Some of the city 's finest fried chicken is served up family-style (meaning, you can eat as much as your stomach will hold) alongside sides like mashed potatoes , corn and salad . [Eater 38 Member]

Guy Drobny

Really good fried chicken , the chicken fried steak is very very good too (but Dove Creek's is even better) the sides and biscuits are top notch. GO TO BABE'S -- friendly service everytime, byob too

Aaron Hood

Both the Fried Chick and Chicken-Fried Steak are great! My wife and I get one of each and split them both! Also: try some REAL Texas honey on your biscuits with REAL butter!! Mmm!

Colin Stark

Oh Babe’s! THE best chicken shack around! The greens are to die for and the chicken makes me weep it is so good!

My wife & 2kids been here for the 2nd time & they have the BEST Chicken and Chicken Steak . But i wasn't happy when i pay my check out, the server charge me for extra $7 for vegetables out of nowhere.

Mark Lorance

The original location so not the same variety of the newer Babes. They only do fried chicken and chicken fried steak , but they do it the best if anyone around. Ask for Lexie to be your server.

If you’re up for a short drive, head down the road to Roanoke, TX to dine at the original Babe’s Chicken Dinner which has some of the best fried chicken in Texas.

Cyndi Bates

Great service, great food! I prefer the CF Steak , but it's all delicious! Make sure you try the sorghum on your biscuits !

Kris Hodge - Umbarger

The chicken here is the best you'll ever eat, but don't get bogged down with the bird. My family goes to eat the sides, you can always take the chicken and biscuits home with you.

Adam Stallman

All you can eat chicken fried chicken or chicken fried steak with sides served family style . There is always a huge wait so give yourself plenty of time.

Chicken Mecca. If you live anywhere in north Fort Worth or the surrounding suburbs, this is a trip you simply have to make. It doesn't get much better.

Laura

Chicken fried steak all the way. Love this place, expect a wait though. They are BYOB so that's always something cool.

Michael Hulme

Some of their other locations (Frisco) are even more desirable, with a greater menu selection. This place is a two trick pony. Chicken or Chicken fried steak . Consistent though... I'll give it that.

Maggie MacG

They give you a crazy amount of fried chicken . Took two sacks of crispy deliciousness home with us tonight.

Michael Gist

Customer since it opened in 1993.With nine locations now popularity has allowed the price to rise way over the value.The price is no longer shown on their website.Very good chicken but over priced.
