Remembering the Chicken Coop in Rhode Island

Nancy takes us to Rhode Island for a restaurant memory from quite a long time ago...

There used to be a wonderful southern fried chicken restaurant (back in the 1950s/1960s) named the Chicken Coop ---- it was located near the junction of Cranston Street/Westminster Street in Providence. Now there is a high school (Central High) where the restaurant used to be.... not even KFC could have matched them for the taste/quality.

Editor's reply: Thanks so much, Nancy, for this piece of Rhode Island nostalgia! Readers, send us your favorite Boston, New England restaurant memories and we'll consider it for publication

  1. That was actually my uncles' place, they had one in Hartford, CT and the Chicken Roost in Bridgeport, CT!
