I ordered a wing, a leg and two thighs. And fries. $13. She gave me all that plus one more wing and a biscuit. The biscuit was good! And the clerk was sweet I thought chicken was dry and the fries just okay. Mr food,over liked the chicken leg the most I probably will never go back..... I've had better fried chicken It's a very busy gas station. About 10 people (all men) were lined up behind me cause only one clerk. Some of the men in line told me the chicken is called Hooker Chicken because of the neighborhood We walked here from the dance theater across the street where we saw Iolanthe read more

We ordered the signature wings and the mixed chicken and biscuit through DoorDash. The mixed chicken was a tad overcooked but the batter was crunchy. A few of the signature wings still had feathers attached throughout so that was a bit unappetizing. Not sure where the quality control broke down - at the supplier, the fryer or the server.... read more

It lives up to the name, the chicken is krispy and crunchy. It's amazing I didn't even have to ask for ketchup they offered it thereself. I recommend going it tastes really good. 5 stars. read more

IYKYK, you know? The chicken here is like phenomenal for being from a gas station sitting under a heat lamp all day. Idk how they do it nor do I care to know but it's my favorite fast food fried chicken (I was exclusively Popeyes before). The potatoes are good, the cornbread muffin freaking rules. read more

They don't use real quality Krispy krunchy chicken. They buy there own ingredients and make the items themselves. Real KKC is marinated on the inside and has a specific batter to it. But the one I received was like Safeway chicken. Their biscuits is from elsewhere at not the same vendor, tasted like cardboard. The bean and rice taste like crap. The Mac and cheese I received tasted old and had black spot in it that looked like mold. No items I received was from the real KKC vendor guaranteed. Threw everything away after 1 bite. They making their own custom foods and using the KKC name read more

Krispy Krunchy Chicken - Nothing tasted good - Cajun/Creole Near Me - San Francisco, California

Ordering was easy, plenty of chicken, my wife wanted shrimp so they had to fry it on the spot. Short wait but the area at night is sketchy. There are a lot of employees refilling and stocking up that time of night, but the sketchiness of the customers makes it a little dicey. Chicken was big and juicy, wife liked the shrimp. read more

Gas station fried chicken is underrated. Great spot to grab chicken though the area is a bit sketchy at night if you go alone. Juicy and crunchy. You can also add on sauces like honey mustard too. Picked up a box of fried chicken on a Tuesday for lunch and it stayed warm and crunchy on the walk home. The fragrant smell wafted through the box. The skin is so crispy and I love how flavorful the meat is too. I like pairing this as a protein with a packaged salad for easy weekday lunches. Really quick line and checkout process. Order chicken at the cash register! They ask you how many pieces you want. You can also walk over to the side to see the menu and sides they have in stock. There are some Cajun sides like jambalaya that I want to try next time I stop by. read more

Krispy Krunchy Chicken - Cajun/Creole Near Me - San Francisco, California

Had fried legs/thighs and biscuits. I have no idea of the cost, as a friend brought them over, he had something else from there, not sure what. I had three pcs dark for dinner, and the same for lunch the next day. The blueberry honey biscuits were heaven. Even right from the shop, the chicken was dry, and the skin was no longer attached to the meat. It obviously had been under a heat lamp for quite a while, and they separated while the meat shrunk. Small thighs and legs compared to KFC or even Safeway. There was a slightly fishy taste and aroma on a couple pieces, as if they were cooked in the same oil as the shrimp. All of this is bad enough, but that evening, my system totally purged. TOTALLY. read more

This was some of the best chicken I've ever had in my entire life the woman who is working there was so kind she smelled like flowers and she gave us a free sample that was so juicy and crispy it was like my taste buds we're having a dance party in my mouth the service was immaculate the kind beautiful woman who is serving us gave us lots of extra sauces and the Honey on the buns is an excellent delightful touch that really satisfied my urges for a sweet treat the ambiance could be a bit better I don't recommend dining in cuz it's just a little small it's more of a grab and go back home. It's really good for chicken on the go read more

By no means is this fine dining, so taking it for what it is, drunk snacks, krispy krunchy chicken is one of the best spots for late night fried chicken. Quick, you go in and out, you're not there long enough to even care about the service, and when you're inebriated trust me it means nothing. 4 pieces of chicken, a small order of potato wedges, and a drink was roughly 16 dollars and it was more food than I could care to eat. But I was feeding the soul not the body. Krispy krunchy chicken is great because of how late it's open and the consistent quality , I'm a fan read more

Bad service, great chicken! I ordered in advance for pick up, the cornbread tasted old, and it wasn't what we ordered. Thankfully it was ok.

