out. They have a cool mural of some of the favorite scenic spots in KCMO. It's rather bare bones as far as decor, but it felt appropriate. We were able to focus our attention on the food!! I cannot wait to return and SHARE a meal with my spouse. read more

How could I eat here and not do a Yelp? I admit, I got it door dashed good from Chick-in-waffle when I'm 5 minutes away. The order was still warm and I enjoyed it. I loved the bubble waffle and wished I had ordered another. It was crispy and delicious. Albeit huge. The chicken was better seasoned than Crane's and I really enjoyed it. I ordered a second piece of chicken, thinking it was a chicken finger. It's not. It's almost an entire meal I do wish I'd gotten a second waffle. I don't trust restaurant maple syrup to be 100%, so I use mine. I ordered a frozen strawberry drink. This might have been ordering it from DoorDash, it was mostly melted. I've ordered slushies from other places, they are frozen. I'm so close to Chick in Waffle and will be ordering or visiting there again (and probably on repeat.) read more

Chick-in Waffle - American Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Mr. G. And I tried out Chick-in-Waffle tonight for dinner. I had the KC Chicken with a Bubble Waffle. Mr. G. Had the Memphis Chicken in a bunch, which comes with fries. The food was meh. Both Mr. G. and I thought the coating on the chicken was too hot, and the only flavor we got was paprika. Mr. G. Was more critical of his sandwich in that he thought it needed more coleslaw and would have liked to have a side of coleslaw. We both agreed the fries were excellent. My bubble waffle was good, but I doo wish I would have gone with the Belgian waffle. The BBQ sauce was KC Masterpiece, like. Service is order at the counter, and they bring it out to your table. They were speedy. The ambiance was somewhat industrial and drafty. There were three separate families and groups that sat at a table, then left to find different seating. We were pleased they had normal size chairs and tables and not booths. They also had bistro table seating, which I no longer find comfortable. read more

We were headed back to STL and looking for an easy lunch on our way out of town - we initially stopped for whataburger but this spot caught our eye so we went for it. I'm so glad we did! For lunch time, the line wasn't long at all. The food can take a little bit of time so be ready for that but that's because it's super fresh. I got a wrap and my husband got a sandwich. The chicken was so crispy and delicious on the outside, moist and tender on the inside, fried perfectly. Great flavors, great options. It would be cool to have this spot closer to STL! read more

The food is hot, fresh, and delicious. The staff is very friendly. I had the maple waffle and chicken. The waffle is light and golden. The chicken is well-seasoned. My daughter got the kids meal and it was a great value with a slushy included. read more

The restaurant is in a great location! Across the street from Costco in Independence. There was plenty of parking, and it's in a nice strip mall, next to Crumbl Cookies! The restaurant has slick painted floors, the chairs are slippery against the floor, so be careful. They didn't have soda, the pop machine was not working. They had slushy frozen lemonade that was incredible. They had other types of teas, but no sugar packets and no artificial sweetener to offer. The water dispenser dispensed air temp water, and when you are looking forward to a cold drink, it's not a good thing. They did give me a cup with a few ice cubes, but I really wish their pop machine was working! The food: eh... I would venture to guess that their desserts are great, their waffles were crisp on the perimeter, but the glaze on the chicken made the rest of the waffle very soggy. More concerning was the texture of the chicken. I prefer fresh chicken that is breaded and fried. This chicken tasted like it was warmed up in the oven. I wasn't sure if these patties were a constructed patty or if they were a chicken breast that was filleted. It didn't have the right texture for fresh chicken. I enjoyed the parmesan flavor, but only for the first few bites. Fries were cold. For the Canadian Buffalo, these patties were topped with syrup-Buffalo sauce, cheese and chives. Again, on top of a waffle that was soggy. My husband wasn't able to even have more than 1 bite. It was extremely spicy, and the aftertaste was bitter. I did take my left overs home, but after driving in the car with them, I noticed a very distinct smell of bad oil. I threw away the leftovers. So why 3 stars and not 1? The service was good, the restaurant was clean, it was busy and people appeared as if they were having fun. The staff were very nice! They tried! The decor was fun, and I wish our dinners were up to par. I will probably try this place again, and I will order dessert this time. I also want to try their loaded fries. Price points: it was $30 including tip for 2 meals and a frozen lemonade, register prompts for 25%, 20% ,15% or custom. It's hard to tip prior to receiving food and service. Again; I will be back, and I will try a different item.. read more

