Amazing brewery. When I went to purchase your brews at the Ale Jail in St. Paul, I asked if they were going to keep carrying your beer. They said, " as long as they can keep up with the demand!" . We live pretty far away but are happy to support your business! Keep on keeping on! read more

Solid chicken place. Pretty no-frills as far as decor but they're clearly going for decent food. I ordered the 3-strip combo and I wound up with four strips. Mistake, or just one of those situations where they judge the strips to be a little short so they compensate with an extra. Whatever, I found them nicely flavored and ever so slightly overdone. Really only a touch, and you gotta admit that's better than the opposite problem. It came with plenty of dipping sauce, chosen out of a wide spice range. I got medium ("Coop") and liked it very much, I would get that exact one again unless I wanted to try other ones which seems like it might be a good idea. Also it came with a side of mac & cheese (substituted from fries) and that was very good. I will DEFINITELY get that again. This is a nice, quick, easy chicken option. read more

First experience here, and was driven to try it due to a Delta skymiles perk. We ordered to go and I arrived early and food was not ready, totally fine, I was early. Space is utilitarian. I would probably always get it to go after being in the space. The staff were nice, and the food was ready when promised. All three eaters gave the food a C or C+ rating. The fries were the best part, very good - even after being in a to go container. Had we reinvigorated them in the air fryer they would have been even better. Chicken was good, but not great. Spice level was accurate. Cole slaw was warm, which is not a temperature cole slaw should be. The sauce that comes with is not my thing, and the 16 year old said it was a copy or Raising Canes sauce. Overall not a bad experience by any means, we just won't be hurrying back. read more

Great location, plentiful FREE street parking. Restaurant was clean and well appointment and staff was super friendly. Food prices were reasonable and portions were very generous! I'm not a big fan of spicy so I went with the medium spice and it was delicious, great flavor and just a little bit of a bite. They have some bottled drink options but also have a soda fountain. Only note I'd make is that the music was uncensored so if you have small children and that's important to you then you may opt for take-out. read more

Delicious! Heard so much about the hot chicken here and was absolutely delicious! They do chicken strips and they do it well! Ordered medium spice and was an excellent hint of heat. The chicken was coked perfectly and inside was juicy. The service was quick and efficient, from ordering to receiving the order. Decor was fun, bright, and lively! Thanks for a great snack! read more

This little chicken tenders shop is doing some solid Nashville heat chicken tenders! The chicken is moist and very tender. Their spice levels range from none to very hot, I got the middle ground and it was just right. Their coleslaw and pickles were very good, and the fries were excellent, huge portion. You order at their counter and they bring it right to you, good service. There's not much to the restaurant, only a few tables and high seats counters. Their takeout game must be strong because lots of folks were getting their meal to go. Overall it was a good experience and I would definitely go back again. read more

Appreciate the different levels of space that you can choose from. Big eating space and fun sides too.

Went there on a Wednesday evening around 7pm. Plenty of on street parking available. The place was dead so we were the first and only ones in line :) Simple menu with just 3 selections to choose from; strips & fries ($13), strips in a bun with fries ($14), strips with Texas toast & fries ($15): with 5 levels of hotness available. Drinks are separate. We both got the Texas toast strips and fries with varying level of hotness. Food was plentiful with a generous portion of fries and sauce with coleslaw and pickles. Came out to be around $40. The food itself was ok, nothing to brag about at all. The fountain machine had multiple flat pops. There is very limited seating inside; like 4 tables with 12-16 chairs both of which have seen better days. The bathroom was dingy. With this place, and all the hype, ymmv, but it's not a repeat for me unless am in a bind. read more

Not exactly Nashville hot chicken as I usually think of them drenched in a cayenne and paprika sauce/oil, but I would still say the chicken is pretty good! The tender basket is a go to with the slaw and toast. They were even kind enough to allow me to substitute the toast with another slaw. Portions here are quite generous and I was easily able to get 2 meals out of it. I would also recommend getting a cup of Mac and cheese with mini coop spice. Parking is free and easy behind the building. read more

