sonthis is nostaligia in a bite and if it was just avout flavour theyd be getting a 4 maybe 4.5 but a few drops because of things like App not working, running out of buns for sandwiches and just the what seems to be crazy pricing for just chicken ($19 for 6 pieces and no option to buy less than 9???) But the banana pudding was delicious and the tatera are just delicious. fluffy potato goodness on the inside and crispy crunchy on the outside. I also apprdciate the mustard dill dipping sauce and not just your standard plum options! read more

For $6.99, the size of the chicken patty is no where close to the size of their advertised photos.. Definitely recommend going with the Spicy Big Mary. The regular Big Mary with spicy mayo barely has any kick to it. +1 for non-greasy bun, making it a less mess to eat. -1 for the one lonely pickle placed on top of the sandwich. read more

Mary Brown's - Mary Brown's Big Mary - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I am giving a rating of 3.5 stars and am rounding up. Every week, my department goes out for lunch. I made the suggestion to go to Mary Brown's. I have never been to one before. The closest one to my home is in Pickering. Since this one in Mississauga is a five-minute drive away from work, it made more sense to drop by and give it a try. It took me a number of iterations to figure out what I wanted. I cycled from a two-piece chicken combo, to the Big Mary (not me) sandwich, to the three-piece chicken combo. When I first walked in, I noticed the small counter. There were seats, but they are limited. Luckily, we were there at noon. We had first dibs. I also noticed that one of the middle menu screens was out. It was the menu that would have displayed the chicken tenders that I was about to order. I'm glad that I looked at the online menu before coming in. Of course, there was a sign that said that there was a hot chicken sandwich combo (it comes with a drink) for $5.99. I love a good hot chicken sandwich, but I already had my mind set on getting the chicken fingers combo. I placed my order. I could have swapped the taters that come with the combo for a mac and cheese salad. Instead, I wanted to experience everything. So, I got a small mac and cheese salad on the side. The woman was friendly and asked for my name, so that she could let me know that my order was ready. The downside going to such an establishment is that whenever someone says Mary, I turn. Ugh! My order was finally ready. I went to fetch my order and return to the table. The table is small for four people. We ended up giving back our trays so that we had more space to eat. My chicken tenders were long in length. This place puts all your food into cute little boxes. As a result, some of my chicken tenders were bent and broken. It wasn't a major catastrophe, but I would be okay if they were jutting out of the box instead of stuffing them into the box. The tenders were juicy and yummy. They weren't salted to death, which I appreciated. The downside was that I only got one little sweet and sour dipping sauce. I needed two. The taters were okay. Frankly, I could have done without them. There were way too many that I ended up in a mild carb coma an hour after finishing my meal. I loved the mac and cheese salad. Next time, I will substitute the taters for this salad. I need to give the coleslaw a try, as my colleague loves it. My combo came with a canned drink. I went with a Diet Pepsi. If you are lactose-intolerant, the chicken is dipped in buttermilk, so you may feel some of the effects. I managed to take my lactase pills before I ate, so I was okay. This place is clean and bright, other than the dim middle menu screen. I'd come back here to give the regular chicken combos a try. There are a number of specials, depending on when and what day you visit. (67) read more

Had lunch yesterday with a colleague and it was our first time here for both of us. Staff was ok and somewhat friendly. Food came quickly but was oily. Difficult to eat as the container the 2pc chicken &taters was in was so small so you had to place the chicken on napkins. The location is super small and the seats are so close to the door that when you open the front door your food slides away on the table cause of the wind/draft from the door. The food itself is just like KFC but not as flavourful...prefer KFC instead. Don't recommend and would not go back. read more

Had Big Mary and Sidekick sandwich. Was decent like usual fast food sandwiches. Big Mac comes with a pickle outside the bun so incase you don't like it you can just toss it out. read more

Wow, this was delicious - maybe the best fried chicken I've ever had! We came here on a quiet Sunday evening for a quick dine-in. Ordered 4 piece meal (sub'd in white meat) with taters, macaroni, gravy, and a drink. Portion size was perfect for two people. Everything was hot, tasted fresh, and was flavorful. The chicken recipe was excellent. Couldn't be happier, wish there were more Mary Browns in Toronto (especially downtown) and wish they were all just like this location which clearly places importance on serving high quality food (an extreme rarity in the fast food industry it seems) Will definitely come back here again. read more

