Visiting from out of town, I heard that chicken salad is a big deal in the south. I came in for lunch with my family right as they opened. There is plenty of seating and it's a very quaint feel inside. There are so many variations of chicken salad - wow! I ordered the sandwich combo, the Classic Carol style chicken salad to be safe. I had a side order of fruit and a fountain drink. This is how you turn a simple meal into a southern staple! The best chicken salad sandwich I've had from an eatery, really well done. This isn't your average to-go, premade, store bought chicken salad; this takes it up a notch. The staff are so friendly and patient while you read through the menu and choose your flavor. I wish we had this chain where I live! read more

Chicken Salad Chick - Chicken Salad BLT with a side of Pasta Salad and pink lemonade as the drink. - Sandwiches Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

My wife, daughter and friend visited this restaurant on a girls weekend trip and this is their review: First time here and we will definitely return. The variety of chicken salads offered will tempt any palate! We got the trio plate and my daughter ordered an extra side of grape salad. We all enjoyed our choice. There's a choice of getting a sandwich or a scoop with crackers. I did think offering different types of pickle slices would be a good idea. I love pickles but the dill slice didn't compliment my salad flavor choices. I think I would have asked for a sweet pickle or bread n' butter. read more

"Good food brings people together and nourishes the soul" That's what the wall says at this location in Gainesville and I could not agree more. Yes, the food is great and if you love chicken salad then Chicken Salad Chick is your heaven. What separates this locations from others though is the crew they have!! They are always happy to serve you and asking of thete is anything else you need. They'll walk by and clean your tray if needed and take anything over to the trash for you if needed. The level of service at this location is EXCELLENT, I always leave happy with a full and happy belly. read more

Great Service and The best chicken salad around! Highly recommend to try all the great flavors.

Amazing spot! I went there on Fri. 3/28, but since I was visiting from out of town, writing a review slipped my mind until now lol. This was my first time ever at a Chicken Salad Chick PLUS I'm only just now getting into chicken salads because I've always been picky about the texture. Anyway, the gentleman who helped me was very kind and patient, even walking me through all their options, providing recommendations and even samples. I wish I remembered his name! I dined in and I don't even think my sandwich and soup took a full minute to be ready. The jalapeño holly was PHENOMENAL and has only a minimal amount of mayo, which is exactly what I was looking for in a chicken salad! The prices are also quite affordable in comparison to many fast food/fast casual restaurants, and the place was very clean:) read more

We love the food at chicken salad chick. However, they don't follow their published hours. They often close early to the published time. This has been a repeated experience. They need to update their time to a closing of 7 o'clock instead of constantly putting a sign on the door that we are closing early just to clean the restaurant, if you're going to close early, then update your time and close. The staff is very rude. They will note that the drive-through is open but when you go through the drive-through, they tell you that there's no food available but one or two items. It's such a shame because it's a great restaurant that their service is definitely changed related to how they handle their evenings. read more

quick and delicious lunch spot after a long morning of shopping! the location is so ideal - right next to the outlets! the food is always fresh and delicious. they have several options for ways to serve the chicken salad including on bread or salad and it's always served with a delicious side (pasta salad, loaded potato soup, and fresh fruit)! read more

Great place to get my favorite kind of food: chicken salad!! Don't forget a good side dish. My favorite recommendation was the potato soup. Your meal comes with a free buttercream cookie. Such a great place to take a bunch of girlfriends and just enjoy each other's company and a light lunch. The place has great service and wonderful workers. Be sure to download the app and keep up with your points. read more

I convinced 2 friends to meet me here for lunch this past Saturday based upon my experiences with the location in Dawsonville. This was a big disappointment and I felt badly for bringing friends here. All three of our sandwiches came on stale, dry and tough croissants. The amount of chicken salad was meager on 2 of the 3. Normally the broccoli salad is delish, but it was bone dry and tasteless! read more

How can you not love this place? The ambiance makes you feel right at home, or like you're having lunch in a cozy grandma's kitchen with their fun and funky southern decor. Service is something this entire franchise takes pride in and it shows... the staff is always knowledgeable about their menu items and they do a great job recommending combinations of flavors. And then there's the food... who knew there would be soooo many ways to create so many different chicken salad flavors? The seasonal "Delicious Diva" chicken salad is my personal all-time favorite! What's yours??? read more

The food is good although a bit expensive. We placed a to go order 30 before closing and waited 15 minutes in the dining area before the manager asked what we were waiting on. Evidently the order was lost between paying at the cash register and order fulfillment. A gift voucher was provided only after we asked about service recovery from the disappointing experience. read more

The chicken salad itself was excellent. We ordered the Olivia's Southern one as sandwiches. The sides were mediocre, bordering on not that great to me, but not horrible. We ordered this via door dash so we didn't experience the service or ambiance. We will be trying more soon. It's nice to have fresh food options! read more

Classic place! Our favorite place to eat when we need a quick or light lunch. Always a place to sit even when it's busy.

