Golden Chick
3.8 (1,004)restaurant
3.8 (1,004)A Texas-born counter known for marinated, hand-battered chicken tenders alongside classic fried and roasted options.
Description
First opened in San Marcos during the late 1960s under the name Golden Fried Chicken, the concept began with a former franchise worker who developed secret marination and batter mixes to refine the standard chicken operation. A 1990s overhaul refreshed the store format and established the Golden Chick moniker, expanding the board to pair meals with salads and sides across what grew into an expansive regional chain.
