White Fence Farm Main Restaurant

This is a pretty cool bit of Route 66 history, and the food is great. It’s a big place, and you’ll have no doubt that chicken is the star of the show as soon as you enter; the big rooster statue makes sure of that. It was already decked out in Christmas decorations when I visited, but the restaurant is huge. Seating and service were fast, however, and I was able to order quickly. The menu has a decent number of options at reasonable prices, but I went with the classic chicken dinner. It was preceded by a bunch of delicious sides, and then the chicken came along with a potato dish. The chicken was nice and crispy on the outside while remaining tender and moist on the inside. It was very good, and I enjoyed the meal greatly. But it was a lot, and I was able to bring home leftovers and get another meal out of it. Overall, it’s a pretty cool place, and it’d be great with family or friends.

I have been going to white fence farm for over 50 years. This was always our family's place for communions, graduations and just a place to gobthat could accommodate our large group. Still love the "relish" tray. Cottage cheese kidney bean salad beets corn fritters. The chicken is good but i think ive had better. Its the atmosphere that makes this place special especially at christmas!

A Route 66 original. Their chicken is famous. They have more ambiance in one place than imaginable. For nearly a hundred years WFF has been a Chicagoland area staple. The service is impeccable. Come for the food enjoy a step back in time.

Great fried chicken. It’s been around 25 years since we’ve been to White Fence Farm and I’m happy we popped by while we were in the Chicago area visiting. We came here on a Wednesday night and the place was not busy at all. I’m sure it’s going to be jammed this 4th of July weekend. Three of us were seated and our server showed up right away to take our drink order. We already knew what we wanted for dinner and placed that order at the same time. The relishes came out right after the drinks were delivered. We enjoyed them all: - Coleslaw - Pickled Beets - Bean Salad - Cottage Cheese - Corn Fritters A bit layer, our meals came out. We all ordered Fried Chicken Dinners. One of us had a baked potato and sour cream. She took that home. Two of us ordered mashed potatoes and gravy. The potatoes weren’t special but were tasty. The chicken of course was the star. So crispy, so tasty. Loved it. Great service and great chicken - we can recommend White Fence Farm to anyone that loves fried chicken.

Came here with friends and family since they had been here before. They give you some Kidney Bean Salad, Cole Slaw, Cottage Cheese, Pickled Beets, and Corn Fritters as an appetizer. I tried the chicken tenders. And must say they were the best chicken tenders I've ever had. The fries were very good too, although you didn't get many fries. There is also a museum with a bunch of relics from back in the days. Definitely worth checking this place out.

White Fence Farm was an incredible experience. Plenty of parking and clean. We were greeted and seated right away. Our waitress Yelena was great! Very friendly, attentive and with an inviting personality. She made our dining experience very enjoyable. The food was amazing! Very tasty and fulfilling from the tasty, chicken tenders, delicious corn fritters to the hearty mashed potatoes to name a few items. The nostalgia inside the restaurant is incredible to see. From classic cars to household items from yesteryear. Even the animals outside were wonderful to see. A great way to walk off the delicious food we had! We truly enjoyed ourselves and keep it up!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What an interesting place. Had high hopes until we were practically booted out of there because we only wanted salads. It wasn’t enough 2 of ordered the chicken dinners and the other 2 do not like their food so the kids ordered salads. The waitress was so cruel but we kept our cool. We also ordered a 4 price to go so not sure what the problem was. Never again.

The food is still very good. However every change they make only drives more customers away. Zero consideration is given to making it customer friendly. In my opinion it is the reason they are no longer busy. Here are a few examples: Won’t seat until full party is present (even though the restaurant is half empty) No split checks Even if celebrating a birthday you can’t bring a birthday cake (they allowed this for decades) No green vegetables.

