Immediately you will notice the artwork. Chicken paintings of various sorts are all over the wall. It is truly unique. The server went over and beyond while serving our tables. The nachos were delicious. My Hawaiian chicken was excellent. I was told that the pumpkin cheesecake was amazing. The pumpkin spice was spicing. Everyone enjoyed everything they ate. You have got to try this place.

An eclectic little joint in Allendale PA which draws locals and travelers alike. Great food prepared in open kitchen, good drinks and lots of laughs!

Food is decent but, like so many places that are jumping on the bandwagon price increases, the Chicken Lounge is beginning to, in my opinion, getting to a point where I'm beginning to look for alternatives. For one thing, they do not have 2 sizes of their famous nachos. Only one size and the price is $24. Need to bring back a smaller portion size.

Well was in town for work and co worker took us here. It was a little weird out front. Just a door and no windows. Walked in and it was a great dive place. They cooked your food in front of you. The grill is actually in the middle of the restaurant. The cook was hustling but was very calm. Very personable and recommend distilleries in the area. Our server was great also. Even though she apologized for not getting to us sooner, we didn't care and was not in a rush. The owner was there and was in the grind (which is a good sign). He talked to everyone not just about the food but on a friendly level. So a lot of regulars. Good signs.

Of all the bird-themed casual dining options in Allentown (Ringer's Roost, Union & Finch), The Chicken Lounge is truly something special. Currently nestled between a Pizza Hut and a gourmet dog treats store, the Lounge's "street-scaping" is limited to a chalkboard sign, a duo of potted plants, and a faded sign that shows two fuzzy chicks emerging from the corner of a cracking egg. Compared to the massive GOURMET BUFFET & GRILL signage in the same shopping complex, the Chicken Lounge plays it far more chill. And why shouldn't it? The Chicken Lounge has been around forever. My mom used to come here after her night classes in nursing school more than 30 years ago. Your mom may have even come here to eat pierogies, knock back wine coolers, and shoulder-shimmy in her seat to Wham! My mom and your mom may have even been there AT THE SAME TIME. At least from how my mom tells it, the Chicken Lounge has barely changed. The service is friendly. The clientele is locals. The lighting is your dimmer switch on its lowest setting. The layout is colosseum-style, with the open kitchen in the center, ringed by bar seating, encircled by booths and tables. The decor is chickens. And, in terms of the food, the food is nachos. I guess you could order wings (I haven't) or burgers (I have, and they're good), but if you don't also order the nachos you're not really experiencing The Chicken Lounge in all of its splendor. They used to have a small nacho, which was massive, and a large nacho, which came served on a hubcap (joking, but not really). Now they just have one-size, and, yes, it's 25 bucks, but what's 25 bucks for a plate of nachos that can feed a family of four and deliver a transcendental nacho experience? Layer by glorious layer, The Chicken Lounge builds its nacho base with Doritos Nacho Cheese-like tortilla chips, a heavy spackling of refried beans, chunky taco sauce, and an Afghan blanket of melted Monterey Jack. Then they clobber this mound with thick-sliced pickled jalapeños, guacamole, and an oversized ice cream scoop of sour cream. You could order chicken on top, but then your stomach is going to hemorrhage and my mom doesn't come here basically every night anymore and probably won't be there to help you. As you move through this formidable nacho stack, each bite brings new combinations of flavors, the increasing need for a fork, and a gradual (but pleasant!) bloating. If you manage to make enough headway that you see at least a portion of the paper plate beneath it all, then you've done a decent job. Order all this with one of their way-better-than-average craft beer offerings on tap, and you're Chicken Lounging. Just hold the wine cooler.

This was our second visit in 15 years. Not a bad little place. I'm not sure I would go out of my way to go there but if I were in the neighborhood I might. We had wings and a steak sandwich. The sandwich had a regular piece of steak on it. Good size! Wings were ok but not crispy, kind of tasted microwaved and then seasoned (weird but not horrible). Excellent chili! Prices were different than what menu lists. Needs to be updated! Ok dinner Friendly accommodating staff!
