    Pros: (1) Food flavor is fairly good (2) Fast food service (3) Provides convenient dining + group activities (4) The French Fries are perfect Cons: (1) Parking is absolutely atrocious - went on a Tuesday night, and everything nearby is full (2) Way too expensive for what you get - I understand that the people pay for what they have it set at, but seriously rather than pay $40/hour for 1 court to have people stare at you while playing, just go to a public Kansas City park with a Pickleball court and play for free (3) The $2 Tuesday tacos are absolutely atrocious - I wouldn’t eat another carne asada taco even if you paid me $2. The meat was dry, chewy, and flavorless. And the tortilla was very… oddly textured and flavored. Not to mention the fact that it was cold and smaller than any other taco I’ve ever eaten. (4) They’re a bit stingy with the meat in their barbeque bowl - the quantity of meat is about 80% of what you’d expect for this kind of bowl

    CnP is a fun restaurant with plenty of games and distractions. Their staff is very friendly and attentive. Their chicken is juicy and tasty, but it is a little on the mild for spice. The deviled eggs were little underwhelming. The highlight of our meal was the brussel sprouts. We're going to come back and try it again. I was interested in the burnt ends sandwich but I'm skeptical any place that doesn't have any other barbecued beef.

    I love the concept 👏👏👏 many games to play and spend the day eat and drink and watch sports games. Big variety of beers and drinks in general Brunch in the weekend, but I didn't like the items included and I think it's not worth the price 25$

    My aunt ordered a puple haze and was not satisfied with it, after the staff helped me bring it to the manger Brittany's attention. She personally got a replacement drink and followed up at different times during our visit to make sure our experience and food was good. Our server Jonah was also very attentive, personal and efficient with her service. I enjoyed myself as well as the other people in my party.

    For better or worse, it seems we had the same idea as every other person in Kansas City. We chose to stop by on a warm fall afternoon, and it was alarmingly busy for mid afternoon. For someone who hasn’t been here before, if you sit outside, there is a drink server outside, but you have to order your food inside, but they bring your food outside. If they are busy, be prepared to wait a little while. The clientele seems fairly young like mostly millennials, and the atmosphere is pretty loud, and I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, I’m just saying so you’re prepared if you go. It’s not gonna be a place for quiet conversations. Prices for the area were standard. Beer selection was average. Food reports from the family were fair, but personally I thought the pickled chicken sandwich was pretty badass. Only one court was playing, and they were pretty terrible it seems. From what I gather it’s like giant table tennis. I do like the fact they allow dogs. A decent experience, I’d probably go back, especially for the sandwich.

    Fun place to go sit outside and play some games while waiting for your food. Good size portions for kids meals. Have to pay for pickleball, but connect four, ping pong and corn hole is free. Kids loved it!

    First time eater, never pickleballer. The atmosphere was amazing, sat outside, and had a beautiful lunch with my partner. Food was served very timely and loved the avacado hummus. I'm not saying it's bad, but kinda odd to run the card, get seated, and then wait for the check at the end of the meal. We just about walked out because we thought we paid already, just an fyi for newbies. Would easily go back... were healthy eaters, and the light meals were great, just not many of them, but I got it.

    I work with a non profit and we just had our second annual pickleball tournament at this location. Not only did Chicken N Pickle donate the courts for the tournament but they also had an employee, Brett, run the games and scoring. When I tell you Brett was the glue that held this whole tournament together I am not exaggerating! He was absolutely amazing! Get this man a rise!! We are so thankful to have had him there.

    Great atmosphere! Lots of people brought their dogs. My party was in Beer Garden 1 and while the mist machines were necessary and helpful after our games of pickle ball, they were not necessary while we were eating. The waiter turned them off when we requested it so it was really not a big deal. Someone showed up late to our party after the tab had been closed. We needed to place another order and the waitress never came back to check on us or take the order. I went inside and found another waitress to take the order and we paid that tab separately...but, it was probably 15 or 20 minutes before we noticed the original waitress wasn't coming back after we told her about the late arrival. It seems like the high school and college crew are just starting their summer jobs and maybe things aren't as put together as they could be in that the waitress wasn't sure how to put in another order after the original tab was closed. But, overall it was a good experience and our late arrival was eventually able to order. The food was delicious and the menu was unique. They definitely were not serving the standard fare that you can get at a dozen other chains. Prices were also fair for the quality and the quantity of food that was served. The games were fun and everyone had a great time.

