Hey guys we’re back with another New York eat. Sweet Chick is a nice little chicken spot with five locations in the state. During the warmer weather they do have outdoor seating, granted, it’s more of a remnant from the social distancing past. However, enjoying the outdoors with dividers provides a sense of personal space, allowing you to avoid feeling crowded by others outside your group. Best part is the waiters do come outside as well so you’re not completely sacrificing the restaurant experience. However, the only issue (this goes with any outdoor seating) was bugs, more specifically bees. Granted this only happened during one of my experiences in the warmer seasons a bee kept flying around the table. I think it may have sought a “boost” from fròse we ordered.
Now from my experiences, I had the chicken and waffles. The chicken wasn’t overly crispy where it would scrape your mouth. The waffles were incredibly fluffy inside. The food is made how the southern high priestess intended. You also have to try their mac n’ cheese; It’s ooey gooey goodness topped with breadcrumbs for a little crunch. And if you like to have a drink in the morning don’t worry. Sweet Chick has a little something something for the 21 and up crowd too. I got a little taste of their fròse. Personally for me it was passable, but that’s coming from someone who likes weak drinks that taste like straight juice. If you’re ever in these parts of New York make sure you stop by a Sweet Chick to get your chicken fix. Another thing to remember, if you can’t go personally they also do delivery.