Make no mistake, this is literally gas station fried chicken. Think hole in the wall, and add a touch of carbon monoxide poisoning. But hey, I'm not going to judge a book by its cover. There aren't many southern / NOLA-style fried chicken options in the area, and my roommates and I get the hankering some times... I'd been recommended this place by some friends and seen some glowing reviews for this place specifically (out of 3 locations), so we were extremely keen on checking it out. We've gone twice now, and there can be some sketchy characters hanging around, but haven't had any problems going at night. Buddy up... It's open late night and that for sure is worth having around. No sit down, all the food is out under heat lamps, you pay at the counter and take it to go. That being said, I think you can get in and out in minutes, unless they're out of chicken and another batch is in the works. Trust me, that is a very good problem to have. The value of this place is truly mythical. The buckets come out to $1-2/piece which by any standard, most of all by SF's, is unicorn-status. Important logistics note: Flooring it on the 15min drive home, frantically rushing through the door, and getting everything out onto the table, still yields chicken that is indeed *krispy* Review of the dark meat: Skin: Delicate, not quite as flaky as peak Popeyes, but pretty freakin close. Flabor: You can tell there's some secret seasoning magic going on here. Again- not quite popeyes, but real close. My roommates and I all agree that the chicken tends to be quite salty, but not a dealbreaker. Meat: Super tender and the flavor penetration is real. A bite into it and you might see orange residuals (???) inside the chicken. Flavor injection? Must be. But I'm not gonna question it. Just take my money. I'll be back. Guiltily too soon. read more

Delicious chicken. However - the oil its fried in? A bit sus. Finally -- an interesting caveat -- placed a door dash order with a shop that calls itself "Famous Crispy Fried Chicken" but what arrived had KKC branding all over the box - so while the product did not warrant sending it back or anything like that - its a challenge to imagine being a repeat customer. Whoever figures out fried chicken with - organic chicken and avocado or coconut oil -- will definitely get this reviewer as a customer read more

I love KK chicken and have never had a bad experience until I came to this location to grab some. Had high expectations based off reviews and was in the area so we stopped by to grab some. Right off the bat all the female employees working there were acting extremely rude and odd towards my husband and I for no reason.. really weird experience honestly. Sorry you actually had to get off ur chubby butts and actually work, weirdos.. Quality and taste wise the chicken and biscuits were crap. Idk how or why they could mess KK up so horribly but the biscuits were dark as hell and burnt to a crisp. Chicken tenders were dry and extremely overly seasoned in Cajun seasoning they were red in color. Just an overall lame experience. There is a lot of krispy krunchy locations to choose from, especially in the city. Avoid this spot if you don't wna deal with lazy brats and poopy food. read more

That chicken is yummmyyyy. Yes it is in a gas station but it is so worth it. I went with a group at around 11:30 pm and there were several other people there getting chicken. It was about $7 for 2 pieces of chicken and a biscuit but I think they have a $4 deal 10-2pm. The chicken was so juicy and crunchy. The biscuit wasn't like a normal biscuit but honey soaked I think. Soo good and so nice that they're open so late. I will be coming back read more

I admit I was really skeptical on buying lunch from here, it's a shady gas station... but my buddies convinced me. Got 4 (massive) chicken strips and a jambalaya. The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside which is what you want from great fried chicken. The jambalaya was fire as well, decent portion and just spicy enough. Service tho was kinda odd. Would eat again tho. read more

A bartender recommended this place to us for the best fried chicken in town, so here we are. Who would've thought that a gas station will serve up some crispy and crunchy fried chicken? The two of us ordered an 8 piece dark meat fried chicken (thighs and legs) (~$9) and a honey butter biscuit (69cents) with two drinks. It was convenient to grab some other drinks, snacks, and essentials since it was a gas station. Everything came in a cute carton box that looked like a barn. We carried it over to Dolores Park to enjoy, which was pretty nice. The fried chicken was solid and tasty --definitely met the crispy and crunchy aspects. The muffin was different than I was expecting as it was more like a fried honey blueberry muffin, but quite delicious as well! The sweetness was a bit overwhelming, but paired nicely with the savory fried chicken. Note: I like that this place is open 24 hours! read more

This place rocks and you'll see once you try it! Think KFC but only the bits you want. Fried chicken and sides at an affordable price. Just located inside the gas station on Van Ness (don't let the ambiance deter you). You can guiltily grab a Coca Cola for the road inside this gas station as well as your Krispy crunchy fried chicken and eat at the park nearby! Self service at its finest. read more

Horrible dried up chicken wings.... 3 for almost $10.00, you're giving the brand a bad name. Old dry wings with the skin/batter separating off the chicken. Sad and clean the place up, I should call the health department. read more

