Having lived in the south for several years in the past, I find it hard to find good chicken places. I'm so glad my husband decided not to use MapQuest because we found Owen's Hot Chicken while trying to navigate back to the hotel.
We had the chicken sandwich, fries, and hand-muddled tea (Jasmine-plum-lime tea and guava-lime). The chicken tenders in the sandwich were huge, juicy, flavorful pieces of chicken covered in tasty, crunchy breading snuggled in a warm soft bun. We ordered medium spicy...definitely go with less spicy/not spicy if you cannot handle the "heat." The magic sauce used definitely enhanced the overall flavor of the sandwich. The fries were thick cut fries. - crunchy on the outside but "potatoey" on the inside. The teas...words will do them no justice so all I'll say is we bought two more to go. The staff were very courteous, helpful, and patient when we couldn't decide on what to order...they didn't give us the stink eye, and we ate so glad their recommendations worked out well for our taste buds and bellies. We leave Cheyenne tomorrow and have planned to return to Owen's Hot Chicken, using MapQuest, to fill up before we go. God bless you, Owen's Hot Chicken. read more