    Such a fun place! We really enjoyed our time here. They have free bingo on Sunday mornings which we can't wait to do. The only thing we didn't enjoy was that there were a lot of kids running around even when we were playing the games outside they kept getting in our way and the parents wouldn't say anything. They have a sign with doggy rules, maybe they should post a sign for kids lol. But besides that, really loved this place!

    First time here at Chicken N Pickle and it was a great atmosphere! A lot of pickleball courts and corn hole boards outside with a large area to hang out in. The inside was nice with a bar; you order your food and can pay right away or keep a tab open. Their smashburger was good and I'm sure their chicken is good as well. They are 100% cashless, so you will need a card to pay. Overall, it was a nice place to hang out for a while.

    Super nice! You can go play as much as you want Jenga, corn hole, ping pong, naval battle and more (except for pickle ball is paid) and then enjoy a lovely meal, drink or desert. We loved for a fun night.

    This was the first time that I came to a Chicken N Pickle. I was pretty impressed with the food and service. I enjoyed my fried-chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. It was certainly a neat atmosphere and the servers were quite friendly. I feel like the prices were fair and the atmosphere was very family friendly. I look forward to my next visit and certainly believe that the location is very great one.

    Great place for the family!!! Fun games, easy ordering system, clean and great vibes. If you want to play pickleball, I recommend calling ahead to book a court, especially on the weekends since it gets busy.

    I recently visited Chicken N Pickle with my family, and overall, it was a great kid-friendly place that combines a restaurant and sports bar atmosphere. The highlight of the venue is its pickleball courts, which offer a fun activity for all ages. Additionally, they have a variety of yard games to keep everyone entertained. The spacious layout allows you to relax and enjoy your time with your favorite people. The service at Chicken N Pickle was excellent, with a kind and attentive staff who made us feel welcome. However, when it came to the food, I had mixed feelings. We ordered the wings and half rotisserie chicken, and while they weren't bad, I found them lacking in flavor. In my opinion, the taste fell short of expectations and was somewhat subpar. Despite the food not being as flavorful as I had hoped, Chicken N Pickle is still a fantastic place for families and sports enthusiasts. The combination of activities and friendly service make it a worthwhile visit, especially if you're looking for a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

    It was definitely a vibe to watch the UFC fights here. My group and I had such a great time and our waiter was super awesome. We were expecting a taco bar during this event but we found out they canceled the taco bar upon our arrival. It was a little disappointing but the food was great. The cheeseburger, chicken sandwich, and wings were a hit! The pork tostada’s were super salty for my pallet but it might not be for you. My waiter was kind enough to take it off my bill and replace it with something else on the menu. Anyways, the spot was beautiful at night but I can’t wait to revisit during the summer when I can enjoy the outdoor scenery. Thanks chicken n pickle for hosting the fights! It was GREAT!

    Packed. It's hard to find seating especially when it's packed because it's open seating. To eat, you'll need to order at the food line. They'll give you a number. You can start a tab there too. I had the chicken chipotle bowl. I really enjoyed it. The chicken was well flavored and moist. Drinks were great as well as service.

    The food at Chicken N Pickle is probably some of the freshest I’ve had since moving to the KC area. The restaurant uses food from family farmers in the community and you can definitely taste the difference. I had the Pickled Chicken sandwich and the serving size was extremely generous for the price. The salads on the menu look amazing as well, and I will definitely be back to try them. The restaurant is surrounded by pickleball courts so you can play, eat, drink, and then play some more. Inside, there are tons of huge big screen TVs so you don’t have to miss anything when your favorite sports team is playing. If you go - and you should - don’t forget to order fried pickles as an appetizer to get your visit started.

    Cool place. The Chicken n Pickle sandwich made me feel healthy-ish since it was grilled, so I had some tots too. If you like grilled chicken and/or pickles and/or pickle ball, this is your place. Oh yeah, and cornhole. Welcome to Missouri.

    Chicken and Pickle is a great restaurant! We love coming here! Sunday Bingo is a blast! There is more than just pickle ball here! Tons of outdoor seating and games! The chicken is so juicy and delicious! Everyone loves the chicken fingers, chicken sandwiches or chicken salads!Great place to bring the family or big group of friends! Great place for a night out with friends or for a date night! We always have great service here! The restaurant is always kept pretty clean! You do want to book your pickle ball game in advance this place stays pretty busy! If you haven't been this place should definitely be on your list! It will soon become a favorite restaurant!

👍👍 Better than Outback Steakhouse. (For real). I’m not even lying bro. Great food, I’ve eaten here plenty of times and I always think “goddamn, this is better than Outback Steakhouse.” — and it is. Definitely better than Outback Steakhouse 👌🏻 If you’re in the KC Metro Area and need some grub, and you...
