For the last time, the chicken is not oily!

Of all the Church's installations around town, this is my most frequented location. I usually do takeout here, and alternate between their sandwich or chicken combos. The main highlight here is their chicken, with the oh-so-familiar skin that falls right off. The batter is not too thick, with good flavour, your standard greasiness and very juicy. Most people tend to mistake all the stuff the squirts out as oil, but it is mostly the juices from the meat. Though not concrete, I remember reading a few blurbs before that their chicken is ice cold before entering the oil, giving it their distinctive thin and crispy outer skin and juiciness. Their regular chicken breast sandwich is also a hit but the slice of american cheese on top is an odd pairing. I don't know if this location has it but certain locations have the spicy option which is good in it's own right. The fries are much crispier than before, and I like the crinkle cut style myself, and don't forget the jalapeno bombers either. Everything else on the menu though is merely passable but best to avoid them.

Expect to wait a bit for your order, especially when it's busy. Even at the drive-thru window, I've been told to pull over and wait for my order. It has happened to me a handful of times over the years but it's anyone's guess.

The time's I have eaten in the decor is nothing special, and moderately clean, though most of the staff tend to hover behind the doors.

Church's is one of those foods I crave on occasion, usually surfacing when I gander through the Supersaver coupon books when going through the junkmail. How dare they.
