    Had to stop and try here as we were driving down past and saw it was on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives! It didn't disappoint. We had chicken tenders, deviled eggs, macaroni, and mashed potatoes and tried the house comeback sauce, and honey mustard. All was served so fresh, warm and so tasty!!!! The service was so good the lady the checked us out was so kind! Prices were reasonable and portions were large. We would definitely return as we left stuffed and happy! Yum!

    Nashville, hot chicken strips and waffles

    Fast, friendly and delicious . Would be a fun place to visit on the patio when it's not snowing. Chicken was tender and waffles were fluffy. My husband really enjoyed the Nashville hot chicken sandwich as well. From Southern California, we are hot chicken connoisseurs, and this hit the spot.

    We have this little thing where we like as foodies to try as many Guy Fieri Diner's Drive In's and Dive's adventures. Relying on fellow Yelp reviews, we happened to stumble across Roost Fried Chicken unbeknownst at first that it happened to be a triple D visit on season 29 episode 2. We were pleasantly surprised and if given the opportunity, we definitely will visit again. Service was great and food was terrific. We had a (1/2 a bucket) 4 piece classic fried chicken meal with double collard greens, because if you know me, I'm a green fanatic. We also got the Alabama Sammy with extra pickles with a side of Mac & cheese. The Alabama had a nicely grilled bun on both sides which gave a nice crunch as you took a bite. It was like a heavenly creamy chicken salad sandwich without fruit or nuts. The pickle slices added a nice tang and the white sauce had a bit of pleasant heat at the end. The Mac & cheese sadly was rather plain and dry. Maybe just an off day for it. Now back to the stars of the show. The chicken was so moist, flavorful and delicious, we regretted only getting a 4 piece. My hubby was sympathetic to me eyeing him devouring his chicken, so he shared a leg with me. Now let m tell you, I'm one to get picked on for "not knowing how to properly pick a chicken bone clean." I'm pretty sure not a shred of any chicken remnants were left on that leg bone. Really THAT delicious! And the collard greens....perfectly seasoned (I love heavy handed course ground black pepper and it certainly was.) Now, if only Roost Fried Chicken can hook a sister up and do some overnight delivery I'd be ecstatic. And lastly, try their homemade hand squeezed fresh lemonade served in a mason jar. Refreshing and the perfect accompaniment to our meal. They also served freshly brewed unsweetened as well as southern sweet tea. They do have a nice outside patio with several tables and chairs to visit and make new friends. Tables are inside as well but we went on a gorgeous day and several patrons chose the outside seating option.

    Home made Lemonade! Best ever!

    Best chicken sandwich I ever tasted! Friendly service with a great fun ambiance! Outside seating just tops it off so if ya have a dog get ready to go and enjoy!

    Travel week so I decided to head over to the Triple D Restaurant!!! Small spot, good for groups of 4, if your numbers are higher call before time. I did the take out option. Service was good and I was able to customize my order!!! Tasted southern to me, no complaints!!!

    This place was sooo good. I had the Nashville hot sandwich and a sweet tea and it was so tasty! The chicken was made to perfection. The service was pretty fast and I like the decorations inside and how the menu is on the wall. I would definitely come back to eat here when I visit Bozeman!

    Everything was hot and fresh. They have fried green tomatoes right now and they are the bomb. The chicken tenders were hot and tender and the fries were fresh. The chicken sandwich had just the right amount of sweet and salty with the slaw. Would eat here again!

    Not the best chicken I have had and definitely not the best service. The first time I came to Bozeman was 2020 and I came back in 2023 and the town is booming. Over tourism has definitely caused sub par eateries. The chicken I got tasted like it has been sitting there awhile, fries were cold and soda was flat. Not a good combination. The star of the show was the biscuit that came with my meal. Parking was hectic as it is a small lot and limited seating instead as well. Located on a Main Street in Bozeman. When in the area, I probably wouldn't go back. Super chix in town is good. Make the drive to Whitehall and check out two bit saloon for good chicken!

    Outside seating with a perfect spot to provide water for a dog

    Stopped in for a late lunch while driving through town. Had the Carolina BBQ sandwich (a hearty piece of chicken with a wonderful coating and the sauce was wonderfully tangy and went well with the coleslaw) and the chicken strips (perfectly cooked, juicy and tender with a nice, crunchy coating). The folks were so polite and there was a perfect spot to sit outside with our dog.

    Chicken and Waffles (Nashville Hot)
    Sawyer M.

    Insane food. Got the chicken and waffles with nashville hot on the strips, unbelievable! Very good waffles, and chicken was amazing. Would recommend this to everyone!!

    Ed-man H.

    The chicken sandwich was light and airy, not greasy at all. Their special sauce and toasted bun finshed off the great sandwich. The place is small and quaint and no frills. The biscuit was plain, no need to order it unless you dipping it i ln something.

    Hailey G.

    Really tasty! I got the sweet heat fried chicken with a side of collard greens and Mac & cheese. The Mac wasn't too flavorful, but the collard greens and chicken were wonderful. The sweet heat is perfectly spicy and the chicken was juicy. Next time I want to try their Nashville hot sandwich! They also have a dog friendly patio which was a huge plus.

    We live in Belgrade and we're excited to try this restaurant because you can't find very many good chicken places in Belgrade or Bozeman Montana. We were really excited first off. We had to wait a 40 min because they said they had shortstaffed. We ordered the original chicken and they said it would take longer which it did take an abundance time. There were a bunch of young girls there and all they did was talk and gossip the whole time super loud when they finally called my order up they said that I could have another side. I ordered the half bucket I had got okra, which was cold and day old tasting. The Coleslaw, which had so much mayonnaise in it, it was like soup and then my Free one, because they took so long was, potatoes and gravy. That was the only thing in the whole meal that was worth eating. The chicken was so greasy tasted truly disgusting. I really think that this place might have it going at times but it sure wasn't the time we went which was Tuesday, December 9 approximately 530.
