Best chicken restaurant?

The best time to go is when it's busy, then you are pretty much guaranteed chicken that was just fried.
For me Chick-Fil-A still has the best sandwich. I tried the BK chi-king this weekend it was good but it had terrible iceberg lettuce chunks from the center of the lettuce head, it ruined it for me... Chick-Fil-A uses leaf lettuce and has other things going for it too, a lot of people love their waffle fries, and sauce.
I had one for lunch. Pretty good as far as Burger King goes. I wouldn't be driving past a Chick-fil-a or Popeyes to get one, but it's not a bad option.
I mean, when we're talking best chicken sandwich on there, the options are limited especially for most people's knowledge in here when a good number of them are regional chains not located in Iowa.
I'm partial to the spicy sandwiches. So that's going to skew my preference. You go down through the list and most of them either A) don't have a spicy option at all or B) created a 'spicy' option by simply throwing a spicy sauce on top of their regular chicken sandwich, as opposed to having a different seasoning entirely for their spicy sandwiches as CFA does.
AFUCKINGMEN. Anyone that just adds spicy sauce to their regular chicken sandwich and calls it spicy can go rot in hell

Tom Thumb and Ja-mar both have excellent broasted chicken it really comes down to who's sides you prefer.
Chick-fil-A for best fast food chicken and it's not even close. Spicy Chicken Deluxe w/ pepperjack and mayo, crispy waffle fries dipped in Chick-fil-A sauce, and a cold Coke/Dr. Pepper is amazing.
But it's not just the food. It's the service. I've never seen anything like it at any other restaurant. There could be 200 cars in our local drive-thru and your wait will still only be about 5 minutes lol.

The Popeyes chicken sandwich is amazing. I figured it was way too hyped up and I was going to be disappointed but that sandwich is solid. I actually like it better than Jesus chicken.
The Chick-fil-A app is second to none too. The curb side delivery is a game changer. I typically hit the WDM University location and that drive through is a disaster. I've never sat in that line fewer than 15 minutes but that has nothing to do with the service, the line is just that long.
I will say, Arby's has a very good chicken sandwich too. When I was close to one at a previous place I worked, I almost always got the chicken sandwich; also bonus for curly fries.
Not to keep revisiting the subject but my last two visits to Poopies is exactly why I call it that. That said, I would like to try the sandwich because of all the hype.
We were at Smokey D's last night and I swear their menu board had a little ad for Ornery Chicken. I could have sworn it said something about "check out our new place" or something to that effect.
