Crown Chicken — Restaurant in City of Poughkeepsie

Title: Finger-Lickin' Good Fried Chicken

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)

Review: I recently had the pleasure of trying Crown Fried Chicken in Poughkeepsie, NY, and I must say, it satisfied my fried chicken craving perfectly.

The highlight of my visit was their fried chicken. The chicken pieces were crispy on the outside, with a juicy and tender inside. The seasoning was flavorful without being overwhelming. It was evident that the chicken was cooked to perfection and made with care.

The menu at Crown Fried Chicken also offers a variety of comfort food options like burgers, sandwiches, and sides. I tried their fries and was pleased with their crispiness and seasoning.

The service was friendly and efficient, ensuring that my order was taken promptly, and my food was served hot and fresh. The pricing was reasonable, making it an affordable option for a quick and satisfying meal.

The only reason I didn't give it a full five stars is that the seating area was a bit small and could get crowded during peak times. However, the quality of the food more than made up for it.

Overall, if you're craving delicious fried chicken and comfort food in Poughkeepsie, Crown Fried Chicken is definitely worth a visit. It's a no-frills spot with mouthwatering chicken that...

Food? Slaps. No complaints when it comes to the chicken, crispy, juicy, and seasoned like grandma whispered secrets into the batter. Real talk, the cooks deserve a raise.

Now the atmosphere? Different story. Pull up after dark and it feels like you’re stepping into a rap video without a camera crew. Young heads posted up front like it’s their business, sizing you up like you just walked into the wrong project building. Ain’t no “how can I help you?”…more like “what you lookin’ at?”

I order online now. Not ‘cause I’m scared, but because I like my drumsticks without drama and my fries without feeling like I’m about to get lined up.

Crown Fried Chicken got heat in the kitchen, but outside? Feels like you need a pitbull...

I am only giving atmosphere a 3 because I have never been there, I used door dash. I have no idea what drew me to this place, I thought it was a KFC knock off just looking at the name. Obviously not. I took a bite and nearly passed out. That was delicious. Everything was cooked incredibly well. No singular ingredient in the dish is trying to "do too much" or carry the flavor, it all just works so well together. I am from upstate, down here on business, I ordered here two nights in a row and am getting some chicken and rice on my way home...
