Review of Mary Brown's Chicken and Taters

Mary Brown's is a new chicken chain.  It seems to be highly regarded by somebody or other according to the advertising that they are putting out. 

I tried it out.  The store, at least in my location, is basically just a storefront, with a kitchen in the back, and a little bit of space for a few tables out front.  The chain is definitely not going for ambiance.

I ordered a chicken dinner, and got two of the driest pieces of chicken it has ever been my misfortune to eat.  The dinner comes with either french fries or potato wedges, coleslaw, and a canned drink.

The chicken coating is not particularly flavorful.  As a matter of fact, it has hardly any flavour at all.  If KFC's eleven herbs and spices are too spicy for you, you might have an option here (but then Church's already has that covered).  They also have a chicken sandwich which they are heavily pushing and advertising.  It's a chicken sandwich.  It has a coated piece of chicken, a bun, some mayonnaise, and some shreds of lettuce.  That's it.  It's nothing special.

They also do poutine, which is served not so terrifically warm.  They are also pushing Nashville chicken sandwiches and taters, which gives you a honey barbecue sauce on top of the material already mentioned.
