Flip the Bird is one of my favorite chicken spots- particularly because it is local and the food is great. I often make the mistake of ordering their spiciest variant of the chicken sandwich: the Cry Bird, and every time my body regrets it and I nearly cry, ending with a satisfied stomach ache. This may sound bad, but this sandwich tastes amazing and they're even so kind to include a pair of latex gloves for "handling" this sandwich which always seems to give me a run for my money despite being a piece of food (don't rub your eyes barehanded after eating this). While the food is good, how about the space and the staff? The Woburn location is relatively new. I noticed it one day and was ecstatic that I no longer had to go to the North Shore for this prime chicken joint. The inside is clean as I have seen and very much "feels" like a chicken place. I don't recall if there was much for decor on the walls, but they do surprisingly have merch! Another great way to support the business. The staff have always been nice to me, however, sometimes there has been a slight hiccup when ordering because a staff member was not clear or needed assistance. No issue with this, nobody is perfect, and it never hindered my experience here. Maybe just a slight nudge to ensure they are all clear on what to do is all, but otherwise I am always thoroughly happy with the food here. read more

These chicken sandwiches are DELICIOUS. Nashville Hot Chicken was not really that spicy, but the price structure makes you pay significantly more for each additional tier of spiciness. I would recommend the double spicy for a decent kick. The chicken was super crispy, which I loved. There were a lot of nice craggles on it. The buns were buttered and rich. Their slaw is really good. Their fries are also really crispy. Why did I give it a 4 instead of a 5? Price. The fries cost $5.50 for what looks like a medium at any fast food restaurant. The sandwiches are all $11 or more. The food is so tasty, but it's really pushing the boundary of what I'd be willing to pay. The sandwich really isn't that filling. read more

Pros: -Nice staff -Crispy chicken -All-gender single occupant restrooms The "OG" fried chicken sandwich was good! My only critique was there was a lot of ranch and I ended up trying unsuccessfully to take a lot of it off. I might ask for light or no ranch next time, but would definitely consider coming back for a chicken sandwich. read more

Flip The Bird - Chicken Shop Near Me - Woburn, Massachusetts

Flip The Bird, Woburn. Lives up to the hype and deserves the praise it gets. These chicken sandwich shops are popping up everywhere but only a few stand out and this is definitely one of them. Ribs were a sleeper hit, honey butter with biscuits is a must, especially if you like Texas Roadhouse. Overall you can taste the difference in clean fresh ingredients and fresh oil compared to other fried foods that get overly saturated and heavy. read more

I've stopped in three times now, and service has always been pretty good. Also worth mentioning is the restaurant is always really clean! Their food is average, better than the drive thru places....but nothing really makes me crave or go out of my way to go here. Also it's 20+ bucks for a sandwich, fries, and a fountain drink...I don't personally see value here when there are better places within walking distance that serve as good (maybe better) offerings at far less prices. read more

Delicious chicken sandwich and not too long of a wait. Chicken was fresh, hot, and crispy. But, The fries were cold. Not refrigerated cold, but barely warm, like they had been sitting out on the counter for 30 minutes. And the chicken in the sandwich, while tasty, was definitely on the thin side. They upsold me on the "garlic aioli" which turned out to be regular mayo. I will go back, and I bet the next fries I order will be warm or even hot. read more

Super disappointing because everything on the menu sounds amazing and marketing is awesome but there was otherwise nothing redeeming about the food or service. The Healthy Hillbilly salad advertises fresh avocado, received a blob of prepackaged green mush on wilty lettuce. I know, who goes to a fried chicken place for a salad? We also had fries, grilled chicken, fried chicken - all cold and dry af. The Early Bird sandwich had an over cooked, rubbery egg and seemingly raw egg yolk just poured over it. Staff was unfriendly if not just standing around. read more

Flip the bird has always been great when I have ordered/dined in! Their chicken is great and never has anything gross on it. Price is reasonable for the quality you receive. My go to is the Nashville hot bird but all other options are great as well. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

BEST chicken sandwich I've ever eaten, but in New England!?! Yup! This place is an authentic little gem. I kept it simple and ordered the Nashville Hot. It delivered! The flavor profiles were spot on. I don't like when a chicken sandwich joint serves low quality chicken and slathers on the sauce to mask it's lack of flavor and quality. This is definitely not the case here. The chicken is tender, tasty, and not overly breaded. The sauce was the perfect amount and combined nicely with the "chow-chow" coleslaw style topping. The fries were thick and crispy, reminiscent of an old southern style burger and sandwich joint. The truffle ketchup sauce is my jam! We even ordered the Angry Fries and the flavors are a treat to the taste buds. The Angry Fries are a meal in themselves. Friendly staff as well. Watch out Nashville and the South, New England's got serious game in the spicy and hot chicken sandwich quest! read more

