Red Rooster

For real blue collar place to eat, this one hits the mark. My wife and I stopped in here for breakfast and we enjoyed a delicious meal eggs sunny side up hash browns she got the bacon crispy as ordered and I got the scrapple crispy is ordered and the piece was huge. Service was good. This building has some outside seating and some covered outside seating but no true indoor seating. It's not at all fancy - so if you want fancy you don't want this. If you want a good value for your money at least breakfast wise this one's a good choice. We did not get a chance to check out their chicken or anything else other than breakfast so I can't speak for that part of the menu. That's the part I can speak for it was very good. Definitely two thumbs up.

We come here every so often, usually when coming back from Deep Creek or Western Maryland excursions. Big fried chicken fans we've found the food good. Every once in a while it's off their game but usually spot on. Never had anything else but fried chicken so can't speak to the rest of the menu. Sides like coleslaw and macaroni salad are decent but probably come from one of those bulk cartons. Chicken is usually juicy with crispy skin. The attached picture has a red tint because we were under the red awning. Speaking of which, there are a few picnic tables around the outside. Two or three close up and several under cover few steps away. Try not to sit too close to the trash area because on a hot day it gets ripe. Many folks eat in their car or just get pure take away.

What a disappointment. Just moved to the neighborhood and hoped this could become our new chicken place. Nope! Over cooked dry chicken with little flavor. Won’t make that mistake again. I’ll drive to KFC in Mt. Airy before I’ll eat here. And I’m within walking distance.

We hadn't been here in 3 years and couldn't wait to go back. What a disappointment. Chicken was dry and overcooked. The seasoning wasn't the same. fries were super greasy. I have to think its being run by different people now. It used to be the best fried chicken in the area. The prices went up as well.
