Hands down the best wings in the United States of America !!!! The fish sandwich is to die for! All sauces are made from scratch . I have had my fair share of wing establishments and this place can't be beat ! Mr. Janey has built an empire ! read more

I have heard a lot of good things about Crunchies and Munchies so I decided to try it out on Super Bowl Sunday. The chicken wings were on the small side. It's not fair to compare this place to wing joints up North. So I won't. We got the Xtra hot wings sauce and I would say the sauce was just hot. However, the sauce is better than Anchor Bar. Overall, I would rate this place 3.5 stars. The staff seemed friendly and the restaurant looked clean. I will come back and try the Thermal Meltdown next time. This place is worth checking out. read more

Never disappoints!!! By far the best boneless wings ever. Large with not much breading like so many do. Cooked perfectly, flavor was amazing. Highly recommend!! read more

I'm not one to complain typically but today I've had enough of poor service. I've been a patron of Crunchies & Munchies Inc. since it was in a plaza on the corner of NE 14th & 25th in Ocala in the early 1990's. Honestly, we order there at least once a month. Today I placed an order as I typically do. When I got home with the order, it wasn't what we ordered. Our order is always the same, we order 50 wings. Half we order are Hot, and half are mild. When I checked the order we literally got 50 plain wings. Their wings have always been absolutely drenched in sauce. I called to speak to the restaurant and the girl that answered the phone was very quick to get me to the manager. I explained to the manager what I was looking at. I heard her ask an employee while I was on the phone about the order and he responded that he thought that someone else was going to put the sauce on the wings. I explained to her that I could send her the photos of the food. After I sent her the photos her response to me was to bring the wings back and they would then make it right by cooking up a new batch or I could just give her my name and she was allowed to give me 10% off my next order. She said that this was the best she could do as direct ted by the owners of the restaurant. So my choices were to get 10% off my next order or drive back 20 minutes and wait on a new order. Shame on Crunchies & Munchies Inc. for charging me $65 for wings, giving me the wrong product that I paid for then offering me up to waste probably an additional hour of my day or offering me 10% off. They will not get any additional patronage from me. For the group of people that think it's about getting 10% off your next order or getting something free was the idea you are all completely wrong. The idea is that as a consumer you pay for something and you expect it to be correct the first time. If they were truly concerned about making the order right they would've cooked a new order and then brought it to me and not wasted any more of my time or money. Being laissez-faire about a topic and ever so quick to offers a discount is not the answer. That shows a routine of complacency and the willingness to be agreeable to deliver subpar products or service. read more

Ordered a Fish Sandwich on a bun with a side order of coleslaw. The Fish has a crispy batter seasoned perfectly with a generous portion tender fish filet and add your condiments and I had fresh lettuce, tomato, great pickles added. It was excellent! I ordered a side coleslaw that was very fresh and my favorite of all the others in town. Too many other restaurants are sugary sweet but theirs has a slight sweet with fresh veggies! Perfect meal and the Best part under .10.00! I highly recommend! CeeGee read more

Well, once again, we wanted wings, but didn't have many choices, so we opted (reluctantly) for Crunchies and Munchies. We ordered 30 wings, extra crispy and fries, and I told them "please, no extra crispy fries" So, I went to pick them up and still not allowed to enter the lobby- drive thru only (?). My order was $47 and they asked me if I wanted to tip, (well, I haven't tasted the food yet - was my thought), but I declined. So I got them home, and although the wings were done, they certainly weren't crispy, but better than soggy (gross!). And the fries, looked bad. Only a handful were plump, cooked, but not over cooked. I doubt we'll be back anytime soon. It really is disappointing, because we want to like them, but their product quality has declined in the last few years to the point that it's really not good, and at almost $50, I can certainly get better food somewhere else. read more

Crunchies & Munchies is an Ocala institution. Drive-thru joint with the best wings & fries in town...for as long as I can remember!! We love both the traditional & boneless wings. Personal fave Hot Garlic. I don't know about the other sides because we always get double fries!! If they happen to get cold, warm those puppies up in the oven. You won't be sorry. read more

This is a tough review to write because this place is a Dilemma. The wings were done perfectly; but they didn't put on any sauce (we asked for hot/buffalo), they must have forgot the blue cheese they offered, and the fries were salted perfectly; but they weren't crispy (resolved but 2 minutes in the broiler when we got home). Staff was great, parking ample (lobby closed...covid??), and nice location. Lots of ++ lots of - -. Most people think a tie = a 3-star review. If you've ever been to Vegas, you know that all ties go to the house. read more

Food was AWFUL. It's a takeout place so no service issues. Nothing for ambience. Def will not return.

The best wings I've ever had, we moved away and whenever we're back visiting family this our first stop. (I really don't even like chicken) but I could eat these wings all day. Best ranch you'll ever have as well. Literally have been searching for a ranch to match it and I never can. read more

The food is so delicious!!! It's a treat to get food from there. All of the people who work there are also so friendly. An Ocala must for delicious wings, slaw, fries, and baked beans..... read more

Best wings in the city! You could leave your order outside for 6 hours and the food would still be amazingly crispy!

