Frenchy's Chicken
Included In
A Houston staple without a doubt, Frenchy’s Chicken has multiple locations around the city, but our favorite is in the Third Ward, just a few minutes away from Texas Southern University. Since opening in the ‘60s, their golden-brown fried chicken, boudin links, and gris gris sauce has kept this place busy day and night. The chicken here is consistently crispy and comes with an ACG (Audible Crunch Guarantee) every time. Add a side of mashed potatoes or a soft, buttery roll to round out your meal, or grab a slice of their rich sweet potato pie to get a full Frenchy’s experience. When you order here, you’ll wait anywhere from 20-30 minutes to get your food (yes, even if you’re in the drive-thru), but if even Beyoncé mentions it in one of her songs—it’s clearly worth the wait.
