3.0
The chicken was absolutely awful — it tasted old and seemed double-fried. When we asked for a refund, the staff insisted that’s how the chicken is supposed to look, which was disappointing. The mashed potatoes were watery and lacked flavor. Overall, it was a complete waste of money. Definitely wouldn’t recommend. ! - Karen Espinoza

Church's Texas Chicken Introduce

If you're in the Phoenix, Arizona, area and craving classic, Southern-style comfort food, look no further than Church's Texas Chicken. As a staple in the quick-service industry, this location on W Camelback Rd offers the bold flavors of Texas-inspired fried chicken, tenders, and sides that have satisfied customers since the brand’s founding in 1952. It stands as a go-to spot for an affordable and quick meal, whether you're feeding the family or just grabbing a quick bite during your busy day.

The establishment operates as a full-service chicken restaurant, providing options suitable for individual meals, family gatherings, and catering for larger events. It blends the convenience of a fast-food setting with the heartiness of a family restaurant, focusing on hand-battered and double-breaded chicken that is fried to a golden crisp. The experience is designed to be casual and focused on quick service.

However, it is important for prospective customers to be aware that the general consensus on the service and food quality at this specific location, based on available public feedback, is mixed. Some patrons have praised the food and efficiency, noting that the chicken can be "the best chicken" they have had from a Church's location and that the drive-thru service is fast. Conversely, other customers have reported issues such as food tasting old, undercooked, or having incorrect items in their orders. The overall rating for the location often hovers in the "Good" range with ratings such as 3.8 stars out of 5 based on hundreds of reviews, but individual experiences, as noted in customer complaints, can be highly variable. One serious, documented complaint alleges racial discrimination and refusal of service, an issue that Church's Texas Chicken corporate office would be expected to address immediately and thoroughly according to its established policies and state and federal non-discrimination laws, as such actions are a clear violation of customers' civil rights.

Despite these reported issues, the location remains an operational and accessible fast-food option for the community seeking the brand's signature menu items.

The location of this Church's Texas Chicken makes it an easy stop for many residents and commuters in the Phoenix area. You can find the restaurant at:
