Wishbone - University City

3 stars for creativity. They charge by weight for chicken. I ordered their “Legendary Mac & Cheese” 1/2 lb. it tasted decent, it was different because it was more crunchy than cheesy. Their prices were a little high but it’s Philly so I can’t expect less. I really like how their restaurant was set up. Definitely a nice atmosphere to eat and relax while reading a book or surfing the Internet on your laptop.

My husband had the Wishboner - he said it was hearty, hot, and tasty. He also enjoyed the potato salad - he said it was creamy with a nice spice. I had the mac and cheese which was more like a casserole or pasta dish to me. The addition of sausage made it stiffer and drier than a traditional mac and cheese which is fine if you are into that. We split a biscuit with strawberry jam and it was fabulous. The banana pudding and the Mexican chocolate pudding were also amazing. The menu prices were staggeringly low for Philly. I can't wait to go back!

so glad we stumbled upon this place! the chicken sandwiches are to die for. we have tried the Wishboner, the Nashville Hot, and the Bahn Mi chicken sandwiches and I have ZERO complaints. also the fries are cooked and seasoned to perfection

Very disappointed by Wishbone. Photos are deceiving because this food is not good. The chicken is horrible! And that says a lot with it being a chicken restaurant. This chicken taste like it was old and re-fried. And by the color of the breading it’s clear the grease needs changed. Photo below of the wings and dark meat tenders.I am even more mad that this was our Fourth of July meal. Ordered two biscuits, only one in the box. The biscuit is more like cornbread. The honey butter and jam were cold so it didn’t even spread on the biscuit. I still can’t get over the chicken. It went right in the trash!

Had a lot of fun getting some chicken here with my little sisters last week. I've been a fan of Wishbone for a long time, but this was my first time visiting their U city location. If you've never been, all you need to know is get chicken and some fresh hot biscuits. They have the best, most buttery biscuits I've ever enjoyed in my life. Like so much butter I'm not sure it's legal, but I'm not reporting them for it! Would definitely go back in the future, and they're definitely a top pick for catering anything that chicken goes good with... so Everything.

Craft chicken. Delicious food sold by weight. Your order can get pricey so be cognizant. Great food and vibe.

I had been to this Wishbone before, but that was about a year and a half ago, and it had good food. Unfortunately, I couldn't say the same about it as of January 2022. A friend and I took a nice trip here expecting to have great chicken, but that just wasn't the case. I'm not a food critic per say, but it was hard to enjoy the food this time around, and unfortunately, I have to say that I made the wrong decision to come here. The customer service though, was great, as Shane was kind. The atmosphere was also pretty great, and that results in a 2 star.

Went here with my family this past Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The staff was very friendly, ambiance very cool, and most importantly the food was delicious. I had the chicken bahn mi sandwich which was fantastic. My picky 2 year old toddler loved everything he ate, chicken tendies, mac n cheese, fries, and dipping sauce. The tendies are the best and they even have a great salad option for those who want to eat healthier. Will definitely go back to this and their center city location!
