Crown Fried Chicken is a great venue if you know what to expect. PROS: Open until 2am every day including sundays, great for late night/holidays/drunk people. Very cheap, and reasonably good value. Good variety of American/Halal foods, deserts etc. They also have almost every Fanta soda in cans. The BEST french fries in town, they are VERY crispy because they use the same fry oil as the chicken. They also deliver, however I have not used this service. CONS: Staff is not quite what you would call friendly. Also, I have received tomato on my "no tomato please" gyro 60-75% of the time I order it. Also, I wouldnt recommend any of the chicken products.. I have seen 18gal plastic totes without covers filled with prepped chicken being stuffed into the walk-in.

Pretty disappointed with the service. Called ordering the fried chicken wrap and the guy rudely said that was not an option and preceded to tell me they only offered grilled, buffalo or beef. Ordered the grilled only to get to the restaurant and find on their menu pasted above the counter the offer: buffalo, ranch, beef and crispy finger chicken. Was it because I said fried that he didnt know it was the same as crispy? Disappointed but took my food as the guy was busy being rude to another customer only to get home and find he had giving me buffalo. Why tell me grilled if it not an option? Wont be retuning to this location as the one on St Johns street has much better service and is worth he further drive.

Waited 40min to get through to them on the phone, working with 2 different numbers. Then I was told the wait time could exceed 40min, which I as ok with. Then when I completed my order, I was told there is a 20$ minimum when their menu clearly says there is only a 10$ minimum. I come from chicago and crave gyros!!! To add insult to injury, they only have pre cut beef strips with a sour cream mint sauce they call tazyiki. Last straw. Thanks for nothing.

Visited because of positive reviews here... Felt like we should set the record straight. Had a really bad meal here, the only thing we actually ate were the chicken fingers (frozen and flash fried). Couldnt dip them in ketchup - if thats what the sauce was on the table - settled for the portion-packed BBQ sauce instead. Definitely skip this one.

These guys are just plain lazy!! Serve 6 day old mashed potatoes.. guy in the back is a grease ball and doesnt wear gloves.. very unprofessional .. I come in. There everyday since they have opened for chicken breast and they are just plain lazy to cook some more because they are out..plain lazy just lost alot of business.

Used to be very good food but they raised the prices now and its not worth it. On top of that they say free delivery on the front of the building and when I called to order some they told me they don,t do delivery anymore. They wasted my time and beyond that they lost a sale and a customer.

Dont let the appearance fool you, this chicken is amazing. It isnt overly breaded like a lot of places and the seasoning is just right. Their hot sauce is awesome too. Atmosphere isnt great and space is a little beat up, but the food is great for a good price and the staff is friendly.

Really cheap food, both in price and quality. Service is below average. If you dont care how your food tastes or how you feel after eating it but instead are only motivated by cost then this is the place for you.

Get ready to spin the wheel of food poisoning fortune, Filthy booths, No paper towels and barely any soap in restroom . Place is sketchy at best, Not even sure it was chicken I ate.. stay away

I wanted to like this place; maybe I should have had the chicken. The gyro and fries were terrible so dont bother. A really large menu is usually a red flag and this is no exception.

Had a great experience first few times here with lamb chop kebab. Last 2 times visited had old reheated food, didnt have what I wanted available, and tried to overcharge me.

Haters gonna hate. Got my late night fix here and became a believer instantly. The chicken finger sub is fantastic, and huge for the price. Looking forward to my next visit.

Customer service is the first bad thing, then the bad salad of lattes and ranch only, then the misleading menu. I hate this place and I will never go there.

Dont be fooled by the name. Although the chicken is good, the star of the show here is the kebabs. The rice they serve with them is great too.
