We had food from Chicken Salad Chick several times on this trip to Tennessee, which was the perfect thing to eat when it's so darn hot outside. I would go for the more fruity flavors, while my spouse went for the more savory ones. Every meal we got was yummy and satisfying. It made us hope for locations to open up at home (Long Island, NY)... and it does look like they may expand into the northeast, so that's good! Friendly service, good food and quick! It's a great local chain we enjoy when away from home... and a little healthier than other fast food joints, but just as tasty. read more

I love this restaurant. It's one of my favorite chain restaurants and I crave their food frequently. This location historically has been brilliant; friendly staff, quick service, and consistently delicious food. Unfortunately the last three times I've visited this restaurant, in the past two months I have been incredibly disappointed. The first of three visits was the last time I actually got to eat a meal. The staff were short, flustered, and had poor communication with each other. It felt like a manager who didn't care trained a bunch of teens who didn't know what to do because they didn't get trained. Fast forward to the 2nd to last trip and I order then wait 15 mins only to be told they are out of the food I ordered. No big deal. But when I went to get a refund, no one knew how to do it and the manager was gone. I waited at least another 15 minutes on the manager to come and preform the refund. Lastly I walk into order and they are out of everything again. They have one more chance to serve me and I'll never return which will be so sad. read more

They were out of a bunch of stuff when we came but it was still good. I was going to get the classic, but it was out and it was actually fortune because I tried the Lauryn's Lemon Basil and it was delicious! My husband loved this place and my kids did too so it was a win for us since all of us enjoyed it. They did forget to give the girls cookies with their meals but they gave them to them when they went up to ask. The ambiance was fine too. We were seated in the corner and I wiped off the table with a wipey and it was fine. read more

I've been going here for lunch for a couple years. The chicken salad is always good. The bread is fresh and the soup is also very good. The lettuce and tomatoes could be fresher and less skimpy. The drive- thru is slow. I recommend ordering on their app. and stepping inside to pick up. read more

Sister lunch date at Chicken Salad Chick was just what we needed! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. We loved the Jalapeño Holly croissant and scoops of Sassy Scotty, Lauryn's Lemon Basil, and Southwest Señorita -- all so delicious! Great food and friendly service! read more

Good service and good food, a place that's fast food / drive thru but semi healthy .. I always get the fancy Nancy or fruity Fran .. never tried the pimento but it looks good as well. read more

This place is usually delicious and a nice break from greasy fast food (even if ridiculously over priced) but today they were out of over half the menu, including their basic Classic Carol! I don't leave reviews often but this really peeved me, why bother even opening at that point? How do you run out of half your menu on a random Friday before dinner? read more

This place is amazingly good and feels very healthy. Also, it's not just for chicks. I'm a dude and don't think the place you eat at should challenge your masculinity. They were out of a few items so we tried the Lauryn's lemon basil scoops and broccoli salad side and both were delicious. We actually tried this place because they were offering a free meal for veterans on Veterans Day, but have come back several times since then because the food is so good. read more

What a great lunch stop! The lunch combo with a sandwich or scoop of chicken salad of your choice, salad or soup .. I got a HOLY JALAPEÑO BLT.. on the best wheat bread ever ... too soft to toast (my opinion)... amazing.. along with a poblano soup.. the best.. both of them! Service was great and the cafe itself its clean and nice.. order up front and it's brought to you! They also have a selection of pimento cheeses with chicken or without, original... it was good still not what I had as a kid‍.. needs more of a pimento flavor, my opinion! A must go back to and a must try if youve not yet! Huge chicken salad selection, generous servings! And finished up by a lovely little frosted butter cookie read more

I love chicken salad chick. No further comments. It's so good and fresh every time. Worth the 30 minute drive there and back.

