About the Business

Specialties

We Specialize in One Thing: Fried Chicken

History

Established in 1984.

Walk into a Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken, and yoll find walls adorned with vintage and neon signs, beloved classics humming in the jukebox, tables covered in blue and red checkerboard, and plates full of some of the very best fried chicken yove ever tasted. Our chicken, prepared using a recipe developed over sixty years ago by the Bonner family, offers the confounding combination of perfectly crispy skin and wonderfully juicy and tender meat. Additionally, our spices offer a kick without ever overwhelming your senses. All plates are served with beans and coleslaw, but feel free to substitute those with any of our sides, all of which are prepared in house daily. And what meal isn't complete without an ice-cold beer or a slice of delicious, homemade pie? At Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken our goal is to offer you a meal that yoll want to come back for over and over again.
