Burger Fi Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Burger Fi may be new but it’s built a reputation for using only the freshest ingredients. The grilled chicken sandwich comes with tomatoes, pickles, lettuce and honey mustard BBQ sauce.

Bojangles’ Cajun Filet
Bojangles’ has some fancy chicken sandwiches on their menu, but we definitely recommend the Cajun Filet sandwich which has the usual tasty Bojangles chicken, some mayo, tomato and lettuce. The bun may be too big for the chicken but it’s really not an issue if you consider just how good the fried chicken is.
Arby’s Buttermilk Crispy Chicken Sandwich
In 2016, Arby’s “buttermilk” fried crispy chicken sandwich became a trend, with its meaty filet of fried chicken marinated with buttermilk, topped with tomato, shredded lettuce and mayo, wrapped in Arby’s “Star Cut” bun. It’s good but not great.
McDonald’s Classic Chicken Sandwich
McDonald’s Classic Chicken Sandwich doesn’t have any bells and whistles but what you get is a huge slab of fried chicken with pickle slices and its recently added “Signature Sauce.” It’s like a spicy version of the “Mac Sauce.” Our issue with this sandwich is the chicken is not crispy – it’s squishy. It’s a filling meal though and the taste isn’t bad at all.
PDQ Crispy Chicken Sandwich
People Dedicated to Quality (PDQ) definitely lives up to its name. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich is comprised of its well-loved crunchy fried chicken with tomato, lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo. They serve you a flavorful chicken with a hint of heat and just the right amount of crunch. They also have a chicken sandwich with potato chips and pimento cheese and that one’s a real winner.
Raising Cane’s Chicken Sandwich
Raising Cane’s is a chicken finger joint be better known for their “signature sauces” namely Cane’s Sauce which is the signature sauce, fresh honey mustard and hot sauce. They make their sauces in their restaurant every single day. The chicken sandwich is not to be missed. You basically get 3 chicken fingers with lettuce in a bun. Fill it with as much sauce as you can get and you will be speechless the moment you bite into the sandwich.

Popeyes Chicken Sandwich
The Popeyes Chicken Sandwich is a must-try for anyone who appreciates a good sandwich, or a good chicken meal, for that matter. The chicken is crazy crunchy and flavorful, and this makes sense since the chicken breast is double battered. They also put mayo on the brioche bun, making for a tasty and satisfying meal.
Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
Chick-fil-A is known for making delicious sandwich. The chicken is fried to perfection as they use a pressure cooker instead of a fryer. It’s really a simple sandwich, it’s just chicken, bun and pickle. But you have to try it to understand why we love this sandwich.

The Chick’n Shack is a prime example of the level of good food you can find from this restaurant chain. It’s a big mass of fried chicken breast in a rather small potato bun. The chicken is crunchy and you can taste the peppery breading with each bite of the juicy meat. They also put some pickles, lettuce and Shake Shack’s herbed mayo. It’s simple but absolutely delicious and satisfying. We know once you’ve tried it you’ll keep coming back for more.
