Church’s Chicken

This spot is open 24 hours and is a short walk from our house. That means we only visit between 1 – 4 in the morning on weekends. And when we visit, we’re hungry and somewhat desperate.
We always get the same thing. I get a 2-​piece chicken leg meal. The Hubster gets a chicken sandwich. We spirit it home and mow it down like a pair of disgusting hyenas. And we love every single minute of it. I find their chicken actually better than KFC and I don’t get that instant gut rot upon finishing my meal. The servings are also much larger.
Service is always friendly, which is much more than you say about other spots open late. Because it’s not close to an kind of night life, it isn’t full of terrible partiers, either.
I hope this place stays around forever.

The food was nothing special. I think I had better fried chicken at KFC… the restaurant was pretty new and clean, but the service was slow and somewhat incompetent. They made several mistakes with our simple order and requests.
Avoid the chicken tenders. They have no flavour and they’re not that crispy…
Go to Popeyes I say! Better chicken and always fast service.

I’m a huge fan of fried chicken this place serves the good really well. The chicken is super crunchy on the outside which I love and on the inside it’s just amazing. It’s totally worth the buy

Came here last week for lunch/​breakfast. My ex-​roomate is a big fan of popeyes and I wanted to see how this would stack up. Of course, Im not a huge fan of fried chicken so I opted for the Chicken nugget option. They were good but a little small. fries were nice. Not alot of staff and service was a bit slow.

This place is just ok!
It’s no Popeyes but I love their French fries. Something about crinkle cut fries brings me back to childhood lol
Their chicken needs some spice and seasoning and Color. It’s cooked but its so pale, it lacking seasoning I think.
It’s no Popeyes lol
I like the honey butter glazed biscuits!
This place is just ok. I would go if I was on st. Clair didn’t want to spend much money and was Starving!

I was in the St Clair/​Dufferin area for work with a coworker and we needed something relatively fast for our lunch break. Church’s Chicken? Why not! Looked pretty tasty and the Tuesday special of two pc chicken and a biscuit for 4 bucks seemed pretty decent.
chirch’s chicken reminds me a lot of Popeye’s Chicken, which is tops for fast food chicken in my book. I got the spicy here, but sadly there wasn’t much of a kick. The skin/​batter was super crunchy and I love it. Taste-​wise it’s on the bland side. It was very tender and moist inside though.
It came with a small buttermilk biscuit glazed with a bit of honey.
Considering I don’t see this chain around much, I wouldn’t go out of my way to get it. Their daily specials are pretty reasonable though and I wouldn’t mind having it again if ever I was in the area.

Being a fan of fried chicken, I wanted to give Church’s a try.
It has a good crunch, but no flavour, and the spicy is bland as well.
Popeye’s spicy is still the best of the fried chicken franchises and better than a lot of restaurants too!

Honestly I was expecting worse.
Its basically a KFC knock off. But I liked the food I got a lot better than KFC. I had a chicken sandwich and fries. The fries were awesome. Perfect crunch factor to them. The chicken wasn’t as good as I thought it would be. But it wasn’t bad either.
It was very quiet in there and the girl who was at the counter was very nice.
I also liked the more modern look they were going for with the furniture inside. It was pretty clean. Which for a fast food restaurant is usually not common.
I’d go back again for sure.

After hearing a lot about this place and having a whole discussion with some people on the interiorwebs I decided I finally had to try this place out. It is supposed to be like the best fast food chicken ever according to some… or maybe even the best chicken ever I’m not sure.
The existence of this location came as a surprise to many as if you look on the Church’s Chicken site it has a locator and it lists 19 locations in Canada all in BC but none in ON.
I decided to go with the Tex Supreme combo after talking — briefly — with the lady behind the counter. I ended the conversation with that lady as quickly as possible because she was not very nice… she acted as if I should know all about the different menu choices and was surprised that I was even asking questions. First off lady, you’re franchise is the only location in Canada east of the Rocky Mountains so being a first timer shouldn’t be such a surprise and second, you guys don’t list your sandwiches’ ingredients on the giant billboard on top of your head so how am I supposed to know what’s in the sandwiches?
Why did I give it a 2 star «Meh. I’ve experienced better.» rating? Here’s a roundup:
— Chicken was pretty damn good.
— Jalapeño Cheese Bombers were delicious.
— Mashed potatoes in gravy were meh at best.
— Surly staff.
— Owner? Manager? doesn’t know how to behave to customers.
— Overpriced. My meal + the 4 Jalapeño Cheese Bombers worked out to $ 11.05 after taxes.
First, the sandwich: I ordered it spicy and it did have a decent spice to it, not an overpowering spice but a tasty one so good job on that Church’s Chicken. It looked quite pale, wasn’t golden, had barely any crispy-​crunchiness to it but all in all still tasted good. I don’t know if I would rate it best chicken ever but it was definitely quite good.
Second, the mashed potatoes and gravy: Meh. I do not recommend trying this if you ever go there. Maybe the fries are the better choice because the gravy was so watery and tasted so processed and out of a box that it just ruined the mashed potatoes for me.
Third, the Jalapeño Cheese Bombers: In a word — Delicious. They could have been bigger and should have been as they cost slightly under $ 0.75+tax each but I really liked them. Did they taste better than any sports bar’s Jalapeño Poppers that I have had in the past? Nope. I am just a fan of deep fried cheese stuffed jalapeños in general so this is probably why I quite enjoyed these. For the price though, they weren’t worth it but seeing as I made the trek out there they were the saving grace of the entire experience.
