LoveBird Almost Famous Chicken - Lakeland (FL)

4 /5 Stephen Mutz: Best hot chicken and a great quick stop in Lakeland! Delicious sandwiches, tenders, and mac & cheese. Four stars instead of five because I don’t think the fries are very consistent, and I think they could ensure more patient/joyful cashiers to greet and take orders. Main sandwich is a five though!

5 /5 Christine Rosa: First time at LoveBird and I AM A FAN! THESE FOLKS KNOW HOW TO FRY SOME CHICKEN. We ordered the Nashville sandwich, skin on fried, peach cobbler, side of cucumber salad and the Cobb salad. All were seasoned and cooked to perfection! You wont regret choosing LoveBird - itll most likely become your new favorite spot. Its mine!

5 /5 Chase Doney: Fantastic fried chicken! Ordered and split the large white meat and dark meat meals that come with two sides. All pieces were very well done, crispy, and simply delicious. This place is far better than Popeye’s, KFC, or Publix fried chicken, however I’d rank below Jolibee (Orlando or Pinellas Park). Their sauces are also excellent. Will knock their fries a tad bit as when they say seasoned fries, they’re drowned in seasoning- have to use a dipping sauce to balance it out. Their Mac and Cheese is also not a their strong suit. All in all, it’s delicious. Pro tip: if you’re in the mood for a beer here, there’s a separate line just for it. The main line on a weekend night stretches out the door. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Sherri-Lynn Bunn: THE BEST CRUNCHY AND FLAVORFUL CHICKEN IN ALL OF FLORIDA. We have traveled al over Florida pretty hard the past 3 years, north to south. My quest for great chicken and heat has finally been achieved. I will detour on my travels just to visit here from now on. Husband got tenders with med heat and I went for the Why?! Cannot say enough good. Teas sooo hot and sooo delicious. Shaqs Big Chicken just got knocked down a few pegs. Sorry, not sorry at all! The sides were all great too! The best out mac n cheese Ive had anywhere. Corn was tasty. Slaw could use a bit more tang but still quite nice. The greens very nice as well. Josh brought us some banana pudding to try and it was probably the best Ive had of that too! These folks should be very proud of their little establishment! If you get a chance to visit them, you just must! Even got a great tshirt!
