A place called “The Coop Chicken Fingers” with a Fox mascot?! 😛😃 I’m in! Food: 5/5 The chicken fingers are on point!!! The tender sizes are consistently generous (and then some) and the fries and bread in the meal are filling. And if you are trying the “Spicy” fingers, be ready to sweat a bit😅. A 3-finger meal is filling, but get a 4-finger to enjoy the +1 at the end! Service: Super-friendly staff. Eliot checked-in right away and brought us our food in about 3 mins! He also explained how they use premium breading, is hand-battered, and fried to tender upon ordering. Not things that someone would tell a customer - unless wanting to keep the service above and beyond! So thanks, Elliot! Additionally, they also have a rewards system once you order through their Clover ordering screen Atmosp

Ordered thru door dash, some of the best chicken fingers I’ve ever had! Ames definitely needed a place like this!

The chicken was fresh and tasted good. The portion size is great. The size of each chicken finger is large and filling. 5-finger meal comes with a toast.

Stopped in Saturday for the first time, staff was very helpful and the food was great. Stopped Monday to get a family pack so the kids could try them out, they love it!!!! The chicken fingers are juicy and the breading is light and crispy! Keep up the good work!

Was on my way to Freddy's when I saw this place open. I walked in and ordered and talked to the owner a little bit about everything. He has plenty of experience under his belt and the food shows for it. The chicken was crunchy and juicy to the point where the box has condensation on the inside. Staff is super friendly including the owner. Food was fantastic, fries were seasoned a lot (if that's your thing) and the toast was crunchy. I got the spicy option which is a dry breading and it was fantastic. The atmosphere could use a little work inside but they are brand new and I don't expect them to be going crazy on the inside just yet. Overall fantastic food and I WILL be going back there again.
