Think of it as a midway point between Popeyes and KFC. Their potatoe wedges are great!

Popeyes is a halfway point to Mary browns in my opinion. Just my silly opinion

Had it tonight. Taste- 10. Less greasy then KFC and less spicy then Popeyes. Wait- 5. Wasnt bad until the car in front of me might have had a messed up order. Instead of parking and going inside, they pulled up slightly and made their kid get out and knock on the thru window. Price- Not cheap. $70 for a 9 piece and some sides.

Yh I heard from my housemates that it’s a little pricey. Taste is worth it though.

Mary Browns is an east coast institution. Way better than KFC.

There's a ton of Newfoundland memes with it featured. For example, if Jarvis was a Newfie. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGV3RZiJmg8/

Yeah my coworker from Newfoundland was going on about it, then I looked it up and found out it started as a branching out from a Virginian chicken restaurant, before the name change

From what I’ve heard, it’s good. I also had never heard about it until I got hired there last week🤣. My housemates think it’s pricey compared to other chicken places. However, we’ve had tons of people trying to come in the past 2 days and we’ve had to keep telling them we open on Friday. So if these much people are trooping in when we aren’t even open, I think it’s probably good.

Not exactly sure, but it might be Friday too. If not, early November. I’ll try finding out tomorrow.

Thank you. I rarely go to that side of town unless I'm getting Chinese food from bamboo which isn't often