We used to come here as kid's and there are plenty of accurate reviews. I'll be very specific to foreign tourists. This place is situated in a part of the suburban Chicago area that was very recently farmland. Trekking out to White Fence used to be reserved for special occasions. I'm saying that because it's now situated amidst boring unscenic distribution centers. That doesn't detract from the overwhelming authenticity Americana of this place. It's gonzo Americana Disney would envy and the FOOD WSS GREAT! We expected hackneyed tourist food but found crispy juicy chicken, house-made garnishes and dessert, great coffee. Wisconsinites will recognized "Supper Club" groove. It's good food. Good crunch to Cole slaw, wonderful texture beans , bright beets. Skip the 'taters' if you're a foodie. Chicken was absolutely perfect. We would travel 50 minutes each way to enjoy this place. Reservations for parties greater than 8 only. Expect an entertaining 30-45 minute wait on peak weekend dinner slots. Wander. The kids Will remember.

Came here with some friends of ours the other day. I've only been here once before probably around 20 years or so ago. Overall, it was great just like I remembered. I love the ambiance upon entering the restaurant/museum. Lots of old, odd cool things to look at while wandering through. Old cars on display are sweet. One in particular would look great parked in my driveway! But I digress... On to the main event. We all ordered the fried chicken specialty with one specific side and endless other sides. The good: corn fritters were terrific. Bean salad was really good. Cottage cheese is cottage cheese; good. The great: the fried chicken. Probably not the best I've ever had, but it's really solid fried chicken. There really was no bad, but a couple things were just blah. The mediocre: the coleslaw and Mac and cheese. These are the only 2 items we had that I could do without. Overall, it's a great place and I recommend! Service was good and ambiance was good. For some reason there was no heat whatsoever in the bathroom...but whatever. We will be back if in the area again.

I had been wanting to try White Fence Farm for awhile. I had heard that it was a must try ans staple of the Chicago area for chicken. There used to be a few stop and grab locations, but this was the last dine in option. We got there around 5 on a Saturday. We were able to be seated right away. We ordered their specialty, the farm chicken. The farm chicken comes with 4 pieces of chicken plus sides. The sides included kidney bean salad, cole slaw, cottage cheese, beets, and corn fritters. You also get a choice of potato (baked, mashed, fries) or mac and cheese. I went with the mashed potatoes and gravy. Out of the sides, the only tolerable ones were the corn fritters and potato. The corn fritters were actually amazing and I would want have been happy if that was my whole meal. The mashed potatoes were good as well. I was really surprised by the corn fritters though. We ended up asking for extra to take home. For the chicken, I was really disappointed. The seasoning was WAY too salty. It was actually a little bit hard to eat for how salty it was. The breading was crispy, but it was really hard to get past the saltiness. For desert, we ordered ice cream. It was good. Standard good. So, one weird thing is they don't let you take any of the sides (I guess they call them relishes) home. So if you did happen to like something and didn't finish it, you couldn't take it home. Now, we finished all the corn fritters, so we were able to make a second order to go home. I know sometimes during an event where the food happens to be family style, you are unable to take the left overs home due to cross contamination. However, I have not heard of that when you are sitting at your own table at at restaurant. It kind of felt like they were just trying to charge more. I'm not sure. One cool thing about White Fence Farm, is it is like its own little activity. You can walk around the grounds (which are huge) and see a bunch of vintage things. You can also go to the petting zoo outside. Overall, I thought it had a nice concept, I just wish the food was better.

This place has been around forever - and every time I make it back here - it is a great meal every time. I've had fried chicken all around the country. I still rate this fire chicken the best fried chicken you'll find. They get the crust on the outside...with such a perfect lightness, but such crispness. And using pressure cooking techniques, the chicken always comes out moist and right. The relish sides are always quite good. The kidney bean salad is very very golden. The corn fritter fried dough balls; they're hard to stop eating! And last but not least: that yellow chicken gravy...gosh is it a unique great taste and flavor. Suggest everybody to try this place. Because once you do - you'll be hooked!!

this place was definitely unique and fun I never been to a restaurant that has soo many antiques and of course chickens on display. I loved all the machines I like the egg laying chicken machine as well as the tarot card reader those were super fun. the place is huge plenty of seating and service was great. I got the broasted chicken finger meal super hot crispy delicious. before the chicken they bring unlimited corn fritters which by the way we're amazing they tasted like funnel cake more of like a dessert along with beets kidney bean salad cole slaw and cottage cheese. I enjoyed the beats kidney bean salad and corn fritter the most. couldn't stop eating the corn fritters they were that delicious. I definitely will be back again as my experience there was a fun one and the food was delicious and tasty!