My first time at Nasville Coop I went in not looking at a single review or knowing anything about it and I was very happy with my food and the service. The only negative was the space is a bit small leaving their storage closet being part of the decor. With only 3 main menu items to choose from I went with the Texas toast, which was 3 tenders that were a good sized and I chose medium spice. It came with two pieces of perfect toast, some awesome pickles, a great sauce and super crispy fries. The medium spice was exactly as advertised and perfect for my taste. I will definitely be back. read more

My coworker wanted to get food from here so we did. I was shocked how thick the chicken strips were! Large portions! I did the mini coop hotness level and I wish I did the coop. It wasn't spicy enough for me but wanted to try the lower lever first. The fries were delicious!! It came with a sauce I would compare to Canes sauce and some pickles. Overall it was good, I wasn't blown away but it was good and I was impressed how big the strips are. read more

The food delivered. I ordered the Texas Toast. I got fries with no seasoning or catsup. Cole slaw with no fork. But the chicken good. I got 4th hottest. Service was good. Ambiance was better than Dave's hot chicken. read more

The atmosphere inside the restaurant is amazing. The food is good. I love the chicken sandwich.

The Mac and cheese is mushy and bland. Basically the noodles are way overcooked and the dish tastes like flour, not like rich cheese. The tenders are always way too dry. Between the dry rub and the type of dry breading mix used, the only way to make these palatable is to drown them in the sauce. You need to try out Raising Canes for an example of what to aspire to. It pains me to say that as I'm very anti-chain. Also your dining area is way too loud when there are only a few people talking. Sound just bounces off of everything. Put up some sound absorbing tiles or something. Service was okay, not amazing. Staff seem more relaxed / slow than what they should be when they have 10+ order backlog at prime dinner time. read more

Tried this after trying Dave's Hot Chicken. I won't lie, after hearing people talk a big game about this restaurant, I was ever so slightly disappointed by the flavor. This may be because I have a sweet tooth and Nashville Coop has a very savory flavor compared to other hot chicken spots. It's not my personal favorite, but I have many friends and family that favorite Nashville Coop over any other restaurant. Overall, a good eat, not bad price. Parking is typically a hassle and is usually paid parking because it's near Dinkytown. Inside was calm and clean. Business was a little slow, but worth it for the freshness. read more

Just grabbed some for the first time in (regrettably) a while via their food truck. Dang are they good and I'm ashamed it's been a while. I did the two tender plate with fries today, seasoned, so well. This includes the fries which have a delightful crispness and matching attention from seasoning. I got the coop level seasoning which is enough to give you a simmer without wrecking your palate. The service out the truck is always so efficient, the crew so nice, and the price is right. When you see them, get them. Enough said. read more

A tasty spicy chicken tender option. A step above in quality and taste as well as price point over a certain LSU based chain. There's parking in the back and on the street. I walked in a bit after they were opened, and they were already busy prepping orders. I went for the Texas Toast option Texas Toast: 3 tenders The chicken was fantastic; crunchy, juicy, and spicy. I don't recommend eating as a sandwich since the sauce will lose that beautiful texture. The slaw was refreshing as well, not too thick. Fries on point. The price point was a bit high for my preference. It's effectively a lunch counter with a dine-in rate. Probably related to inflation, but don't see this place as one of my regular rotations. If you never tried the Nashville spicy chicken, this would be a good place to grab a bite. read more

