Every time I go there the chicken fingers get smaller and the price goes up. However the food tastes great and is consistent every time.

Caden Ezell from Oswego canes is great! He didn’t make fun of for our order which was really nice. The food was so good and i honestly think he deserves promotion. What a great day to be an oswegoan

Chicken that tastes like chicken and their cane sauce is a must. If you don't like coleslaw, you can trade it out for more sauce or an extra piece of toast in your meal. Coke has a refreshing crispy flavor.

Not sure why I didn't try this earlier. Instantly became my new favorite restaurant. The few things they do, they do really well. Chicken is always tender and juicy. If you're not big on coleslaw, trade it for an extra bread and then thank me later.
