This place has a nice, down to earth vibe. If you are looking for a bar and live music they have a great area that accommodates several people. They have the entire area decorated with Christmas right now which my husband said reminded him of a hallmark movie. We were served quickly and checked on often. The food was great, my favorite was the mashed potatoes Andy husband enjoyed the okra. We will be back. read more

This week my office held our Christmas party and we decided it was the perfect opportunity to try The Chicken Shack. We arrived early with gifts in hand, and ready for some delicious food, fun fellowship, and a good time. The expectation was somehow exceeded, as our group of 13 had plenty of room to spread out. The wait staff was very attentive and explained the special so well that I couldn't resist. I ordered the loaded baked potato with tri-tips and it was probably the best potato I've ever had. Seriously...it was amazing...and so large I took half of it with me for later. I can't wait to come back and bring my family. 5 stars from me! read more

This was my first time here I am traveling for a few months in Oklahoma. In general people are very friendly in Oklahoma and very service-oriented. Then they have an upstairs area for people to eat and then there's a big outdoor area with a fire pit and a lot of benches kind of giving a park like feel or Campground feel. It's very trendy in a country kind of way. I ordered three chicken tenders with one side and the only one that was pretty much non-fried was their green beans. They were good and the chicken tenders were excellent. The ambiance is fun and comfortable and there are a lot of places to take pictures. I think they should Step Up the way the music is done because it feels kind of random. It feels more like an open mic than it does entertainment. Nothing wrong with the people that were doing it it's just that it didn't have structure. My one complaint about this is that I came with a group of women probably about 35 women and we were downstairs near the stage and the server I felt like she saw the opportunity to make sure she got the tips from this check because we were sitting downstairs and she could have put a couple tables together but she told us that in order to keep her as a waitress we had to go upstairs. That really annoyed me. From then on the service was not so great because they did try hard to get us our drinks and our food they had a lot of Runners doing the food but I don't feel like it was that Timely and it was hot up there and dark. And the waitress really didn't give us great service and to top it off her shift was up and she was trying to get people to pay individual bills before she went home and we had not finished eating yet. This is not the kind of server that I want to have helping me because it felt more about her than it did about us. It seemed kind of selfish that she moved us for her own convenience. I don't think everybody else is that way there necessarily they seem pretty friendly but this was kind of irritating for the first experience. They added an 18% tip because we were a large party but we paid individually. The paying individually is a plus because it always gets messy with a lot of people ordering she asked each one of us what we ordered and made us individual bills. I don't necessarily usually eat fried stuff anymore but the actual chicken tenders were nice and big and very meaty and delicious and the green beans were good so if I had to go back there that's probably what I would get ... they have a lot of different sides like okra and french fries and waffle fries and a lot of good sauces for the chicken. In general I imagine it's a fun place to go I'm just sorry that my first experience there was not great as far as service went. All the people helping our original waitress did their best to get water to the table and our drinks. The original waitress seemed more focused on getting the more expensive drinks up first like alcoholic so it took a while to get my iced tea and I said to her unsweetened and she brought me sweetened so I had to wait even more and I was pretty thirsty. I will give this place another chance either there or another location read more

This place is really disappointing. We had my Sister in laws Memorial here and there were so many things that failed: 1) moved the group at the last minute, we reserved an area that was bumped. 2) tried to overcharge for servings, they brought food that wasn't requested. 3) hotter than hell, we asked for a lower temp, they can't do it. 4) Bartenders are awesome, kudos to those dudes. 5) would not share a microphone to allow a few minutes of speeches. 6) coordinator was difficult, very inflexible and not fun to deal with. Our family selected this place because my sister in law liked it. Will not go there again!!! read more

We went once a long time ago & gave it another try. What a mistake. The memories of the first visit came right back. Expensive and definitely NOT worth it. Had to ASK for water. The food came out after awhile (and several loud barks from a dog in the HUGE section of the restaurant). Food? Hardly any for what we paid for. Did we get refills on out water? No. Did we hear the large dog BARK several times? Yes. Had to ask for a box to bring the leftovers which we didn't eat anyway. Ugh the first time. Our second try? Paid for it again and will NOT be back. read more

Made a trip out to the new spot in Arcadia to place an order to go. First, I appreciate the outdoor area with lots of seating, basketball court, corn hole, and kids play area. Fun spot to just hang out with family and friends. The inside seating area looked spacious, too. Now, the area to place an order to go could use some attention. I had to ring the bell several times before someone took my order and then several times again when I came to pick up my order. I tried calling ahead but no one answered the call. So there's room to grow in this area of customer service. Next, my food was delicious! Chicken, potatoes and spicy Mac (all pictured) is definitely a good choice! 4 stars only because of the service. Environment and food were 5 stars. read more

