I've been to the other Coop and this one is equally as good.. Wings were crisp and had good flavor and the service was attentive and provided an accurate wait time.

Corn nuggets, fried green tomato, seasoned fries, hot honey gold chicken wings
Adrienne S.

First time here and won't be back. I ordered a lot of food to try different things. The corn nuggets tasted old. The fried green tomatoes breading was so thick and not seasoned, the fries under cooked and I didn't like the banana pudding. The wings were ok. I got the hot honey gold wings. It came with one slice of carrot and 1 slice of celery.

PLEASE DONT SUPPORT THIS COMPANY.

Is it possible to give zero stars? Shortly after ordering my food, I was quietly watching one of 4 TV's they have for waiting guests and I asked can the channel be changed to the Masters(GOLF). The owner instantly look disgruntled as if I asked can I date his daughter while a younger employee changed the channel to accommodate me. So I'm sitting there minding my own business then all of a sudden the channel changes! I look back and it's the owner with the remote! I asked respectfully "What happened to the golf channel?" He replied "Don't nobody wanna watch no Golf, that's my TV!......" I asked for a refund and left. I'm a student pilot at the near by Olive Branch airport. I came to this place FAITHFULLY for a bite before my flights. I hat to say this as an African American about a Black owned business by WHEN I SAY I'LL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN, I MEAN IT. Don't support these type of people and businesses.

Way too expensive. Winchester location is much more affordable. They charged $1 for using your card.
Rhiannon K.

Service was cool, food was ok... nothing special. WAY TOO MUCH sodium. I will not be back to this location, honestly because they're just way too expensive. We'll just stick to the winchester location for now. I don't like how they charge a service charge? For what? Using a card? I guess. At least give us a heads up.

Fast service. It was clean. Looked for chicken gizzards everywhere and they had them and they were pretty good. I just happened to see it because it's tucked away by a dentist's office.

While I love good customer service, nothing beats a hole in the wall place with a single specialty done well. That's what you get here. CC has some of the best wings I have ever had in my life. The seasoned are my favorites by far. They are whole wings not the little pieces you get at most places. They cook them all to order so expect about a 15-20 minute wait for cooking. When it's really busy you can see the smoke in the air and people standing everywhere. Get it to-go because this is again, not the place for ambiance or customer service! They have one old TV and and a few plastic tables and folding chairs for those bold enough to dine in. Bottom line, great wings! The best within 10 miles of Olive Branch! Try the seasoned fries too! Awesome!

Suicide wings. Yummy!
Brian L.

These were the best wings I've ever had. Even better than my own. The wings were worth 5 stars, but I'm deducting one for some problems I had. I ordered them as hot as they can possibly make them. He called them suicide wings. I found them to be manageable, but they were hot. Most places don't seem to know how to make them hot, but I like what they did here. It is hard to get hot sauce or wing sauce to stick to them, therefore it's hard to get heat. The chicken coop uses a thick gooey hot sauce and has loads of crushed red peppers stuck to them. They were hot, but not unbearable. Most places tend to overcook wings like they have a hard time knowing when they are done. The result is dry and chewy. Not here. These wings are juicy and succulent. The lemonade was great. They didn't have the onion rings I asked for, so I settled on fries. These were just ok crinkle fries. Should have skipped that. The roll was just out of a bag. I was the only one eating here while lots of people purchased orders for takeout. They turned down a customer and sent her away because they do take credit cards, but not master card. There are fans and junk on some of the tables, preventing their use. The kitchen door is crumbling to pieces. How about some maintenance? You have to go through the back of their kitchen to get to the bathroom, where I found a bunch of junk storage and a broken down cooler. There were three empty soap dispensers in the bathroom and not one drop of soap in any of them. No paper towels in the bathroom. Do these guys wash their hands? How? I would have graded them a lot harder had the wings not been so great. They have burgers, fish, chicken, and other stuff, but I didn't get to see any because all their business is takeout. Adam is right. Get your wings and leave!

I ordered a 15 piece honey gold . Very good food and customer service. I will definitely be back. The food was really fresh and hot. Worth the money. It came with only about 6 carrots and no celery at all.

This place is yummy! Service is great!