I stopped by Chicken Salad Chick on a Saturday at 5:45 PM, well before their posted closing time of 8:00 PM. However, a laminated sign on the door said they had run out of chicken salad and would reopen "tomorrow." Not only was it disappointing that the main item was unavailable so early, but the laminated nature of the sign suggests this may be a recurring issue. To add to the confusion, the sign also stated they would reopen the next day--Sunday--but to my knowledge, this location is typically closed on Sundays. As I was leaving, I noticed two employees behind the building, and at least one of them was smoking. This, paired with the lack of product availability, didn't leave a great impression. Even if they were open the next day, I wouldn't be inclined to return based on this experience. read more

They sold their product at the hospital I work at, we all tried. It was double the price from in their restaurant. It was okay but to be honest I like my chicken salad better. I like chunks not chicken paste. Sandwiches were uninviting just salad on a croissant no lettuce or tomatoes. Boring. They are no longer in our cafeteria. Did not move. read more

I've been wanting to come here for the longest, but I guess my husband doesn't love me enough (check the picture of the restroom sign). I finally did and everything was delicious. The Jalapeño Holly Chicken Salad wasn't spicy enough for me, so I added some hot sauce. It's starting to get cooler out which means perfect weather for soups! I ordered the Loaded Potato Soup...it was cheesy and had big chunks of potatoes with each spoon full. read more

I eat here often but this was a meal for my home bound aunt and was terrible. There was hardly any chicken salad on the croissant and the grape salad was a mess. The Mac and cheese was very good and the taste was good but the packaging wasn't and quantity wasn't worth the cost.We will continue to eat here as we love the chicken salad but may not do another Uber Eats order from here. read more

Chicken Salad Chick - Where's the chicken????? - Chicken Shop Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Every time we drive by we notice a line for the drive thru. So we decided to try it. They have 12 different types of chicken salads, We ordered the classic salad with a scoop of Classic Carol chicken salad on top. The salad was a very fresh basic salad with greens, tomato and cucumber. The Classic Carol chicken salad was fresh and delicious. Mac n cheese and chicken tortilla soup was very good too. Drive thru was fast and employee at the window was super nice and double checked our order (very much appreciated!) I look forward to trying the chicken salad BLT signature sandwich and more soup. Tip: If ordering to go ask them to put the tortilla strips for the chicken tortilla soup on the side so they don't get soggy. read more

Food is very good but overpriced. Also, I guarantee this is the slowest drive-thru you've ever been to. Not sure if that's a customer or employee issue but it's definitely the worst thing about CSC. read more

First off, I have never been a chicken salad person. I don't make it and I don't order it. But I heard some good things about the place and decided to stop and try it. I have been 3 times since my initial visit!, about 2 months ago. I love this place ! Every time I was greeted with a smile and great attitude. I inquired about different items and they always took time to go over them. Each time I have had the Jalapeño Holly chicken salad - I love it! I've had it as a sandwich and just a scoop. For sides I have had: dumpling soup - another item I usually don't ever get. But it was raining that day and soup sounded good. It was very good!! My husband liked it too!! Broccoli salad - which was great!! And how can you go wrong with getting a free little cookie for dessert each time?!! The cookie is awesome!! I'm glad I tried it!! read more

I have attempted to do my catering orders with this store several times. I picked up in Knoxville for a meeting in Cleveland Tennessee. When I called the store, asking if I could add a side salad to the order for the person in the group who is a vegetarian, I was told by Amanda in corporate that I would have to contact the store directly for that request since it couldn't be added to the catering order. When I spoke to manager at the store I was informed I that I would need to do a separate order when I picked up my catering order and "They should have some already made when you arrive". When I arrived at the restaurant, I had to get the employees attention that had her back turned as she was eating. Once I arrived at my destination, it was discovered that I was missing a side from each each of the box lunches. read more

I wanted so badly to like this place. I've driven by for years and just never stopped. I LOVE chicken salad, so on my lunch break I drove through. For my first time I stuck with the basics - classic chicken salad on white bread with a side of mac n cheese. You guys...the white bread was hard, like biting through a hard sponge. The chicken salad was ok, but very plain, just chicken and mayo - no lettuce/tomato, I guess you have to ask. They forgot my side, so I just had the sandwich and a pickle. It was $10 and not worth $2 for what I received. If they can't get the basics right, how do you have any business?! I wanted to like this place so badly! Now I wish I got my money back. read more

