The unique and delicious taste of our chicken cannot be found anywhere except Harold’s Chicken Restaurant in Northalsted, with sixty years of success based on a variety of measures. At the heart of our success is our fresh chicken marinated in a signature blend of spices and then prepared in our secret way. From our creative theme, the man chasing the chicken, to our special mild sauce, we have continued to keep customers coming back by smothering their perfectly fried chicken in our famous mild sauce. We tantalize and satisfy your taste buds with our hot and juicy chicken prepared to perfection with a sensational taste.

Harold’s Chicken shack was founded in 1950 by Harold Pierce, a black entrepreneur on Chicago’s south side. Since then, Harold’s has expanded to include the west side, the north side, Normal Illinois and a few other major cities across the U.S.

All of the chicken and fish served at Harold’s Chicken Shack Downtown is made to order as Harold Pierce originally intended, and is served with our famous Harold’s mild or hot sauce. Stop by and try THE BEST soul food in Chicago!