Met a large group on a week day night and couldn't get service outside so I ordered at the bar. Very nice young lady took order and brought food to us outside. The okra and cornbread side was delicious and cooked to order. The chicken was just okay. The breading on thighs and breast had fallen off or not breaded correctly. read more

Worst service ever from Shay. She acted annoyed that we were even there, not pleasant at all. We ordered a tequila sunrise & one of the daily specials. Out of daily specials & didn't know how to make a tequila sunrise. Out of all sides except for coleslaw & French fries (which were served cold). my order came out & my wife's came later. Shay never came back to the table except to give us the bill, then was irritated because she had to go print the receipt. We've eaten there several times in the past with good food & service, so don't know if the place is going to the dumps or it was just the server & cook on that night. read more

Nice BIG new location! Still working on some things to come. Was slow today but by the time we were leaving lots of business. They have the first part you walk into Air Conditioning. 6 Booths, 8 Big Tables with room for more. Kinda boring area but walk into bar area and you get a whole different vibe. Part gravel floor (not sure the thinking of this) and other is nice flooring. Stage at one end and bigo fans on sides. Long long bar that's very inviting. Looks like there may be an upstairs balcony for music night. Will be great when it cools off. Food seems alittle different than the other location, maybe different cook. We ordered whole chicken with wedges and slaw. A 3 piece chicken strips with baked beans. Pretty good, chicken could use little more seasoning ! Sides are really small with a whole chicken. You will need more than what come with it , so ask for family size. Young Waitress failed to tell us or offer family size. A older lady came and checked on us. Told us as I was complaining....lol Give a Route 66 drive and stop by to eat. You've got the Round Red Barn and POPs near by. read more

Very mediocre experience. Wasn't bad, wasn't anything worth bringing home or recommending. Service was fine, food was eh. Edible, bland, dry. They were out of 10% of the stuff ordered. Im sure the ambience is nice during the weekends. Wouldn't go back. read more

They tried to serve us FOUR lukewarm chickens back to back and lied to us telling it was straight out of the fryer. Brought old cold chicken less than 2 minutes after we ordered it and swore it was fresh and made to order. We're never coming back. $27 for a cold chicken and being lied to after we've been coming here for a decade? I don't think so! read more

Love this place! We ride our bikes here a lot.... The chicken is really good and so are the sides! Definitely recommend for all to try!

This is a fun place to go if you're looking for a casual, small-town experience. The ambiance is wonderful - cozy, inviting, and encourages you to relax and play. The food is good! Great chicken wings with a variety of sauces. The food and service aren't always fast and you don't eat off of real plates so don't plan on this being a fine dining experience. This is family-friendly, with a playground and a huge area to explore - tug of war rope, rocks to climb on, tons of outdoor seating with magical twinkly lights and fire pits when it's cool. Live music. The inside is great too - huge open space with more twinkle lights and a stage for music and a pool table inside. Many nights of the week it gets crowded and the weekends are jam packed with a lively atmosphere. Try the jalapeño cornbread! read more

Love the atmosphere. Great for kids and pets. The food was decent enough. Our only issue was the wait time from when we sat down, ordered, received our food and then wanted to try and order something else and had to go hunting for a waiter. Our initial waitress said that they had food runners and that food maybe took 15-20mins top to receive after placing an order. We spent over 45 mins waiting on bottomless catfish. Took them another 35 + to get a 2nd basket. I want to like this place but be prepared to wait and then wait some more. read more

July 8, 2025. Party of 6. Ordered the Family meal, chicken, coleslaw, beans. Food was good, mostly. The problem was that we were not given plates. When we asked the server where the plates were, she said, as she pointed to our paper placemats, "those are the plates." We were expected to eat coleslaw and beans on a paper placemats. I kid you not. I glanced into the kitchen (by the bathroom) and I saw nobody in the kitchen. Nobody there. Nobody washing dishes, Nobody doing kitchen work. Staffing problem??? It is not ok to expect customers to pay for an $85 family meal and not supply eating utensils. Nothing about expecting customers to eat off a paper placemats is ok. We will not go back. The forks and knives were the little to-go plastic packs. ​ read more

Food was par. Service was par. Ambience. Once live entertainment starts they need to figure out something about the music at the bar. The live entertainment is SO loud. Or maybe everything got louder after they got rid of the crushed limestone but we could not hear each other sitting next to each other. read more