Very disappointed in Crunchies & Munchies this evening. I got 15 mild wings, some fries and a few extra blue cheese dressings for $24.00, which I think is very expensive. 1) The wings were luke warm and are usually better if you pick them up within 10 minutes of ordering them but I went at 20-25 minutes as instructed by the order taker. Too late. The wings were warm but the blue cheese was warm too and was dissipating. The fries were cold and were soaking in wing grease. 2) The cashier always asks if I want to leave a tip even I'm placing and picking up my own order through the drive thru and are already paying a high price. A few suggestions to this place: 1). Tell the person that the order will be ready in 10-15 minutes instead of 20-25 so that the wings and fries are still hot. 2). Don't ask for a tip through the drive-thru. 3). Ensure the wings and fries are separate so that the fries don't get coated in wing grease. read more

absolutely ridiculous. we order from here all the time well used too. placed a delivery order tonight while I was at work for kids when I get home find out missing fries. put in for refund through the app and the restaurant denied because it was 2 hrs after food was delivered to children. not sorry we messed up and forgot half your order!! sadly place has gone down hill because before customer service was great read more

Always fresh and delicious food. I took longer than expected to pickup my order and the manager offered to remake the food, very kind and don't just throw your food at you like lots of places. read more

I am truly honored to write this review for crunchies and munchies. I am an African-American senior citizen that moved here to Ocala from Miami, Florida 11 years ago. I had the opportunity of going to crutches and munches on 14th St. when they were there and when you go there, people are hanging out the walk out the door, black white, Hispanic, everyone, they have since then relocated and I just want to commend them for the excellent food excellent customer service, excellent management and most of all the cleanliness of their locations I especially want to come in Miss Taylor she works at the baseline location that location is really the bomb the employees there are very courteous, very helpful and I have nothing but good comments to make on this location . I had the opportunity of speaking to someone in the other location in reference to the excellent service that I received on baseline and that young man was awesome and very grateful for my comments if you want some good southern cooking and you don't feel like cooking, go to the crunchies and munchies , it takes all type of people in this world and unfortunately not all people are going to act the way you want them to act however, I respect the business who caters to all people. Thank you so much Nadine Mobley read more

Crunchies & Munchies - My gratitude, and a very satisfied stomach - American Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Food was hard tasted awful. hard chewy bite sized pieces of chicken. Co-worker and i ate here and threw away the food instantly.

I enjoyed my meal! I ordered the mild garlic wings lunch deal! My wings were CRISPY and WET which is a MUST for me! The fries were fresh and crunchy, too! My toddler enjoyed the side of baked beans. I will say I was a little disappointed that when considering ordering a 15 piece, they would not split flavors. ( maybe because of COVID, idk)The drink that comes with the meal was HUGE, which is a plus also! The tea and lemonade were both tasty! This was my first time here just stopped after a doctors appointment. Customer service was great as well! I WILL BE BACK! Hope they split flavors by then read more

They been getting more orders wrong then right lately.They said 15 minutes to pick up order,it's more like 20-25.After 3 years l had enough

Very disappointed this Sunday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend of 2021. We called to place an order with a coupon that we had been saving only to be informed that they would not accept the coupon. We were saving this coupon for this particular race weekend. It was the last coupon we had for the Sunday special of 50 wings with fries, slaw and a 2 liter soda for $42.99. The coupon has no expiration date but was informed by the gentleman who answered the phone that they did not have to accept it and that they would not accept it. Basically, he said we could order something if we wanted or we could go somewhere else but that the store would not accept the coupon. He never offered an alternate solution and was very short with us on the phone. Please see the attached picture on the coupon, it is a full sheet out of the paper mint, note that we folded the page to show the back. Having been in retail for most of my life I know and understand the value of making a customer who has a problem happy with a solution. I guess this gentleman has not heard of The Multiplier Effect where consumers will tell others about their customer service experiences, both good and bad, with the bad news reaching more ears. Americans say they tell an average of nine people about good experiences, and nearly twice as many (16 people) about poor ones - making every individual service interaction important for businesses. In addition the people who hear about the bad experiences tell someone else about the poor experience who then tell someone else. read more

Overall I am super satisfied with the food from Crunchies and Munchies. My lady and I ordered a 20 piece Hot / Garlic Honey BBQ and a side of fries. The fries were DELICIOUS! The wings are an acceptable size and the sauces were amazing. My only quarrel would be that the chicken could be fried a little harder for my taste but, that's a personal preference. read more

I've been going to Crunchies and Munchies since 2002 when they were just one location off NE 25th. Best wings, tenders and fries my family and I have ever had! I've never had any issues with order or staff. Two decades of amazing food. Thank you read more

