Crown Fried Chicken Pro's: It's open late. Great for snacking or munchies. There's so many menu items to choose from. It's cheap. Crown Fried Chicken Con's: Cheesy looking interior. Many food items stay in a food warmer. Ice cream for the shakes is often old and frost bitten. Misc.:This particular Crown Fried is on one of the most filthy, bum filled parts of the Fulton/Franklin Ave strip. Be hyper aware of your surroundings when entering and leaving. They have stepped things up and accept credit and debit cards now. On my most recent visit, I ordered a cheeseburger with a side of onion rings. It was edible. Those pickle slices though, were some of the biggest, thickest I've ever seen. That's not a good thing. My food was blah and basic but I was no longer hungry after scarfing it down. read more

Crown Fried Chicken - Wrapped up burger. Onion rings. - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

At 4 am its great to have this hard working crew ready to give you anything you crave. I am a fan of gyro's, and to that I will say they add a bunch of onions, and grilled peppers; which is not my scene. I like a clean fresh gyro, so I order the gyro salad. Problem fixed. Ask for white sauce as the dressing or they will offer you French dressing. Love hard working Americans making it happen. Thank you! The space is whatever, i doubt the tables are often cleaned but we all know what this is about. read more

Crown Fried Chicken is place that only exists in my heart around midnight. I was staying in Brooklyn last week and after attending Monday Night Raw at the Barclay's Center I was in need of some food and that food needed to be delivered. After checking the app and not coming up with many options, Crown Fried Chicken popped up and saved the day (well, night). I ordered a 3 piece fried chicken combo with mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. The fried chicken was decent, and basically what you expect from a place like Crown. The breading was crunchy and the meat was on the darker sides but it was alright none the less. The macaroni and cheese was pretty bad. It was kind of the equivalent of eating Mac and cheese that was cooked, left on the counter, reheated, and then served a second time. Would I eat again? Nah The mashed potatoes were only mildly better then the macaroni and cheese. It was a clumpy (not in a good clumpy way) and lacked any real flavour. Overall, Crown Fried Chicken serves it's late night hunger fix and does a decent enough job at it. I probably wouldn't make this my first option for a quick bite but it's always going to be in the back of my head. read more

Crown Fried Chicken - Fried chicken delivery. - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Food comes in a plastic bag with a brown bag inside of it that contains the meal, included is napkins, fork, knife ketchup. For the food I ordered the sweet potato fries & gyro with lamb & chicken with a brisk iced tea on the side. Let's keep in mind people this was a late night meal for me. I was out and needed to grab some filling I knew was going to be good. The gyros here are always good so you'll never miss with that & sweet potato fries are just a gift from god and if any place messes that up they need to be shut down. The service is ok, food is ready in about 10-15 minutes, fairly clean on the inside. I recommend this spot. read more

If you are passing by and are craving a quick oily snack than this is the perfect place for you. The place itself is nothing special, just a standard crown fried chicken franchise. The line however moves very quickly. I am vegetarian so all I could order was the fries and I also ordered a corn. The fries were lovely and crispy though was a little oily for my taste but that's OK. The corn however was delicious and well seasoned. Overall an ok franchise. read more

Crown Fried Chicken - Fries - Fast Food Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We got that urge for fried stuff so we decided to hit up this spot, just knowing we would regret it later. NOPE!... It was delicious. The proprietor offered to fry us something fresh instead of just picking from the heat table. We generously accepted, and 20 minutes later we were rewarded with great food. Could others have a totally different experience here? I'm certain of it. But just talking about our experience which was pretty darned good. read more