First time (finally) at the OG and it didn't disappoint! We got there just before open and got our number, and were called to our table in about 10 min. The lobby museum is amazing-- quite the history. We were seated in the bigger group area in back and had a nice booth. Our server was friendly and efficient with quick refills. The chicken? Likely the best fried chicken I've ever had -- perfectly crisp with very little oil residue and oh so moist. The sides are old school and very good-- cottage cheese, kidney bean salad included. The sides were bottomless and we enjoyed every bite. Oh and visiting the alpacas afterwards was fun!

I have not been here for at least 30 years and while some things have changed, most of it has not and it was just as I remembered. We had the farm chicken , four pieces of fried chicken with several sides. The chicken was fresh, juicy and delicious, just as I remembered it. The sides are cottage cheese, bean salad, beets, coleslaw and corn fritters. The beets were my favorite and if you want seconds , no problem. The place is like walking into a museum, lots of antiques, memorabilia from years past, antique cars and games. They were setting up a holiday village, which was at least 12 feet long. This is not a place you go often, but I was not disappointed and it brought back many memories.

I cannot get over how MASSIVE this restaurant is. It's remarkable! It's got a really old style with a lot of vintage trinkets. Groups, kids, and older people would really like this setting; it almost feels like a museum. It's been open since the 50s and has a cool old school vibe. If you're eating anything here, it would be a crime not to order the fried chicken. It's fantastic! They do bottomless relishes and fritters for the table which we love. We especially like the kidney bean salad and the fritters. So delicious! It is truly some great comfort food. If you have time, be sure to explore the grounds, animals, museum area, and train set up! There's really a lot to see.

This is HANDS DOWN the BEST chicken in the Universe!! I love the family style serving sides on table as soon as you sit down. The chicken is Super moist, Ultimately Crispy, Delicious, Delectable Finger Licking GREAT without being greasy at all!! It's IMPOSSIBLE!! How do they do it??? I believe they broast it!!! The ambiance is unrivaled across the entire state. This is the Original place, so much to see and take photos of!!! Don't walk, RUN to this place for the Best chicken you will ever have in your entire life. It was like my grandma was alive again!!! Thanks So Much! Super Nice Friendly Staff!!! Lots of parking!! Go go go!!!

EXCUSE ME?! Why didn't I know about this place sooner? This is a must go to and then go again because it is that delicious! This location offers a dine in restaurant and carry out option as well. It is everything farm like, including farm animals that you can feed - it's super cool. The inside is very spacious with lots of character. Aside from multiple seating areas there are also lots of rooms you can walk through and just take in all the decor. We had Amy as our server and she was attentive, kind, friendly and provided top quality service. My fiancé and I both ordered the farm chicken speciality which came with 5 relishes that the table shares, half a chicken each and a side of your potato choice (or Mac n cheese). This is hands down the best fried chicken I've ever had. The batter is light and crispy, the chicken meat is juicy and cooked perfectly and falls right off the bone. The relishes are just as great, very tasty and you are also able to get refills of them. My favorite were the kidney beans and corn fritters. Oh! Do get the gravy, it's phenom!!

Perhaps our server was having a bad day? Ordered large T-bone medium rare, brought a well done ribeye. Waited a really long time for the correct steak. Was slightly undercooked but was fine, just wish it had a sear. We came in early and every table had turned over near us. It just would have been nice to get a refill on pop. The decor is the real show, plan on spending a little time reminiscing with the antiques. Think I'll stick to the chicken.

In an age where restaurants are cutting quality to save coats, White Fence Farm stands out as a place to get a wholesome meal. Their fried chicken dinner is the best value and can easily feed an adult and one child. They offer a variety of entrées but I travel for their Chicken dinner. Always moist inside and crispy on the outside. The best chicken dinner in Chicagoland! No fake food here! I also love the venue because it is a mix of collection displays donated by past customers and families. The restaurant is huge and almost like a museum as you wait for a table. Outside they have a chicken enclosure where kids can see firsthand how they live on a homestead farm. I highly recommend this restaurant that has kept it's quality post Covid! Well worth the trip!

