Champy’s Famous Fried Chicken

Excellent fried pickles. Great service and mixed drink choices.

I am really hoping this place is having an off night. Fried chicken was great and the customer service is always awesome. The fries and the buffalo wings was not very appetizing. The fries were kind of over cook and hard and the wings were tough (maybe not cooked long enough and tasted like they put liquid smoke in the sauce)
I would suggest you skip the fries and buffalo wings and order the fried chicken with their beans or cole slaw.

Oh, just order a family platter… It’s a dive-​y, little place that has amazing food, nothing I have ordered there has been boring. The chicken is cooked to order, flavorful, fresh and tender. The sides, just pick anything, you can’t go wrong. I have no idea about dessert, I’ve never made it that far the grease bread is dessert enough.

This place is awesome! I love their fried chicken. I ate at the famous Willie May’s Scotch House in New Orleans last week and I like Champy’s chicken better! I love how they turned a relatively new building into what feels like a cool dive. I love the blues and classic rock that they play coupled with sports on all the tv’s. The girls that wait on you are sweet and very attentive; not to mention easy on the eyes. Champy’s has a grown up feel to it but I see plenty of children accompany their parents there. On Sunday you better get their early or after 2:00 PM. The Eastern Shore folks like their fried chicken after church. The tamales are real good as well. I like the coleslaw because it’s not to sweet tasting. Brew, Blues and Bird! This place rocks!!!

Great food and service. Atmosphere is cool and the drink selection is big. Sausage, cheese, and pickle plate is great to start with and we always get the family meals to go with it. Great place.

I’ve been here 3 times and each time they were consistent with food and service. Food is cooked to order, so it’s always fresh and hot. Reasonable prices. It’s not a huge place, but you can always find a seat. If you like blues, you’ll hear always playing.

Wow. The chicken is cooked to perfection with a great blend of spices. Top notch all the way. Will definitely come back. We had the sides of beans and mashed potatoes with gravy. They were both done perfectly. Yum.

Service was excellent! Food was fresh and made to order which is always a plus!
The Tamales are amazing! We ordered a dozen to take with us!
Chicken strips are meaty, I liked the breaking and they were piping hot. Baked beans have three different beans and homemade, a little sweet but tasty! I loved the coleslaw and was a perfect side for the chicken and for the tamales.
Terry had two piece data snack with french fries, he really liked the fried chicken, wasn’t over greasy, it was crispy and perfect amount of seasoning!
Really impressed, we will be back the next time we are coming through Daphne!
Hint: if you have a hard time finding Champy’s it is beside Little Cesar’s

Champy’s has the best fried chicken on the ES. Hand’s down. Their chicken fingers are excellent and never dry. The batter on their fried chicken is the bomb. Love the coleslaw and baked beans, too.

I always get the tenders. Champy’s sauce is awesome. Thanks for taking care of me Macey!

It was really good chicken, not spicy, average size pieces (unlike other review stated) beans were good as were the fries. $ 2.00 PBR Draught beer was ice cold. My meal was $ 9.95. It was the 3 pc white and 2 sides. It took exactly 19 minutes from time of order to table. I knew they cooked to order and was fine with this. We were practically the only people ordering too, so I assume this is a best case scenario. I prefer Popeye’s spicy over this, but I enjoyed having an adult beverage with my meal. Service was good while we had full glasses, but not so much when I needed a refill. Seems another couple had the waitstaff’s attention at the bar with their amusing tales. Not complaining mind you, as all I had to do would have been to turn around and get her attention.
Wifey had fried chicken salad ($ 7.95) and said it was good. Nothing to hype about, but good. It was all very fresh and hot. Had to open the chicken up to let it cool down for a minute. One thing that I would recommend to the management is to have your table hops wipe down all the condiment containers, as everyone that handles them has some form of sticky biz on their hands. This was a major turn off to grab something with your clean hands and feel the stickiness from prior patrons. Four stars for freshness, taste, cold brew-​sky.

Not a big fried chicken eater but there is really good. Really get your money’s worth.

Awesome freshly Fried Chicken, Bake Beans, Coleslaw, Iced Tea and family time…

They do it well
Not much of a menu but what they do they do very well. The chicken is as good as any you will find and the tamales are an unexpected treat. Great service as well.

Some of the best fried chicken you’ll find anywhere, at prices that will leave you and your wallet satisfied.
Yes, Champy’s fried chicken rivals the world-​famous Willie Mae’s in New Orleans, at a fraction of the price. The sides are equally as good, especially the mashed potatoes and green beans. What they lack in atmosphere (strip mall location & plastic cutlery), they more than make up for with quality. The coating on this chicken is seriously over-​the-​top amazing!

This place is awesome. Amazing food. Wish they would get in to the football season a little more. TV are quiet. Other wise must try place for chicken!

Hadn’t been in a while so I stopped by late on a Saturday night. Chicken was served piping hot and it was pretty good. It could have used a little more seasoning but it was still very good.

Delicious, hot, fresh fried chicken.
Warning: it will take a short bit to get your food as they cook it fresh when you order it. No old, dry chicken that’s been sitting around for hours. But it’s totally worth it.
Seating is a bunch of random tables and chairs, but it makes for a cozy, laid back atmosphere.

Now this is a pretty neat place! Yes, I, the one who does not care for fried foods, will not turn away a piece of Champ’s chicken. Think Gus’ in Memphis but in a better environment and with more options.
There is a full bar.
The location is easy to access and leave.
The tamales — good try! Nothing can beat a Clarksdale, MS or Helena, AR tamale, but these are as close as I have found and the sauce is just right.
The sides and apps are good, plentiful and memorable.
This is the sort of place I will take my out-​of-​town guests to get a break from our daily seafood routine and get a taste of the local life here on the Eastern Shore.

I can cook anything except fried chicken. Thankfully, Champy’s is right down the road so I don’t have to. They serve up three of my favorite things: brew, bird and the blues (in that order).
Although I don’t think the chicken is as good as my favorite fried chicken in my hometown, it’s still very good, juicy and crispy, and I don’t have to go traipsing through the hood to get it. The sides, on the other hand — oh em gee! Champy’s has the best sides! The baked beans are not your typical baked beans, and they’re worth letting my husband eat beans before we go to bed. The mashed potatoes and potato salad are great too. The tamales are small but on point.
The service is friendly and quick, and the prices are reasonable. There’s a cool little bar in there with bottles and draft. It fits right in with the laid back atmosphere.
It goes without saying that I’ve found my favorite chicken joint on the Alabama coast!