Awesome chicken sandwiches! Never had a bad experience here...service is great and plenty of different sandwiches to choose from. Our family loves to go there often. Luckily we don't live far from there. read more

Solid chicken sandwich shop. In the old Wu Burger spot. The chicken sandwich was really good, as well as the tenders and salad. Fries and biscuits were average. Customer service was friendly. Worth stopping by for the chicken. read more

Went late Saturday afternoon, and it tasted like all the food had been made that morning and was just awaiting a reheat. Biscuits were reminiscent of KFC, lacking butter and flavor. Chicken was warm, but lacked flavor outside of the breading. Bad naked chicken was bad, and dry. Nothing was hot, except the fries. 10 minutes after eating, I couldn't even remember I ate it. Not worth the $$ at the moment - maybe it's a case of franchise fatigue. read more

Delicious chicken sandwiches. My wife said the OG was the best chicken sandwich she's ever had and I really enjoyed the Nashville Hot. Been back twice and every time the order is hot and fresh - no heat lamp stale BS. I'm glad we finally have something good to eat in this corner of Woburn. read more

Nice clean place with different seating areas. Greeted well. Food was a big disappointment. Oversized chicken sandwich that falls apart at the first bite. The chicken inside was juicy but the crust was heavy and greasy. We had 2 different sandwiches. Mine had bacon and guacamole, but the whole sandwich lacked flavor. The roll was not great. Lemonade was good. $37 for 2 chicken sandwiches, 2 lemonades, no fries, including tip - not sure what the hype is... read more

I love Flip the Bird. It's my favorite chicken sandwich in the area. Great flavors. And those biscuits with honey butter are the best biscuit I've had in the area. The cry bird is impossible to finish unless you're truly immune to spice, they serve the sandwich with gloves for Pete's sake, the angry bird is plenty hot. They make their own sauces like garlic aioli or truffle ketchup. read more

First I have tried here today and thought it was delicious.... Nashville hot was very underwhelming I was expecting at least twice the heat but very good anyhow. Fries were impressive, they stayed crispy throughout the time of being eaten. Chocolate shake was a chocolate shake.... Nothing special compared to other shakes I've had. Now the complaints: 15 minutes to make me a shake.... The shake was nearly gone by the time my food came out 10 mins after that. There were only 3 kids in there drinking shakes not waiting for food, what was the hold up? I will return to give it another whirl but that sandwich, shake n fries for 32$ hurts. I did leave a 20% tip to the girls working there but ouch read more

Probably the best chicken sandwich I've had from a fast casual place. Fries are a bit pricy but the angry fries are delicious if you're willing to pay the premium. read more

Great food, excellent service. Great atmosphere. Will definitely go again. The fries and shakes were top notch

Not good. The bun was way too big for the size of chicken and did not hold up. The sandwich itself was dripping in some sort of grease /water mixture. The coleslaw had absolutely zero seasoning (please a pinch of salt, sugar and/or vinegar will do wonders). They were out of large biscuits and the tiny ones we got instead were like hockey pucks. There are so many good fried chicken offerings now at new and established restaurants. I can't see this place lasting long. read more

This location is getting less and less consistent. Today was 3rd time the Nashville Hot has been WAY over fried. So much so that I more than likely won't visit this location again. read more

First and foremost, the service was bad. There was a guy making horribly inappropriate comments to a young girl, who made it clear that she did not not want to hearing that kind of stuff out of his mouth. Secondly, they were so distracted that they really didn't inform me the person purchasing thing of anything about any of the food.. The chicken sandwich was good. I asked for a family size fry with sauce on the side and when I checked it, the fries were covered in a spicy bayou sauce, making it unsuitable for the whole family.. So $55 later I had a generally unpleasant experience. But hey Mr. inappropriate is making $15 so that's good. read more

The chicken was cooked perfect and tasted great! Maybe priced a little high but the quality was there.

My oh my was the food here very good by there is one major issue I experience whenever I attend this establishment. The food here is beyond expensive! I ordered a Chicken sandwich (cannot remember the name) and a side of fries. What was my total you may ask? It was $20 for a chicken sandwich and fries. I could go to mcdonald's and get the same meal for less than $10. I was also interested in purchasing a milkshake so I asked and the price of 1 milkshake came out to a whopping $11. I can go to dunkin and get the same thing for $4. This place is good if you're above the average american and can spare money but I would not ever recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a quick bite to eat. Ps: they also take a long time to make the food for a "fast food" place. read more