I'm trying the hot wings as I've learned that at most franchise like these hot simply means seasoned. Also trying the BBQ wings and curly fries. The hot wings are seasoned alright, it's well seasoned with SALT. It tastes like that's the only ingredient they've used. The BBQ is "better" a sweet sauce is sort of masking the salty taste. Their curly fries are soft and squishy and I'm here wondering if I ordered diabetic mashed potato??? No disrespect to the queues of people I regularly see here but your doctors are so gonna love yah! No bueno. The place is clean and the many food posters gives it a playroom feel. The guy at the counter was VERY nice and he greeted other customers by name as they came in. I especially loved his interaction with one little girl. ONLY for his customer service skills and shop cleanliness Crown Fried gets 3 stars! The End. read more

The food was good especially the fried chicken it taste like home I would recommend this to anybody in the area or out

I love crown chicken. Best easy accessible food in Brooklyn. But today is a snow storm and I can't leave my home. The fact that the guy answered the phone and said "do you see outside ? We can't deliver" I was like "well then you guys shouldn't be open. You're not gonna make any money" they need to fire whoever said that. The ESL speaker Could've been a little more respectful. One time I ordered a pizza and the delivery guy did not bring change for a 20. He was expecting a 10$ too, which wasn't gonna happen. But I did give 2 dollar tip because he left the pizza and went to the store to get change and come back. so I guess it's okay now read more

1 in the morning. Maybe 2. Who knows. A few drinks in me. No food. Instead of dealing with the transfer to the G, I just take the C all the way to Clinton/Washington. Through the turnstile, up the stairs. Thank God for legs. The bright lights of Crown Fried Chicken greet me. Summons me. I do not resist. "I just want some fried chicken and biscuits. With lots of hot sauce." The man behind the sheet of Polymethyl methacrylate cuts me a deal: Two wings and a biscuit for some change. "Mad hot sauces, please." He hooks it up. Why isn't everyone a Saint like him? Now the only thing between me and my Crown Fried Chicken food consumption is the distance from Fulton to Willoughby on Washington. Maybe a .5 mile. I run. By Greene Ave I think my lungs have collapsed. It's painfully clear that the right lung has sacrificed itself. It hurts a lot. But I keep running. I cannot let my right lung goto waste for no reason. Now I've a second cause to fight for. At Lafayette Ave, the seemingly crying voice inside is begging me to stop running. I refuse to be told what to do. I have in my possession two wings and a biscuit that I am determined to consume ASAP. "Do it for the right lung! (And the hot sauce.)" I consider stopping at the benches just past Lafayette, but I spot a homeless dude camped out already. "Also," I remind myself, "I'd need a cold beverage to go with my Crown Fried Chicken Feast. RUN!" read more

Not gonna lie, I showed up at like 4am after a whole lotta cocktails. I placed 2 separate orders, starting off with a simple fried chicken leg. It was crispy, not too dry and surprisingly not soaked in grease. Foolishly thinking something else might be open at that hour I left and wandered around a bit, with no luck. Crown was definitely the only place open nearby at that time. I headed back into Crown and bought some chicken wings for some poor guy begging for food outside. I still feel bad for the guy. Sometimes you can just see despair in someone's eyes and you could definitely see it in his. Anyway, he was thankful for the wings and dashed away as soon as I delivered them. By this time, a girl had sauntered in and the three guys eating at three separate tables were jockeying for her attention. Their game was comically bad and the girl was having fun shooting them down, so I decided to order a gyro pita and enjoy the entertainment. The gyro pita was fine. I mean, at least as good as you'd expect from a fried chicken place at 4:30 in the morning. The guy behind the counter seem really pleased with my manners and was very friendly after the first "thank you" came out of my mouth. The friendly service and the entertainment might get me to come back, to what is otherwise a place where I would never eat. (No telling what factory farm that chicken comes from and they're certainly not advertising it.) read more

Wow why all the negative reviews? This fried chicken is better at any upscale restaurant hands down and it's cheap.....win win!

