Plucked Up Menu
James O.

A wonderful welcome to Columbus, Georgia Fantastic food, unparalleled service and homey ambiance

So far so good food menu and ambience is amazing. Everything on the menu look good. Want to eat everything in sight. Very friendly and very southern hospitality.

Crispy chicken salad

Me and wife stopped in here for a late lunch. We were able to get a table but as we were walking up quite a few people were leaving so I believe it gets pretty crowded and it's not very large. The waitress was extremely friendly as were all the staff there. I got the 4 piece chicken strips with biscuit and tots as a side. The wife got the crispy chicken salad. My strips were very good. Not huge but decent size and cooked and seasoned well. The tots were also good and very crispy. Now the biscuit was phenomenal. The wife said her salad was also great. Lettuce and ingredients were crisp and fresh and the chicken was delicious. Would definitely go back.

First, the restaurant itself is an eclectic burst of pure joy, who could not like those giant chickens? Second, it has a trap door! For whatever reason, I absolutely love a secret door! Third, Tanya was wonderful! She recommended the perfect breakfast for our taste buds and was a wealth of information. Finally, the food was hot, fresh and so very D-LISH-US! Those biscuits, yummy!

The waitress was nice and kept calling us "baby" and "baby girl". Must be a thing in the South. The food was decent. But the fried chicken was a bit heavy and the decor a bit too kitschy for me personally.

Thats the way to start a day!!!

A great spot downtown Columbus, great service from Tonya and the food comes out fast.... Like a rocket! Very cool vibe inside with lots to look at in the 1 minute until food arrives. Lol. Biscuits are huge and perfect as is the sausage/ ham/ breakfast potatoes and eggs. A must go!

The place was super cozy. Service was very quick and friendly. The food came out very quick and was fresh. The tater tots were so crispy and flavorful. Large portion sizes, left feeling very full. Even got offered a coffee to take in a to go cup.

Plucked Up Chicken & Biscuits is a downtown Columbus, GA breakfast/lunch eatery, of course, specializing in chicken and biscuits. Serving breakfast and lunch for over a decade, Plucked Up is a sister restaurant of Mark's City Grill and Hunter's Pub & Steakhouse, all concepts of restauranteer Mark Jones. My husband is from Columbus, GA, so we have a tradition of visiting for Thanksgiving. We stayed a little longer than normal to attend a family mini-reunion held at the nearby Hampton Inn Columbus Downtown. We were starving and needed a quick bite to eat, and Plucked Up was the closest non-fast food restaurant open. Plucked Up is an intimate eatery with exposed brick walls showcasing brightly colored, eclectic meets country decor. The wait staff was super friendly and welcoming despite a packed eatery. Our to-go order came out so quickly, I didn't finish taking my usual quantity of pictures. We both ordered Plucked Up Biscuits (my husband added an egg to his). I am actually shaking my head as to why we hadn't been to Plucked Up during prior visits to Columbus. The biscuits were buttery and fluffy, the chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the pineapple marmalade had the right level of sweetness. I was eyeing the biscuit beignets being served as we walked out, and something tells me that the chelsea (fried chicken, pimento cheese, bacon, and jalapeño jelly) will be life-affirming.

It was busy and lively for Thursday morning, I bet it is packed during the weekend rush hours. The interior was funky and fun, with lots of interesting things on display. It was a nice size with a good number of tables and chairs, and also had a small bar counter with handful of seats. Their menu was separated into three sections, easy to see and understand exactly what you are gong to get. Since this is a place that focuses on Chicken and Biscuit, we made sure to get something with Chicken and Biscuit. We went with 2 Egg Breakfast and The Chicken Coop, with a cup of coffee which came with free refills. 2 Egg Breakfast can have choice of meat with additional charge. We added fried chicken. The fried chicken pieces did not look like much, but they were great! It was finger-licking good! Grits had solid flavor and comforting. The biscuit was so fluffy and airy, buttery and delicious! We were very happy with this order. The Chicken Coop was much bigger in portion than expected, and what a display! We added fried chicken to this order as well. It was very good, a comfort food at its best! It had everything you want in every bite. It sure was the champion of breakfast. We had a really nice breakfast here. It seems like it was very popular among the locals, and I can understand the reason why. The service was very friendly and welcoming. The food is affordable and comforting. We enjoyed every bite!

Chicken biscuit combo

Fluffy, filling and fresh, and was a pretty damn good biscuit! The small custom designed inside vibe was cool too and the menu items named after the owners family members was a nice touch! However, it took a whileeeeeee to get my order taken, get my food and get the check , I don't know if they were understaffed or what!

Santa Chicken

The food was very good & unique. I had Plucked Up Chicken eggs Benedict over biscuits. The ham was real ham sliced thick covered by the eggs & the Benedict sauce. The ambience was appealing and also unique. Very friendly people and reasonably priced.

Plucked up was DELICIOUS!!! Quick and great service. It was very very busy but so worth the wait!

Came here on a Saturday night with my partner. No reservations so we grabbed a seat at the bar,…read morethis is the pro move. Richard (bartender) and Adrienne (our server) were fantastic. Both provided recommendations when ask and were extremely accommodating and personable. We ordered a bottle of the Grillo which was an excellent value and delicious white wine. I prefer Sauvignon Blanc and this did not disappoint. For dinner we tried the ravioli and meatball parm (Adrienne's recommendation) both were delicious! We have plenty of leftovers to last us. Ended the meal with house made absinthe (my partner swears it tasted like gummy bears) and limoncello. Do not sleep on Gabagool! Service was phenomenal, drinks were fun and food was delicious. We felt like we were at Nona's house!

