Nashville Coop, located at 856 SE Washington Ave in Minneapolis, MN, serves up a feast of flavorful chicken that has quickly gained a loyal following. From the crisp, spicy Hot Chicken & Waffles to the delectable Chicken Strips, every dish highlights juicy meat paired with authentic seasoning that varies from the mild Minnesota Nice to the sweat-inducing Cluckin' Hot. The customer rave reviews reveal a consensus on the quality and taste of the chicken, often described as "cooked to juicy perfection." Andrew Allen praises the crispy exterior and tender bites, commenting on the delicious creamy sauces that enhance the meal without overwhelming it. A K noted the incredible flavor, emphasizing the boldness of the spice levels that offers a satisfying kick. Signature sides like the Belgian Waffle, coleslaw, and the much-discussed mac and cheese—though its cheesiness was questioned by some—add to the delightful dining experience. With competitive pricing and generous portions, Nashville Coop stands as a worthy competitor to other chicken chains, capturing the hearts (and appetites) of locals and students alike. Enjoying a meal here feels like a celebration of Southern culinary tradition right in the heart of Minneapolis. Whether you're heading to a Gophers game or simply craving good comfort food, Nashville Coop is a must-visit destination.

Nashville Coop has great chicken with amazing seasoning. The chicken is always very juicy and has not overwhelming breading. The size of each piece of chicken is very satisfactory and offers a filling meal. The french fries are some of my favorites. Each meal comes with two sauce containers that are incredible. It is a creamy sauce that adds to the chicken or fries instead of taking away from the flavor. There is a variety of spice levels to select. You can purchase tenders, a sandwich, or a Texas toast meal. They also have sides of coleslaw and macaroni and cheese. In a separate occasion, I had the macaroni and cheese and didn't enjoy it much. It was very thick and bready and did not have a strong cheesy flavor.

Their Chicken strips are delicious and note that their spice levels are Legit! Growlin spice level had me sweating, but it was worth it. Best chicken tenders that I have had in a long time. Usually I don't eat fries, but I tried it here because it was part of the meal and they were not very crispy. However, it had great flavor. I highly recommend this chain!

I am a senior at the university here and I come here with my friend Connor at least once a week. By far the best and most underrated restaurant on campus, easily outclassing its cousin Canes across the street. The chicken is cooked to juicy perfection each time and the hot seasoning is always fantastic. on top of this, they have Better portions Better fries Better sauce 10/10

incredible food and prices. get as much if not more per your dollar than other chicken chains, and you actually get FLAVOR in your meal instead of some bland unseasoned chicken and fries like canes

Stopped by Nashville Coop before a Gophers game. The Texas Toast meal, at coop heat level, is my go to, with toast, chicken tenders, pickles, slaw, fries, and dipping sauce. Good heat on the chicken and the slaw helps cleanse your palate if you need it. I also ordered the mac and cheese. A very creamy mac and it was delicious! Great food, fast service, and a convenient location for all Gophers events!

My favorite chicken sandwich place in campus, chicken was excellently cooked and seasoned, the sauce was great. However the buns were alright and maybe a different one would be good. Overall pretty solid and it’s halal!

Incredible flavor and heat, if you want hot chicken this is the place to go. Support a local restuarant instead of Canes.
