No, CFC does not serve pork, bacon, ham, or any pork-derived products. Our menu is focused exclusively on chicken-based items, sides, and beverages. This commitment ensures that our menu is accessible to guests who avoid pork for dietary, religious, or personal reasons.
Additionally, our menu does not include any alcoholic beverages. We are dedicated to providing a family-friendly dining experience for all our guests.
While CFC strives to maintain a consistent core menu across all locations, some variations may occur. Franchise owners may occasionally offer location-specific items or limited-time specials based on regional preferences and ingredient availability.
If you’re looking for a specific menu item, we recommend contacting your local CFC restaurant directly to confirm availability. The core menu items, including our signature fried chicken, are available at all CFC locations.
Freshness is at the heart of everything we do at CFC. Our chicken is prepared fresh throughout the day at each location—we never use frozen or pre-cooked chicken.
The preparation process includes:
• Hand-breading each piece with our signature seasoning blend
• Cooking to golden perfection using our proven techniques
• Serving promptly to ensure optimal taste and texture
This commitment to freshness means you can taste the difference in every bite. While this approach requires more care and attention from our kitchen teams, we believe it’s the only way to deliver the quality our guests deserve.
While CFC specializes in chicken, we offer several side dishes that are suitable for vegetarians. These include:
• French fries
• Coleslaw
• Mashed potatoes (prepared without meat-based ingredients)
• Corn on the cob
• Green beans
• Mac & cheese
Please note that while these sides don’t contain meat, they are prepared in a kitchen that also handles chicken products. If you have specific dietary concerns or restrictions, we recommend speaking with the staff at your local CFC restaurant for more detailed information.

Clarification about ordering options and pricing policies.