Nashville Coop - Service area - Chicken Shop Near Me - St Paul, Minnesota

This place is comparable to Raising Canes in the food selection. This place does chicken tenders and chicken sandwiches and that is it. This is a smaller restaurant with limited seating. There is street parking out front and a small parking lot in the back. This is a no frills place and you would not hang around for the ambiance or vibe. The staff here was EXTREMELY nice! Service was outstanding and very friendly! I would come back for the service alone! I got the strip basket which comes with large chicken strips, sauce, fries and pickles. There is an option to add cole slaw and toast as well for an additional $2. There are different spice levels. If you are truly "Midwest" and think Ketchup is spicy, do the Minnesota nice. I did the mid- coop (mild) and my lips were starting to burn! If you love heat, you will definitely like this place! Some of the tenders felt like they still had the tendon in them, I am a texture person on chicken and I didn't care for that, so I dropped a star. I also felt like the tenders were lacking in a bit a flavor, even tho it was clear they were dusted with a lot of spices. The fries had plenty of flavor and the sauce was very good. Overall I would come back but probably take my food to go with the limited seating and no fun vibes/atmosphere. read more

I've been here a few times, each time noticing the general lack of cleanliness and organization of the staff. The last time I went, I paid the price with a nice bout of food poisoning. The food here is 3.5-4 stars depending on what you get. The chicken at the higher spice levels has some serious heat, and the seasoned Mac & Cheese is solid. At the end of the day though, chicken is one meat you can't play with in terms of safe preparation. Given that, I won't be back. read more

Bonsoir tout le monde ! This place is my go to when I'm down in the cities, I don't eat much fried chicken. But, when I do Nashville Coop will do! Their chicken is mouth watering, it literally melts in your mouth. It's like eating butter that tastes like chicken. I definitely recommend trying, if you like chicken. Quick note, the Cole slaw is TRASH, definitely could use some sugar or something. I would say the people (as of late) aren't really the nicest when you're at the register. I mean they're not rude by any means, but they come off as you're being a burden and wasting their time. I just shrug it off, but some, it'll ruin their day. Again, I don't care as much, but wanted let others know in case they do mind. The inside is simple, nothing to write home about, but clean and nice. Very nice place to go for a party of one! À la prochaine ! read more

It's super hyped in Minneapolis. I saw somewhere where it was voted the best Nashville chicken. Personally I still prefer what Revolu did. I think it was OK. To be fair we took it home and maybe it's much better in person? I will give that caveat and try it again next time I'm in town. I definitely have had better Nashville, hot chicken sandwiches. So I'm glad I tried it, but it was just OK and wouldn't make me rush back. read more

Sooo delicious and so halal! We love a halal restaurant on a university campus. The ambiance was bumping and packed but we were able to find a seat and the food was delicious. The service was a bit slow and they only had two workers. They did their absolute best with only two employees working at dinner time. read more

Do you guys ever check the food you're serving? We ordered the Mac and cheese and I can't even find the right word to describe the texture. There were NO noodles, it was goo. Mushy goo. It was completely inedible. The fries were not much better, super soggy. The chicken sandwich was fine. Nothing like actual Nashville Hot chicken. Which makes me believe the owner(s)/creators have not actually had Nashville Hot chicken in Nashville. There wasn't any noticeable spice to any of the spices. Please, please do some QC on your product, because the food we received tonight was NOT worth our money, or our time to drive to pick it up and the time spent leaving you an honest review. I'd love to hear from the owner. read more

Stopped in for a takeout lunch. Super tasty sandwich and friendly service. Got the mild spice and that was just right.

Great service, great food. Better than Daves Hot Chicken. Clean, brings food to your table.

The Nashville Co-op on West 66th street and Penn in Richfield has the absolute best fried chicken that I have purchased in my lifetime. Crispy, done to perfection, extremely tender and seasoned perfectly...giving you three choices of heat or spiciness. I have only done takeout and they are remarkably fast in getting orders up and in your hands. Easy entrance into the lot off of west 66th street, or Penn Avenue when you are going south. I recommend the 'MN Nice' choice for spiciness out of the three choice levels, unless you really like spicy spicy. If you like/love SPICY HOT you can certainly order and get it that way. Quick, pick up on the way home. for a great diner dinner. read more

I love this place! I don't eat here often because #wedonthavefreehealthcare, but if we did...I might I always get the medium...very tasty! It's a NO DAWG for me on the mac N cheese and coleslaw doh! ‍ Service is ALWAYS ON POINT!!! Tip them, or you suck!! I always get it To-Go, bc it's always hot af in the restaurant and a tight squeeze. read more