I have been here many times, typically after de-boarding the C or A train very late in the evening/early in the morning. I only have purchased "hot" chicken wings. I have had the fries on several occasions. The wings are not "hot" (read: they are hot as in actual temperature, as they are made when you order them, but they are not "hot" in flavor at all), but my trusty bottle of franks cures that. The wings are neither large, nor are they particularly "meaty". They are, however, chicken wings and I enjoy chicken wings late at night. The fries were soggy. Crown is one of the few places you can procure wings in this neighborhood at these late/early hours. Also, the dudes in there are nice, so, 3 outta 5. They serve pizza now. I have never had it. read more

Things to keep in mind: I was sober and received this food as takeout, so I'm not sure what the place itself is like. But this was amaaaazing. I had the chicken w/ hot sauce, their dinner rolls, sweet potato fries, and mini potato cups. I was coming buckets. This place is by far the best fast-food chicken joint I have ever been to. read more

Really, really, really salty friend chicken. Cheap and fast. Open late. You can find better friend chicken near by. Really, I bet it would be awesome after about 10 cocktails but for me stone cold sober it really was nothing remarkable and honestly was pretty bland other then salty. read more

This is a fantastic local business that is staffed by very nice caring people that do the absolute best that they can with what they have to offer. The food is absolutely fantastic for the price point and the experience is exponentially unique. Everybody should have a meal either at or from here! read more

This place rocks, I don't care what anyone says. It seems like this joint is just always open. I've been told it does close at some point, i just have yet to see it. One thing i will say is, they sure do give you A LOT of fries with the sandwiches, not sure if that's a bad thing. Just know that you have to bring your eating pants when you're getting food from here, because you're going to get a lot of food in exchange for not a lot of money. Also, pizza is $1, and good! read more

I ordered a Pizza through this place on the Push For Pizza app and the food never came. I called the store with my order and confirmation number. The person on the phone was very rude with me and not willing to listen to my order and confirmation number. Then he proceeded to hang up on me. If you would like terrible service then please place your orders at Crown Friend Chicken. read more

I love Crown Fried Chicken. I was a regular when I lived in Philadelphia, and I'm hoping to be a regular here. The guy is friendly enough, although you do have to speak up since he's across a pretty wide counter. It's a standard Crown Fried - maybe a little less greasy than what I'm used to. I'm not complaining at all. My favorites are the combo chickens and the 6 piece hot wings. Conveniently located, not too far from my apartment, and close to the subway - so when I get off after a good night of drinking, drunk munchies is just right there. read more

It says Halal chicken all over outside, yet their spicy chicken sandwich is not halal. That was very misleading. It seems like all the other chicken is halal, so are the cheeseburgers. The quality of the food isn't anything to write home about. But it's definitely a decent place to grab food. read more

I have a soft spot for this place. It's probably open the latest of all the restaurants in the nearby vicinity (I want to say at least 3 or 4) and is great if you have a craving for greasy fried food. The staff is always nice, and it's super cheap. My favorite things to get are the fried whiting fish, the plain cheese pizza, and chicken wings. The whiting fish is always really hot and crispy. The pizza crust is a bit bland, and it's not like the best pizza ever but it's nice and cheesy and a solid slice for $1. Once I got the mozzarella sticks and those were surprisingly decent too. My one word of warning is DO NOT GET THE FRIED CHICKEN if you're getting anything other than wings - it's under-seasoned and bland, and you don't have the high crispy fried skin to meat ratio to cover for it. Bonus story for why you should give Crown Fried Chicken a chance: my dad and little sister were in town, and they got in really late so it was midnight by the time they got to my apartment. We didn't want to venture out of the neighborhood, and the family wanted pizza. I suggested Crown Fried Chicken, but dad was being kind of a snob and was like "Nuh uh." All the other restaurants in the area were closed, and all the pizza options on Seamless were closed except for one that seemed overpriced and didn't even have that great of reviews. After some more fruitless searching everyone was hungry and I was like, screw it I'm just going to go over and buy some pizza from CFC and you don't have to eat it. And of course they ate it and thought it was surprisingly good and a couple of days later my sister was requesting "Fried Chicken Pizza." And it only cost 8 dollars for a large pizza which is really tough to beat. read more
