I’ve gotten their food to go about 4 times now and each time it’s been delicious! As a grown person with a 2 year old, even I enjoy their chicken nuggets! Crispy white meat lightly fried to perfection! I had their chicken wings yesterday (medium heat) and I inhaled them! They weren’t very spicy and even had a sweetness to them that I really enjoyed! Highly recommend. Their chicken sandwiches are pretty good too and the oyster mushroom sandwich is good but should be eaten as soon as you get it. I wouldn’t recommend reheating it, but that’s really with any oyster mushroom sandwich in my opinion.
Their milkshakes are good and their lemonade & sweet teas are bomb!
I haven’t sat down to eat there, and it’s a small space with just a bar too counter, but it’s great to bring back home for the family
Oh my gosh, how did I forget about their fries?! Those were devoured before I could even make it home yesterday. They definitely give Five Guys a run for their money. They’re cooked perfectly!
When I don’t want bread and want some veggies, I get the chicken x coleslaw meal which is good and is exactly what it says lol. They do have fresh jalapeños inside the coleslaw so it is spicy.
For someone who has tried just about everything on the menu, I highly recommend them for your occasional eat out night!

THE BEST BURGER I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. Me and my friend went to Six Flags, and we got hu gry after a few rides, so we decided to go here. We arrive and order food with no difficulty. The staff is friendly. We waited 10-15 minutes for the food. When we sat down to eat it, it was so deliciously. My friend immediately said it was the best burger he had ever tasted only after 1 bite. I couldn't agree more. The wings were good as well. Well done to Roaming Rooster.

Went to roaming roosters for the first time. A coworker of mine swore they have the best chicken sandwiches and honestly, he's not wrong!
This location is very small, has a couple tables to sit. It was very clean as well. No complaints on service; cashier was friendly and I got my food quick!
I ordered the Honey Butter crispy chicken sandwich (Extra hot) with fries and a drink. This is the BEST SEASONED chicken sandwich I've ever had - it was salty, sweet, buttery and spicy! If you have a high tolerance to spicy foods - I 100% recommends the extra hot, it was just the kick I've been looking for! The sandwich came with about 3 pieces of chicken, they did not skimp! Worth every penny! Very delicious!
The reason I'm giving Roaming Roosters 4 stars is because their fries were definitely not worth the extra charge. It's already pricey as it is but only thing worth the price was the sandwich!
Get the sandwich - don't get fries or drink- not worth it!

Came for lunch today. There’s plenty of parking. The food was piping hot and fresh! We got the honey butter and club sandwich. Don’t order too many fries! They are shareable. The service was great. Very personable staff working the register. Would recommend.

The sandwich was amazing. Was in NE for a community event and finished around lunch time so wanted to stop here. Parking spaces available. We walked in with no line. I ordered the honey butter chicken sandwich medium, fries, and oreo shake. Another order was the wings and fries. Food took maybe 15 minutes. We found out one order of fries could've feed two of us. I would be open to trying the Buffalo and club. I think it's well worth the visit.

We've been here several times now, and it's always good. This is also the first time I was able to take any pictures before we ate the sandwiches 😁 We like the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and the honey butter fried chicken sandwich.

Roaming Rooster is a local gem. This location has tasty chicken sandwiches and tenders. It’s Made to Order and is a great option for a break from chain restaurant’s chicken. It’s only a matter of time before they become a chain as well. Best of luck to this location. I highly recommend it. I hope they have the hot pepper sauce in stock because they don’t always have it (It’s the key to a perfect chicken sandwich for me). Try it for yourself and you be the judge.
Note: This is an old review. I will be updating. Review updated when I added new pics.

Came here cause we thought that it might be good. Visiting from Denver. So good! Just know when they say hot, it's HOT. Fried are awesome and 2 order is easily sharable. Great food. Worth the stop.

OG Nashville Chicken sandwich is delicious! I got medium heat and it was perfect. Hubbs got hot and loved it too. Get size on portions. Wish the fries were crispy, kinda soggy. The location stinks since it's so so far from a Metro stop.

The establishment is clean and organized!
We ordered the Honey Butter Fried Chicken Sandwich & Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich!
Both were delicious and the fries were great also!
Highly recommend eating here!
