Chicken & Pickle

I’ve been here 3 times and had a great experience each time. It’s not set up like your typical restaurant, don’t expect to be waited on hand and foot. It is a laid back, family friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be back for more Spicy Blackberry Margaritas!

Miles was a fantastic server! We really enjoyed our corporate event and he took really great care of us.

Nicki and Molly made sure to make our experience so enjoyable. They were personable and attentive to our needs before we even knew we needed something. I will definitely be coming back!

The chicken is seasoned very well. The atmosphere is great, and I brought my staff here; they really enjoyed the drinks, which are not watered down.

The atmosphere was great. The servers did not seem enthusiastic. That party of the afternoon packed a wow experience, but nothing to complain about.

Alyssa is absolutely hands down THE BEST server that we have ever had here. She made our visit a very special.

We attended the chicken and pickle soft opening and had a wonderful time. The brunch buffet was honestly better than some of the nicer restaurants we’ve been to (sorry Rick’s Chophouse 🤷‍♂️). I got chicken and waffles, a taco, bacon, sausage, French toast, and tropical Agua Fresca. It was all delicious. We then played lawn games and had a wonderful time. There was pickle ball (of course) giant jenga, chess, connect four, giant battle ship, foosball, ping pong and cornhole (my mom beat me at cornhole and part of our bet was I had to include that she is the champ and I stink at cornhole in my review 😔). Service was almost overwhelmingly good (but that isn’t really a complaint) as staff was very attentive and friendly. I will definitely be coming back here again (and reclaiming my spot as cornhole champion 😤)

This is a fun, well organised and very expansive spot for the entire family. They have a restaurant, indoor and outdoor courts, bars throughout, greens with fun games, bingo & buffet on the weekends. Food has American classics and healthy options.

Leah was absolutely amazing! Her service was top-notch from start to finish. She was responsive, and kind! made the entire process so easy and FUN! She truly goes above and beyond!!!! I couldn’t be happier and would 100% recommend Leah to anyone looking for exceptional service.

This is a really great establishment. Came for a Christmas party and honestly really surprised by the service for a large party. Most established couldn’t handle a party of 50 are more but this staff did. I specifically would like to highlight Chihoma. She was great. Very professional and inviting. She was awesome!

Went there with friends and family. Love their indoor courts. Plenty of parking but we didn’t know where the entrance was at. There were 2 entrances and we missed both of them. Maybe the way the building is situated. There were plenty of spaces to hang out even if you are not playing pickle ball. Other yard games available. There are also lots of seating spaces for food inside or outside. There is a bar as well inside. They also do birthday parties and saw thy were setting up for it. Staffs will come to take orders when you raise flag if you are playing indoor. They also provide water stations as well. Overall was a good experience for our group. They do have a great chicken and waffles. Highly recommend that as a meal.

Great first visit to Chicken N Pickle (Allen, TX) location. Ample parking and a great first impression when walking in. The outside pickle ball courts were clean, lively music and seemed pretty spacious. We were indoors. The courts were clean, the servers were very nice and continued to check on us while we were there (1.5 hours). The menu selection included handheld bites along with larger entrees. Beer and regular beverages were also available for purchase. If you're looking for a fun, casual time with family or friends, I'd recommend.

My family and I have visited other locations in the DFW area. We are so glad there is one closer to home. Food was great, service was fantastic and the only “complaint was the small tables. With a family of 4 getting all the food and drinks comfortably on the tables was challenging on the outside area. Otherwise, highly recommend and will be back.

Fun, Food, and Great Connections at Chicken N Pickle! Chicken N Pickle in Allen is an absolute blast and a wonderfully versatile spot for any occasion. The venue is packed with plenty of games, both indoors and outdoors, guaranteeing a good time for everyone. It's very kid-friendly, which by extension, makes it a perfect destination for a family outing. Beyond the games, the food and drink selection is top-notch. They offer a great variety of drinks and a well-rounded menu with plenty of tasty options to choose from. I recently attended a networking event here, and it was the perfect setting. The lively yet relaxed atmosphere makes it easy to connect with people. If you're looking for a place to host a networking event or just meet new people, I would absolutely recommend Chicken N Pickle. It's a definite green light!

Day after Christmas. All.courts booked! Nice facility, well laid out. Music level great. Clean.

Great place to hang out with friends. Food is delicious. Fried pickles have a kick to them but so good! The tostadas de Tinga have great taste. Our waiter Drew was amazing and taught us how to play pickleball. They have Jenga, Connect Four, Battleship, Fooball, and many other games to play.

Super spacious. Decent food. Lots of things for kids to run around and play. Very good for family visits and large group get together as

My wife and I were just on a road trip and saw Chicken N Pickle so we had to stop. She plays 3 or more times per week and on occasion I will play. At first, we didn't think they were open but turns out they were, so we ate lunch. We were greeted with a smile and had a great meal. Chad, who was the manager, came by and visited with us. We shared fish and chips, and they were fresh, hot, and had a good flavor. Chad came back by when we were finished eating and we questioned him about the business. He took time to show us around and was going to even let us play a game on him but I were not dressed to play. We will definitely be going back when we are close. If you just want to eat, no reservation is needed. You will need to make a reservation if you plan on playing pickleball.

