This Timeless 1940s Restaurant In South Dakota Sells The Best Fried Chicken In America

Cluckin' Good Chicken & BBQ in Sioux Falls offers nostalgic fried chicken and BBQ with original 1944 recipes.

When it comes to comfort food, there is nothing quite as nostalgic and comforting as a fried chicken dinner. While you can always slave away for hours as your grandma did, we think you deserve a break, which is why we highly recommend visiting this timeless 1940s South Dakota restaurant that sells some of the best fried chicken in America:

Located in Sioux Falls is the downright-delicious Cluckin' Good Chicken & BBQ, which may have taken the place of the iconic Bob's Cafe but still serves the staple's classic recipes.

After Bob's Cafe - which was originally opened in 1944 - was sold, it was rebranded to the current Cluckin' Good Chicken, which also moved to a bigger building with more seating and space.

While the beloved building may be no more, the original circa 1944 recipes remain the same, beginning with the classic fried chicken meals that everyone knows and loves!

Whether you opt for a smaller original basket (which comes complete with two sides and a roll) or a sizeable family-sized meal, you are guaranteed to leave Cluckin' with a full and happy stomach.

As the name implies, there is even more to love at this restaurant than just the chicken, including finger-licking-good BBQ, shrimp, and fresh fish.

They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so you better believe that Cluckin' does that right, too!
