Most Disliked
While the food scores high marks, some diners express a wish for more seating space. The intimate size can lead to crowded conditions during peak hours, which may make some guests feel rushed or cramped. A few customers note that waiting times can be longer than expected during busy periods, which can be a downside if you're looking for a quick meal.
Additionally, the proximity to the gas station can make some hesitant about the quality they'll encounter, though many leave surprised by the high standards. But ultimately, the delicious food tends to overshadow any minor inconveniences, keeping guests returning for another bite.

A friend had ordered recently and raved about the food here, so I decided to give the chicken here a try. Definitely didn’t disappoint. The price was very reasonable and the sides that came with the deluxe meal deal are well worth the price. Friendly service. Only complaint is that waiting cost more because of the yummy snacks I ended up buying from inside the BP!! Who thought gas station chicken would be so good?!?🍗 😋

Absolutely fantastic… fantastic in service, fantastic in menu options, and absolutely fantastic tasting chicken. I can’t wait to try other items on their menu. The hard part will be not wanting to keep ordering their chicken as it was absolutely delicious. I can honestly say it reminded me of the old Dutchland Dairy broasted chicken (and I would know because I used to be one of their line cooks). The meat was moist, tender, and flavorful. Broasted chicken is better than any other type of chicken and it is nice to have broasted chicken once again available. This is a family owned business and with your support, it will be another great addition to our Milwaukee traditions.