The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. An excellent first impression. Avery was so kind and patient with us. We enjoyed talking with him while we waited for our court and afterwards when we were having a drink. It's a far drive from our house but the welcoming factor will bring us back!

We love C&P! We used to frequent the Kansas City location so when locations started opening up in our new area we got super excited. Great food and drinks! They have NA drinks too which is a huge plus for a non drinker myself. Always good vibes!

Great Food, Even Better People! Most places with this much 'hype' fall short on service, but not Chicken N Pickle. From the second we walked in, the energy was on point! Our server was a total pro—attentive without being hovering—and the manager Chad actually took the time to check in and make sure our experience was perfect. It’s rare to find a 'fun' spot that actually takes their hospitality and food quality seriously. The chicken was crispy, the drinks were cold, and the service was world-class. We will be back! Thanks again!!

Wonderful staff, we didn't realize we were supposed to make a reservation, but we were able to get a spot to play fairly quickly. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Avery was very informative. We will definitely be back with a reservation. Hopefully they will open a branch closer to Garland in the future, but this is worth the drive. And I look forward to our next visit

We booked an indoor pickleball court to try something new. It was a great time for the adults and the kids. I liked that the courts are private enough to enjoy your food while watching your group play. Good food and great service. Aaliyah was the sweetest and most attentive server! She made this experience a 10 out of 10.

Went on a Sunday evening. Food and drinks were good. Our party had a mix of chicken, salads, fries, et cetera. Nice atmosphere to play pickleball and enjoy friends. I highly recommend it.

Fun place inside & out. If your not into pickleball no worries, there are other fun things to do. They are food is not your average bar food. You can order anything from humma to chicken & waffles & burgers. They even have do Brunch! Definitely need to check it out.

Server needed some training but the food came up dash and fresh. Enjoyed the layback atmosphere. Prob could use some shaded screen on the west court.

We went to Chicken N Pickle as a group of six to celebrate a friend’s birthday. We had a great time playing pickleball on the indoor court — such a fun atmosphere for a group outing. The food was decent, and while the service team was friendly, there were some delays due to light staffing. Overall, it was a good experience and a fun place to celebrate.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ Fun, Energetic Spot With Great Food & a Few Service Delays Chicken N Pickle in Allen is one of the most fun and unique places to spend an afternoon or evening. The atmosphere is always upbeat, the staff is friendly, and there’s truly something for everyone — from competitive pickleball players to families just looking to hang out and relax. The food is surprisingly fantastic for a sports-style venue. The rotisserie chicken is juicy and flavorful, the sandwiches are great, and the shareable appetizers are perfect for a group. It’s a place where you can grab a great meal and actually feel good about the quality. The courts are clean and well-kept, and playing here is always a blast. The only downside is that the court service can be very slow at times, especially during busy hours. It’s not a deal-breaker by any means, but it’s worth planning for if you’re trying to stay on schedule. Overall, Chicken N Pickle is a terrific spot — energetic, family-friendly, and consistently fun. A great place to play, eat, and enjoy the day. Recommend ! 🏓🍗 ⸻

This was my initial visit to CnP. The service provided was excellent, and while the food was satisfactory, my primary objective was not to evaluate the culinary experience, nor did I anticipate a five-star meal. My visit was centered around a birthday celebration and engaging in pickleball. The bar was notably well-provisioned.

We sat at the bar and our bartender was Mal. She was friendly at first and gave good food recommendations, but unfortunately our order experience was disappointing. I repeated our order twice — she even wrote it down and repeated it to herself — and I told my fiancé that something was probably going to come out wrong. Sure enough, his Bacon Bird (which he ordered with bacon on the side because he doesn’t eat pork) came out with bacon on the sandwich. My burger was supposed to have sauce on the side, add pickles and onions, and an extra side of onions. It came with pickles on the side, no lettuce, no onions, and the fries were overcooked and unseasoned. When I mentioned the issues to the young man who brought the food, he took the Bacon Bird back and brought the extra items I needed to rebuild my burger. Meanwhile, Mal never came back to check on us — she just peeked around the corner and disappeared. Thankfully, Ruben stepped in, fixed everything, offered us dessert, and even took off one meal. He was professional and handled the situation the way it should’ve been from the start. Mal — not attentive and careless. Ruben — excellent service and the reason this review isn’t 1 star.

Food is mediocre, but expensive. ChicfilA has better chicken, to be honest. The service is garbage. Hot steaming garbage. Staff is not happy to be there. No smiles. No help. They all stand around and look unhappy. When you dare to ask for something, they treat you poorly and hardly know what they're doing. The only thing that saves this place is the pickleball and ability to lounge. I came with a large group. I wouldn't come without a large group, but I wouldn't necessarily suggest it to anyone planning events either...