Mary Brown's - Chicken Wings Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I first discovered Mary Brown's almost 20 years ago on Queen Street in Streetsville (Mississauga) when I used to work up that way. It was in a strip mall and a small place. It wasn't fancy or well known at least to me at the time but it stuck with me for all those years. Fast forward to this last summer when a group of friends had a picnic in High Park and one of our group brought Mary Brown's as his contribution and I was like... damn son that's something that brings back memories. Now I've always known Mary Brown's was around but it wasn't something I would thought of and wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to get because well it was one of those out of sight out of mind situations. KFC which I've sort of gladly fallen out of love with quite a few years back has partly to do with my wife in the fact that she hates them. She had a bad experience decades ago and hasn't eaten at KFC since. Still, I've had my fair share of going to KFC a year here or there but very occasionally. Together we are more partial to Popeye's as far as take out fried chicken is concerned. They are more available sure and they're better IMO than KFC by a long shot although I still don't get it why there's no Cajun Sparkle to be had in Canada. Not only until I somehow noticed that there was a Mary Brown's not far from my home was my love for them rekindled. I mean I love fried chicken. I can't say it's my absolute favorite meal since I have so many that I like but it's right up there for me. The store I'm referring to is at the north east corner of Eglinton and Dixie connected to a gas station. While this area is literally saturated with places to eat, this one is well tucked away although it faces the street, it's very inconspicuous being such a small foot print in this very busy area right across the street from one of if not the busiest post offices in the country (Gateway). On my way home one evening I decided to grab us some dinner and because I haven't been in forever I had no idea how the menu was going to be as far as sizes, prices etc. I needed a few minutes to go over the options but I wasn't pressured since the place wasn't that busy. I had tried to go to this place several times before but they seem to close at 7pm most evenings and on the May long weekend even though I went before 7pm there was a sign on the door saying they'd be closed Sunday and Monday (insert sad face emoji). I was happy that I'd finally get to order, it was a good feeling like then you go to the mall and you don't have to drive around for 10 minutes looking for a parking spot or like getting on the subway and finding a seat or getting green lights all the way home. It felt like it was my lucky day... I went with the 8 piece meal which included 1 medium side salad and choice of fries or taters etc. I went with the taters (yum) and a macaroni salad and gravy. I had asked about the breakdown of the pieces because some places if you don't ask I've found in my life will try to give you an imbalanced meal of only dark meat. My wife doesn't like dark meat which is fine because I'll eat any pieces but true enough, breasts are bigger than thighs and drumsticks so it's also about value. That and she only really prefers the wings. She's got perma dibs on those pieces. It was explained that the 8 pieces would be 2 thighs, 2 drums, 2 wings, 2 breast pieces. That's perfect, basically an entire chicken EVEN. The meal came out to about 27 bucks with tax. I'm only about a 10 minute drive home and when I got home the plates came out right away. The chicken is nicely cooked, juicy, and fresh. The pieces were decently sized, not necessarily huge but not tiny either. The taters are amazing. I love these potatos... they're sort of coated so they're thick but also not bland. Their gravy is brown, sort of like what could be considered "beef" gravy as opposed to white "chicken" gravy. Either way their gravy is awesome with their potatoes and chicken. I found this is good value considering Popeye's for about the same meal is about 10 bucks more. Mary Brown's may not be Halal (I'm not sure) but for us it doesn't matter. I'd say it's way better than KFC by far and sort of reminds me of Bojangles which we don't have here in Canada. Either way I really ike Mary Brown's and I'm happy they are close to where I live so I can go back more often. The value is good, the quality is good and the chicken is great! read more

I kind of like Mary Brown's. They advertise their meal prices but you can just get the burger or whatever it is that you want. I'm a fan of the pickle chips. Who knew? It's pretty tasty. Really I just like fried chicken. It's a weird location because it's at a gas station but you can get a Starbucks while you wait read more

Never heard of Mary Brown's chicken but it was the food of choice for a recent backyard event. We had the spicy chicken and wow it did have a bit of a kick! We had a combo that came with gravy, coleslaw, macaroni and wedges which I would say the wedges were the best part. They were super crunchy. I'm not sure I love it over the other fried chicken competitors but it's definitely not bad! read more

Since there were 2 of us, I'm going to split the difference between our ratings. John's order was bang on... exactly what he wanted in taste, quality and quantity. I on the other hand, asked for a 3 piece chicken all white meat and received a rib, wing and a drumstick. The lady behind the counter saw the issue but the cook didn't seem to see the problem. Eventually I got a breast. The chicken was well cooked but bland and the gravy not to my taste at all. I just don't think I'm a Mary Brown's kind of guy. read more

