Tenders and Potato Wedges

I haven't eaten Lee's Chicken since they left Birmingham many years ago. It was a pleasant surprise to see one in Jasper. First off, the service was super friendly. Particularly, for a fast food drive thru. The restaurant was fully staffed, so even though there was a long line, it moved fast. My food was delivered fast and hot. It did not disappoint...delicious! My son said it was the best biscuit he has ever had. If I'm ever in Jasper again, Lee's Chicken it is.

I could just cry penning this review. I hadn't had Lee's famous chicken since I was way younger. All the locations abruptly left Birmingham many years ago. So sad! I would always tell my coworkers who leave in Jasper to bring me some Lee's chicken but , unfortunately, they had yet to do so..... guess they thought I was kidding. I wasn't .... So while heading back from Huntsville, Al , it was imperative to make this nostalgic detour to get some delicious Lee's chicken in Jasper, Al. It was long overdue! I saw angel when I arrived. The drive thru was crowded so I elected to go inside for a number of reasons. ( bathroom break , take photos for yelp and take all the time I needed to place my food order). The inside was clean and the staff was eager to take my order. They were so nice. I didn't have to wait long for my food & it was soooo hot. Time to make the last leg of my trip to Bham! Even once I got home my food was still hot. The chicken was so crispy and just as good as I remember from all those years! I can't forget about the potato wedges and red beans & rice!! Both were exceptional and went well with that good ole fried chicken!!! I throughly enjoyed this meal and I'm already planning another trip to Jasper for some more Lee's chicken!! It's well worth the drive.

Yelp! Lee's still got it. Bae and I drove to Jasper to get it. We got the 8 piece special with mashed potatoes and macaroni. I know, we had to add to the greens we had at home. We also got 4 delicious biscuits. We get to the window and is greeted by somebody's super sweet grandma. That's why the food so good, sweetness is in the air. To top it off, everything was in the bag as it should be. Still hot, fresh and delicious after the drive home. This stuff good. Y'all already know, I'll be back.

Three piece meal of the famous recipe, killer!!!!

The first thing that caught my eye was the sign Lee's off highway 78 , I thought it was strange this old franchise I thought was extinct, and I thought this could be the last Lees Chicken franchise on earth , so if it survived it must be good , so I tried it out , had a three piece meal with small side of livers , cold slaw , mashed potatoes with gravy and a biscuit , best fried chicken I've had in years light, crispy , well seasoned crust , the meat was juicy , livers were great slaw was great as well , the biscuit was light and fluffy, the only thing I could possibly find wrong was maybe the gravy wasn't terrific just ok . it's directly across the highway from a KFC but what caught my attention was Lee's was packed very busy and KFC looked like it was closed . If you're looking for a delicious fried chicken in Jasper , you gotta try this place , no wonder it's still open , clean , fast service and the chicken is the so so good . Great job to the staff and owners .

This fried chicken ia the bomb!

Food is pretty good for fast food. Chicken livers were good . Chicken pretty good and at least the size of the pieces is not too bad.

Best Chicken fast food restaurant you'll ever eat at! I highly recommend the Spicy jumbo strips, baked beans, potato wedges, and sweet tea!

When I first arrived in my car and opened the door to the establishment, the very putrid scent of…read morediahrreaha whafted into my nose and partially singed the hairs inside i scrunched my nose but unfortuantly i am 400 pounds and needed a MEAL when i walked up to the counter the employees in the back were arguing about the best shape of "bad dragon dildos at first i didnt understand what that was but then i opened my google pixle flip phone and searched it i was DISGUSTED!!!! but alas i digress. i spoke up and asked for an employees help to order but no one came i stood there for a few minutes before my bones started to creek and had to sit down i continued to yell from my seat in the back corner of the restaurant for service, but to no avail. eventtually the weight of my big body fat began to press against my stomach so i had to use the restroom i put my large hands on the table in front of me and began to push up to gain my balance and stance but the table came loose from the wall and was leaking oil!!. DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!! but thats not even the WORST part as i begin to make my way to the bathroom the PUNGENT stench of liquid POOP began to fill my nose once again. i pushed open the door to the female bathroom and made my way inside i was then greeted by a trail of HOT yellow diahrreah. unfortunatly this did NOT stop me from using the bathroom i put down toilet paper on the toilet seat in the cleanest stall there was in this establishment and pulled my pants down to pee it was then when i noticed there was a hornets nest in the top right corner of the stall i was using. this also did NOT stop me if anything this fueled my rage. once i was done in the bathroom stall i did not bother to flush or wash my hands. i stormed out of the bathroom and went up to the counter and did my best to hop over, but i am ONLY 4'11 on a good day and could not make it over. this alerted the employees and jump started their brains i was then FINALLY able to order but maybe my own putrid stench also helped me perhaps this was also a factor in them noticing me and not just my body build. :) i ordered a bucket of wings three bowls of mac and chesee five chicken nugget boxes gravy and biscuits (multiple), among other things. i was told to sit back down preferably in the corner once again and to not move and lift my arms and reveal the pit stains on my shirt. this made me feel insecure and humiliated. after around an hour and 30 minutes of waiting i have received all of my food items EXCEPT my biscuits. this made me furious. but i also noticed that every single employee was wearing a mask fully covering their nose and mouth, i presume because they do not enjoy my alpha pheromones. i asked for my biscuits and they told me to pay and leave before they called the cops unfortunatly i had to submit to this request because i had taken off my ankle monitor 5 mins prior to getting in my car and driving to this fast food restaurant i paid for my food and they charged me for my biscuits even though i did not receive them. i left with ONLY one of my two stomachs full im sure you can imagine my frustration. this establishment is FATPHOBIC, ABLEIST, and UNSANITARY. if you care for your wellbeing, DO NOT visit this establishment ever and REPORT them thank you for reading. i will be sure to get therapy after this traumatic incident.

Service is absolutely horrible. Not one person in lobby ordered food. Sat for an hour waiting and…read moregot passed by multiple people. Staff arguing, claiming it's cooking. This has happened multiple times.
