Catfish is offered as well. The catfish and chicken combination, white meat chicken, sells for $5.20; the dark meat chicken version sells for $5.

The least expensive items here at #1 Chicken Shack are the fried okra and fried mushrooms, which sell for $1.10. There is standing room only here. The area itself is so small that walking outside for a spell while you wait is only natural.