Can you say huuuge portion sizes. My sammich meal ($14) literally lasted me 3 full meals haha. The meal included fries, some pickles, a side of coleslaw, and my chicken sammich. I chose to do the 2 chicken tenders instead of the chicken patty, and let me tell you... do that! If you don't finish, you can still eat the tenders without the bread + the chicken tenders are HUGE. Like the size of a baby's thigh. My only complaint was that it felt really really heavy and dense, part of why I couldn't eat everything at once. But those fries... delicious! For spice level, I normally kick it (no pun intended) at a mild-medium and got the "coop" spice level and it was perfect! If you like it on the spicier side, the cashier recommended "growlin," as it is the second most popular choice. read more

Nashville Coop - Sammich w/ chicken tenders ($14) - Chicken Shop Near Me - St Paul, Minnesota

Food 9/10 - Perfectly seasoned chicken tenders that are made to order. The menu was simple, the chicken and fries were perfectly cooked and all this at an incredibly reasonable price. Their house sauce that comes with the tenders beats out Cane's sauce any day of the week. I will definitely be coming back rather than going to another chicken tenders place. Service 9/10 - Great and fast service, straight forward ordering process and very easy to get utensils and napkins. Only minor complaint is that they don't have free water so be prepared if you go for some of the hotter spice levels for the chicken. Ambiance 8/10 - Low key spot with a color that pops and feels personal. Dining area could be a little cleaner but fried foods and sauces are generally messy so it's understandable. read more

Such a good place! The chicken wings are more seasoned than your regular run-of-the-mill chain chicken finger place. The sauce is absolutely to die for, I could drink it!!! The fries are also perfectly seasons in perfectly crispy, the staff is very fast with food, and very friendly!! The Texas toast could be a little more buttered, but other than that this was such a great meal, and we will definitely be going back! The ambience is very casual and it's a great place to just sit and chat!! read more

Nashville Coop - Chicken finger combos - Chicken Shop Near Me - St Paul, Minnesota

We are big NFL fans. This year we started a new tradition that also added some flair to our grocery and meal planning. We decided that for Thursday night football we would get a meal that represents the home team. For example the Chicago Bears we would get Chicago Pizza or Chicago dogs. For the Buffalo Bills we could do Buffalo wings. Well this week the Titans were playing so we went with some Nashville Hot Chicken. At Nashville Coop they have 5 different levels of spice. We placed a couple of orders for some of their strips. We went with MN Nice, Mini Coop and Coop. We elected to not try Growlin or Cluckin Hot. The MN Nice was as expected, savory and nice. There was more spice in the Mini Coop and just a bit more in the Coop. Just enough to get my lips to tingle. Just about right for me however I probably could have up to the Growlin. Maybe next time. The strips are large and stayed crunchy on our drive home. Their fries are battered and in our opinion, just OK. Very good place for some Nashville Hot Chicken, with options depending on how spicy you like it. read more

Crispy and fresh! Reminds me of Raising Cane's but way better for a variety of reasons. Locally made for Minnesota, there are currently two physical locations along with food trucks around the Twin Cities. When you think about supporting local, this is it! The service was friendly and kind. Nashville Coop is known for the hot chicken and because I am a wimp, I opted for the no spice called MN Nice. However, anyone that likes a little heat would find this spot very enjoyable as there is a spice scale that accommodates to all taste buds. I enjoyed the Texas Toast combo which came with jumbo tenders laid on toast with fries, pickles, coleslaw and coop sauce. Everything was perfect and I wouldn't change a darn thing. Roughly 5 tables towards the back of the interior allow for adequate seating and there's also a smaller front space to dine in at the bar and overlook Snelling Avenue. While I didn't have any room to try the Mac & Cheese, I look forward to my next trip here. Thank you! read more

The food was well seasoned, chicken was juicy, sauce was excellent and overall a good experience

