Why Connie’s Fried Chicken Is Different
Hand-Breaded
Every piece is breaded by hand. We don’t buy pre-breaded chicken or ship frozen tenders. The Connie’s difference starts in the kitchen.
Fresh to Order
Your chicken doesn’t sit under heat lamps. Every order is cooked the moment you place it. That’s why our chicken stays crispy.
Family-Owned Since 2016
Founded by brothers Khari and Shawn Parker, named after their mother Connie. Read our story →
