A fun spot tucked into an unassuming location with fast, friendly service. The sandwiches are unique and so big and flavorful, the tenders are cravable, and the seasoned fries are second to none. Try every sauce - you won’t regret it!

We couldn't wait to try Chicken n Whaaat when we went to Duluth and we were not disappointed. The food was fantastic and employees friendly. Not a lot of seating. The crazy murals inside and out make CnW a unique fun eatery and to make us laugh even more, its connected to a gas station convenience store! WE LOVED IT! Reminds me of The Ruby on Corner Gas. Highly recommend!

9 for this amazing burger! Mama Miaaajuicy, huge, and absolutely delicious! The whole restaurant is clean, is open kitchen and has very friendly stuff. For just 9, this is hands down one of the best deals around. I’ll definitely be recommending this place to all my friends visiting Duluth. If you're in town, don’t miss out!

1st time, got the Classic and a side of fries. So delicious and it didn't feel like eating fast food. Quality ingredients, real chicken, beef tallow for frying, and a very reasonable price. The only thing I felt was missing were sauce options. I would have liked a buttermilk ranch to dip my sandwich in.

Ordered the Bourbon Bar-B-Que sandwich which came with a fried chicken patty, their bourbon barbecue sauce, coleslaw, pickles, on a toasted brioche bun. It costs 5 extra to upgrade any sandwich to come with fries and a drink, They have iced tea (sweet and unsweetened), Pepsi products, homemade lemonade, or a Jarritos Slushy (All drinks are 20oz). My order came out in less than 5 minutes (on opening day). They also have 2 self serve order kiosks. Fries were crispy and the sandwich was juicy, definitely recommend their ranch.

I loveee the chicken sandwich’s, they’re so good. The workers were very nice and fast. We ordered the Nashville hot chicken blueberry Sunday and it was amazing. A worker handed us a 5 gift card after trying it!

This food was delivered. I was really impressed, especially with all the chicken options out there. This place stands above most of them. Super tender meat with the chicken, the sandwich is super legit, great bun, coleslaw was solid, another thing that really surprised me is that usually in a box, the fries will get soggy, nope, these fries are super crispy. Five stars for sure.

This was the first time we ordered food from here and I was pleasantly surprised how great it was. I loved the tenders, these are the only fries my daughter actually likes, and she told me she hates chicken before I ordered and then said it was the best chicken sandwich she ever had. So if you haven't tried this place, we would highly recommend.
