Stellar fried Chick’N!

Absolutely amazing ⓥ fried chicken. Get a bucket or two as you will definitely be craving more and it is actually awesome cold the next day too.

The Bacon Creamed Corn side is phenomenal.

Pros: Great ⓥ comfort food

HFC

HFC is a dream come true for junk food vegans. They keep adding to the menu and I love the new additions. The vegan chicken is good, but I love the crispy "skin," aka crunchies, even better. They even added an option to order extra crunchies, which is exactly what I wanted!

There is a Smash'd Bowl, with fried chicken pieces, mashed potatoes, and bacon creamed corn. I ordered it with extra crunchies. It's like a warm blanket for your soul. I could eat this every day with just the crunchies, bacon creamed corn, mashed potatoes & gravy, all three of which are absolutely delicious and seasoned by the angels.

The Fried Chicken Sandwich is also amazing, along with those perfectly seasoned tots.

Biscuit - the first time I got hard biscuits. But the subsequent times they were very good, made even better with their maple butter.

Shakes I tried and loved - vanilla bean, strawberry shortcake, pumpkin, chocolate malt. All so thick and delicious! I suggest they invest in stronger, bigger straws to handle the thickness of their shakes.

Exceeded expectations

I bought the medium bucket and a chicken sandwich. I could hardly contain myself from eating it all at once. 😅 Add this place to your bucket list of must try and “I knew them when’s”. 😃 #Veganuary

Pros: Quality, Tastiness factor, In my belly!

Cons: Huh? 🤔

Worth the Visit

Have a hankering for a bucket full of goodness, stop on by. Sandwiches and malts hit the spot, too.

Keep it in the family

I visited the Herbivores Butcher and had one of the best hot panini sandwiches I had ever had. There was no way I was passing up visiting their sister location for some Vegan Fried Chickun. With so many options, it was difficult to make a choice, but I decided on the bowl. Chikun, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, and I added on a biscuit. It was a very nice portion size and very tasty. Looking forward to coming back.

Pros: Many options, Delicious biscuit, Crispy Vegan Chickun

a dream

just wow. amazing food. longggg wait, but for a reason. worth it. cream corn was wow! so good and flavorful. favorite side dish for sure. biscuits were really good, dry but thats a given. mashed potatoes were also delicious, the gravy!! oh my gosh. chicken, soo good but very similar to the animal version it’s scary haha my only comment is i wish their pieces were smaller to give a better batter to chicken ratio. my carniv friend loved her food but agreed on there being such huge chicken pieces. im gonna ask for the small pieces next time. overall, a GEM of a restaurant!!!! i wish they had indoor/outdoor seating

Pros: kind workers, long wait, reasonable prices

Cons: they run out of biscuits near close so go earlier

WOW

I was so excited this landed on my radar when I went to minneapolis a few days ago. WOW is the word. Just WOW. Destroys KFC. Why eat animal flesh when you can get a bucket of the tastiest plant based chicken in the world. And the biscuits, and mashed potatoes and gravy WOW. The only problem is this place is in minneapolis and not LA and I’ve been craving it ever since. WOW.

Pros: All vegan baby.

A must

Super delicious, the chicken tastes just like KFC if that’s your thing. Easy to pick up and bring home. My only complaint is everything is exceptionally salty, even the mashed potatoes, so much salt.

Pros: Great price point , Delicious

Cons: Very salty

So fun. Salty and FILLING. We thought 6 pieces wouldn’t be enough for three of us - but it was. We had enough for lunch and dinner!

Pros: Vegan

10/5!!!

So amazingly delicious. We drove up to Minneapolis from Milwaukee to visit some friends but, I’d drive back just to eat here! The chicken was so crispy on the outside and so tender on the inside. We will most definitely be back!

BEST CHICKEN EVER

I used to love KFC and Herbie's chicken is seasoned so similarly, super moist inside and crispy crunchy outside. The biscuits are fluffy and dense at the same time and buttery. Lots of sauce options. Yummy creamy cole slaw. I think in a few months when they're not brand new the wait time to order will hopefully get better. 5 stars if it was more affordable.

First timer, we'll be back!

Ordered chick'n, biscuits, tots, Mac N Cheeze, coleslaw, bbq/ranch/sweet N sour/butchers sauces.
Chick'n-- thick, crunchy batter, not quite as seasoned as I'd like; not greasy; seitan with good mouth-feel, slight chew/soft.
Biscuits-- nailed it, rich flavor, well layered, crunchy outside/soft inside; maple butter nice addition, but biscuits stand on their own.
Tots-- wicked crunch, well seasoned
Mac N Cheeze - - reasonably mimicking cheddar cheese, a little starchy vs creamy, slightly overcooked/soft noodles
Coleslaw-- fresh crunch; salty, strong garlic creamy dressing (if you don't like garlic, don't do it)
BBQ sauce-- strong, typical smokey sweet, tangy (a bit overpowering)
Ranch-- strong (love it) Dill, creamy
Sweet N sour-- apricot(?), ginger; more sweet than sour
Butcher sauce-- creamy wasabi(?)

Pros: Fun eating that we vegans don't often get, All eating-types will enjoy

Cons: Don't go for the health food! , Seasoning of chick'n not sufficient w/out sauces

Unlike any other!

Vegan fried chicken!!! That’s enough but also they have the best mac and cheese and have so many sauce options to make it different each time. Soooo good!

Pros: great food, friendly staff

Fan-damn-tastic!

Love having this place close. The chick'n is amazing. The biscuits are amazing. The sauces are amazing.

The cole slaw was not to my taste, but adding their honey mustard sauce to it made it better.

Pros: Chick'n and biscuits, Great value, Friendly staff

More please!

I’m not into faux meat (creeps me out/too real) so I could take or leave the chicken, but the animal eaters with me gave it two-thumbs up. I absolutely love the coleslaw, mac-n-cheese, biscuits, and malts. All were DELICIOUS! I was surprised at the price - LESS than I’m used to paying in this area. I fed 4 people for the price of two meals at other So Minneapolis (only partially vegan) restaurants. This will be my go-to place when I’m feeding a group (especially when the group contains animal eaters.) They are very new so very busy, order ahead! They were also having issues with running out of items (again, they are very new and there’s high demand).

Pros: All vegan!, Affordable, All the sides!

Cons: Still new, so working out the kinks. Be patient.

Good, but could be better

We got a large bucket—6 pc chicken, 2 large sides (chose coleslaw and macaroni,) biscuits and some tater tots at the bottom. Honey mustard dipping sauce and “butcher sauce” were both good. Unfortunately, there was some raw batter or dough in some chicken pieces and the biscuits were undercooked and gummy inside. Sides were really good. I think that in a month or two when the opening rush dies down and they have a chance to get into a good groove this will be a fun option to have in the neighborhood.

Pros: All vegan menu, Good sides

Phenomenal and decadent

The texture and breading of the chicken are out of this world, great ranch sauce, and awesome shakes!