The food at Guthrie's Olive Branch (8277 McGregor Crossing) is always clean and tastes great, which…read moreis why I've been a frequent customer. However, the customer service needs serious improvement. Recently, I went through the drive-thru and got home to find no ketchup or utensils in my bag. When I called to speak with the manager, I explained that this was the second time I've had issues. Instead of handling the situation professionally, the manager was combative, told me the GM instructed them not to give ketchup unless asked, and then hung up on me when I asked for their name. Good food doesn't make up for poor service. Hanging up on a customer and dismissing feedback is unacceptable. Guthrie's needs to train staff better because this experience makes me think twice about returning.

New year, new deductible! Let's do this! I'm not sure when this place came about, but my coworkers in Jackson, MS swear that this was the original chicken tender, crinkle fry, soggy toast concept before any of the others. It seems unlikely. They are often full of poo. I place my order in the app, then roll up to the speaker, let them know I am there, and it's in my hand with no further ado. It's always been a smooth process and my food is generally handed to me within 30 seconds of stopping at the window. In most cases, you can expect old food in a process such as this. This is where this place excels among the other fried chicken pushers. It's always hot and fresh. That is what makes it so great to me. If I want fried chicken (which is kinda all of the time), then I really would prefer it to be hot and fresh. Call me old fashioned if you want, and don't get me wrong, I'll eat old cold chicken faster than you can say KFC. Nailed it, home run, you go, Guthrie, you old chicken peddling snake.... It's a fast food place. Don't take your date here unless he/she is really ugly and/or eats a lot. That would maybe be a good reason to bring your significant other here I suppose. I just eat in the car.... away from all you strange people. '25 1/111

The place looks new and nice, but the tables and chairs should be replaced to make the interior. The only thing really keeping this rating from being a 5 star though is that almost everything was over cooked. Except the cornbread muffin. That thing was so soft, moist, and a little sweet too. The sample appetizer had a lot of good flavors. The honey gold was delicious, but the wings were dry from being over cooked. The mozzarella sticks had a thick batter that made it a bit hard. The best appetizer was the southwest egg roll. I had the chicken Philly cheese, the chicken was over cooked on that too. As well as the onion rings. It all had a good flavor though. My husband had the pulled pork burger and it was pretty big, but also big flavors. This place is out of the way for us, but I wouldn't mind coming back and seeing if maybe it was just an off day.

This place has beaten out The Chicken Coop for my favorite wings in Olive Branch!…read more It is the third or fourth version of this place in the last 10 years or so. Kingz, Queenz, and now AAA! That is high class right there! I'm expecting Diamond, or maybe even Platinum wings to show up if this one doesn't make it. They offer 30% off DoorDash orders and stay open way later than the Coop. They are also fast and listen to special instructions most of the time. I have never actually set foot inside this version so I have no idea what is going on. I have decided it's probably best that our relationship stays that way. My favorite wing flavor is honey hot, but I recently had the Hot version and was really happy with the flavor. I need to branch out and try some of the other specialty type flavors they offer. They did send some terribly underdone wings once, so now I ask for extra crispy every single time I order. The corn nuggets, although a factory created stuperfood, are really freaking tasty. They normally hit it with the fry seasoning and damn it's good. C got a burger once and I cannot find the picture, but she was not a fan. Not sure why. She is normally the ying to my yang, so I'll just believe her. Fries are meh and normally arrive limp and soggy so I don't do those any more. I'll just keep on keeping on with the chicken wings. Some relationships are just meant to be a certain way. No need to push boundaries or gamble on the unknown. That's me and AAA wings! Just chill. '25 - 70/111

Let's do this! One of the best ways to circumvent bad service, food outages, and an overall plethora of problems is to download any fast food app that you plan on visiting. Load that junt on your phone, add your payment, and order through the app. Cut out so much bs and these folks love rewarding you in the app. Then you can just roll up to the speaker and say your name, no discussion, just pull up. I believe this has 100% up'ed all of my fast food experiences. Plus. Free. Stuff! If they are out of something, they seem to overly make up for it in other ways while knocking the original item off your check. Win win I have developed a theory that most feedback these stores receive nowadays is through their apps. Therefore, they don't want to piss you off in the app so you won't be a snitch.
