Chicken was good as usual, probably the best spot for the price. The fries were cold this time i got them (probably because of the long line), but they're usually kind of like McDonald's-style, just not as crispy. Burgers are great too, I feel like they're low-key slept on. The pies are delicious. Staff is super sweet and friendly. I just don't understand why the place is so small--it kind of kills the vibe. Sometimes I want to sit and eat, but the only option is outside, which isn't always ideal. It feels like a cost-saving decision, but it might be hurting the experience. Overall, still a good spot. read more

Excellent service, food is fresh every time I come in. Never a bad day with jollie b. Will tell all my friends and family about this place

Food was amazing, and the environment was jolly! Was amazed that the food was also quick, Would recommend to anyone.

This was my first time trying Jollibee, and I'm honestly so glad I did. I was in town visiting before heading back down south and wanted to grab a good meal before my road trip. I remembered I had never tried Jollibee before and had heard it just opened, so l figured it was the perfect time to give it a shot. Right away, I noticed how easy it was to get to and how much parking was available, which made the whole experience stress-free. The restaurant itself was super clean, and the staff were incredibly nice and attentive. They were ready to help before I even had to ask, which made everything feel really welcoming. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich with jalapeños and spicy sriracha mayo, and it was So good. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavor really stood out. I've had a lot of spicy chicken sandwiches from places like KFC and Chick-fil-A, but this one honestly tasted fresher and lighter in comparison. I'm seriously impressed and already looking forward to coming back. I could honestly eat this every day. read more

Friday, May 1st, 2026 Approx. 1PM OVERVIEW: Get your chicken and GTFO. PROS: 1) Despite other comments on this thread to the contrary, I think their chicken taste stands up to other Jollibee restaurants in the US and abroad. 2) Convenient location CONS: 1) This location was probably designed by some corporate numbskulls who were only thinking profit on their investment and not about pleasing the customer. That is why there is almost no seating space on the establishment. So the unspoken message from management/ownership is, "Get your chicken and GO HOME! Don't even bother trying to eat here." 2) Further to the above regarding corporate profits, the pricing scheme at the Stockton location seems to be the same as that of locations in other major cities. So it seems that management doesn't care about the economic demographics of Stockton, and are all about taking in as much as possible. If the corporate marketing people did their jobs, they would find a way to promote discounts like the 12 piece Chickenjoy Meal Deal that other locations offer. 3) Like other people have commented on this thread, there were like at least twenty (20) personnel working behind the counter during my visit, but it took almost twenty (20) minutes for me to get my order. Total inefficiency. It appears that the staff hasn't been really trained in functioning as a high-performance/high-output team. I mean, does it REALLY require twenty people, at any given time, to make fried chicken? If your main product is making fried chicken, the management should focus on doing this quickly at a high-volume pace. That's it. SUMMARY: If you want some yummy fried chicken, and are willing to pay a couple bucks extra for it, use the DRIVE-THROUGH WINDOW to order. Don't bother trying to order inside. Otherwise, in this era of high inflation, if you want yummy fried chicken at a cheaper price, Google some Chinese restaurants in Stockton which do fried chicken as well. read more

The chicken tastes different--the flavor is lacking. It's like they forgot to season or something. It's nice and crispy, but it doesn't have the same flavor as other Jollibee locations I've been to. Maybe it's because it's still new. They also don't offer the full menu. Hopefully that's only temporary and not a permanent thing. As of writing this, Online ordering is not available either. There's no space to eat inside; they prioritize drive-thru and takeout at this location, which is a bummer. Many of the Jollibee restaurants we go to are always full of dine-in customers. It sucks that this one only caters to drive-thru and takeout. Outdoor sitting only. At this point, I would prefer to visit a different location until these issues are addressed. read more

