Nashville Coop

This place has gone so far downhill from its opening. When I first got their food it was spicy, cheap and really good. Excellent, friendly service and a speaker playing music at a pounding volume. Tonight was probably the last time I’ll bother going. Dead silent outside of the vague mutters of employees. I walked up to the counter to order and was pointed towards a screen hanging loosely off a wall. Terrible menu construction on the screen meant it took me a solid 3 minutes of navigating menus to get everything ordered, ended up accidentally deleting things multiple times. I ordered four extra sauces, knowing the basket comes with two normally and I generally go through about six. I also ordered a mandarin jarritos. Plugged it in and the machine asked me for a tip, but the only service I noticed was having my bag placed on a counter for me to grab. They still have a nice short wait time. Food was done within five minutes. I picked up my bag and walked away, with 4 sauces, no drink and a coleslaw that tasted like it was made last week. The chicken isn’t even spicy anymore. What’s the point. Better times can be had at Revival or hell, probably a Buffalo Wild Wings if you want chicken that has some kind of kick.

This place is fire everytime I go! The chicken is moist and perfectly crispy, great variety of heat that you can pick depending on what you're into I also go with the coop now but I've tried a few of them. The mac is super cheesy and you can add seasoning to the top of it if you want to. The place is small inside but you can sit inside and eat or take it to go.

I walked in and an employee was eating. She gave me a death look as if I shouldn't be interrupting her. She got up, blew her nose and walked behind the counter without washing her hands. The place was dirty was dirty. If I can see the filth and witness you not washing your hands, I'm not eating your food so I walked back out.The chicken isn't real hot chicken, they sprinkle a seasoning over it. Don't waste your time here.

The sauce was perfectly seasoned and had just enough kick. I ordered the tenders in medium spice and they were a 10/10. The only reason it’s not all five starts is because I bought an extra sauce after I had already ordered and my change was given back to me in ALL Pennies! Yeah I didn’t like that but it was not the staffs fault they didn’t have any silver change. The other thing was the fountain drink station was not working during my visit ?I was disappointed. Will definitely be back next time I’m in Stp!

I'll start by stating, the food quality is fantastic, that's not my complaint. (I ordered a total of 6 tenders in the Coop style of heat) What I didn't like was the advertisement of this being Nashville style chicken. The only things I could see this having in common with real NSC is that its spicy and has some pickle flavor. Its missing the traditional sweet undertones NSC is known for, plus its not done the correct way. They use some form or dry seasoning. NSC is done using hot fry oil with the spices in the oil, not some dry seasoning blend. Don't get me wrong, the chicken is still good, and their dipping sauce was tasty as well! Its just not what most would consider to be NSC.
