Supporting our neighbors who got burglarized the same day we did! Shoutout to Terra Coffee, an awesome Guatemalan cafe in Avondale. We tried their most popular breakfast sandwich, the Chapin - made with eggs, sweet plantains, black bean spread, bacon, and white American cheese on an English muffin. It’s so good, go get it!!! They’re right by the Belmont blue line stop so next time you’re in the area, stop by and give them some love!!! 😍😍😍

We’ve had a lot of new people coming in for the first time to try our new Hot Chicken Caeser Wrap, which is awesome!!! THANK YOU! But have you tried our original sandwich - the Nashville??? It’s our number 1 for a reason!!! 😍😍😍

Did you know we have a full bar inside our West Town location?? It’s called Esther’s Tavern, and it’s open til 2am on the weekends!!! Even better- it’s named after my grandma Esther, who grew up in the neighborhood and got married at the church right down the street. Any why name it something different at all?? Well no one really wants to hang out at a sandwich shop at 1am. But come on down to Esther’s Tavern 🐔🍻 to get fried chicken & drinks til 2am on the weekends!!! Great happy hour too. See ya soon!

It keeps getting better!!! We’ve made two additions to our new Hot Chicken Caeser Wrap based on your feedback- we’ve added parm AND croutons inside the wrap!!! YUM. We are also working hard on our wrapping skills every day! Thank you all for trying them AND for the helpful feedback - glad you are loving them! 😍❤️

We are back in action with another local collab, and this time it’s at Massa Cafe!!! You do NOT want to miss this one!!!! It’s a hot chicken panuozzo collab between Fry the Coop and Massa, and you know we brought in some J.P. Graziano Hot Muffaletta! The panuozzo is available this weekend ONLY (Fri-Sun, Oct 23-25), only at Massa, and ONLY while supplies last! Stay tuned for tomorrow for all the details. We can’t wait!!! ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥 📍 Massa Cafe in Elmwood Park

In case you missed it!!! We don’t use the Corporate Truck company - and when we shared that, we got a LOT of comments saying whatever, we just use a different distributor. And of course we do!!! We have 10 locations and we have to get the ingredients here. We use an awesome family owned distributor called GFS Gordon Food Service and we love them. They’re not just our distributor, they are a true partner and they help us find and source local products for our stores on top of everything else they do!!! And they would NEVER try to push us toward some lame thing just to make more $. Sourcing ingredients and making our own food is a really big part of what makes Fry the Coop Fry the Coop. Example - our awesome Meadowvale, Inc. milkshakes which we would never have found without GFS!!! So thank you!!!!! And to anyone still watching and reading this, thank you for caring about what we do - it means the world and we are grateful to keep sharing it all with you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is a love letter to one of my favorite local vendors!!! 💌 And based on what they do and what we do, you probably wouldn’t guess who it is!! But you can put your guesses here and then watch to see everything we love about them. Did you guess right??? ❤️❤️❤️

Restaurants don’t have cash in them overnight!!!! Leave us alone!!!! I was already up at 4am today because I had something important to do - so when I got the call from the alarm company at 6am, I pulled up the cameras and basically watched these guys break into our Portage Park store in real time!!! Like a livestream of chaos and all for nothing. Burglaries like this create so much stress, work, and expense for small businesses. We have to repair the doors, the locks, the glass, replace our POS system, repair the hookup for that system that broke, bring people in early, open late, and so much more. We are all hands on deck to fix this right now (shoutout to our team!), and we will get up and running this morning as soon as we can. And if you do come in to get a sandwich today or soon, please say thank you to our team they are awesome!!! Thanks everyone ❤️❤️❤️