The fries were so good and even better with the coop sauce. The pickles were just a standard sliced dill. I ordered the Cluckin' Hot tendies, they were damn hot! But they tasted so good I kept shoving it in my face. It was the first time I have had something so spicy that also had an abundance of flavor. Sometimes super spicy stuff just tastes like hot dirt, not this! I would have liked more crunch though. I'll go back to try the Mac & Cheese. Quick service too! read more

We made an impromptu trip here for lunch after seeing an online ad. The simplicity of the menu reminds me of Canes or other local hot chicken joints but even simpler. 5 levels of heat, tenders or tenders as a sandwich with fries. Tenders are large and the chicken was juicy. We got mild and medium heat. Medium had only minor heat and for someone who likes spice I probably should have chosen the hot. Fries needed to be cooked another minute or two as they were not crisp enough for my liking. The coop sauce isn't as good as Canes. Service was good and food was hot and fresh. I just am not very impressed with the whole chicken restaurant concept. I love good chicken wings but tenders are just not my jam. read more

These are big pieces of chicken! This is Raising Canes but hot... but the the chicken is almost double what canes is. This makes this a huge value play. I wasn't especially impressed with the seasoning on the chicken. I ordered Medium and it felt like there's almost zero heat. Also, the exterior is not crispy but chewy. It's not awful, but the crunch expected and desired was missing. Wanted to love it, but I thought it was just ok. read more

First time visiting this spot after wanting to try for some time now! A little more expensive than a regular fast food chicken place but cheaper than a sit down restaurant. The portion is pretty big (to me) so the price isn't too bad if you think about. There are 4 different food options (strips, sammich, waffle, and Texas toast) and 4 different spicy level (Mn nice, Coop, Growlin', Cluckin' hot)' to choose from. Sammich - it was huge and delicious. Comes with 2 chicken strips, French fries, pickles and slaws on the side. It was massive when I put it all together. Can get messy so have a lot of napkins ready. Comes with 2 container of sauce which is more than enough for me. The chicken was not dry but was hoping for it to be juicer. By the time we got home it was not as hot anymore. I got the Coop Spicy level and it was the right amount of spicy for me and I can eat spicy food. Probably won't be able to handle the Growlin'. I did not finish the sammich. 4/5 Waffle and Chicken- Comes with 1 big waffle and 3 strips, syrup, and 2 sauces. Bf got the Mn nice and it's pretty much super mild. He can't handle spicy but after trying mine, he wants to get the Coop next time. The waffle is big. 4/5 Strips - comes with 3 strips, fries, pickles and 2 sauces. Also got the Growlin' level. 4/5 Sauce- nothing too special in my opinion. Tastes like Mayo with hot sauce in it. 2/5 Honestly, I would recommend getting the Sammich because it was SO Good with everything in it! Social distance- small spot with not a lot of space so not a lot of social distancing. Suggest to call ahead to order so you can pick up but don't wait too long or it'll be cold. read more

This new little gem in Mac-Groveland is a nice addition. We got the Texas toast sammie - which include creamy coleslaw, crispy good fries, coop sauce, few housemade pickles, toast and 3 giant perfectly fried chicken tenders. With both picked the Growlin' spice... wow they are not kidding when they say it's got some heat. Not MN heat at all. Darn good spicy burn. Don't rub your eyes! Super friendly, Covid-19 clean. Need a couple diet soda choices. Other than that we will be back. Some really good chicken ! read more

Coming from Connecticut, I've only recently been introduced to companies like raisin cane's. I lived on their chicken baskets all throughout college. I thought that was top tier until I was recently introduced to the Nashville Coop. Their chicken has so much more quality and flavor. Plus the cajun fries and sauce they use is over the top. This is a place I go whenever I need a pick-me-up. The only complaint I would have is the inconsistency. Sometimes I'd go in to order my meal and receive slightly different items than ordered. Not enough of a big deal to go back and exchange, but something to look out for before leaving with your to-go order! read more
