Sure, you know you can get great fried chicken in the South or in Harlem. But what if you're in, say, the Midwest, or California? Not to worry—there's plenty of fried chicken your way, too. Our friends at Yelp have created a list of the best fried chicken in every state, so you'll never have to go without that salty, crunchy goodness.
To come up with the list, Yelp looked at restaurant reviews that mentioned fried chicken, then chose the best spot in each state using "a number of factors including the total volume and ratings of reviews mentioning 'fried chicken.'" So you can rest assured that each spot on this list comes with reviews from real people. And almost every spot on this list is open for either dine-in or carryout options, so you can still enjoy fried chicken in the pandemic. Your dinner plans are solved!