Tried Jollibee yesterday and was surprised it wasn't too busy--there wasn't much of a wait. The inside is pretty small, especially the ordering area, so it makes sense why lines can form outside. There's no real indoor dining, just a small seating area while you wait, plus a few tables outside. The chicken was good--crispy and flavorful. But the adobo rice was a miss for me--it was mushy and didn't have much flavor, almost like plain rice with a gravy texture. Not really sure what the hype is about--nothing outstanding, but nothing bad either. It just felt like another fast food spot. read more

This was my first experience any Jollibee. Overall, a good experience. Our order was take out. The restaurant was clean. It was a bit confusing trying to figure out where the line started. A manager had to direct people a couple times while we were there. The wait time from ordering to receiving our food was normal/acceptable for fast food. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The outside of the chicken was crispy and the inside was moist which, according to their website, is the goal. A 6 piece bucket coat is $18.99+tax. For me, the value isn't there when I can get an 8 piece of Cleo's for $9.99. read more

First things first! Stand in line, dont wait in the drive thru. We were in and out in about 20 minutes compared to most likely an hour plus in the drive thru. As for the food. It was phenomenal. Super crispy, moist , and well seasoned chicken. The fries were cooked well and had the perfect amount of salt! And the sleeper of the meal was definitely the biscuit. It was fluffy and had so much flavor. Dont wait 2 or 3 hours like some people but definitely do yourself a favor andn visit jollibees in Stockton. You wont regret it! read more

Jollibee - 2 piece chicken joy with spaghetti - Chicken Shop Near Me - Stockton, California

the staff was welcoming upon entering. there was no line so we walked right in. But we were so disappointed they don't have spicy chicken. They said maybe in another month they'll have it. So we left and went somewhere else for lunch. There are a few tables inside but most seating was outside and they had set up tents too due to the rain. I wouldn't have minded sitting outside if only I could have my spicy chicken. read more

Food is great! Service was great. Can't wait for the spicy chicken! So glad we have drive through now. And also, we don't have to drive to Brentwood or Sacramento. Yay! read more

All that hype for nothing. Disappointing in the portion and quality of the food. Biscuits were dry they didn't have butter or honey. The chicken was pink. The sides are so small enough for 1 serving not enough to share amongst 3 people. Spent $60 would have rather gone anywhere else read more

1 star off for the 45-50 min wait in the drive thru but understandable cuz they just opened a week ago, but chicken was on point. Will I comeback? YES! Will I wait almost an hour? YES! read more

I was SO excited to see Jollibee finally open back up in Stockton on Pacific Ave! There used to be one here years ago, so this felt like a full-circle moment for me. Me and my husband decided to go get some today. First off.. yes, the drive-thru took about 35 minutes, but honestly... it just opened, so that's expected. The hype is real, and people are showing up! All these negative reviews I've been seeing are honestly over the top. If you know Jollibee, you KNOW, it's darn good! Now let's talk about the food: The chicken? As always, absolutely delicious. Perfectly cooked, super juicy and tender on the inside, with that crispy, golden, crunchy coating on the outside that hits every time. Too plain? Add some gravy! Still, it's good to me The peach mango pie? SO good. Sweet, warm, and crispy...definitely one of my favorites. I really wanted the ube pie, but they didn't have it yet. Hopefully soon! The Yum Burger was about a 6/10 for me. It wasn't bad at all, just a little too small & plain for my liking. I also wish they had the Aloha burgers available, but since they just opened, I get that the full menu isn't ready yet. Mashed potatoes and gravy? OMG. 10/10. No notes. Creamy, flavorful, and just straight-up comfort food. Fries were pretty standard, but definitely NOT cold like some people are saying. Mine were fresh and hot. And the pineapple quencher?? WOW. So refreshing and perfect for this hot weather. I would go back just for that alone. Overall, I'm super happy they're back in Stockton. Once they roll out more menu items, it's going to be even better. I already know I'll be coming here a lot more often! Give them a little grace...they just opened. The food is worth it! read more

I'll cut them some slack since they're new but the lines are ridiculous & the chicken wasn't seasoned properly like other Jollibee's I've been to. Hopefully with time they'll get better and smoother sailing. read more

