The chicken at Chicken Coupe is honestly some of the best I’ve had — super crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, and packed with flavor. You can tell it’s made fresh. And the waffles? Soft, buttery, with just the right touch of sweetness. When you put them together, it just hits. Like real comfort food that makes you want to come back.
