Chicken Now

Much better than the other chicken place that used to be there. The food is cooked fresh and you get plenty for the price, for food court food. The workers are always polite and helpful.

Do not go here! I just found a bone in my 2 year old son’s chicken nugget. I will post a picture if I can. It was very sharp and he could have choked. Instead, it was a nugget I ate, so I found it. Ridiculous!

Chicken Now is now occupying the space that Chic-​fil-​a used to be at the Hamilton Mall in Mays Landing, NJ. I liken it to Chic-fil-a’s trashy cousin from the wrong side of the tracks. Everything that is positive & unique about Chic-​fil-​a is a missing component from it’s more lame-​o low rent embracing counterpart. Swap the pressure cooking for greasy deep fry… exit waffle fries for Ore Ida shoestrings. I would rename it Chicken Not, perhaps the sign simply has a typo. ;) My son wanted chicken nuggets and he got overfried batter with a little chicken cube in the middle. I opted out. The Hamilton Mall is pretty much a 2 level Shore Mall with the addition of The Gap and a Hollister but missing the Shore Mall charm of the lumpy floors and dollar stores.
I’m no mall snob by any means but seriously that Hamilton Mall is going down the tubes and fast. Chicken «Not» is living proof of the downward spiral. Saturating a supposed «name brand» mall with low rent alternatives is going to force the big names to leave and this goes for the other retailers in the mall… just sayin.
