The Chicken Coop - West Des Moines

Sports bar atmosphere. Everything every time I have been there and takeout has been as ordered. Great choices and everything tasty!

I enjoy their fried cheese curds and fried pickle spears. The donuts for dessert are simple and delicious. There are plenty of food options for a main course. If you enjoy bar food, and don 't want a bar atmosphere, go early in the day and have some great food. If you like it more lively, leave small kids at home, and have a fun evening out. They sometimes have live music, games (only if you want to play), and other entertainment in the evenings.Kid-friendliness: The Chicken Coop has a bar type setup. We had supper early enough that it was kid (teenager) friendly. I could see that some parents with small kids might not like some of the sports playing on the tvs. And the bar is visible from most seating areas.Parking: The Chicken Coop is part of a strip mall so there is plenty of free parking.

My husband and I ordered wings with sweet rub. These were not suppose to be spicy, but were too spicy for us. We call Restaurant, no answer several times. Called a different location, they said we were right. What we ordered shouldn't have been spicy. Gave up calling the original Restaurant. Will never return to this location.

We have been here twice and we absolutely love it! The wings were delicious, best we have ever had in Iowa. The sides were also great! Good selection of beer on tap and a fun atmosphere! It’s a great place to watch sports as well. Very friendly staff! We will absolutely be back here for more wings!

I love this place, I usually only get carry out during the day, but they are always on point. One time I had to mix up with my money and could only afford to buy a drink and the bartender was down to earth about it. Humble, hard working people here