First time coming to this establishment and i was extremely impressed . Its like traveling back in time i loved all the antiques there were cars washing machines bikes lots of figurines and of course chickens. There were cool machines that cost 25cents and 50cents for chicken eggs and tarot cards those were fun. I ordered the half chicken meal with mashed potato it was really delicious hot and crispy. They started us off with cottage cheese beets kidney beans salad coleslaw and corn fritters. The corn frittters were like eating dessert similar to a funnel cake i couldnt stop eating.

We have been going for years and enjoy going there. The food is good. A little pricey but the ambiance is always interesting to look at. Unfortunately it's a little old school so it doesn't seem to attract a younger crowd.

Absolutely amazing I loved it as a first timer! Best chicken I've ever had! I'd been wanting to try it forever

The chicken and macaroni and cheese are always great. But avoid being seated in Mel's section. Her service is awful. She spent more time yelling at us that she would be right with us and apologizing for being slow than she did waiting on us. She banged my plate down in front of me like she was slopping hogs and never came back to check on us. The worst wait service that I've had in years

Over the years, we have eaten here many times, although I haven't been to this particular location in about a decade or so. We ordered a pieces of chicken corn, fritters mashed potatoes and gravy and coleslaw. Just say I was shocked when I saw how tiny the chicken was I recently had Jewel chicken and quite honestly it was about twice the size of what I got from my fence farm had about a third of the cost. Things are tough and everything else but for $30 and change plus tax it seemed like quite a bit a lot of money for the year small amount of chicken that I was given, I remember their breast being so large and that I could only trip I had two and two wings and I wasn't full. It's a shame. It's a nice place and it's been around a long time but the quality of the chicken compared to the cost, it's just not there. I won't be returning. It'll be my last trip there The mashed potato gravy were really hot which was good and they tasted just fine. The coleslaw made with vinegar was delicious. That's probably my favorite thing corn. Fritters I didn't like spit it out. Just didn't like it although good was a tad bit greasy and again just very small. A lot of people I can respect that but for the cost that we paid the chicken was just waffling in adequate. They should not sell chicken that small. My opinion not worth money seek elsewhere so much competition out there.

The daughter and I stopped in at the start of a cross-country drive. Saw the billboard advertising fried chicken and had to stop. So glad we did. We got their right when they opened so it took a few minutes to get to our table. This place is HUGE!!! They have at least three giant dining rooms, but it still manages to have a small restaurant charm. The decor is down home country style. The food is served family style and is so delicious. The sides are addictive. Kidney bean salad, cole slaw, cottage cheese and corn fritters... We loved them all! We had the flash fried chicken and it was so juicy and delicious. I want some now just thinking about it. Next time I visit the Chicago area, we will definitely be going back. They have more than one location I think. This is the location I would go to. The service is pretty excellent. Get here and give them a try.

The chicken was gross. I know sometimes you just get a bad piece however all 3 tenders were stringy and dry and chewy in places chicken shouldn't be chewy. The ranch tasted good. I was with a party of 17. Between the time we ordered and when we got food it took an hour and an half. Was very disappointed with the food and service overall. French fries were amazing though.

After all these years, I finally went back and it was the same experience I always had of nostalgia in good family size meal

We travel almost an hour for the yummy crispiness of White Fence Farm fried chicken and it is so worth the drive! There's just something delicious about the way their chicken is cooked - moist and juicy meat, crispy and crunchy skin, not weigh you down greasy. It's just good! The sides or relish as they call it, are pretty good as well. We went for the fried chicken and it comes with kidney bean salad, vinegar cole slaw, cottage cheese, pickled beets, and corn fritters served family style. The kidney bean salad is pretty good - imagine potato salad without the potato but cooked kidney beans instead. Now the corn fritters are hard to describe, but they're light fried dough with sweet corn pieces studded throughout and dusted with powdered sugar (I think)... it's savory and sweet, fried and doughy, soft and slightly crispy - so dang good that one doesn't cut it! The server will refill the relish upon request so enjoy the corn fritters and ask for more! We've always had good service and today wasn't any different! Our server, Katie, was super nice and attentive. She checked on us frequently, refilled our beverages and sides often, and make sure we didn't need anything else each time. After we were full, we paid our bill and headed through their little "museum/memorabilia" area of collections. It's always cool to see items from years ago. This time around the rides were out of order, but my kids were way too old for them anyways. Why the four stars and not five stars? I just can't give five stars to any place that charges customers 3.5% extra for paying by credit card instead of cash! What is the justification?

