Krispy Krunchy

When I'm craving crispy fried chicken and have the time and courage to drive through that part of town, I head to this gas station Krispy Krunchy fried chicken spot on 23rd Street. It's so good! The chicken is crispy, tasty, and flavorful, and the few times I've been there, it's been consistently great. Since the chicken is all to go, it's perfect for busy workdays when I just need a quick dinner for the kids. They also offer side dishes like fries, though I haven't tried them yet.I usually just grab the fried chicken, cook rice at home, and serve it with banana ketchup--my kids love it.As for ambiance, there isn't any. It's a gas station, so you order your chicken through a window and take it home--no dine-in option. But honestly, the food makes it totally worth it!

Why does Yelp! keep posting duplicates of the same review.....?I don't make it a habit to buy fried chicken from a gas station, but I might start! It's like KFC and Popeye's, but less stuff on the outside, more chicken on the inside. Very lightly spicy. And now they have COLES LAW! Buy gas, buy beer, buy fried chicken to go. Thanks, Mike, for bringing me. After my second visit, this quite possibly is "America's best-kept fast-food secret."If you choose to give a thumbs-up or not, I hope you found my review helpful!

Thanks to other Yelpers, we tried this little hole in the wall, mini-mart, in Richmond - for better than the chain store, tender fried chicken!!I thought I was at the wrong place, to be honest. Once inside, they have a real deal set up, no-nonsense counter, and a sweet order taker who will crack a smile if you smile at her, taking your order quickly and efficiently. You then walk over to the mini-mart cashier, 4 feet to the left, and pay for your order and whatever other mini-mart grocery must have. I then waited for my order while watching how much perfectly, hot and fried, chicken was being produced behind the counter case. It didn't have time to sit under a heat lamp, it went into the container to my box within minutes. We ate a hardy meal of chicken, mash potatoes and gravy, Mac n cheese, red beans and rice, Cole slaw, fries and shrimp. Admittedly, the sides were just ok, in comparison. The flavors were there, but they were packaged beforehand and sat, so they didn't taste as fresh.You know that chicken was still crunchy and delicious eaten cold, the next day! Wow.

Definitely one of the better Krispy Krunchy's around town. Clean chill environment, helpful friendly staff, chicken is not super greasy and is very crispy, sides are fresh. Would've been 5 stars, but my order did not have the chicken sandwich I ordered and we were on our lunch break so we couldn't head back. Regardless, we'll be back because this spot is good and KKC always hits the spot. Especially them blueberry muffins.

Disappointed to find out no more 6 piece dark meat special. They only had 1 special, 4 chicken wings for $9.99. The chicken is still good. I got a 2piece leg & thigh w/biscuit for $6..

I did not believe in eating gas station chicken but to be honest they have some of the best chicken I have tasted and the people are very friendly and give great service

The best chicken around. This location is always fresh and the chicken is always seasoned properly. I will drive further to come to this location. The chicken is delicious. Don't let the fact that it is inside a gas station deter you.

best. fried. chicken. EVER! also the honey biscuits here are literally some of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. Do yourself a favor and get AT LEAST the 6 pack of biscuits, because you WILL devour them. They are what I'd imagine heaven tastes like. We've picked up chicken here at least 4 or 5 times now, but I haven't written a review because I keep forgetting to take photos! But every single time has been delicious, without fail.Their fried chicken is so crispy and crunchy - it definitely lives up to its name. On top of that though, the meat inside is so juicy and flavorful - they inject cajun seasoning into the chicken so you can see the strips of orange inside too. So good! Also the chicken with some honey is also delicious for that sweet and salty flavor. Forgot to mention, you can order just dark/white meat here, or mix! We love dark and the dark is cheaper too, so we love that. Also their chicken is very reasonably priced in general!We wanted to try their cracklings as well, but they didn't have them today. We'll have to try them next time! I'm not sure if the other locations are as good as this one, but since we've had an amazing experience here every single time, we keep coming back here. Plus it's the one closest to our place! When ordering, you order at the counter but then get in line for the gas station side because you'll pay there. After you pay, you'll receive a stamped receipt which you'll redeem back at the chicken counter for your meal! While it may look sketchy because it's at a gas station (or does that make it better?), it is the best fried chicken and I guarantee you'll love it!

Ugh I've never been inside the store so I don't know what the service is like but honestly this chicken is so buss. I just love the orange stuff inside, I stopped getting kfc and popeyes after eating a krispy krunchy thigh for the first time. Need to come back even though I dont like going in gas stations not the ambiance vibes.

That they give you your complete order when you order it. My husband had gotten chicken and biscuits with his gas and they didn't even put in the biscuits he paid for.