Good sandwiches but I guess too pricey for the amount you get. Nice staffs. Parking is unbearable

Went to CSC for my favorite lunch. Apparently they don't close at 3 they close whenever they feel like. I pulled into the drive they at 2:50 after waiting 5 minutes in THEIR LINE!! when I got to the order screen I was told that the system was already turned off and they couldn't help me!! Absolute bull, I was on time but their slow drive though ruined it. The girl on the voice box was also very nasty about it and didn't try to get ven help at all. 0/10 would not recommend!! read more

Chicken Salad Chick - Closed after waitin in line 10 minutes! - Sandwiches Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

So I had heard about this place. All of my ER work peeps rave about it. So the wife and I finally had a day in Gainesville to try it. OMG! I can see why they all talk about it. So I do love me some chicken salad. So I am kind of picky. But damn! This was on point! Staff was amazing. Let us try the ones we had questions about. Didn't rush us first timers. Very nice clean space. I got the special which was some kind of southwest style. Was awesome. My wife got the Kickin Kay Lynne. It was super good too. Meal came with a big side, pickle and and cookie. I feel like it was a good value for the price. I really enjoyed this place. Try it! read more

I enjoy this brand and have always gotten the chicken salad on previous visits. Today, I stopped in to grab lunch for my sister and I. My sister is a healthcare worker. I wanted to surprise her with lunch and to make her smile as these have been some trying times. I wanted to try something different today so I ordered the Turkey Club sandwich on a croissant. The sandwich was" just ok". The turkey lacked flavor, the bacon was cold, and the honey mustard sauce was bland. (There are definitely better tasting honey mustard sauces out there) The size of the sandwich was pretty mediocre at the price point of $8.99 for a sandwich and chips. The customer service is typically good here and today was no different. read more

I ordered Olivia's Old South on Toasted Wheat. Really good, reminds me of how my mother made it. The side was Mac & Cheese. It good for what it is. Service was prompt & courteous. The only downside I have is the parking. The lot is small & shares with 5-Guys . I recommend using the drive through. Overall it's a great place for lunch. read more

A little irritated by this location. They waited til after we placed our order and paid to tell us there was no seating left. We looked around and saw many people either waiting for their food or eating it. Thankfully we found a table outside. I wish the people making the food would read tickets, it's not difficult. Food was good though after I fixed my order. read more

Wife and I have a delicious sandwich and she had a bowl of tomato basil soup.The price was reasonable,and the employees was awesome

Omg where to start! Something for everyone! So many flavors of chicken salad! My husband loves their jalapeño, I love the fancy Nancy. One of these days I want to try the lemon basil! Ohhhh and if you like broccoli or a sweet broccoli salad- they have it as a side & it is SO good! Yummm! I'm not a fan of the sweet tea tho, the only, single minor complaint. read more

Paid $8 for a small cup of soup a this. Ordered the salad and a soup... sorry but I was expecting an actual salad... probably will never come again or maybe I should order something different? read more

Great food! Always fresh. Quick service as well.Friendly staff. Wish there was one in Jasper GA!

This review isn't really about the food, but the service. The food is quite good, but the service is not. We came for lunch today with our 4 year old daughter who is both picky and does not eat much. Her options here are either PB&J (Uncrustable) or macaroni & cheese. When I went to order lunch, she just wanted PB&J and that's what I tried to order for her. Turns out, you cannot order just a PB&J and you are forced to order the entire meal. $6 for an Uncrustable is crazy. I tried to explain that I did not want the side or drink, and they insisted that there was no way to do that. I asked if they can ring up a side separately, and I was told they could, but the PB&J is not a side. I asked if they could charge me for a side of macaroni & cheese and just hand me an Uncrustable instead, and I was told they could not. Literally the only way to get an Uncrustable is to purchase the entire kids meal. I ended up purchasing just a side of macaroni and cheese and tried to tell my daughter that they were out. One of the managers I spoke to at the register came around and asked if everything was okay, and I mentioned aside from the fact that my daughter didn't get what she wanted. This started up the entire debate again. She asked if we wanted to speak to the general manager. A girl named Amy came out and told us that the other girl did the right thing by not accommodating my request. Their POS system does not allow them to ring up a child sandwich only, and making an exception for me could lead to future exceptions which would throw their inventory off. I said it's silly that their POS system dictates what they can do for customer service. It wasn't until I said that I would be leaving negative reviews on Yelp, Trip Advisor, and Facebook that she suddenly changed her tune. She admitted that it was a common request and she would let their tech/IT department know that they needed a new option on their register and she would bring my daughter an Uncrustable. Needless to say, since it takes 3 supervisors and a threat of negative reviews to purchase only an Uncrustable for a child, we will save ourselves the headache and not return. read more

