We created Chicken Shack out of our desire to celebrate two of our favorite food groups, fried chicken and waffles! Our fried chicken is marinated for 24 hours in a buttermilk brine; our yeasted waffles are prepared every day from scratch and allowed to slow rise for 24 hours to give our waffles a light, buttery crunch. We are especially fond of our pecan cinnamon butter, our bourbon infused maple syrup, and our house-made chicken gravy— all three of which are served with our Chicken & Waffle Entree. If you are in the mood for chicken wings, look no further. We are convinced that our three-step process of brining, baking, and frying our wings before tossing them in our house-made sauces means we have the absolute best wings in Northern CA.

March 14, 2023 – en route to Arizona. It was raining today on a BIBLICAL level. I was hankering for fried chicken for an inexplicable reason.

If you are hungry and traveling on I5 this is a must stop. They have a great selection of chicken sandwiches, load fries, buffalo wings, and chicken tenders. I got the Mother clucker waffle sandwich, and Mango BBQ loaded fries. The Mother clucker waffle sandwich ,was very tasty but messy. It comes with bacon, an egg and their home made gravy. The seasoning on these chicken was awesome vey flavorful you can taste the seasoning. The home made gravy was a white gravy and it went well with the chicken and the waffle. I also got the loaded Mango BBQ fries. It came with cut up chicken tenders on it with melted cheese their special sauce a mango bbq sauce wish wasn’t that spicy and bacon bits. I loved them.

I ordered veggie sticks as a side and they looked like they were at least a week and an half old!

The food is good, but the indoor eating area needs some help. All the tables are sticky. Seems to be a problem with the finish on the tables. It’s gross having your arms stick to the tables. Also, there were a ton of flies we had to keep shooing away. I’ll probably go back but won’t eat inside again.

Not worth the $32.08 for 2 combo meals for 2 people. First red flag was the cashier gave me less change but I ignored it since he was young and it wasn’t much. Second issue was the BBQ sandwich was asked to be on a bun instead of waffle and they just slapped a waffle on it. Both sandwiches are minimal and subpar at best and they charge a lot just because KFC in Redding has been down hill in the last several months and are always out of chicken so this place just gets away with this kind of price gouging for low level food. Should’ve walked out as soon as I came in since it was 100 degrees in there at night with flies buzzing around your head. Probably why there’s outdoor seating.

Chicken wings have no batter and taste baked. Photo shows fried chicken with a batter on it. The crispy Brussel sprouts were soggy and had been sitting over time. Nothing about them were crispy. When I talked to the employee about the food not fitting the description or photo he stated “I hear that a lot” and did nothing about the poor quality of the food.

Ordered online, asking for garlic to be added if possible ~ substituting garlic for added avocado ~ got some Parmesan garlic sauce stuff & poured it on my chicken fries. Soo yummy!!

The food here is always good. Today was no exception. However, my partners sandwich was missing the sauce it comes with(which kinda makes it) , and my fries were totally cold when they were served. Both things could’ve easily been fixed if we’d spoken up, but we were in a hurry. No big deal, but that’s the reason for the 4 star.

Stopped in Redding for the night and thought this was *The* Chicken Shack chain restaurant which has the same exact same font as the sign on the building. Was disappointed to realize when I arrived that it wasn’t. It appears that they took over an old building of theirs or something. Ordered the 8 piece strip basket for $20 which feels overpriced considering they are not large strips by any stretch. Got Mac and Brussels as the two sides. Mac was mediocre with some garlic. Brussels were dripping with grease but somehow burnt and soggy at the same time. Weird that so much food for that price and doesn’t come with a drink. Cookie was on the larger side but made two days ago and $3.31 after tax also seems steep. Overall, meh.