On our way to another restaurant, my coworker friend decided to check out the fried chicken place (as she calls it). I've never been there or heard of it until she kept telling me there's a great fried chicken place inside the gas station. Wait, what? Gas Station Fried Chicken? Yep, I was pretty skeptical. And they were 24 hours..... We walked from work, it was a pretty long walk if you had to walk by yourself, but I was with my coworker friend so it wasn't too bad. About 6-7 blocks later, we arrive inside the gas station.. it's a pretty cramped space with lots of candies and things to buy. At the left of the register was a section of their fried chicken and a whole menu of things. Their fried chicken is not oily and it lives up to its named.. it's Crispy and Crunchy! Their potato wedges are just average, by the time you get to eat it at the office, they're soft and soggy so meh! Their biscuits are really tasty though. It's crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside (that's what you really want anyway). Their fried shrimp is average, I think it's the frozen kind and they just fry it up for you. If you're ever in the area, get their chicken, it's GOOD.. I would say better than KFC, and on the same level as Popeyes!! YUMMMMM!! For those who like their spicy, it has a little mild kick to it. (I only like the chicken's dark meat.. ) I def would be back to get more chicken and their biscuits! read more

This place is located in a gas station, and they have their fried chicken sitting there under like a heat lamp. Sounds not so good right? Surprisingly, it was quite delicious and a fair price as well! The fried chicken had a nice flavorful batter and the chicken was cooked decently well (though I guess this would depend on timing, as it's probably better to come when its busy so there is always fresh chicken). And the chicken comes with a blueberry muffin biscuit which was delicious! It was so decadent and you could really taste the oil or butter or whatever it was along with all of the sweetness. Overall quite a surprise that ended up being rather delicious! read more

TL;DR - Gas station chicken? Yeah, but its Krispy Krunchy Chicken so it's delicious. I like to think I'm a fancy bitch, but really I am a simple person who loves fried chicken and I particularly love Krispy Krunchy Chicken. I think their chicken is top tier fast food. Their chicken is juicy throughout, like literally when you tear a piece off and you can see the juices between in the meat. SO GOOOOOOOD. This was so funny, I was walking home from the grocery store when I saw on Google Maps that Krispy Krunchy was close by. I normally go to the Marina to get this, but I was like, wait its close by? Hell yes. Turns out, it's in a freaking gas station! But whatever. I ate it on the way home and for lunch the next day, I'm not sick, so I think it's safe lol! Their fries when I got them were not that crunchy so I heated them up at home in the oven and they were fire. read more

Easy, good, quick. Get the jambalaya--and get the house sauce for your chicken. Very yummy

This chicken is likely excellent piping hot out of the fryer. Unless you hit KK at the exact right time, the reality is that your piece has probably been sitting under a heat lamp for a while. After all, it is a gas station. Solid fried chicken but not the best. UPDATE: another reviewer mentioned you can ask for fresh, will try next time. Thigh: Coating: 4/5 nice skin coverage and good base. Could use more salt. Skin/crunchiness: 3/5 some traces of crisp but getting soggy Chicken/oil flavor: 3/5 fine, the oil wasn't the cleanest taste Biscuit: 5/5 yum. extremely salty and butter flavored. First bite is very concentrated, but you'll come back for more. read more

The last 2 times I have ordered from them there have been problems with my order. The 4 piece dark meat with biscuit was made up entirely of drumsticks and no biscuit. Same problem with the biscuit happened the previous time. Good chicken but better variety and thoughtfulness would have kept me as a customer. read more

Who ever thought you could find good fast food at a gasoline station? They have great fried chicken here. I ordered some cajun tenders (seasoned chicken tenders) along with potato wedges. The chicken is sitting under a heat lamp but it tasted like it was just cooked and all the pieces were juicy. There's only to-go here as they don't have seating for you to sit down and eat. read more

Great Southern Fried Chicken. Great crust. Enormous portions! one wing piece was bigger than a 3 piece at popeyes or kfc. terrific bargain price. door dash delivery charges but worth it. this is famous 'gas station chicken'. you get a huge box of chicken. id bet it was 3.5 to 4 lbs. cheap price. a bargain. and it arrived hot and crispy. good biscuits too. wish i had ordered more. i would serve this to guests. re heats quite nicely too. this is to go food. 17 th and south van ness. very happy. my cardiologist would have a conniption fit! read more