Ok...so I get my combo. I open one of my crackers up..then notice one of my pickles was already bit into. I immediately proceed to counter, where one of the managers is at, and I tell her about the pickle. She didnt understand me, and told me she would have a pickle brought out to me. I tell her NO,..IM NOT missing a pickle..but that mine was bitten. She said..oh I'm sorry, it appears to be cut that way. REALLY? REALLY? CUZ ALL OTHER PICKLES HAVE RAZOR EDGE STRAIGHT CUTS!! SO..she asked if I wanted a whole new plate OR IF I JUST WANTED A NEW PICKLE!!?? OMG!!! WOW...IM DISGUSTED..SHE DIDNT SEEM TO CARE..I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A PIC OF OBVIOUS BITE MARKS. NEEDLESS TO SAY..IM NEVER COMMING BACK ..HELL NO!! read more

I admit at first the thought of just a chicken salad place had me thinking I won't like it and it can't last. Well my tune has been changed. It is very good and there are lots of variations of chicken salad. You can get a scoop of chicken salad and they will give you some crackers for it. You can get chicken salad sammich on white, wheat or croissant. You also get a side which could be soup, another scoop of chicken salad, some pimento cheese and some other options. Best thing you get an iced sugar cookie with your selection. It is a nice way to end the meal and just the right couple of bites ending. Now they have everything from plan chicken salad to spice chicken salad. I detest pickles but for some reason I love Olivia's old south chicken salad which has pickle relish in it. In the end if you like chicken salad or want to see what can be done with chicken salad I say give this place a go. read more

A most worthy addition to the Fast Food chains along Dawsonville Hwy. Every version (I've tried many) of their Chicken Salad is excellent. But I keep going back to a Chicken Salad BLT with Jazzy Chicken Salad. Love the sides especially the Broccoli Salad. And the cookie - oh my. Service is also outstanding - always checking on you and willing to make everything right. read more

Our sandwiches were so good we couldn't stop talking about it while we were eating them. I got the fancy Nancy with a side of chopped jalapeños for each bite and my boyfriend got the pimento cheese one with a scoop of chicken. I had a bite and I can confirm that that sht was delicious. The only thing that could have taken this meal to the next level would have been some chips. But at the time I wasn't missing it at all. I just now thought of it. It would have been good. I will one hundred percent be back. The service alone tho is a big reason to go back. So fantastic. Just so super fantastic. read more

Friendly, simple, tasty. Love the decor. It is a little pricy, but everything I've had is good. Hubster likes the buffalo chicken salad, and I can get the Fruity Fran or Fancy Nancy without feeling like I'm making him sacrifice what he likes. read more

Always great food and friendly people there. I would eat this everyday if I could. My cat gives 5 stars for the pimento cheese! I do wish they'd offer low-calorie chicken salad (lite mayo) and pimento cheese (reduced fat cheese), but I still treat myself every few weeks. read more

Just tried this spot with bae. Plenty of options to choose from. I ordered "Olivia's Old South" which is southern traditional chicken salad with sweet pickles & eggs. I had this on a croissant. It was pretty good. It was a suggestion from the cashier so I went with it. Bae had a pimento & cheese blt. He ate 1 half and ate the bacon off the second half. He stated the cheese was too thick. I tasted it. The pimento cheese had great flavor, but I agreed, it was so thick you couldn't enjoy it. Maybe if they coupled it with chicken salad, it would cut it. Overall, we had a great experience. Oh, I had potato soup with mine-blah. Wouldn't order it again. Husband had grape salad as a side:red & white seedless grapes covered in a sweet cream cheese mixture topped with brown sugar and crushed pecans. It was SOOOO GOOD. Didn't care for the employee picking her nails over the soup bowl behind the counter. I told the cashier to tell her to stop lol We'll be back, but won't order soup lol read more

I stopped here on my way home to Dawsonville after work. I ordered a large container of Olivia's old south and a large container of egg salad. I've been wanting some chicken salad for several weeks. I got all the way home to open my bag, pull out the egg salad....and the pimento cheese. How hard is it? The pimento cheese and the chicken salad aren't even the same color! These people need to figure out out. 3 stars because they at least got the egg salad right. read more
