A delicious adventure awaits on the Sacramento Fried Chicken Trail! Yes, it's a real thing and it's mother-cluckin' awesome. Presented by Visit Sacramento, the trail will take you to some of the most mouthwatering fried chicken in Northern California.
The Sacramento Fried Chicken Trail consists of several restaurants in Sacramento that specialize in fried chicken. The trail is completely free to partake in. By visiting the locations on the trail, you'll also have the opportunity to win special prizes!
This is how it works. Get the trail passport on your mobile phone, visit the restaurants on the trail, and present your passport to a restaurant staff member to check-in. The more places you check-in, the better the prize.
There are currently more than a dozen participating restaurants on the Sacramento Fried Chicken Trail, each one with a different take on fried chicken. Prefer Nashville-style hot chicken? You'll want to start your journey at Nash & Proper, where hot chicken is the name of their game.
Perhaps you feel like a fried chicken sandwich. Well, Bawk! by Urban Roots may be the restaurant stop for you. They serve up a mean chicken sandwich with hot sauce mayo, pickles, and coleslaw - all served on thick-cut slices of bread.
For a place where you can mix-and-match, visit Kiki's Chicken Place. They offer a variety of meals that include chicken tenders, wings, and fried chicken. However, Kiki's Fries (with chicken) is like a flavor bomb in your mouth!
Other restaurants you'll find on the Sacramento Fried Chicken Trail are Skip's Fish and Chicken, Hawks Provisions and Public House, and Cafeteria 15L - and that's not even naming all of 'em! Explore the Fried Chicken Trail for a culinary adventure through Sacramento. Your appetite will thank you.
