"There’s plenty of wiggle room for diners of all ages at Honey Butter Fried Chicken’s sunny, spacious patio in Avondale, decked out with string lights and colorful coverings overhead. A neighborhood staple since 2013, it’s one of the top spots in town for succulent fried chicken — both in sandwich form and on its own — which fans often drench in its signature honey butter for a sweet-and-savory marvel. A full bar adds to the sit-back-and-relax vibe." - Naomi Waxman
"Fried chicken and mac and cheese are shoo-ins with most kids, but Honey Butter Fried Chicken goes even further with a kids meal that includes chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and a sticker sheet for a little entertainment. The restaurant is back open at full capacity." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman
"Honey Butter Fried Chicken is a well-known restaurant in Chicago's restaurant scene, co-owned by chef Josh Kulp. It was mentioned as being influential in Ben Shabad's participation in a Carmy lookalike competition." - Ashok Selvam
"True to its name, this Avondale staple has been pairing two of life's greatest things for over a decade: fried chicken and honey butter. So when a perfectly round ball of their butter shows up at your table with an order of crispy drumsticks, just follow what’s written on the wall: “Put the butter on the bird.” The result is a fantastic mix of sweet and savory, and dipping sauces like honey buffalo or zesty jalapeño mayo are worth including.

And if eating chicken while basking in the sun sounds like a fun activity, join the usual crowd of families or newly-inducted Avondaleans (patent pending) on the patio in the warmer months.
