“Best chicken sandwich I've ever had. I've had a lot of chicken sandwiches.” ~ Dale B.
"Arguably one of the best fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had, and I have had a ton. This is definitely a breath of fresh air in the south suburbs, and is bar none the newest concept here as well. The chicken sandwich is enormous, great tasting, spiced to perfection, and very reasonably priced." ~ Karim

FRequently ASKED QUESTION
HOW HOT IS HOT? - Our Hot is ridiculously spicy! It is no joke! Ghost pepper is the main spice in our “Hot” heat level and we estimate it is 1,000,000 on the scoville scale. Not for the faint of heart.
IS YOUR CHICKEN HALAL? - Yes, our chicken is 100% Halal certified. However, we fry all our chicken and fries in beef fat. Unfortunately, that beef fat is not Halal. Currently, Halal certified beef fat does not exist in large quantities for restaurants. We have looked everywhere! When it is accessible, we will make it happen, but that may not be for 2-5 years.
WHY DO YOU USE BEEF FAT FOR FRYING? - Beef fat is a saturated fat vs. a trans fat. Trans fat cooking oils (vegetable oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) are very bad for you and after heated to 350 degrees, it create a chemical call Aldehyde. Aldehyde is directly linked to cancer. Beef tallow on the other hand is a saturated fat and contains a number of benefits including an excellent source of Vitamin A, D and E and Fatty Acids that you wont get from a trans fat oil. People have been cooking with animal fat since the beginning of time and it is a more natural way of cooking. Plus, frying in beef fat just tastes better! We strongly believe in delivering the best product possible and this is a huge part of that.
HOW BIG IS YOUR ORDER OF FRIES? - Our fries are 5.5 ounces, which is equivalent to a larger fry.
DO YOU DO CATERING? - Yes we do! Please email: info@frythecoop.com
WHAT IS PEARL SUGAR? - Pearl sugar is refined compressed white sugar. It comes in little course balls and it is used in our waffles. It brings a little sweetness and crunch to our waffles.
CAN I ADD “X,Y,Z” TO MY ORDER? - Yes, you can customize your order. However, we keep things pretty simple and we recommend you try everything as is. Please note, we do not carry lettuce nor tomato.
DO YOU HAVE ANY VEGETARIAN OPTIONS? - Yes, we have a secret menu item called the Veggie Sandwich and it is amazing! It has fries, coleslaw, cheese, pickles, mild rub, and coop sauce on a toasted brioche bun.
ARE THE FRIES 100% VEGETARIAN? - No, our fries are not 100% vegetarian. We fry our fries in beef fat, but truth be told, a lot of vegetarians eat our fries.
DO YOU HAVE ANY GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS? - Unfortunately, not really. Our Fries, Coleslaw, and Potato Salad are gluten free. However, we use flour all day to bread our chicken and there could be gluten/flour cross contact, so we can not guarantee 100% gluten free.