The Pilsner, while possessing an undeniably appealing flavor profile, arrived at room…read moretemperature--a cardinal sin that dulled its crispness and muddled its intended nuances, leaving it tasting flatter than it deserved. In stark contrast, the Lemoncello Cheesecake Martini proved an absolute delight: rich, creamy, and lush with bright lemonade notes. Intensely satisfying and dangerously drinkable, one could happily indulge in a gallon of this velvety concoction. Service brought its own inconsistencies. Our waitress was pleasant and attentive, cheerfully assisting with menu navigation. However, requests for ice water were met repeatedly with room-temperature glasses, requiring multiple reminders that never quite resolved the issue. The menu itself presented a minor puzzle--the dessert section was absent, leaving us uncertain whether a separate dessert menu existed or if options had simply been overlooked. The appetizers shone brightly. The Fried Green Tomatoes arrived as a visually stunning plate (we had already dispatched two of the four slices before snapping a photo). The breading was on the heavier side yet carried solid flavor, while the accompanying sauces stole the show. The marinara was exceptional--deep, fresh, and layered with complexity; one could easily envision bottling it. The cream sauce provided a lovely counterpoint to the vibrant pesto, which surprised me (as a general pesto skeptic) with its balanced texture and multifaceted flavor profile. The Burrata and Charcuterie-style starter was equally successful. Featuring a generous bowl of creamy burrata, two varieties of sweet jam, assorted cured meats, and crusty bread, it invited creative assembly into custom crostini. This interactive element added an innovative, playful touch while delivering robust, harmonious flavors. Unfortunately, the main courses told a more mixed story. The Sausage and Broccolini pasta was a clear disappointment. Visually, it arrived swimming in excess grease that overwhelmed the palate from the first few bites onward and very muted tones. While the pasta was perfectly cooked, the broccolini retained a pleasant crunch, and the sausage offered good initial flavor and texture, the sheer quantity of oil coated everything, rendering subsequent tastes one-dimensional and heavy. In hindsight, the Shrimp Caprese might have been the wiser choice, though the menu's lack of portion detail gave pause. My husband's Chicken Parmesan fared better. The cutlet showed a darker presentation that stopped short of burnt, and while the visual appeal suffered slightly, the flavor delivered. The pasta was cooked beautifully with a well-balanced sauce portion, and the generous cutlet itself was tender and satisfying--a solid, classic execution. Overall, the meal had moments of real brilliance, particularly in the appetizers and that unforgettable martini, tempered by execution missteps in temperature control and richness management. A restaurant with clear potential, though one that would benefit from tighter attention to fundamentals.

If you're anywhere near downtown Columbus, this needs to be your stop. The Old Fashioned was beautifully balanced, garnished with a gorgeous orange peel, and at $10 it's an absolute steal -- honestly, they could charge more and it'd still be worth it. My wife is vegetarian and had the pasta, which she loved just as much -- great sauce, feta, sunflower seeds for crunch. This place genuinely has something for everyone, carnivore or not. Add in a waiter who was on point the whole meal and that down-home Southern ambiance (exposed brick, string lights, the whole vibe), and you've got a restaurant that nails food, drinks, and atmosphere all at once.

You gotta find what you love and stick with it!…read more That is what I think of this place. Everyone seems to find one sandwich, and that is the one they go for. I have tried to veer off and try new things, but I am always disappointed. I am never disappointed with my go to of the Momma Love. I am also always pleased with their salads. Very large, and you can build your own. The service is so-so. Just depends on the day. However, no one has ever been rude to me.

I had a seat for a while but didn't get to sample everything; still, it's interesting that the soups change daily. The broader menu covers the expected bases: salads, dessert wraps, sandwiches, and the rest. Soft drinks are the usual Coke products, plus sweet and unsweet tea. The sweet tea leans hard into Southern style--properly, almost aggressively sweet. The unsweet, however, was closer to brown water than tea; it lacked any real tea character. When we ordered, the server asked how much ice we wanted. I'm still puzzled why there's no dedicated fountain service for it, but we both received half cups of crushed ice, which I appreciate--especially on a hot August day. The open kitchen is a plus; you can watch your food being prepared. A word of caution on the photos: the posted images show generous, meaty sandwiches that bear little resemblance to what actually arrives on the plate. The Mama's Pastrami arrived on warm, seeded rye with pickles and mustard. The pickle added a pleasant crunch and a welcome acidic lift. The bread had a good chew and was easy to bite through, and the sandwich was served warm. The pastrami itself had a decent texture but was frustratingly short on that deep, peppery, cured flavor you expect from proper pastrami. The real issue, though, was portion: there was hardly any meat. What should have been a piled-high deli sandwich felt closer to a quarter or half of the expected quantity--disappointing for a place that positions itself as a deli. The Mama's Love came on a steamed bun with roast beef, turkey, ham, and Muenster. The combination of meats and cheese had solid flavor--salty, savory, the kind of profile that works well--but again the volume was disheartening. Even with three meats, the sandwich was roughly 99 percent bread, a whisper of cheese, and maybe a tablespoon of actual protein. For the price and the deli expectation, it felt thin. I'm still weighing whether this place deserves a second visit. It's essentially the only deli near the base that offers pastrami, which counts for something. But the consistent skimping on meat makes me hesitate. A deli sandwich should feel abundant; these did not