Food: YUM!!!! Fried Chicken - OK...so I was a little skeptical about coming here but seriously it was pretty darn good. We got a fresh batch and it was mighty tasty. I think if I had a choice between this and Popeyes...this would be a good second runner up. Service: Nice staff...although it's a gas station mind you. Ambiance: Like I said...a gas station and we were there at night so it was a little interesting. Overall: Being that I work close by...I'm EXTREMELY happy to know that this is an option for me to go to. It's cheap and good. You just don't know that it's at a gas station of all places! read more

It was only a matter of time before I had try the infamous fried chicken from a gas station in the Mission. There is something satisfying about bypassing pricey vegan fine dining and chomping on some gas station fried chicken at a nearby parklet while drinking blue soda. It was reasonably priced and decent tasting, but I feel like it could have been so much better if it just came out of the fryer (instead of sitting under a heating lamp for an unknown interval of time). 8-piece Fried Chicken: Better than Safeway fried chicken, but can't hold a torch to Popeye's. The spices were nice, but the chicken didn't seem that fresh. The meat wasn't terribly juicy and the skin was only moderately crunchy. I imagine that since it comes from a place primarily visited to buy gas, it doesn't have a high turnover rate. I'd really like to taste to fresh out of the fryer to understand how it really compares to other fried chicken fast food. Biscuit: Wasn't a fan. I like biscuits and I like drizzling honey over biscuits, but pre-drizzled just didn't work. It was almost like a buttery sticky honey bun. Once again, maybe better fresh out of the kitchen. Jambalaya: I liked the ample chicken and sausage, but the rice was very heavy on the soy. It was almost like fried rice instead of jambalaya. Don't think a fresher version would have improved things much. read more

Bomb fried chicken. Forget Popeyes. Forget KFC. Just don't even go anywhere else for fried chicken. You legit get this out of a gas station, but don't let that turn you off. You will be hit with the smell once you walk in and instantly be captivated. Menu is pretty standard - drumstick, breast, dark, white, chicken tenders, fries, etc. What isn't standard is THE CHICKEN. So tasty. So Krispy. So Krunchy. For two people, we got a little carried away, but everything looked so good that we wanted to try a few things. We ordered an 8-piece dark (all out of white) meat mix, 4-piece Cajun tenders and large fries. All of this turned out to be under $25. Seriously. How??? The chicken tenders weren't quite as crispy, but the other chicken was fantastic. It has a very subtle spice in the batter, but you'll be fine. The chicken is super juicy and flavorful, so so crispy. I'm drooling just thinking about it. Obviously, because it's at a gas station, there's nowhere to sit and eat, so plan accordingly. There was a small line (a line at a gas station is still pretty notable though), so not sure how comparable it is to the location in fisherman's wharf, but this wasn't bad at all. All-in-all, probably about 15 min wait? Absolutely will plan on coming here again! read more

Seasoned, juicy... and affordable! Flavoring is injected into each piece and it pays off. This is my favorite fried chicken in San Francisco, including all of the yuppity spots with overblown amenities like (cue scare-quotes) "plates" and "seats". This is not a designation I make lightly and frankly the number 2 doesn't come close enough to mention here. It's a gas station on Van Ness and on the Friday night we came through, there were all kinds of hijinks going on. Brace yourself for that and keep your wits about you. Jambalaya tasted like the Tony Chachere's box mix (fine to pass unless you need the extra sodium). They were out of the red beans and rice which would have been my first choice. The staff was friendly and efficient, unfazed by the hustle and bustle of large families, people knocking off long shifts, and others about to kick off their weekend. Grab and go or use an online delivery service to get it delivered. The park 1 block over has a bit of a rodent problem - fine to picnic there if you're okay with an expectant audience. read more

The food is convenient when there is not many options especially late night but Be careful to add your order up on your phone calculator because they will definitely overcharge you especially if you're buying several items as far as the fast food is concerned. The lady at the register has done it to me several times, until I confronted her and did my math on the phone. So watch these people not just these people but a lot of establishments in SF will use this trick. Antennas up y'all read more

been wanting to try this gas station fast food chicken for a while because it's 24 hrs and reviews were great. got the two piece meal w side of mashed potatoes w gravy. the chicken was delicious, breast was a decent size. paid extra to make this an all white meat meal. what happened here was enuf to knock this to a one star review, frankly. although the breast was a decent size for the bay area, famous for selling partial breasts as whole breasts, the 2nd piece was as long as a snow crab leg with less than 1 bite of meat total. weirdest 2nd piece i've ever encountered. the mashed potatoes w gravy side was large. the gravy was mostly tasteless but the potatoes were good. parking is almost nonexistent, and difficult to get around cars parked at the gas pumps. overall i recommend the place, but suggest u buy by the piece rather than encountering another of those very strange leg/wing things w no meat. the honey biscuit was TO DIE FOR, and i dont even like honey read more
