This is at their Union Square location. It is set up like a regular fast-food joint, with order/pick up counter, and table seating. Not so big, but had enough seating.
The staff at the ordering counter, Marcus, was welcoming and very helpful. Since it was my first time visiting, he gave me good advice and made sure I was happy with my order.
We ordered The Original Chicken & Waffles, and Chicken & Fries, and a couple of their Daily Lemonades. I chose Peach Nectar Lemonade and Mango Nectar Lemonade, and the mango one had stronger flavor, and it tasted like made with real fruits.
Chicken & Fries It comes with 2pc. bone-in or 3pc. boneless chicken. Marcus told me that 3pc is like chicken tenders, and I chose the 3pc thinking that it is easier to eat. I asked Marcus which sauce flavor is his favorite, and he said Maple Chipotle is the best. He also asked me if I wanted the sauce on the side for dipping, instead of the chicken being coated in it. He told me that is how he prefers, so I went with that recommendation. He was so helpful with my order, making sure I was taken care of and happy with what I was getting.
The Maple Chipotle sauce was really delicious. Sweet with a nice kick to it. Chicken was tender and moist, juicy with nice crunchy exterior. I was happy to see the side of fries being the crinkle cut fries, reminded me of the good old days... They were soft, potato-y, and very tasty.
My husband was excited for The Original Chicken & Waffles. He chose the sauce flavor and waffles, which was both available with additional cost. He went with Maple Chipotle flavor sauce and Bacon Cheddar Specialty Waffles. And we got this one with 2pc. bone-in pieces.
The bone-in chicken pieces were definitely more flavorful. It had that deep, savory flavor that you can only get with the bone-in chicken. And they were super juicy delicious! I think the chicken does not need any extra flavor added, since it was tasty on its own. Same can be said for the waffles. The waffles were tasty on its own, so I don't think the sprinkles of bacon and cheese was not necessary. Their special butter, however, was amazing! It was Honey and Berry Butter, and that was super awesome!
Our first trip to the Sweet Chick was a success! Thank you Marcus for making our visit easy and tasty. We enjoyed our orders, definitely bone-in chicken, and don't need additional fancy flavors... Or maybe get one side of Maple Chipotle sauce to dip in. Speaking of chicken, they offer Vegetarian Chicken too! So if you are in a mood for some fried chicken dishes that are kind of southern style for quick, try the Sweet Chick!
