"Next time you’re strolling through North Beach and smell juicy, perfectly fried chicken wafting through the air, follow the scent to SF Chickenbox. The small takeout-only spot serves some of our favorite fried chicken in the city, and you should definitely stop by for the original fried chicken sandwich with house sauce and shredded lettuce, or grab a big box of chicken thighs and drumsticks for the road. Whatever you do, be sure to grab a side of their creamy mac salad, too." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
"A crispy chicken spot in North Beach, closed after six years." - Paolo Bicchieri
"The beauty of SF Chickenbox’s original fried chicken sandwich is in the simplicity—and that it nails all the pillars of a great fried chicken sandwich: crunchy breading, juicy chicken, and a squishy bun. It comes with lettuce and house sauce, and it’s flawless. There’s also a version with jalapeño, hot sauce, and red onion, or a buffalo one with pickles and ranch. Whatever you order goes well with Old Bay-seasoned fries and their chewy mochi muffin." - julia chen 1, lani conway
"Aimlessly wandering around North Beach and people/dog-watching is a great way to spend a sunny late afternoon. We get hungry during all this, which is why we love SF Chickenbox. They do a fantastic fried chicken sandwich, plus squishy mochi muffins and a standout macaroni salad. It’s the ideal picnic meal, so grab a box of it all, take it to Washington Square, and eat it in the sun." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
"Simplicity is the key to greatness, as proven by our trusty pair of white sneakers. SF Chickenbox knows this well. The takeout-only North Beach spot specializing in fried chicken sandwiches tops theirs with only house sauce and shredded lettuce. Add their flawless fried chicken breast and squishy buns to the mix and you have one of the best fried chicken sandwiches in the city. We also come here for the sides, like the refreshing macaroni salad or housemade ube mochi muffins." - Julia Chen 1, Lani Conway, Ricky Rodriguez