Love this establishment. Wish it had more outlets in the surrounding communities that offered carry out and dining in for lunch & dinner (nothing big)

Chicken/fish mediocre, had to wait 1/2 hour for our reservation of 16 people. Not enough servers! One server for our party. Museum was outdated with a lot of uninteresting items. Will not return.

This is my grandma's favorite restaurant and it is HUGE. They only take reservations for parties over 8 so be prepared to wait a bit for a table. We got there at opening on a Sunday morning and were able to be seated right away but when we left there was a wait. The restaurant has a mini museum with antique cars and interesting collections. It reminds me of a grandmas house. Dinner/lunch was delicious. Sides are family style and not what I would have thought to be delicious but are...the kidney bean salad...so good! I don't like chicken skin but I ate the skin here because it was crispy and delicious! After dinner we took my son to the area with the alpacas and he LOVED IT! Overall a great Sunday lunch with the family at white fence farm!

It's been a few years since I had been here, just as I remembered it. It truly is a snap shot back in time. Dining rooms are pristine, chicken still some of the best you'll have. The sides are what make this place special as well as the collections of such cool items. Fun to feed the animals after dinner.

Chicken was excellent. Extremely busy as it was Father's Day. Maybe a 15 minute wait as we got there at 11:55. They don't open on Sunday till Noon. The service was great too. I'll be back.

Been hearing about this place for decades. My parents never took us, so when I had an opportunity to take my own family, I was super excited. It is a very unique place, but at the end of the day you have to have great food and that was not the case. The chicken was bland and almost dry. The "relishes" they give you ahead of time we're just OK (the coleslaw was swimming in vinegar). The corn fritters everyone raves about were bland -- not crispy and barely luke warm. We visited on a Sunday evening at about 6:30. It was busy, but not packed. There really is no excuse for the food being as bad as it was. We checked it off our list and won't likely be back unless coerced.

My wife and I have been here a dozen times but not in the last 15 years. We returned last night with our kids and 4 grandkids. I felt a great deal of nostalgia which prompted me to write this poem: Amidst the charm of yesteryears, White Fence Farm stands, Where golden chicken and family cheer join hands, Decades' embrace, a warm and homely place, Where crispy fried delights invite with grace. Generations returned, a nostalgic blend, Kids and grandkids 'round the farm, a tale to extend, Feeding animals, a delight in the rear, Each cluck and crow, a moment dear. The waiting room, an antique treasure trove, From cars to toys, each piece tells a trove, Arcade games with chickens and eggs to bestow, Laughter echoes, a quarter's joy to show. Amidst these relics, memories take flight, Shared meals, joy, and wonder, all in sight, White Fence Farm, a haven of old and new, Where family, feasts, and laughter ensue. Laura, Thank you for preserving a legendary iconic restaurant. Alex and team were great!

Well, this place has gone. No longer the friendly place to bring your family. Server was the only good thing. Food was cold, over cooked. Fish was soggy and baked potatoes so small not worth spending $250 for 8 people. Will never ever be back. Sorry just not what it used to be. Call the American Pickers and sell off all your antiques and close your doors.

Being from the Joliet area, this is a long time favorite of many for their fried chicken. Most common thing ordered is their farm chicken (1/2) which is served with unlimited refills on side dishes of bean salad, cole slaw, cottage cheese, pickled beets and corn fritters. You don't have to get them all but they all were tasty. The corn fritters were my favorite item. Too bad you can't take extra sides home but you can take home the leftover chicken. My guess is most people will have some leftover. At $16 per person, I felt it was a good value for the quality and quantity of food. On top of it all, the service is superb. I went back again in a few weeks and service and food was great again. You have to love consistency like this.