I love the Chicken Shack's atmosphere very festive fun, and then the bands playing he can't help but want to get up and dance. There were 4 in our group,we ordered two fried chickens, okra, coleslaw, potato wedges, and chicken gravy. The fried chicken was moist, juicy and very tasty. All the sides were good mainly for me there potato wedges, dipped in gravy and a few pictures of beer. It was a great night. Customer service was friendly and fast. read more

I don't know what kind of spell this place casts, but the food is mediocre at best. Yesterday there were hundreds of cars here and they seat over 1000! Everything is fried, but menu suggests otherwise. Something between a braised and grilled? No. Fried. Popeye's has better fried chicken. Tasted almost gamey. Breast was dry. How is a fried breast dry unless it's 2nd day. House chips, meh. Pork Chops, also fried, tender but tasteless. I don't recommend "trying it" if you are on a budget. Go to the But her BBQ Stand in Wellston. Now THAT will impress! Sorry Chicken Shack read more

Good food, horrible service! Server basically ignored our table and had to be repeatedly flagged down for refills, to go boxes, the check. When asked why he spent so much time at another table, he replied he was partying with them. He even had the gall to change the tip to 30%! Luckily we caught the theft before we left. Overall terrible experience from a place I used to really enjoy. read more

Looking for some good fried chicken, we decided to venture out a bit east of Edmond to Arcadia and the Chicken Shack. The ambience of the place is pretty cool, resembling that of a Texas BBQ joint or dance hall honestly. Old school wood burning stove in the dining room was nice since it was pretty cold outside when we visited on an early Wednesday evening. It is a good family friendly 'country' atmosphere. There were 5 in our party and we were seated quickly and drink orders were taken. Our server was super nice and attentive. No issues with service as per some of the other reviews. The drinks were super reasonable and came out quickly. We had a bucket of beer and waters. They do have a full bar, although their wine selection is very limited to only the sweet varieties. For dinner a couple of us ordered the 1/2 Bird and side, plus a couple additional sides. There was also an order of chicken tenders, and my wife ordered the crab legs (only on Wed and Sat). Lastly, on this particular day, they had 30 wings for $20 bucks (includes up to 2 tossed sauces or 4 for naked wings) - which is a super deal. The 1/2 Bird chicken was awesome. 1 drumstick, wing, thigh and breast. Their brine is SUPER tasty and the coating is light and crispy. This chicken is up there with the best I've had. Cooked just right and super juicy but not greasy. The chicken tenders were equally good. My wife's 1lb. of crab legs was good, but she noted that next time she'd just have the chicken since it was the star of the night. For sides we had Fries, Green Beans, Mashed potatoes and gravy, Fried Okra and a couple extra gravies - since they were so good. The sides are not very large for $3.95/ea (for the extra ones), but still worth it. Lastly, the chicken wings. We ordered them naked with the sauces on the side. They were good size wings, both flats and drummies and cooked nicely. My only complaint about the wings would be that they were not seasoned at all. Probably not brined beforehand either. So they would have been tastier if they had been tossed in a little season salt or similar. They were good, but would have been awesome if they were coated and cooked the same as the rest of the chicken. All in all - 5 stars. We will be back soon! read more

If you enjoy Eischens but can't get over to Okarche then this should be your go to for an old school breaded unhealthy ish chicken source. Not saying it's the same but it's the closest thing nearby for sure. Our server was polite and attentive but maybe a little bit timid in demeanor making him seem a bit stand-offish but he got the job done in a timely manner which the food came out quicker than expected and we needed to let the larger pieces cool for a bit before eating. I will say if there is any suggestion on my part it is that some verbal warning on the beans spice wouldn't hurt. I still would have ordered them but I would have been more prepared. Very tasty but also very spicy All in all this was a really nice experience and I don't recall the total cost but it was somewhere around $65 for a family of four with some leftover read more