Nice staffs, clean area. Lots of parking spaces for free. They also have decent amount seating area inside.. Good chicken but taters were realy salty today and they only sell regular chicken here not spicy :-( read more

Figured I would update my last review. That disgusting burger I ate was actually a new menu item added by head office. It was so bad, I thought this was a rogue franchise adding weird stuff to their menu. The owner of this location is actually a very nice guy. (pretty sure the guy who is there 90% of the time I drop by is the owner). This location is near my office so I drop by every monday (Big Mary Mondays FTW). Love the food. Great customer service. 4 stars because of the nasty "hot chicken sindwich" on their menu. The big mary burger is great though. read more

The first few times I came in here when it first opened, I would have given in 4 stars, but today I was really disappointed. The chicken itself was still good. Lightly battered and crunch, not as oily as its competitions. It's got a spicy taste, but is mild. I haven't bought fried chicken in a year and forgot the protocol of indicating white or dark meat, I hate white meat. She also didn't prompt me either. The taters.... I remember the first time I came in here, I was drooling at first bite of the taters. and I got SO much that I saved it to go home and heat up. Today, I got maybe a quarter of the box of taters, and they were soggy and not the same. My next craving of fried chicken, I'll got to popeyes across the street... read more

So much for my low-carb diet. I think I'll stick with smaller portions on a regular basis, with some exercise thrown in for good measure!! To celebrate my return to regular eating, I decided to go for some fast food!! For some reason, I had a craving for some chicken... This was the first time eating chicken from this franchise. Like many people, our default fast-food chicken place would be KFC. The more adventurous folk go for Popeye's (my personal fave). This location is situated in a little plaza which has a few fast-food choices. The strip mall also has a Starbucks, a shwarma place and Quesada Mexican grill. There's even a gas bar if you want something from the convenient store! Anyway, I had the 2-pc. chicken meal for $7.99, which normally consisted of coleslaw, a can of pop, and their famous taters. Apparently there are both small and large sized chicken pieces, and the combo usually gets 2 LG pieces. They only had small, so they gave me 3 smalls instead of 2 large. I also ordered a small gravy, which was $1.50 or something, extra. The cashier, a nice elderly lady, must have read my mind, because she said they would substitute the gravy for the slaw!! SWEET! So, to summarize, I left the place with a bulging box of fried chicken on a bed of breaded potato wedges with gravy and pop on the side!! The food: definitely not as greasy as KFC and more lightly seasoned than the KFC Original recipe. There is definitely less of a kick to this chicken than those from Popeye's, but that's not a dig on the taste. The chicken tasted good, without weighing me down with too much breading. The taters were VERY GOOD. I don't recall another fast food joint that makes them like this. All in all, a satisfyingly good lunch devoid of any vegetables whatsoever!!! BONUS! :D read more

I've been to this location a few times over the last year and a half. Very happy with the food and service. The server always has a smile and is very friendly and helpful regarding the menu. The service is quick and the food has always tasted fresh. It is a tiny store located next to a gas station however it is very clean and there are a few seats as well. Love the mini Mary burger and I'm excited for the Big MARY monday deal coming back! read more

I love MB.. their taters are the best. Cicken is a hit or miss. Sometimes it tastes like it has been sitting for quite sometime as its dry. Other times... MB standards. So who knows. Service is friendly enough... can be slow waiting for a 2pcs. I do not like their salads and always substitute for a gravy. read more

Came here for a quick bite before heading somewhere else on a Friday afternoon. The place was empty, and the staff were vacuuming and didn't really acknowledge the customers. I got a few things off the value menu: chicken snack pop-in ($2.99) and the single chicken wing ($1.99). Portions were small for what I paid for, and I already didn't pay very much. Food was sorta bland, and wasn't very crispy. Popeyes has better crunch and more seasoning for the same price. The honey mustard was a neon yellow colour, but the taste was fine. That being said, I think the Popeyes one plaza over has this place beat with bigger and a wider variety of sauces and generally better chicken. read more

Mary Browns is one of my favourite fast food fried chicken spots. Some locations are not good but this one is really good. Staff are really friendly and the food is cooked well. I come here a lot, but there is good reason. read more