It's still great chicken! The corn fritters and bean salad are great too. Fun place for dinner or a celebration.

For many years, Harold's was my favorite fried chicken. But I went to White Fence for my birthday one year and it became my new favorite. The chicken is lightly coated, not heavily batter dipped, and it resembles the chicken my mom made when I was a kid. It's plump and juicy, and firm. Yes, I'm still talking about chicken. They bring out all these sides with your chicken meal, beans, coleslaw, biscuits, corn fritters, etc. Supposedly you can get a pretty good steak here, but I'm not going to White Fence for steak. I'm not going to Bavette's for fried chicken either, even though that's supposedly really good too. WF also has some pretty fun collections of antiques around the entry and a game room with some old vintage carnival games. Cute animals are around back, so go see some goats after dinner.

It is more about the experience than the food for me. A fun retro/vintage setting with lots of assorted memorabilia and a casual "on the farm" feeling. The chicken is good but was a little salty and lacked a little flavor. The oil used to fry the chicken was maybe on the older side or lower quality side, as it imparted a bit of an aftertaste. Amazing side dishes/relishes. Good brandy ice. The server was a little indifferent toward my party, and didn't make eye contact, but all in all I'd go back for the fun environment. The food could have been better but was still above average.

Let me start by saying the food here was excellent. However, please beware that this place charges a credit card fee of 3.5%. This is ILLEGAL on debit cards, which is what I used. Look it up. You can file a complaint here. https:// usa.visa.com/Forms/visa-rules.html Personally I am sick of these practices. Makes the business look small and petty. Also, $20 for half a chicken and a potato and veggies is ridiculous.

We do carryout more than anything, and this place has the best fried chicken in the area. So fresh. Staff is friendly, and they hustle. Whatever you do make sure you get some corn fritters.

Checked the website before leaving the house. Website states the hours on Saturday and Sunday are noon to 8:00. Arrived at 2:30 PM to find a sign on their door "Revised Hours: 4:00 to 8:00". Seriously?!?! You can't post your revised hours on your website?? You resort to A SIGN?! Just terrible! Other people were standing at the door bewildered as well - not just me. WFF should have more consideration for their customers. It's like they don't even care......

First the food was okay, with a few exceptions. The chicken was very good, nice and crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. The kidney bean salad, I was adamant I wasn't going to like, but surprisingly it tasted amazing. The other sides like the cottage cheese was nothing special. The coleslaw was way too vinegary for my liking. The pickled beets were ok if you ate them with the chopped onions, but I have never really liked pickled beets. Sadly, the corn fritters were the biggest disappointment. I've have better, and was hoping these would be amazing too...wrong. The service was great, our waiter was very nice. The restaurant itself was homey and very welcoming.

Fried Chicken is still good but not as good as before. I agreed with the previous reviewer. Lack of sanitation practice. That's why I don't really dine in there. Just carry out. But one thing that kind of shocks me, everytime I call in for carry out order they always ask "Shall I add the tip all together with the charge?" Tsk! tsk!

My absolute favorite restaurant in Chicago! They have great food at a fantastic price. It's hard to find deals like this nowadays. You get a bunch of chicken and unlimited sides for around $20. That's just the food, though. They also have a museum in the restaurant and plenty of fun games for kids - not to mention the llamas and goats outside! This place has a splendid old-time ambiance. There are so many cool pieces of history in the restaurant. My favorite part about the restaurant is that it reminds me of my grandparents. We used to go here with them before they died, and we enjoyed some great with them here. I love the White Fence Farm. Please don't ever change!

I would like to start this off with the service being great but when it comes to the food it was disappointing. We came here to celebrate my brother's birthday and everyone in my family recommended this place because they haven't visited it in decades. As we walk in you can see the disgust and shock that this place hasn't been changed probably since it's opening in the 1920s. Also, as soon as you walk in you can smell that this place is very old and has a very big old audience. Then when you finally get to your seats and order their famous chicken you are very disappointed... IT WAS SO GREASY! I will never come here again! Then when my family ordered desert the ice cream was fully melted!

