Harold's Chicken Shack

Restaurant Review
Yummy hot fried chicken. I have been craving this place after trying it at taste of chicago a few years back but have been unable to get to one of these locations until the past week. The restaurant itself is located in a rather interesting neighborhood that I probably would avoid at night i.e. there is 1 inch thick bullet proof glass with a revolving door to get your fried chicken. The prices are higher than popeye or KFC, however the chicken is larger and fried right on the spot. Typically you will have to wait 10-20 minutes before getting your meal. They also have fried fish, liver, giblet, etc. Make sure you bring cash as they have a service fee for credit cards through this weird ATM like machine.... Otherwise great fresh hot fried chicken

Pro- piping hot fried chicken, super crispy/natural flavors

Con- super long wait, more expensive than popeyes and no spicy variety. Avoid this area at night.

Solid Harlod's location.  A bit more expensive than other locations, probably because Shrine is next door.  Pretty consistent quality & portions.

Yuuuuuuum!!

Kinda far from my neck of the woods but I just happened to be in the neighborhood and thought I try this location. Consistent, hot, and delicious. Wait was about 30-40 minutes but well worth it IMO.
