I seriously love this place. Convenient location. Excellent fried chicken and sides. It's my favorite fried chicken in Charlottesville. It's always super moist with a salty and flavorful spice on the breading which is more like an original recipe than a crunchy/thick breading style. Just thinking of this place is making my tummy rumble. I recommend it to everyone. The selection of chips and drinks is really impressive as well for such a small spot. Everyone who works there is friendly and fast.

This place has the absolute best fried chicken. They also have competitive gas prices, and if you buy more than 10 gallons of gas, you get a free piece of chicken. Also, Mr Brown is very helpful and funny. The one downside is that the store is closed on Sunday lol.

Chicken was fresh and delicious. I've never had any better. Potato wedges are AMAZING. They must be cut from fresh potatoes right in the store. Dinner rolls and baked beans were straight from the package. Nothing special but they were good and fresh. Service was great. Store was clean.

Best fried chicken! We were trying a couple different places for chicken on the way from the Richmond airport, and this was by far the best. Crispy but not with a thick batter. Old time Virginia style like when I was growing up.