I was out of the city doing some research and got hungry so I popped open the trusty Yelp app and started looking. We decided on trying the chicken shack. When we pull up there is a ton of motorcycles which I love so I was excited. When went inside and it said to seat ourselves so we found a table we like and sat down. There was my wife, myself and my service dog Lucy. So we sat there for probably 10 minutes until what I am guessing was the manager told me I needed to move outside because they don't let dogs inside. Now if Luci wasn't wearing her vest and stuff I can perfectly understand, however she was swearing her bright pink vest clearly labeled service dog. She had an all of her required paperwork on her and her ID card clearly showing. So I'm not sure why but we were forced to move or leave. I probably should have left but I didn't know the area and where another food place might be (turns out pops was right down the road). Anyway we go in and the manager guy did bring Luci some water which she just stared at. My wife and I ordered the 3 piece meal with one side. I got green beans and she got Mac and cheese. The chicken was ok. It had a light batter so it wasn't all breading and no chicken and the green beans were pretty good. The Mac and cheese not so good. It was like someone boiled elbow noodles and this tossed them in a cheese flavor packet. It was super dry and sucked all the moisture out of your mouth. All in all the food was ok but you get an automatic 1 star when you tell me I HAVE to sit somewhere I don't want. I also think you should reimburse me for my time and expense because Luci had to take a bath because she was covered in dirt and dust from the gravel floor. So wanting for anyone with a service animal you will have to sit outside and your animal is going to get filthy so be ready to wash afterwards. read more

I'm not much of a fried chicken person but this place could make me one. I came with a group so we shared various things. The chicken was good, not amazing, but still flavorful.

The Chicken Shack is my current favorite place to eat. Let's start with the food... OMFG SO F'N GOOD! The fried chicken rivals the world famous Eischens. It's hot, fresh, and oh so delicious. The sides are massive and also insanely delicious. The fried okra is my personal favorite but the French Fries, baked beans, and Mac n Cheese are also great. Now for atmosphere... it's really cool! It's a massive building with lots of character and they have an awesome outdoor area with live music on the weekends and a Playset for kids! It's a great time! read more

Worst service seen. Sat down with another couple and all ordered at same time. The other couple got their order and ate while we waited 40 minutes to be served luke warm chicken.

I gave them 2 stars for the chicken. That's really it. The chicken was good. Everything else.... was awful. I can appreciate a sauce with a little spice like the sriracha one, but not if I can't get my glass refilled. Our service was awful. We also tried the shrimp and crab. Cause why not? It sounded amazing. However for $25/lb for each, I expected to have crab crackers and purged shrimp. I didn't expect to try to be opening crab legs with the plastic utensils or having to send a server on a wild goose chase for what might be the only real fork in the building. One of us ordered the shrimp as a meal with a side, but quickly lost appetite upon realizing they were not purged. I feel like we must have been in a to go, twilight zone hell. Even the ketchup wasn't bottled. Kinda hard to give multiple kids ketchup and eat your food while it's still hot when it's literally in mini packets. Just take your order to go and save your sanity. read more

Chicken Shack - Chicken Wings Near Me - Arcadia, Oklahoma

I LOVE The Chicken Shack. It is such a fun, family friendly, and country style of a place. The chicken is delicious. Don't come at me but I think they're better than the popular fried chicken places like Eishens, Half-time, Chicken Foot, and the Drum Room. They're located out in Arcadia. It's a huge place and you can sit indoor or outdoor. They have live music on the weekend and a huge playground for kids in the back. Their restroom is huge compared to the old location. So many stalls and places to wash your hands. The bar is huge and you can sit there too if desired. Their section of beer is pretty impressive. Ordering will take a long time because they said they're working on getting new staffs and especially on the weekend when they're full, it will take hours to get your food. If the weather is nice it is not a bad wait. I haven't been to the new location during the winter but I hope they get some of the outdoors heater. During the summer they have fans and the water misting hoses which helps keep you cool. My personal favorite is the whole fried chicken, a pound of gizzards, fried okra, and fries. Their onion rings, cole slaw, and potato salad were not my favorite. They also have a bunch of dipping sauce you can order and try. On Wednesday there is crab legs. In addition they also have tenders, wings, and ribs which I have not tried. This is such a fun place to eat and so fun for a big group. Bring your whole family and your kids. You can even bring pets for the outdoor seating. Go! You won't regret it. read more

This was our first time. The sides had the potential to be great but they were either completely room temp or leftovers from last night. The chicken was pretty good. It was a bit salty. We thought maybe if we come at a later time the sides might be freshly prepared? We will give it another try at some point. read more

I had to ask two times for someone to take my order after waiting for 20+ minutes. When someone did finally come to take our order she made it clear that we were a burden to her. She was upset that we were splitting the bill because then she had to take multiple cards. When she brought the "caddy" with ketchup and utensils she said "this is the caddy? that has ketchup and whatever" then tossed it on the table. No one came to check on us. The boys bringing out food were in just as bad of a mood. The food was good quality but seasoning was lacking. It would be neat place to hangout but the service just wasn't there. The two at the sno come shack were very nice!! read more

First time to visit and was impressed with the facility, good service, pretty good food if you are a fan of fried. A little too salty for my taste but definitely edible.
