Happy Chicks
Welcome to Happy Chicks, Austin's newest gem for chicken aficionados! Located at 10611 Research Blvd, this vibrant spot is all about delivering quality chicken tenders that truly elevate the fast-food experience. Despite being neighbors with the well-known Chick-fil-A, Happy Chicks proves that there's always room for more flavor and fun in the chicken arena.
The menu is a delightful exploration of chicken tenders, offering options from the Little Chick with two chicken tenders, to the hefty Jumbo Chick featuring five. Each dish is thoughtfully paired with a choice of sides like the White Cheddar Mac & Cheese or French Fries, and comes with their signature Happy Sauce—a highlight that many customers have raved about.
What’s particularly striking is the quality of the food. Patrons like Laurence Williams have noted the fresh, made-to-order offerings that come piping hot, making it hard to resist the crispy tenders that rival giants like Popeyes and KFC. The standout factors at Happy Chicks are not just the crispy chicken but the array of sauces that complement them beautifully. Customers appreciate unique flavors like garlic ranch and honey mustard, making each bite a rewarding experience.
For those looking for lighter options, don’t miss the Happy Salad—a refreshing mix of field greens with candied walnuts, dried cranberries, and crumbled blue cheese, served with a homemade balsamic dressing. It’s a perfect counterpoint to the indulgent tenders and rounds out the menu nicely.
Apart from the delicious food, the friendly customer service is frequently highlighted. Kristen Avery noted how her visit was enhanced by an informative staff member who made her feel right at home. Such service, combined with a fair pricing strategy, makes Happy Chicks an unbeatable option for a casual meal.
Of course, there's always room for improvement—issues like drive-through setups can cause a bit of inconvenience, as noted by our customer Olivia Lange. However, these minor hiccups hardly detract from the overall experience of indulging in delicious chickens that Happy Chicks serves.
In conclusion, Happy Chicks stands out as a must-visit spot for anyone craving quality chicken in a vibrant atmosphere, complete with friendly service and a menu that does justice to the love for chicken tenders. Whether you're dining in or grabbing a quick bite via drive-through, prepare for a satisfying experience that might just make it your new favorite chicken joint!

“ This new chicken #joint #HappyChicks is one of the best places I have had in a while.... I'm not really a fan of chicken tenders and I don't eat them quite often. I figured I give this place go because they havem be brave to open up a chicken place on the same block as Chick-fil-A. I got The classic chick 4-Piece tender 2 spicy 2 original a #KrazyChick with two dipping sauces with their signature mac and cheese oh my God. Their tenders are definitely competing with the top competition and chicken establishments such as kanes, Popeyes, KFC, Church's Chicken, Golden chick I'll be going back again it was so delicious and the food was made to order and still hot by the time I made it to the house. I don't usually eat my fries but I ate these all the way to the last one I am definitely recommending this establishment to everybody to go try this out. ”
“ The chicken always tastes great and the variety of sauces is such a plus! Its worth stopping by. ”
“ This place is great! You gotta try it. Their prices are more than fair - I was surprised the listed cost also included a drink. When I arrived, I took a moment to check out the menu. Blaze behind the walk up window was exceptionally friendly and informative. I went for the #2 original with garlic ranch and honey mustard sauce to try. The tenders came out super fresh and steamy, with very tasty crisp breading. The fries are seasoned well, with a slight sweet finishing taste. Even the sauces were a win. Both were fresh, creamy, and ample servings. This place exceeded my high expectations - I will definitely be back! Highly recommended for your chicken tenders and nuggets fix. They only lost a star on atmosphere because of the difficulty in getting in/out of the parking lot. At the time I visited, it was rainy so the outdoor seating area was empty. There is a drive through and pick up window for ahead of time orders, which seem to be the preferred way to enjoy this delicious spot. You can't go wrong if you get their chicken though. ”
“ I sometimes stop by here when doing errands and I have no issues. Customer service is fantastic and food is tasty and fair priced. Only complain is the drive through option is set up a little weird. There’s plenty of room for a line before the order window, but when you get to the order window and pay/receive your order, there is almost no room to pull back out onto the frontage road, so you have to stay in the window spot of the line until the road is clear which just causes backup in the line. Can’t really fix this but something I find mildly annoying, but not enough to not go again. ”
“ My new fav chicken spot! WOW! So glad a friend recommended this to me because the lower rated reviews would have deterred me. This spot is way better than I was hoping for ”
“ Used the drive thru. Took maybe 5 minutes. Good service, amazing food. No clue about all the bad reviews but then again I didnt dine in/ walk up to order. Blasts caines out of the water (except the sauce, but that is unbeatable). 10/10 will come again ”
“ Food and service were both 10/10. They just have a rather unfortunate location. With all the construction and changes happening on 183, it makes them hard to get to. Also, the parking lot is weird. None of this is really within their ability to control, so they get 5 stars from me. ”
“ The best spicy chicken wrap I’ve ever had! I had the chipotle ranch with spicy chicken on a sun dried tomato tortilla. I can only eat half because it’s huge! It’s a must try, yum! ”