I have literally never been to this restaurant that something isn't broken... I don't come here very often, but when I do, you can bet they're having some kind of problem. I came about a month ago and you couldn't get anything except pre-prepared items because the refrigerator was out. I came today and you can't get anything warmed up. You can't get your bread toasted! Why? Because they don't have air condition! Several months ago, they didn't have a toaster and that lasted for months! I really don't get it! And another thing you can put money on... The drive-through is slow as molasses! It's pretty good food, but it takes forever to get in and out and it's very likely that will be something that you can't get on their menu due to multiple issues. read more

This has become one of my favorite places to eat once I found what I liked, LOL. The first time coming they had just opened and had kinks to work out which they did. I also had to try different things to figure out what I liked and so glad I did because they do everything well. Their customer service is great, and they are always friendly. My favorite is the Cranberry Kelli on a croissant with a scoop of spicy pimento and a side of their broccoli salad, and a side of the grape salad. Their food is fresh and healthy for the most part (the little sugar in the broccoli salad or brown sugar in the grape salad are well worth the guilty pleasure ;-) ). read more

Wow, chicken salad, cheap, easy and how is a whole chain restaurant based around it?? I'm amazed. But a friend wanted to try it, so I went with her trying to have an open mind. They have a LOT of flavors, but don't get the basic. It's so bland! Even the fancy one was bland, just with a few grapes added. Drinks are coke products, iced tea and what looks like fresh lemonade is Minute Maid, just in a better dispenser. The croissant did not seem fresh. It was spongy. Probably a few months old carted in on a truck. I tried my friends "grape salad" and was repulsed - it was sweet and tasted like the milk in it was spoiled. My side seasonal salad which cost $4 extra was tiny and wilted with browned apples on it. Other side options included mini bags of chips. And how much was lunch?? $12 FOR CHICKEN-FRICKEN SALAD! Overall, it was very disappointing. Another mass marketed chain restaurant for Knoxville residents that like that fair. (THERE IS BETTER!!) Warning: I'm not their target market. Most of the people who were eating there were grey hairs. A few exceptions, but not many. read more

I love chicken salad, so naturally when I saw this restaurant getting ready to open I was super excited. Unfortunately, when I tried it, it wasn't that great. It's not terrible, just nothing special. I got one scoop of the Classic Carol and a scoop of Olivia's Old South to see which one I liked best and to be honest, they tasted pretty much the same. The broccoli salad was good and the small cookie that came with it was a nice way to end the meal, but overall, none of those things are enough to bring me back. The drive through employees were friendly enough, nothing above and beyond, but fine. I hope this restaurant does well. I think it's a great idea, it's just not for me. On a side note, getting in and out of this restaurant's parking lot during peak lunchtime is the worst. read more

I tried this place for the first time the other day and had an overall very pleasant dining experience; however, the chicken salad didn't wow me. I ordered the Cranberry Kelli and my mom ordered the Fruity Fran. Both chicken salads were good, but we couldn't really tell the two flavors a part when we sampled each one. Although I wasn't very impressed with the chicken salad, the service was wonderful! I visited on a Tuesday afternoon during the lunch rush and despite the big line, we were able to order quickly and we didn't wait long to receive our food. The staff was very friendly and our order came out perfect. This place gives you a free cookie with your order, which I think is a really nice touch. Although I held higher expectations for the food, I enjoyed my experience here and would be happy to visit again and try a different chicken salad flavor! read more

Very unhappy with todays food. I went through the drive thru and they were rushed and gave me less than the usual serving of side grape salad almost forgot my drink. With 8 grapes and forgotten crackers it was not worth the stop. Chicken salad chick is a favorite of mine but was disappointed by this. read more

Chicken Salad Chick - Fancy Nancy. No crackers and 8 grapes. For $12 with drink - Chicken Shop Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Food was so good and fresh! All the sides were delicious. Their chicken salads are all good and their egg salad is great also.