Chicken - 3/5. (Didn't have spicy as an option) Regular is bland. The chicken itself is juicy. Gravy is what makes it. Adobo Rice - 3/5 Great smell. Needs way more salt. Mushy but decent. Mashed - 4/5 Good for fast food. A bit above KFC . Texture is good. Mac and Cheese - 4/5 same as the Mash. Better than most Fast Food ones. Spaghetti - 4/5 not your traditional spaghetti. Sweet. Very unique. Fries - 2/5 Cold. No salt. No crunch. Worst of all the items we had. Gravy - 4/5 you pretty much need to dip everything already not covered in it to get some flavor going. They didn't have spicy. Which is a joke. It blows away the original. Messed up the order and left stuff out. First word that comes to mind after finishing. Bland. read more

Took 20 mins waiting in drive thru line to order. They dont currently have tenders and don't serve chicken breast in their chicken meals, only legs and thighs. The sandwich is chicken breast. Ordered mashed potato's peach mango pie, spicy and original chicken sandwich with fries, last a pineapple drink. They had us wait for our chicken sandwiches. Waited 10-15mins for our food. The fries were cold and sucked because they were cold. Complete waste of money. The mashed potato's did taste good but again COLD, so didn't eat them. The biscuit was barely warm and had to use to scoop up the mashed as they failed to add utensils even when I specifically asked before I left the window to wait. Also didn't get the ketchup I also asked for, but would have been a waste as the fries were inedible because they were served COLD! The chicken sandwich was the only item we received hot. It was a good sandwich but for the wait we could go across the street and get hot fries or elsewhere. Disappointed in the cold food. Will be a while before I come back here. Workers were "jolly" but couldn't make up for the cold food served. read more

Food was Great! Gave me nostalgia. Picking up food was not so great. Watched about 5 orders get picked up before mine. Asked the person who dispatches the food what's taking so long, Told me "they're still making the burger" really?!?! 2 burgers!?!?!? Are they processing the patties back there too? 2 mins later all of a sudden my order is ready. My goodness, They have probably over 20 staff members on shift and still couldn't get the order out promptly. Pro Tip: Don't be discouraged to park your non EV vehicle in the EV parking spot. Lots more space and prevents door dings. read more

The service and food was good but expensive for 2 pieces of chicken since 2 small pieces for $13 but at chicken church you get 10 large pieces for $15-$18. The chicken there look and taste the exact thing as chicken church. The place look nice but doesn't matter so much. What matters most are the things we ordered and the pricing. I'd say if you only go mainly for the chicken, then I would recommend getting your money's worth at chicken church. read more

So... this is the second Jollibees.. after the first location off west lane and hammer closed in 2018 and here we are again 7 years later. I've actually had Jollibees before a number of times (first time around 2002) being your Bay Area locations and sometimes safe. I've heard the first Jollibee closure was due to high building rent costs of course it's shared building space... but now I've seen their social media posts regarding the new Stockton location (and another NYC somewhere) about first 50 customers this and that drive through or online order or in line for pickup... Not mentioning dine in like their other grand opening in NYC.. so hmmm and this Stockton location is small. So thought to myself is this the first non dine in Jollibee... ever?... Like how I went to the McDonalds downtown one time to wait and and eat in while having my car worked on across the street but came to find out you got a tall and short table but no chairs and a timed limit?? So I actually had a chance to speak with a higher up working there like a week before this new location opening when I just parked and wanted to check it out and seeing a car approached coming out he said that they're obviously not opened yet; nice guy named Dave. We chatted and yes there is no dine in but it may just be temporary but they're going to setup an outdoor dining area. Id assume maybe rent costs is lesser this time as to why the first location is closed but he said the first location was in a bad area and bad crime. Hmm. Plus there isn't going to be much staff because .. well it's small. He said it could be booming soon for just these small Togo/ drive through type locations though there will be a small seating area but that's where revenue will be a bit more. So I frankly think this will be a drive thru/ to go only and just eat in the car or parking lot - I'd think a dine in area would be nice but depends if there are going to be ppl loitering or just hanging around and being sketchy but since this is part of the mall I'd imagine there's a good security presence as well as police presence as they can stop by the mall sometimes especially with some of the reserved police parking spots out there. I came through coming from the gym on opening day on Good Friday and blew it eating meat.. arrived 7:30pm and the line was slowly moving. The store manager's family came thru out of town and congratulated her on the new location and so I wish her well in running this place for years to come. And so it was an hour and a half wait and I had a 3pc burger steak gravy patties with rice for myself which was delicious.. and got palabok to bring home to the fam along with 5 mango pies. They had a temp outside dining area with 4-5 tables with chairs and several umbrellas for shade and that's where I ate. I'd imagine it'll still be busy like this for maybe another two weeks until it dies down but then again their flyer has promos starting after 4/10 until end of June if you buy a certain amount of food you get a free chicken sammich.. $3 off any $15 or more purchase. I will come back again for sure which they should have ube pies this time (they ran out when I went so just had mango). read more