Pickleball was really fun, there’s also foosball, cornhole, and ping pong at no extra charge. Venue is very nice looking and I would definitely come back for just pickleball. However, service was just terrible. They messed up a salad three times in a row, taking 10 minutes in between each attempt. Fries aren’t any better than what you can get at Walmart, and chicken is a little dry but still not terrible. Come here if you really like the pickleball and if your order is less than 5 words.

The first time I visited I had a good experience. Two young ladies greeted us and took our order promptly. The food was served fresh and hot, my margarita was made perfectly and was very tasty. The servers and other staff members checked on us periodically and we enjoyed ourselves. However, my second experience there was Not up to par. I brought my mother and others so they could check out the establishment and have the same experience I had initially. Unfortunately, this visit we received poor service, barely warm food, it took over 30 minutes before we were greeted and had our orders taken. Our server was young and had not been trained properly. Once things got confusing for them they went inside the establishment and we didn't see them again for the remaining time we were there. No one checked on us for 20+ minutes during our time there. We received the wrong drinks and when we asked for the correct drinks (frozen margaritas) they came out messy and sloppy, looking nothing like they usually look! One of the managers came over and seemed irritated that we refused drinking the poorly prepared melting drinks. It frustrated my mother and son so much they vowed to never return. :( It sucks because I really wanted them to enjoy themselves like I had during my first visit so we could make visiting the restaurant a regular occurrence. (Pics are from my 1st visit there not the 2nd)!

WATCH OUT WHEN YOU PAY! The male server with long blond hair and glasses never told us that gratuity had already been added to our bill, even though we were only a two-person table. Before showing us the receipt, he asked if we wanted to leave a tip. We told him to add 20%, and he immediately closed out the check. When we finally saw the receipt, we realized there was already a 20% automatic gratuity included, and then another 20% tip was added on top of the new total, which is how it ended up being nearly a 50% tip overall. We found this extremely shady, but since he had already closed out our tab, we didn’t want to deal with the hassle of calling over a manager. On top of that, the service was very slow and the food was not good.

Very unclean. The food was good, but the silverware and utensils were dirty. Some plates had giant pieces of food residue on them, and a lot of them were not dried off properly. I spent a lot of the time searching for the cleanest plate and having to wipe it dry.

My overall experience here was absolutely HORRIBLE! I have been to a CNP in Kansas so I was super excited to try this one especially since it was near my house. Upon arriving I had to locate a server just to see what was available seating, once I was I explained to the server that we were ready to order since we looked at the menu before coming. He informed me that he needed a card on file and so I had to go back home to get a card because I assumed since they were cashless they had the tap feature like every restaurant has in 2025..so I was wrong there. Once I had my card we waited even longer for someone to come and I had to flag a server down, she took our order, food arrived, then I had to find someone else to order dessert. NO one ever came to refill our drinks or anything the entire time. Two of the 4 desserts were not available. I settled and got my kids the $3 ice cream. The server proceeds to bring out the three bowls of ice cream with his hands IN THE BOWL and the scooper still in his hand (SOOOOOO UNSANITARY)..he sits the bowls down and it looks like little scoops of butter. I flagged him back down and sir please take this because I am not paying $3 for these. No one ever checked on us and to continously have to flag down someone was even more frustrating. I tell the server to go bring me my check and I get a notification that he charged my card, so when he came back I stated "I didnt ask you to charge my card, I clearly stated to bring me my check"...the entire experience was horrible and we will not be going back.

Service was awful,, starting with the bartender saying “I don’t know you, we have to send someone to see who’s at your table before we can serve you alcohol “ then the young lady who finally came to take our order was so young she couldn’t tell us anything about what wine options they had. I did finish my food and was on the court playing pickle ball and my food was taken without even asking if I wanted a box to bring it home. The restaurant and courts themselves are nice. But the service was very strange and off putting. Will not be back.

At the restaurant today at 2pm with a group, ordered my meal a lunch special and for some reason that I don't know it took four time to get it right. Ask to speak with management but that didn't work. My server number: 9005 did final bring my food but I had to get it to go.I was at the restaurant from 2:00-4:00pm. Thanks so much for the service you gave.

I was able to attend the grand openning and had a fantastic experience. I’ve gone a few times after that and every time, I’ve had good service. This last time, we had a horrible server. I don’t remember her name but it was a young african american girl with blonde hair and pink at the end of it. She was not friendly from the time we got there to check in to where we were trying to order food and drinks while playing. My entire party agreed and complained to me about her unfriendliness. Her lack of drink knowledge and just overall rudeness gave us a poor guest experience that I’ve never encountered when visiting. I hope that improves. Thank you.

Went here to see how the food was for a potential event. We sent half the food back. Should have sent it all back. Very bad. One of our party did not eat. The street corn was disgusting. The corn was hard. My meal came out cold. They replaced it. I should have just walked out. Felt sick later on. Extremely disappointed.

Chicken was pretty okay at best. Didn't have a waiter come and check on us the entire visit. Had to order everything from a counter, but when it came time to pay they "lost" my tab only for the charge to run thru at midnight. Guess I didn't even get to see what I paid or tipped for my "service" during my visit. Very nice facility tho.