I tried to interview with them Early in the morning. No one said I would need to pick up 50-60 lbs. I believe the "person" was too into her surgery to be bothered with me. I was told to Not Come Back! No worries there. I originally was going for cashier, not kitchen. Done that, been there. I don't believe I was given a fair shake on this. How much more do I need to day. Alcove originally kept $40 for a background check. read more

Tried this place today. Very friendly and prompt service. They have numerous types of chicken salad. Very good. I'll be back!

Chicken salad chick is my FAVORITE lunch place! I swear I'm addicted to it! I always get my food so quickly! The only thing I have been sad about lately is they took away the wraps (not this location's fault obviously). They had also not had a/c in their kitchen for a while now and force you to do a grab and go instead of the meal deal. I'm a bit sad about that because it's more expensive and I can't get Mac and cheese but I know it's only temporary. read more

We tried their food in the beginning of November and loved it the chicken salad is wonderful. We came back on 11/30/20 because of a promotion they were having. Whatever you bought on 11/30/20 you could bring your receipt back on 12/31/20 and get the same meal for free. My husband and I both work during the day so we went for dinner on 11/30/20 at 5:56pm, so naturally on 12/31/20 we went for dinner at 4:41pm, only to find out that they closed early on 12/31/20 of the free meal, and they would be closed for the next 2 days. When they reopened I called the store and spoke to Steven, to come in to get the promotion but I was told that corporate wouldn't honor the discount. When I asked why they didn't tell us that dinner would not be available on 12/31/20 when we made our purchase on 11/30 I was told that corporate didn't tell them the schedule for that day at that time. I have emailed corporate and the store was going to contact corporate and get back to me but I have not heard back from anyone yet. I guess "corporate" decided that too many meals were sold on 11/30/20 and they didn't want the loss to the company of free meals so they closed early. This is bad business to not hold up promotions that your company is offering. read more

the best chicken salad ever! Great customer service and yummy food

Ok this place has some issues. Every time I come they mess up my order (7 times now). I'm so done this will be the last time I ever come. The staff is rude on top of that. Yeah the food is good but I'm so fed up with the staff. Just take your business elsewhere honestly. The Cuban deli in halls is pretty good if you are looking for a new restaurant to try. read more

I absolutely love this place. The food is Delicious and the staff is always so nice! I love the lemon basil with pasta and grape salad on the side! read more

This is good chicken salad, but most people can make good chicken salad. It's not the best chicken salad I've ever had. By that standard, my Mimi should have her own restaurant. But also. My Mimi should prob have her own restaurant in general, yes. So anyway, the standard "classic carol" is pretty much shredded chicken breast, Mayo, diced celery, and prob some light seasoning. The menu seems to use classic as a base and then adds flavor. You want spicy? You want fruity? You want...BBQ flavored? They have all these options. The food isn't poorly executed or anything. It just isn't that...exciting. Or crave-able. And it's a little pricey for what it is. I will say, great job on the fruit cup. This isn't your standard underripe honeydew. It's strawberries and grapes and other yumminess. Also. The grape salad is on point. It's like church potluck style sweet cream cheese dressing with grapes folded in. I'm not sure I've seen this on other menus, but it should be. ALSO. Can we talk about the buttercream cookie? Hello, soft little buttercream cookie, you just added a full star to this review because I started with 2!!! read more

Placed an online order for pickup. Checked in when we arrived which was when my order was due to be ready. 10 minutes later I checked in again. 15 minutes goes by and I call the restaurant to let them know I've checked in and still haven't seen my food come out. The employee who answers says they will be right out. I've now been sitting in the parking lot for 22 minutes and I still don't have my prepaid order. Lobby is closed and doors are locked. Drive through is doing a steady business but my order was never brought out. Called a second time and the employee told me he brought the order out and couldn't find me. My husband and I both watched the building for 30 minutes and no employee ever walked outside with an order. Horrible. Find somewhere else to eat. read more