Chick-in Waffle - QUESO FRIES - American Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Ordered for the first time tonight. I thought it was really good. My only feedback would be the milkshakes were a little runny for my personal taste. I like my milkshakes thick. Will try again and see if that is normal or was just who made it tonight. read more

Chicken was tender and flavorful! Great service and eat-in dinning area was clean and cozy.

This place was so good! They have the friendliest staff who greet you when you walk in and check on you while you are eating to make sure everything is good, which it was so good. My husband and I got the Garlic Parmesan Sandwich meal and Chick-in Queso waffle and shared everything. Let's start with the Chick-in Queso Waffle. This was so delicious. We got the bubble waffle that had the perfect crispy and fluffy parts all together. The chicken was juicy and crispy and everything was a good balance of sweet and savory. The Sandwich meal was equally as good as the waffle. It had an amazing garlic parm sauce that made this sandwich. The fries were also absolutely delicious especially with the garlic parm sauce. We will definitely be going back to try different things read more

Good quality chicken and I really like the bubble waffle. My son got the chicken strips and it was really good. Huge chicken strips and the fries were perfectly crispy. They also make their own chicken sauce and it's basically a better version of Cane's sauce. Service was fast and everyone was super nice. The interior is all KC themed and I always love supporting KC grown businesses. read more

Chick-in Waffle - Canadian Buffalo Bubble Waffle - American Near Me - Independence, Missouri

Ordered togo got home and it was complete mush it was gross!!!!!!!!!!!! they need to figure out a way to separate the chicken from the waffle in transport. Besides that ordering was fast asian chili wasnt that good no allergen menu no ingredients had a 10$ coupon and will probably not return over priced and not that great. will make our own. read more

Decent food but missing a few key things. I visited on a Friday night and the place was not too busy. Service was quick and staff were friendly. I like the patio seating which gave a little upgrade to their laid back vibe. The Asian chili chicken was not crispy enough for me. I like extra crispy breading to enjoy that crunch in every bite. There also was not enough sauce for me. If I'm getting chicken tossed in sauce I want it all over my plate to really savor the flavor. The bubble waffle to me did not have as much sweetness as I'd like but I understand that this may have been to not draw too much away from the chicken flavor. Overall, I do think it's worth a try for their unique combinations. read more

This place has good service, good food, good atmosphere. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Yummy!

The place setting and ambiance was ok. Nothing special. However what blew us away was the food and the enormous portion size! We had Nashville hot chicken and fries, which was nice and spicy. This was the hit for me. We also went with the Norma chicken in waffles (maple syrup one). This was also very good and large. We will definitely be back to sample more of the menu! Oh shoot I forgot about the service. This was top notch. They were very nice and helpful. read more

Yelp did not disappoint again! This cute little restaurant came up #1 in my search for fast food while on a Costco run today, and it was delicious! I had the KC BBQ chicken on a bubble waffle and the flavors were amazing. The chicken was done perfectly, the bubble waffle was crispy and tasty, and the sauces were the perfect blend of spicy and sweet. Even the pickles were delicious! And the server was so polite and friendly. I'll be back, even though it's right next door to another favorite, Jerusalem Cafe. read more

First time having Chicken and Waffles. I got the plain Chick-in Maple. I didn't know if I would like them, but the sweetness went so well with the chicken! My wife had the boneless chicken and they were very large! Lastly, the fries were excellent. Salted just right and a good thickness. I'll be back to try other more adventurous combinations! read more