2/2 times I've had multiple issues. First time, everything was cold, barely any sauce, given an attitude when I asked to have it redone. This time when I called I (tried) to specify how I would like things. Make sure there's enough sauce and both the wings And the french fries were to be crispy. So they decided to charge me more for asking to make sure that my wings had sauce on them, and the fries still are not crispy, I will not be going back here again this place is a poor representation of how to do and run business avoid this place make the drive down to baseline or just don't go here. Go to Zaxby's. Trash. read more

These are the best wings in Ocala hands down! We've been eating here for years and the wings are always good and consistent. They make their own Ranch and Blue Cheese Dressing to dip your wings. I love the new roomie building but I wish it wasn't a longer distance from my home than the older place. read more

Ghis is the 3rd time Ive had a problem here. I go back because they usually make awesome wings and fries and my kids love it The first problem at the old location they charged me $260.00 by mistake to my debit card. it took several days to get a check back from the owner and nothing to make up for my trouble. The second time the hot garlic wings were plain....they did give us a free order next time wich I thought was appropriate. This time the hot garlic wings were plain and the fries burnt. The offer was to drive back for a pint of sauce or 10 percent(3.00) off the next order. that doent even cover the gas in my truck. They remade the order and I went back. Again....nothing for my time and fuel and trouble. 33.00 for chicken wings and fries.....the customer seems to matter very little. read more

This is a new lunch obsession when I'm at work! The hot garlic wings are so delicious & you get a huge cup for a drink!

Local favorite. Asked several people and was told to come here directly and that would be really happy. Friendly staff and awesome food. Definitely worth stopping in. read more

Always hits the spot! Definitely recommended Garlic honey bbq and honey mustard are my jam

Absolutely the best wings in the country. Their sauce is part of what makes the difference. They're cheeseburgers are average but the chicken wings are off the chain. The only thing I wished they had was grilled wings. If they had these, I would never go to Gators Dockside for grilled wings again. read more

Excellent!!! I finally found some good wings in Ocala!! I wish they had one SW, they would get a lot of business!

Pretty good wings, had a nice crunch and good sauce, even though they were small and two were half-wings? Didn't eat those two haha

Been here a couple of times and the food is ok, service could be better, but I only come here when in the mood for fish n chips LOL. Their coleslaw is pretty decent considering I'm not a fan of it. The fish has an alright flavor, and they give you a good amount of food for the price. For some reason I can never eat both pieces of fish, something about the texture of the fish. I don't know maybe it's just me. read more

My absolute favorite wing place! A must try for sure! Made sure I stopped and got some wings before I headed back to Tennessee!

Have lived in Ocala over 30 yrs but never tried these guys. Did tonight and won't try again got 15 wing dinner that had a few frozen frys and about a scoop of coleslaw over $15 dollars ? Give me a break, expected homemade frys and twice the slaw!! read more

This place is busy so clearly popular, but why is a mystery to me. The Garlic Parmesan sauce was overly greasy and not particularly flavorful. The Hot sauce tasted very similar to Frank's Redhot Wing & Crystal hot sauces, not bad but nothing special. The blue cheese dressing that comes on the side tasted like something you'd get at a cheap buffet restaurant. read more

I have been going to C&M before they were on 36th ave before they were on 25th ave before they took credit cards. I'm thinking over 20 years ago was the first time. Regardless long time. There wings used to be the best in town. Nothing fancy just a place you got good wings consistently. And they had a great fried pork sandwich. (Truly really good, fresh hot and just good). Well last 2 times I have picked up food it has went from one bite to directly into the garbage. Wings over cooked so over cooked it was like chewing on a pice of leather there was no meat it had been so thoroughly burned up. But hey I guess u put some wing sauce on it it's ok. Not for me. Today was it , done. Pork sandwich; absolute charcoal how anyone could package it up and out that through tge window to a customer is outside of their mind crazy, purposefully trying to ruin the owners biz or could just care less. Pick any of these and it's heinous. What's the deal? U don't have instructions written in the wall on how many min and at what temp things should be cooked at? Clearly I have employees who do not know how to cook so give them a timer and spell it out for them this is not rocket science it's fried food. And the easiest thing to teach is the person who wraps and bags is the last line of defense it is the most critical position in the whole chain. That personas absolute VETO POWER!! They throw it out and tell the cooks to do it over. And if they can't get it right they need to find something else to do because they can't cook. There are other things to be and do in life it's not the end of the world. But it could definitely be the end of this restaurant. I can only hope that the owner reads this gets in there and cooks the food themselves, hires an actual manager that will manage and train the employees and not just collect a pay check. Or close the doors at a certain time if you can not staff the place with proper cooks. It is going to go out of business there will be only so many times people are going to deal with bad food. Too many other places to go. Sucks I had to write this read more

Upgrading this place overall from 2 stars to 5 stars. Great job on the newest location on 36th Avenue. Eveything Is consistent and definitely back to the way I remember it. read more

My husband and I have crunchies on a weekly basis and it is consistently the best hot wings and fries in Ocala! We tried hot wings at other places but they're not even comparable to crunchies. Five out of five stars! read more