Jollibee is the best place to go if you're feeling like you want chicken, or a hot fruity pie. The staff are efficient and fast at getting food out, the managers or workers are nice about helping if foods missing (P.S, make sure to check if you have all your food!) the ambiance is great and the best part is getting to sit outside and talk with your family or friends and see the giant chicken bucket. I would rate Jollibee as the best place for great chicken fast food. read more

The chicken is always good! We got lucky and got there just before the dinner rush, we ordered for takeout and the wait wasn't long at all. They do have seating outside because there's really no room to dine inside. Overall our experience ordering from the Stockton location was very good. It's a lot closer than driving all the way up to the Jollibee in Elk Grove! I hope this place does really well! Raising Canes has some competition now & we'll see in a few months. read more

This place isn't going to last long just like the last time! Management horrible!! Whoever was working today around 5:20pm exudes short man syndrome. Mad, cause you had to do your job? Cashiers were fine! But when asked about our food after noticing people coming in after us getting their food before us, I brought to his attention and he had a whole ass attitude because he couldn't find the receipt! That's how they prep and place the orders on the tray and into the bag for carry out. Not to mention an hour after watching everybody come and go and yes I was patient until little man copped an attitude when asked about my order. I didn't even eat the damn food bec the way he packaged it as if there was ill intent or mishandling on his behalf on purpose! read more

The food taste horrible! I had a chicken sandwich, fries, and soda, and my granddaughter had a burger, fries, and soda. The food quality was NOT good we took 2 or 3 bites out of our sandwich and burger and ate some fries and threw the rest in the garbage! We will never eat here again. Both of our stomachs felt uneasy as we walked back to our car, and here I am 1 hour later still feeling like crap so I'm giving this review. read more

I decided to try Jollibee for the first time and went in completely blind. I wouldn't say I'm a picky eater, but I also don't usually eat a lot of food that's outside of what I'm used to, so this was definitely me trying something new. When I got there, the first thing I noticed was how small the place was. There was only outdoor seating and no indoor seating, which wasn't ideal. I took a look at the menu, and at first I was considering getting one of the chicken sandwiches. But honestly, they looked a little too plain for my taste. I personally like sandwiches that are loaded with more ingredients and different flavors, but that's just me. Since I was already there to try something new, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and ordered the Palabok Fiesta, 3 Steak Burger, and a Peach Mango Pie. While waiting outside for the food, I was definitely curious to see what everything would look like. Once I got it, the presentation was... interesting. To me, it didn't look super appealing at first, and I was a little nervous I wasn't going to like it. The first thing I tried was the Burger Steak. It was okay ... not bad, but not something I was amazed by either. The gravy was decent, and the patty itself wasn't bad. Overall, I'd probably give it a 2/5. It wasn't terrible, just kind of average to me. I also tried the mac and cheese, and I felt pretty much the same way. It was okay, but nothing memorable. Then I tried the Palabok Fiesta, which had transparent noodles, sauce, beef, and sliced hard-boiled eggs. I was actually the most nervous to try this one, but it wasn't bad at all. Once I added the lemon juice, it tasted a lot better. I'd probably give it a 3/5. It had a lot of flavor, maybe even a little too much for me personally, because I feel like I'd get flavor fatigue after a while. Overall, it was decent. Lastly, I had the Peach Mango Pie. It was definitely on the sweeter side for my taste, but it was still pretty good and probably one of the better things I tried. Overall, I'd say Jollibee was an interesting experience. I'm glad I tried it, and while not everything was really my style, I can appreciate getting to try something different. read more

