    Korean Styled Fried Chicken
    Julie Anna E.

    The best Korean fried chicken!! The chicken used does look smaller now I will say- but the flavor and crunch is still so amazing that I am docking 0 stars for that The spicy soy garlic packs a nice punch without being overwhelming. If you don't like spicy food then go for just the regular soy garlic Haven't found a place in Pittsburgh that matches the level of this chicken!! They also have great pork kyozas and other side items like crispy calamari

    Tapioca pearls good. Little cramped. Would not be good for crowds one person making drinks. Got a smoothie coffee tapioca drink. Good price.

    Sweet spicy top , bottom soy garlic

    The wings are not heavily battered and they are a average size. My favorite out of all the flavors is the sweet and spicy wings! 20pc+ is good to share between 2 people.

    She's my chick n she's very bubbly

    When I'm in bed I can be Cuddly And fiercer than Bubba Ray Dudley But when I'm up in Pitt This chicken's the sh** So I come to eat at Chick N Bubbly! What to get: Korean Chicken Wings. What not to get: STDs from the gorgeous girls at U Pitt and nasty boys not from U Pitt that come here to pick them up. What else to get: Black Milk Tea with Tapioca Balls. What else not to get: Creepy Staring Syndrome with Blue Balls. I've been coming here for what seems like a decade, although it's not been much more than half of that. It was one of the first places I tried bubble tea when I came to Pittsburgh and I thought it was pretty good back then, but over time I realized that this korean-style boba, while being good, is not the best. I would definitely stick to the regular milk tea, as the other ones are a little on the sweet side. The real star of the show here are the Korean fried chicken wings which are still excellent after all these years. I'm not quite sure how this tiny little place manages to make them so well, but they do. Service can be hit or miss with some friendly people and some not at all friendly people, but based on the wonderful memories I have of this place and the excellent Korean Fried Chicken - which we don't expect in Pittsburgh, especially not for such a cheap price - then based on my memories of bubble tea and all the hot people that come in here and the cute branding and what not, I'll give five stars, but with reservations. For awhile, Chick N B was one of my fave things in Pitt. The bubble tea the girl recommended on my first visit was an original black tea and it was yummy. So creamy and thick and delicate and just the way I like it. It reminded me of the milk tea at Coco, a chain that is especially popular in Flushing NYC. The Korean chicken wings were off the charts good. A bit like Country Sweet (in Rochester) but better. I don't usually like sweet food unless it's a dessert, but these wings had it going on. Plus I appreciated that it cost me under 10 for the chicken and the tea. And that first time I came had lovely service too. Very busy, decent wait time, but so worth it. Awesome experience. I even wrote this about my experience, after my first visit: (1) The creamiest, sexiest, most delicious milk Bubble Tea outside Coco (Queens NYC). Absolutely heavenly. Their other flavours are pretty good too, not to the same degree as the original. (2) Ridiculously delicious sriracha-infused Korean Chicken Wings. This was the first place I ever tried KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) and if this is anything to go by, I'm going to love it long long time. Unfortunately, my experiences since then have been less stellar. The wings are still amazing, and still deserve five stars. But the bubble tea has been inconsistent, and has not been nearly as enjoyable the last few times. I can't figure out what's different. It might be the creamer, it might be the tapioca itself, but also it might be that my bubble tea appreciation and tastes are becoming refined and more picky very rapidly, since I've had so much damn bubble tea lately. In any case, I'd rather get my bubble tea from I Tea Cafe in Shadyside, Sumi's in Squirrel Hill, or Love Yogurt right here in Oakland, these days. Also the service here the last few times has left something to be desired, and the most recent time they kept getting my order wrong. However, I will say that they did (eventually) fix it (begrudgingly) after I forced the issue (and by issue I mean I need to stop using so many parentheses). These days I think the BT tastes more like Kung Fu Tea than Coco. Which is not as good, because of the creamer used. Nevertheless, the BT here is still enjoyable, and the Korean Wings are excellent, as are prices. My typical Friday night includes a random cute girl and a bottle of Champagne. I like to call this concept "Chick N Bubbly." And my gf is pretty awesome. She's a cool chick, and bubbly. And when I say bubbly, I mean this in multiple ways, with emphasis on the word multiple. And by that I mean that when we are, you know, she often, well, basically, and you will not believe this and it should not be written on Yelp and it's very personal and intimate, but I'm going to tell you anyway... she tends to randomly and spontane (You have reached the character limit for this review. Thank you for reading.)

    Chicken Gang Jeong
    Natt A.

    My fiancé and I were in the area looking for a quick bite. We saw this joint and we're super excited as they advertised KFC (Korean fried chicken) -- so we had to try it! We got the Chicken Gang Jeong which were nugget chicken bites deep fried and coated in a korean spicy sauce. The chicken seemed over fried as it was a bit tough and dried out. The sauce was solid full of flavor and spicy, which was the saving grace! For that, it gets a 2.5/5. We also got an order of the Takoyaki, which did take a bit longer to make. However, it was well worth the wait! Hot, crispy outside with a fluffy center with chunks of octopus. This made both of us happy! 4/5 I wish the chicken wasn't the sad part of our quick pit stop, but if we're in the area again we'll probably give it another try.

    Korean Styled Fried Chicken (Small) Lychee Smoothie (with "bubbles")
    Richard S.

    Great food, but consider ordering ahead. The locations is small, but COVID protocols are in place. There is a plastic shield protecting the cashier and a wall of stools and tables prevent you from coming within 6 ft of the cash register. (Downside - it was somewhat difficult to hear the cashier) Because the restaurant is small and much of it is blocked off, you'll wait outside for your order to finish if happen to order in person. Mine took about 15 minutes. I recommend ordering ahead of time, especially during winter. I purchased a small order of Korean style fried chicken. It was 10 pieces of chicken wings, cooked perfectly. Thin, crunchy outer layer with juicy inner meat. You get a choice of sauce and I ordered the sweet and spicy at the recommendation of the cashier. It was very good! Not spicy though, IMO. Also, I ordered a lychee smoothie with Boba. That was fantastic! Highly recommend. If you like wings and boba- definitely check this place out.

    The sweet and spicy fried chicken is legit! Sauce will be pretty sticky on your fingers, so have some wipes handy.

Basically the flavor combinations are endless! I ended up ordering strawberry milk tea with blueberry boba for my kids and they said that it was one of the best bobas that they've had. I ordered the spicy tuna poke bowl. They asked if I wanted it as is or if I needed any customizations which I thought was a nice touch. I kept it as is and really loved it.

Decided to try their Crème Brûlée Milk Tea with Tapioca Boba since I haven't had one in about 2 years and I'm glad I did!

I also want to give a round of applause for their tapioca boba! So many places I've went to have either had it undercooked where it's still semi-hard inside or overcooked to the point where you get a sack of balls all stuck together at the bottom of your drink that don't go up the straw, & nobody wants to suck that hard. These were perfectly chewy! I got the Peach Green Tea w/ Blueberry Boba for somebody else and they also highly enjoyed it!

When I came to Pitt, it became routine that I grabbed a bubble tea once a week before class or as a treat on the weekends. I am always sure to stop in and grab my favorite drink if I am in the area.

I love the bright interior of the shop and that there is inside seating, so you can enjoy your drink inside (especially during the colder months in PA). My go-to order is a black iced tea lemonade with strawberry flavor and lychee popping boba, but there are so many flavor options that you can really mix it up based on your personal preference. Its location on Forbes Ave makes it fairly easy to get to, especially if you are a student living on Pitt's campus. Do yourself a favor and grab a bubble tea if you are ever in the area!
