West 72nd Street Fried Chicken From a James Beard Nominee
Take crispy pan-fried chicken and cornbread to go, or add fried fish, pulled pork, and turkey wings.
🍗 The Crisp Crust
Chef Charles Gabriel brings soul food to a deep, narrow carryout cafe at 146 West 72nd Street in Manhattan. At Charles Pan Fried Chicken, the James Beard nominated chef turns out an exceptionally crispy exterior around juicy meat. Cornbread is among the accompaniments, a familiar partner for the signature order.
There is more to choose from across a menu that also includes fried fish, pulled pork and turkey wings. Counter service sets the format, and the cafe has no indoor seating. Keep a place to eat in mind before picking up your meal, particularly when you are meeting friends for a bite. This is a busy setting built around taking food away.
Doors open daily at 11 AM and close at 10 PM Sunday through Thursday, with Friday and Saturday service continuing until 11 PM. Pork ribs are priced at 19.95 dollars.
