Have to visit Champy's when in Chattanooga. The best fried chicken in town. A must is an order of tamales as an appetizer - with a side of cole slaw (have to try it). Then you have to order the fried chicken....the chicken tenders (buffalo style or not) are also very good. Last recommendation...can't leave without some key lime pie.... More

Fried chicken was great - cripsy outside and juicy inside. Very good and friendly service and reasonably priced.

Champy's has the best fried chicken in town. My friends love the chicken tenders. I prefer the traditional chicken breast and wings. The catfish is also good. The atmosphere is very casual. I have been with work friends and my family (with young kids). Wash it down with a 40. Sit outside. And when you can't eat any more...have the... More

Our first visit to Champy’s and their 1st Annual Champynooga Blues Festival. Great food, music and a friendly staff. We have traveled to Little Rock the past two years to get great crawfish. Well, no more. We will be at Champy’s 2nd Annual Champynooga Blues Festival next year right here in Chattanooga. I hear they have the best fried chicken... More

If you can find better fried chicken anywhere, I would be amazed. Not fancy, not the best service but great food! Do not miss it!

I had a group of business men in from Oklahoma and they wanted a really good meal, I introduced them to Champy's. I raved about the catfish, the "Delta Delight", they discussed getting chicken and catfish then sharing, but all chose the catfish and they went on and on about the flavor and how it was cooked. It comes with... More

I live in the Chattanooga area and I assure you this is some of the best fried chicken you will ever put in your mouth. They cook it to order, so to say it comes out hot to your table is an understatement. The chicken is very crispy on the outside and moist and juicy on the inside. Has some... More
