Raising Cane's operates on a simple premise and executes it well enough that the simplicity never feels like a limitation. We walked into a straightforward fast food space that stays busy, particularly on weekends, with an energy that matches the straightforward menu. The restaurant is clean and functional, designed around getting people in and out efficiently without sacrificing the quality of what comes out of the kitchen. The menu is deliberately narrow, built around chicken fingers and the handful of sides and sauces that complement them, and that focus pays off in the consistency of what we ordered. The chicken fingers are the obvious centerpiece and they held up, crispy on the outside and juicy throughout without the greasiness that brings down a lot of fast food fried chicken. The sauce is the thing that turns a good chicken finger into the reason people come back. Creamy and tangy with a slight kick, it plays well against the chicken and makes every component on the tray work better with it than without. Ordering an extra cup is the right move, and most regulars do it without thinking twice. The Texas toast is genuinely one of the better versions of the format at a fast food chain, buttery and slightly crisp in a way that earns its place on the tray rather than just filling it. The crinkle cut fries are solid without being remarkable, and the coleslaw does its job as a palate break between the richer items. The staff is a consistent highlight at this location, with an energy and friendliness that stands out in a category where that kind of engagement is rare. Order accuracy can slip during the heaviest rushes, so checking the bag before leaving is worth the extra moment. For a fast food stop that knows exactly what it is and delivers on that promise consistently, Raising Cane's is a reliable choice. read more

Stopped in on a Sunday . Chik fil a next door is closed Sundays and now Canes is taking their Sunday business and now better chicken offerings and the chicken quality is better than Chik fil a . I usually go to KFC a block away for a meal. I wanted the chicken fingers and I ordered the 4 piece combo to dine in. Service was quick and was packed to go? Receipt clearly says dine in? The counter guy , He unpacks and puts on a tray. Chicken tenders were moist, juicy, cooked perfect and breading perfect... issue was bland taste to chicken? Needs spices of offer a spiced version? Fries were ok, but many small dinky fries? The guy gave me ketchup packs which were Heinz . I also got ketchup at the self serve by the drinks self serve. The self serve ketchup tasted different and not Heinz ? The Canes sauce... they serve only one with the meal. They charge 49 cents it appears for additional sauce. The hey are stingy with the sauce vs. unlimited at Chik fil a ? One sauce not enough for 4 pieces for me.... The interior and vibe , music is attractive and appealing to the young crowd vs family or senior dining at Chik Fila . Very good chicken and 4 pieces meal priced reasonable . The Cole slaw was excellent and a high light. The bread toasted looked a 1/2 of a hot dog roll? It was only toasted on one side? No garlic toast flavors at all? It was a decent meal and welcome alternative to KFC or Chik Fil A who is closed Sundays and prices high? Canes I didn't see a shake drink Offering or a desert , or ice cream option unless I missed it ... I would like a great salad with one or two of these chicken tenders cut up on it. read more

See all

The place is new and clean, but a little chilly inside for dining in the day we were there. Staff is friendly and ordering was easy. The food was solid, as it tasted fresh. The only thing you can get here are chicken fingers/tenders, then likely a drink and fries and/or texas toast. The toast is more like a toasted hotdog bun but its so yummy when it comes out fresh at the restaurant. This place is very closely located to Dave's Hot chicken and also Chik Fil A, and is a worthy try if you haven't had them yet. The only thing to note is that their signature sauce is a little bit more tangy, and I personally prefer Dave's sauce over this one. It's all good though, as you can also just use plain ketchup. They also have teas that are popular, but we stay away from those due to the high sugar/calories haha. We've sometimes ordered the tenders platter as it is cost effective and you get a ton of tenders (like 25 or so) that comes in a foil tray. We're looking forward to returning here again. read more

This is the best Raising Cane's location I have ever had, it easily tops the BU/Back Bay locations in Boston. They also have a drive-thru, which is super efficient. The staff is friendly and the food is always hot. They always accommodate my request for extra Texas Toast! The chicken at this location is juicier and more flavorful than some of the other locations I've tried, and the French fries are saltier (which I like). And to be honest, I could drink the Canes pink sauce if it was socially acceptable. Best Canes location ever!!! read more

I've been waiting forever to try this place and I didn't love it. I'd say the sauce is good but the chicken is just OK and the fries are just OK. For me Dave's hot chicken as far as superior , both the chicken and the fries, plus they give you pickles. That's just me read more

C992-Cochituate & Concord - 6 finger combo - Chicken Shop Near Me - Framingham, Massachusetts

The over all place looks nice. The chicken was moist but no flavor. The music was nice. It was nice to try a place everyone's been talking about. The bread that came with the meal was way too buttery for me. The bread looked like a hot dog roll. My husband can cook better fried chicken and fries. The fries were cold and not very good. But the art work is amazing and it's welcoming but the food wasn't the best. read more

I called Raising Canes and they are making it up to me. Thank you. That said, I returned and once again ordered 10 tenders to go, but this time I counted them before I drove off. There were only nine. I walked to the drive through window and they quickly did more than make up for the mistake. The tenders are good, my son loves them. But if you do drive thru, I highly recommend checking your order before you drive off. read more

Chicken is so moist. Crinkle cut fries and Texas toast made the meal. Fresh coleslaw and a drink reasonably priced read more

The chicken at Raising Caine's is the best fast food chicken that I have ever eaten. The coating is crispy and the chicken is moist and tasty. read more

Food is good , but wish can order chicken on a single items in stead of a box , coleslaw great service is fast as well. Drive through is quick read more

HORRIBLE! We ordered our food 2 hours ago, we live 20 minutes away, and all we got was a singular lemonade and none of the chicken or bread or fries or anything we ordered. Didn't refund us for it, if this happens again I will be walking into the restraint and yelling at the manager. read more

I like their chicken tenders. Compared to other fast food places like McDonald's and KFC, Raising Cane's tenders are really meaty (VS half meat and half breading). They are well seasoned for my taste (other fast food places are way too salty for me). I also like the dipping sauce (also not too salty). The sweet ice tea is also good and my daughter liked the lemonade (real lemonade and not the artificial kind that tastes like toilet bowl cleaner). Shout out to the staff who were very nice. I will definitely be back. read more

This was my first time here the chicken tasted really good the cole sole was very good the sauce that that you dip with the chicken was salty, This is my thoughts read more

Chicken was moist and fresh, but it had zero seasoning lol no salt on the fries either, toast was the best part. Good place but I'll bring it home so I can season everything read more

Wow can't believe the lack of quality. Let me start by saying I absolutely love canes and I understand the restaurant buisness and it's gonna take a few weeks to get everything right, but I just can't ignore this. Absolutely everything was undercooked, the fries were soggy and soft with no seasoning, the chicken had no color and the coating was wet and extremely thin to the point where it fell off to the touch no crunch or crispness at all, and the toast was over buttered and extremely soggy. We had two 3 piece meals that were both exactly like this . Once again I understand the fact that it is a new location, however after months of anticipation I was terribly disappointed, I mean come on guys not even the toast was right. For a chain restaurant you either need better management or better training as one or the other clearly isn't happening. Anyways defenitly won't be back to that one for a while, if you really want canes just go to Marlborough or just hit Dave's next door it's at least crispy. Hopefully this saves someone a buck and some time not sitting in that crazy line! Ps Adding this just now after trying the "lemonade" it's basically just lemon water. read more