So happy they finally gave a Jolibee in the Central Valley!!!! I love the fried chicken and spaghetti and palabok.

Service Takes TO LONG. Food Overrated and OVERPRICED Ambiance had to wait and eat food outside First experience and my last HEADS UP! Don't GO! Unless you willing to wait 40 minutes for a combo this never should've been built read more

Opted to stand in line Friday around 6 pm. Wait wasn't bad==in and about in 15 minutes. Car line was horrendous! I had 2 pc chicken with spaghetti and peach mango pie. Chicken was a leg and thigh and well done. waiting line to get into store was managed well. Ordering was easy and courteous. Wait time for food was about 5 minutes in spite of long car lines. Kitchen staff was plentiful accounting for fast servicing of orders. No ube pies available but the peach mango pie was delicious and hot as always. Think this store is meant to be a take out store. Eating area is outside under huge umbrellas but will most probably not be a fun place to eat when the rains come which they did as we exited the store. Will definitely be back for the palabok which I forgot to order and the chicken but not till the swell of cars and people die down which I can foresee not in the immediate future. read more

For all the hype that this place gets, I wasn't overly impressed. I'm inclined to give them a little grace since this location has only been open for a week or so but for me it's a no. The food was average at best. I had the original chicken sandwich meal. The sandwich was very disappointing, not hot at all and very lacking in flavor. The fries were good. A little crispy(which I like) but could have been saltier. The store itself was clean and the Customer service was polite and professional . For a place that prides itself in chicken, it was a letdown. read more

Much needed addition to Stockton's food scene! Love the Chicken Joy, especially dipped in their gravy and mixed with white rice! On top of that, the spaghetti with its sweet tasting banana sauce and cut up hot dog pieces may sound weird to some, but it's definitely a Filipino thing! Overall after the hype dies down, pretty sure the service and wait times will become more manageable in the future. read more

I was so excited to try the new Jollibee that just opened here in Stockton, but unfortunately my experience was disappointing. I ordered the chicken, and to my surprise, I found a feather in it. This was really off-putting and not something I expect from a restaurant. The staff seemed friendly, but the food issue made it hard to enjoy my meal. I hope they pay more attention to food prep and quality control in the future, because I really wanted to love this place. read more

I'm sorry Jollibee but, The chicken was uncooked, and cold. The fries were stale and tasted like dust. I waited 16 hours in line expecting better but got the complete opposite. The ambiance was good, that's an A+ as well as the service but the food was definitely not it. I don't recommend it, it's not worth the wait. Go to the one in Brentwood or elsewhere, not this one. Those are better. read more

We found chicken Joy at 9:00 AM on a Sunday morning. We did not get any sides because frankly I didn't know what to order. The chicken is very well prepared and it's not greasy. The spices are different from American versions of fried chicken. And I liked it. The chicken was fresh, hot and the skin was crispy. read more

I'm honestly so frustrated. They confirmed my name at the drive-thru window but still handed me someone else's order -- the receipt even had a completely different name on it. I didn't catch it because I assumed once they confirmed my name we were good. I live about 35 minutes away and didn't realize the mistake until I got home, so driving back wasn't even an option. What's worse is there's no phone number anywhere to call -- not on the receipt and not online. First time visiting this location and definitely the last. read more
