Where to Get Crispy, Crunchy Fried Chicken for Takeout or Delivery Around D.C.
Great options for enjoying the staple at home
View as Map
Fried chicken is one of those dishes that is ideal for takeout, whether customers want to enjoy it at home or bring along to serve at room temperature an outdoor picnic. Many D.C. fried chicken experts are offering their versions of the bird for pickup right now; below are some of the standout takes around town.
This map focuses on takeout and delivery, but a number of D.C. restaurants have resumed dine-in service. The level of service offered is indicated on each map point. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns: for updated information on coronavirus cases in your area, please visit here . Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