For the one in gander Newfoundland it's a five all the way but for the one in Sackville NS 0 it made me so mad at how people get treated my husband just got off work and went in to get a feast . Ok we had the feast the week before and we get it every week but this time it was hard and dried out several pieces anyway. So they told us to come and get another some said yes we will but we live 50 miles from there so he said he would put it in the book and took our names. So my husband went in after work about a week later and they said there was no name in the book and the woman looked at my husband and said YOUR Just looking for free stuff .WELL no good my husband just left without saying anything I called the them and said there must be a mistake she hung up on me .I will continue this as soon as Mary Brown's head calls me back . read more

Bring from Newfoundland, I grew up eating from Mary Browns. Not sure what happened since they came to Ontu, but, WOW this stuff is salty. Anytime I order it I spend the evening bloated and drinking glasses of water. One after the other. It's good other than that. read more

I'm hoping I received a bad batch of chicken and not something representative of the franchise because EVERYTHING was BLAND BLAND BLAND and expensive to boot! I was suckered in for the Monday 9 pce chicken box for $10, a god deal! I knew you had to buy their large taters to get the deal -OK, how much could that possibly be, $5? Nope! $8 for a box of wedges! At $3 a bag for 10 lbs of raw potato, that would buy you 30 lbs. I got maybe a pound. They looked great, small, battered and nicely cooked and completely tasteless. The chicken was quite generous in size, not like ripoff KFC, but more like Popeyes. The coating was greasy, soggy, and most importantly completely bland. Fried chicken has to be CRISP if not anything else, and a little bit of flavour would not hurt. I salted everything out of desperation and the flavour improved 100% Reviews that say this stuff is "nicely seasoned" are out of their minds. Make sure you bring your own salt shaker if you plan on ordering here. This stuff is as bland as baby food, Stay away! I always try to support the underdog whenever I can, but now I know why Mary Brown's is so scarce and poorly known. They have a long way to go before their food can compete with the big guys out there read more

Wow! Surprisingly fast compared to other fast food fried chicken places. This place has been change now, it's under new management (way better then old management) chickens way better then KFC/Poppy, best chicken!, it's %100 halal meat!. Cashier and other staff are very friendly.. read more

Love me some fried chicken and this place delivers. Much better than KFC and Popeyes. Their chicken is so fresh, juicy and I love their potatoe wedges. Thumbs up read more

Garbage service. It started off with nobody at the cashier or in the kitchen until I had to call them out. The cashier was coughing repeatedly even while packing my order, so I highly question the sanitation of this place. Lastly, the sauce they gave me was everywhere in the bag, on the napkins, receipts, etc. Not going back there ever again. read more

As a first time MB virgin I was impressed with the cozy rustic atmosphere. The elegant lobby boasted rich architecture that can only rival what my eyes will see in Rome. We are greeting and confirmed our reservation and offered several selections from the daily Fresh Sheet. Being famous for chicken, we elected to go 3-piece meal, fries, slaw and a Diet Pepsi and my date had the Famous Daily offering, 2-piece, fried, macaroni salad and a fresh local water. We were quickly seated in the most luxurious table in the restaurant which boasted fabulous views and offered us time to relax while our appetisers were prepared. We were able to decant our beverages and let them breath before we ate. Roberto, our concierge for the meal, despite being in poor health today, quickly delivered our made fresh daily appetisers. In a word, the slaw was AMAZING! My taste buds were tickled as the delicate rhapsody of cabbage and mayo hit my palette, I savoured every bite delivered from the fine sterling cutlery. Sandra claimed that her macaroni salad was as if, delivered from God on the wings of 100 perfect angels. Our expectations, exceeded already, we could now die happy. We were able to relax, for only a moment before the second course of our perfect first time meal was delivered. Served, as it should be, piping hot, we were forced to wait for our meals to cool, this was the most difficult thing as I could see the tender golden beauties before me, but not touch. I would have gladly risked a 2nd or 3rd degree burn just so I could pull off the scab and relive the taste experience. The chicken was prepared in the traditional Mary Browns way and I would rate it higher than the best Wago or Kobe beef in the world. The fries, were Idaho Russet and I believe, flown in daily and cut in house, on site. The candlelight that lit up Sandra's beaming face, highlighted the succulent grease and ketchup on her hands, face and in her hair. Our meal came to an end and we felt blessed that we were able to consummate our relationship at 45 Queen St on October 27th 2016 at 12:32 PM EST. Mary Brown, you are a dream conceived in the heavens, delivered to earth and have blessed my life, my soul and I shall die happy, rich with chicken in my belly. God bless Mary Browns and God Bless the United States of America! read more
