Reviews for The Chicken Coop in West Des Moines, IA

I ordered door dash everyone else's food was great. But I really really wish door dash had the option for naked wings because.... I'm the weird on in my house I only like dry rub. However I ordered my wings with dry rub "sweet". There was absolutely nothingsweet about my wings. It was literally like eating straight dried ghost peppers. I used to be able to handle hot spicy food likei ised to eat ghost pepper hot sauce when i was early 20s and I kinda figured it's the only options for dry rub so I'll get thesweet should be fine. When I tell you the "sweet" was so damn spicy there was no eating it. I tried eating 2 wings and I was metby instant pain. My roommates ate a couple of them and even they said they were extremely spicy. Idk if the cook just grabbedthe first dry rub nearest them or not but man please add naked to the options!! Everyone else said their food was great. Somight try again but I'm scared of the chicken now Read more

If there was a game on I'm sure the atmosphere would've made sense. Chicken was good. The level of doneness was all over the... place on the wings. Some seemed barely cooked, while some were overdone, even within the same batches of 10. Not sure whetherthey drop 5 at a time, but they were even different colors from eachother. They really need a heat level indicator and somedescriptions of the sauces on the menu The fries were good. We got regular and waffle. They're both seasoned the same, andwhatever the coating is that's on them is delicious. All of the wings come with ranch, so if you want something different, orderit up front. Read more

Haven't been here since they moved to this location but their burgers are amazing. Fresh and tasty. I need to come back and try... the wings as I haven't had them since they were at the old location but they were good there so hoping they're still as good. Read more

Everything pretty much starts at 15 bucks. Treated my bro to lunch. Blinked and after tip, I was 60 bucks lighter. Be prepared... to either get full off apps or spend some money. Food was tasty. Not a bad thing on the menu. This is one of those cases whereyou do get what you pay for. Great, friendly service. Read more

The Chicken Coop has a good menu for a bar but also for take out. We enjoyed the chicken wings and the Santa Fe chicken salad.... We got a combination of the spicy dry rub and kicked bourbon on the wings. The spicy rub was hot! While dry, it did feel moremoist than traditional dry rubs. But again, this flavor is packing some serious heat. The kicked bourbon was a nice balance tothe heat. The Santa Fe chicken salad had a good crisp with nicely season chicken. Read more

I've had their wings before and my wife was wanting to go so I said sure. I was greatly disappointed and will not be returning.... The Buffalo wings had no sauce and were basically dry. The parm garlic wings were basically tossed in a heavy parmesean creamdressing...blah. the nachos...which I was craving was basically 12 tortilla chips with 1 cup of sour cream and 1 cup of nachocheese. Worse nachos I've ever had for $15. About twice the price as bdubs. Read more

???????????? Hot d@mn the food at this family business is amazing! Prices are low compared to the high quality and flavor you... get. I was traveling through Iowa and stopped by to get some local food here. Ridiculously good wings, onion rings and burgers.I was sad knowing that I would be leaving town in the morning and wouldn't be able to eat here the next day. Wow. Highlyrecommend their wings! Don't bother going to a chain restaurant- this is the place for awesome food. 5 Stars ????????????? Read more
