Join us as we give San Francisco THE BIRD. You've arrived at San Francisco's ultimate fried chicken sandwich shop. We're the go-to for indulgent food that's made with integrity and sold for just 8 bucks. If this sounds counter intuitive, it should. We've set out to prove that a really satisfying breakfast, lunch or dinner doesn't have to eat up the paycheck. #CluckYeah So, what makes our signature fried chicken sandwich special? *Our chicken is always free-range *We use a berbere spice blend to give the chicken that little something special *Our fried chicken is served on a fresh bun that's baked each morning by a local baker *The sandwich is loaded with our own crunchy apple slaw (made fresh in house daily) Find us in San Francisco's Hayes Valley neighborhood at 406 Hayes St.
