This girl loves her fried chicken. Once upon a time, I spent my first year of college in North Carolina. Bojangles locations were in no short supply, and I was always excited when people-who-had-cars would suggest a trip. We alternated between Bojangles, TB and Cookout.(Oh how I miss you, my Cookout!) When we missed our Charlotte connection, before even leaving the plane, I turned to my friend and said I hoped they had an airport Bojangles. It was 8 a.m. at the time, but oh well. I had been up since 2:30 a.m. so it was basically lunchtime. Sure enough, we got off the plane, looked at the terminal map and eventually made our way over(after getting beers, of course). I was so thrilled to be in the presence of Bojangles again that I asked my friend to take a photo of me with their sign. I assume all of the staff members thought I was a total nutjob, but it’s okay! Opening my chicken sandwich and seasoned fries took me right back to the 2000s. Thank you, airport Bojangles, for the wonderful nostalgic meal. Love, love, love.

If any airport fast food joint is this good, I could only imagine how it would taste at an actual location. I don’t really order fast food a lot, so I was surprised how quickly I actually did get my food. Really quickly. The woman taking my order was really patient when I ordered a Cajun biscuit then added egg and then added cheese. To be honest, if I didn’t order it from a fast food stand and it wasn’t in a wrapper, I wouldn’t have necessarily known it was fast food. Yep, this is worth a stop for sure in the Charlotte airport.

I’m pretty selective when it comes to my food, especially things that seem so easy to make. However when it comes to Bojangles and their biscuits, chicken, and grits; I’m always satisfied. The one thing I look forward to at this airport is this food spot. Since I’m not fortunate enough to have a location close to home, each time I’ve ever traveled through here… I stop here, even if I’m on the opposite side of the airport. So delicious each and everytime. Get your food to go and eat it on your plane ride; you’ll be the envy of all the other passengers.

Stopped into Charlotte’s famous Bo Jangles during a layover on my way to LA. I ordered the 4 piece supremes combo with a side of the bo jangles dipping sauce. The Supremes are the spicy cousin of their regular chicken tenders. After eating 2⁄4 chicken tenders, 1⁄3 of the biscuit and ½ the bag of deliciously seasoned fries I was done. I decided that it was just not worth the calories to finish my entire meal. This is partially because I am fatter than ever, and partially because it just wasn’t that spectacular. It wasn’t bad, just wasn’t blow all your calories on it good. The real star of the meal was my side of perfectly seasoned delicious fries. Next best was the biscuit. Terminal B doesn’t seem to have too many dining options. I would probably get Bo Jangles again on another layover but if they happen to open up a Panda Express or something similar in this terminal, that’s where you’ll find me.

The chicken is the BEST. I look fwd to stopping here before I board my flt back to Chicago. The only issue I have with this location is not being able to get a refill and the counter staff has ZERO customer service skills. Food: Five Stars Service: 0 stars for this location

It wouldn’t be right to have an airport in Charlotte without a Bojangles. And, as long as you cruise midway through the B gates, you’ll find this state’s best known fast food chain. Does the food inside the confines of the airport rival that dished out in traditional locations? Some days, yes. Others no. There’s a lot of inconsistency here. For example, at 7am this morning, I ordered a Chicken Supremes combo and so did my buddy, less than 30 seconds apart from each other. His was ready in 30 seconds. Mine took 10 minutes. His fries were much better than mine. Meanwhile, if you are a fan of Bojangles you’ll be content. For the most part the menu is the same and as expected prices are higher than in a non-airport location. Meanwhile, where else can you get a Pecan Twist, Bo-Berry Biscuit and sweet tea to take on the plane? If you’re in the mood for fast food, you’ll be served well here. And, unlike many other vendors in this airport, the line moves quickly. If you’re a Bojangles newbie, try the Cajun Fillet Biscuit in the morning and the Chicken Supremes combo(they are better than the Homestyle Tenders) with fries and a sweet tea later in the day. Ask to upgrade the biscuit to a Pecan Twist. Do so and this will become one of your favorite fast food chains.

Chicken was very crispy and tasty, and the biscuit was really buttery. This was a pretty good airport meal, and cheap when compared to other airport food.

I recently traveled through Charlotte and although I don’t normally eat fried food, I decided to try this place out because I had heard of it before and never tried it. I got a chicken tender plate with cajun fries and it came with a biscuit. The Food The chicken was ok, it wasn’t stellar, and I thought the fried coating was overdone. I could not taste the chicken, only the batter which tasted good, but it was overpowering. The fries were ok, they are not my favorite type, but the seasoning wasn’t overpowering and I could taste potato which was good. The biscuit was soggy and burnt around the sides. I did not enjoy it much, but I could tell that the flavor was good, and maybe if I went to another place, I would like it better. They also have a selection of pepsi products to drink as soda. I opted for a Mountain Dew, since I needed to stay awake. It was a bit costly to eat, at 9 dollars, so I wasn’t impressed with this place at all. The Service and Décor The décor is typical airport. It’s cramped, crowded, there is seating nearby that is usually filled during the rush, so its hard to find a spot. Typical airport problems. The customer service was ok. Nothing special. The woman who took my order was sitting on a countertop and sounded like she was on painkillers, so she may have had an injury or something like that. I’m not sure what was going on, but it was definitely different from what I have experienced in the past. She was polite at any rate and sped people through quickly. Overall, I think my experience here was pretty bad, and I probably wouldn’t go to Bojangle’s at the airport again. I will however try it out again because I have a feeling that the restaurants outside of the airport will probably be a better experience.