I have been going to White Fence Farm for over 40 years. I went there several weeks ago and was greatly disappointed with my experience at the restaurant. They used to be more generous with the side dishes, now they only refill them once in a while. The corn fritters were dry, the slaw didn't taste very good and the beets were not pickled. The mashed potatoes were not hot and the chicken also tasted different. Over all it was not the enjoyable place it used to be. In addition, the price of a chicken meal was exorbitant for the quality of the food.

I came to Chicago in 1975. For years, I wanted to go out to White Fence Farms Restaurant to try their chicken. After all these years, I finally got to get my chance to go out and try their meal. To start with the waitress did not have a clue about what she was doing. We asked her what kind of tequila do you have she replied Tito's I asked her you sure, and she said yes, being also a Tito's drinker he said OK bring me the Tito's Strike one We ordered one of the broasted chicken and one of their grilled chicken. The waitress delivered two grilled chickens Strike Two. The baked potatoes that came were extremely overcooked hard on the outside and way over, cooked and partially hollow inside. It looks like they were cooked hours ago. If the kitchen was paying attention, they would've known because the outside of the potatoes were so hard Strike three The waitress brought us an assortment of tasty relishes. While we waited for a meal, she never once came back and asked if we'd like some more. I had to ask halfway through a meal to get another portion of those relishes. On another note, we asked about the menu item that was labeled as Icelandic white fish. I asked was the white fish cod. She said no it's white fish. Turns out it was cod. In all my years I've never heard cod being labeled as white fish. White fish is what you get up in Wisconsin at a fish boil I waited so many years to try out this place. It was the first and last time that'll be there. Sorry that this reviews that hard but it's the truth.

Love their chicken. So fresh and juicy made to order you can tell. Their corn fritters are awesome too.

Love this place! This has been a restaurant that our family celebrates birthdays at for decades. The chicken is delicious and the decor is unique. It's great for adults and kids alike. My grandfather used to celebrate his birthday here almost every year. He's gone now, and this restaurant is a good way for us to remember him. The staff is friendly and there is ample parking. Very reasonable prices and plenty of seating. The corn fritters are the best!

Usually just get takeout, the Chicken and fritters are just so so good that's honestly all I personally get when I go there for dinner

Been going to White Fence Farm for many many years, food is still good as it was but service has been a little lackluster

Fried chicken was great! Ambiance felt like a old timer southern home! The mini museum is a great treat to look at before you eat! However when my waiter was giving me my plate with fried chicken on it it slipped off the plate and fell on the table. He then stared at it and walked away... As he comes back we tell him you dropped the chicken on the table his response "What do you want me to do about it" I would have given this place a 5 star rating if he would have answered more politely or even apologized at least. But he didn't the food was still great! However the service is questionable.

My husband has long bragged about White Fence Farm as having the best chicken around, so we went for our tenth anniversary. As this was a special anniversary, I was expecting something special. As we have dined at Del Rhea's in the past, loved the food, but hated the service, I was expextecting a real treat from White Fence Farm. While, the service was above and beyond our expectations, the chicken was just average. I ordered the roast chicken, and my husband ordered the house special, fried chicken. The sides and relishes were very good, best corn fritters I have had by far. However, my chicken was not roasted, it was broiled. It lacked seasoning, and the breast portion was dry. My husband's was juicy but lacked all seasonings. We ended up dipping our chicken in the gravy that came with my mashed potatoes. I really wanted to love this place. It is decorated in classic Americana style with may antiques (which I love!). But I could have gotten better chicken from the supermarket, both roasted and fried or cooked it myself. Roast chicken is always my favorite, I feel misled. My husband's apple pie was good, but my parfait was not a parfait at all. It was a vanilla sundae with strawberry sauce :( The coffee was pretty good. This place was a pretty big disappointment.

White Fence Farm is a beloved local institution. The chicken is cooked consistently and to perfection! The side dishes similar to what my grandma would serve. I'm not a huge coleslaw fan, but White Fence has some of the best around! Need eat lunch or dinner with a big group of twenty or more? No problem! Everyone in my large group received their dinners pipping hot! There are some chicken alternatives available, as well as a vegetarian option. I'm sticking with the fried chicken!
