Some of the best chicken I've ever had and their desserts are to die for! Also, did the fish fry phenomenal?!
The Broasted chicken is just phenomenal!!! Just a real home style restaurant. We went for the first time on a Sunday evening and the owner sat with us and told us her whole history in the business. Will definitely go back to try other food!!!! Reminds me of going to White Fence Farm when I was a kid, but better!!!
Hubby got 2 servings of the chicken - and it truly is THAT GOOD! I had the Reuben sandwich and it was delicious. Best down home service you will ever get. Try to save room for dessert!
My husband and I had not been to Crandall's for at least ten years, but I'm happy to report that they are just as good as they ever were. We went for fish fry (my husband) and a steak (me), it was all simply delicious. Now we went about 4:30 pm on Friday night, seated right away. The server was right there with menus and asking about drinks. The food didn't take long, I think the only reason we waited is because I ordered a steak which was cooked perfectly. The place wasn't busy when we first got there, but after we were seated it was hopping. I have always loved the decor in the place because it's so charming, quiet and relaxed. I was totally happy with our experience and will return - 5 stars from us.
I personally think that Crandalls is better than White Fence Farm. I have been on this planet for 28,063 days and I can't remember having a better piece of chicken. after lunch I ordered slice of cherry pie to go and when I get home I enjoyed a wonderful treat. All in all I had a wonderful dining experience, and I shall be back. My waitress was very very nice and attentive. I SHALL RETURN.
An excellent spot for fresh, never frozen juicy, broasted chicken. We had an eggs-ceptional time!
Hidden gem in Hebron the best broasted chicken! you walk into a farmhouse style homely atmosphere. When seated at the table they bring over a basket of hot buns half sweet like cinnamon roll and other savory. With all the farms around the chicken is very fresh as well as hot crispy and all you can eat!! this includes a choice of mashed potato or fries and coleslaw. highly recommended it was super busy when we came in however service is excellent and food is delicious.
We ordered 60 pieces of chicken along with rolls and butter packs for a party over the weekend. They were easy to work with, it was affordable, and best of all the chicken was excellent! It was hot, juicy, and even after two hours of sitting idle at 200degrees still tasted excellent. We normally come here for the all you can eat broasted chicken dinners and really enjoy this establishment for dinner, but today they went over the top to ensure a great chicken dinner for 40 people.