First this location does GREAT getting loads of people thru the line quickly. Due to the volume EVERYTHING is always hit and fresh. But, it is macro produced fried chicken. With that said it is pretty darned good macro produced fried chicken. What is missing, to me, is a really tasty spicy option. The biscuits are serious indulgence.

I wish there was a Bojangles in San Diego but instead we have Popeye’s which is alright but not Bojangles. I was so happy to see a Bojangles as soon as I got off the plan. I wanted to get a 2 or 3 piece but like all the other restaurants in the airport it was crazy expensive. So I decided to just get a chicken biscuit with sweet tea, extra hot sauce and honey. There was a dining area close by which was jammed packed. Also the spot was crazy busy so know what you want and be patient. Hopefully I can go back to North Carolina just for Bojangles.

I understand that the man helping me in the counter was not as happy or enthusiastic, with it being 5:30 in the morning. Service was okay. I wanted to bring some Bojangles home to California with me and got biscuits and chicken. I had to eat some on the plane! The food was delicious! I definitely recommend their food and wished I got a breakfast sandwich. This is one local treat!

You might not be aware, but Bojangles is based right here in Charlotte and so this location is quite the flagship to introduce this fabulous chicken to people who otherwise might not be able to experience it. This one is located by gate B9 and there is a small seating area nearby. Do your fellow passengers a big favor and PLEASEDONOTBRINGFRIEDCHICKENONTHEPLANE. Sure, it tastes great for you, but the smell carries for miles and miles. So yes, get some of this great stuff. And then eat it in the airport! Okay, enough ranting. I got a simple platter with a breast and a wing plus mashed potatoes and cole slaw. I’m not going to have their mac & cheese in the airport, but at the retail outlets, it’s okay. The chicken was quite moist but there was a lot of batter. The fixin’s were okay. Nothing special I can’t say that I’m blown away by Bojangles, but it’s one of those things that I generally have about once a year. For a laugh, pronounce it «Bo-HANG-glaze».

Really tasty fried chicken. Mashed potatoes and biscuit were good too but the fried chicken is definitely worth a try. I got a breast piece which was extra juicy and tender. The line was constant here at lunch time at terminal B so as expected it was fresh chicken. It’s kinda oily but hey it’s fried chicken, what do you expect. On a side note, the Cajun filet sandwich(bun) was a 4⁄5 according to my wife.

I had a connecting flight in Charlotte, which gave me time to compare the famous Bojangles to Popeyes! I was thrilled to get my fill of chicken, biscuits, and seasoned fries. The chicken was high quality and the batter was crispy but kinda bland. It’s not seasoned at all, I would say. The biscuit is really soft but just tasted old. The fries were good and well seasoned with Cajun. I just I had tried the half gallon of sweet tea. Completely forgot to try that! I also would like to give another locaton of this chain a chance. Maybe the one at the airport didn’t do it justice.

Wasn’t sure what to expect of this place, but man I’m glad we tried it! We were disappointed we couldn’t find a Chick Fil A to try but I think this was just as good an option. We got the supreme(spicy) chicken tender combo with the seasoned fries, and also a biscuit and sweet tea! The fries were soooo good. They were nice and hot when we got them too! I was slightly disappointed in the biscuit cuz it wasn’t as buttery as I expected… But oh well lol. The chicken tenders were good, but not as spicy as I was wanting — the amount of crunch and moisture they had made up for it though. The employees at this locations were extremely nice, which is rare in an airport. I’m sad we don’t have this place in Washington.

I had a connecting flight in Charlotte, which gave me time to indulge in Bojangles. Bojangles is always a «must stop» for me whenever I’m in the Carolinas, so I was more than happy to get my fill of chicken, biscuits, and seasoned fries. I just wish that they had the half gallon of sweet tea that I could have taken with me :/

It was good, because i love chicken. Its a good way to K. O before your flight. I didnt find anything special about this place but the food was good. I would come here again.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I found nothing good about dried up chicken fingers and a overcookrd biscuit that tasted like old grease. I will definitely stick to popeyes for my chicken.

With little time to get something to eat before my connecting flight — I waited in a line that seemed to move quite quickly. The staff were all pleasant and the food was as good as Bojangles gets — a bit dried out and a bit over priced, but when you are in a pinch — it’s great having them around!

It was the first time I had bojangles chicken and it was amazing. The skin was crispy with the perfect juiciness and large portions with the perfect batter. The airport bojangles was great to have available but it was a little far from the main terminal intersections. So it was a little bit of a mission to get to from other gates. However, the service was fast and quick and despite being in the airport, the prices was still super quick! If I’m ever in the Charlotte airport again, this is the first pit stop for me unless I’m running late for my flight!
