I had the pleasure of visiting Chicken Salad Chick in Estero, Florida, for lunch on Saturday, May 13, 2023, with my wife and two daughters. Overall, our first experience was wonderful, and I would give it my highest possible recommendation.
The interior was very friendly, warm, and inviting, and the staff was equally welcoming. The menu was easy to read, with several great chicken salad options. The meal options included fruit, soups, and salads, comparable to Panera but with fewer, higher quality options and fewer baked goods. I appreciated that there were menu options available for children, including a tasty mac and cheese.
I opted for the classic chicken salad as a BLT sandwich with soup, and I must say that both were delicious and of much higher quality than I expected. My wife, who is gluten-free, had the single scoop chicken salad with a side of broccoli salad, which she enjoyed immensely. It was nice to visit a lunch place that is gluten-free friendly.
The interior was playfully decorated and fun, which added to the overall dining experience. The dining area and serving areas were clean, organized, and orderly. We were there early before the lunch crowd began streaming in, and it definitely began to fill up as we were leaving.
One of the best things about our experience was the pricing. It was very reasonable, and we paid only $38 for two adults and two children for lunch, including drinks. The best part was that there was no awkward prompting for an additional tip, which was refreshing.
In summary, Chicken Salad Chick in Estero, FL, provided us with one of the best easy, low cost, budget-friendly lunches we have enjoyed in a long time. We will definitely be returning soon, and I highly recommend it to anyone...

Read moreThis was my first encounter at this location they been open a while. Very friendly staff clean location. I ordered the basic chicken salad on a croissant that I was told was fresh. I ordered it with lettuce only. I wasn’t surprised to see that it had tomato on it… so I just pitched it out the window for the squirrels to eat leaving the slimy residue of the nasty tomato on my chicken salad LOL… i’m sure they use a pre-measured amount but they could use a little bit more chicken salad on the sandwich. It tasted fine nothing to write home about a good alternative to McDonald’s. I chose the pasta salad side it was OK I’m sure per people that like that type of thing it was good. They include a pickle which I was looking forward to but this particular pickle look like somebody already ate it and it was slid across the kitchen floor. So I had to pass on the pickle. There was a nice little cookie they include for dessert a buttercream frosted cookie and it was nice. But I wouldn’t go back not for what it was one scoop of chicken salad on a stale croissant roll and I didn’t even prepare it the way I ordered it. Not to mention the nasty side pickle. not a good first impression and based on it I...
