Hathaway's Chicken N Biscuits

Two things...you know a spot is good when you can smell flavor from outside and secondly, seeing folks diving into their to-go orders before even starting their vehicles. I enjoy finding longstanding mom and pop restaurants...it's akin to finding a treasure. That quintessential southern grandma's home feeling is very unique and offers such a warm and cozy experience. Hathaways Chicken-n-Biscuits is Southern comfort food personified. This has to be a well known go-to spot in Monroe because the patrons never stopped coming. After eating there I completely understand why!!Upon entry you're so warmly greeted. I was easily recognized as a first timer. The cashier was kind enough to walk me through the options and recommend I get the Businessman...and I did.I truly felt like my meal was prepared with lots of love and care. The tea and lemonade were sweet...get extra ice. The fried chicken was seasoned well and fried extra crispy. The sides were so delicious. The green beans had a good bite to them and not soft and mushy as I've experienced at other restaurants. And the best part is all this for less than $10. That's a steal!I may have been recognized as a first timer but it surely won't be my last time. If in the Monroe area stop in for good southern hospitality and great food.

Hands down, the best fried chicken in Monroe and probably Union County as a whole. We needed some takeout after a busy day, so we decided to get some Hathaway's chicken to take home. Our past experiences have been fabulous; we were hooked after trying their biscuits for the first time. One of the staff members told us that they grate frozen butter into the biscuit dough.The chicken crust tastes like fatback. It's crispy and full of flavor, while the chicken is juicy. We also love their potato wedges since they're crispy. Additionally, we tried some of their slaw this time and it has a great texture. The experience we had tonight was no different than any of our past experiences, even despite a 45 minute drive home. For sure better than a fast food chicken restaurant!

I ordered delivery of 50 box meals consisting of chicken tenders, green beans, potato wedges and Mac and cheese. We were feeding 50 hungry college lacrosse players from Lakeland Florida who were eating and then leaving for a 10 hour bus ride home. First of all Brian was very nice to work with. His food was excellent and was a good portion to keep them satisfied all the way home. The chicken tenders were hot and crispy and the green beans were what you would expect from. NC! Very good! He gave them setups and napkins which was great because we surely didn't have that. Our players surely enjoyed this meal.

No ambiance but the food is Good!Parking lot always jammed full.Chicken excellent and chicken livers are worth the trip.

I'm a transplant from Los Angeles and I was told about this place gotta be there so here I am! I am a diehard fried chicken fan . This place is pretty good pretty good . Can't say a negative thing about it .

Now you might feel differently, but I PREFER a local spot with really good food over a national restaurant chain ANY day . . . and TWICE on Sundays. Take me literally today . . . it IS Sunday and I was craving a piece of fried chicken moments ago.So I looked up and saw the sign, "Hathaway's Chicken & Biscuits" and my reptile brain took over. It was a meteorite, you see, that wiped out the dinosaurs . . . but their preternatural ability to suss out a tasty 2-piece and a biscuit still lives within us -- if we will but listen closely.Listen closely HERE and the locals will tell you how moIst and tender is the chicken. How flakey the biscuits are and precisely how savory the sides. Watch as they load up on take out plates INCLUDING gallons of the excellent iced tea and lemonade.If you cannot quite hear your own inner dinosaur (aka chicken-eating chicken), take a listen to mine here:"Bah-gawk!"That's Jurassic/Chicken for, "Nomnonnom! Eat at Hathaway's"

Best bone in wings in the area. Perfect for wing fans that like heat and flavor. Biscuits are light and fluffy. Have been a fan for two decades.

One of our favorite all time chicken places!! They make sure your order is correct no matter if it is a take out or dine-in. If you love fried chicken and tater wedges -- this is the place for you!! Their sides all really good. My family and I love Hathaways!!

1st time eating here, it was very VERY good! Chicken was crispy but not dry, mac n cheese was yummy and so was the strawberry cake!!! Definitely bringing my family back!

I tried it off strength of reviews. I ordered 3 wings n potato wedges. Wouldn't revisit. Chicken wasn't seasoned well. It needed salt bad. The potato wedges are home made but again no seasoning. The food tasted like it was refried after placing order, with bad grease. I only ate flat off two wings n 2 potato wedges. I expected so much more. I fry chicken better than that at home. I paid $12 with large drink. Over priced forreal...the biscuit is too thick of dough...only in area for work
