Best Fried Chicken Sandwich in New York? Our Take.

We put our fried chicken sandwich up against NYC’s favorites. Here’s why crispy meets juicy at Butter Smash Burgers.

Crispy Meets Juicy

At Butter Smash Burgers, we’re best known for our smashburgers with bold flavors and crispy edges — but our Fried Chicken Sandwich has earned its own cult following in the NYC burger scene. We start with tender chicken, marinate it for maximum flavor, and fry it until the outside is golden and crunchy while the inside stays juicy. Then we layer on American cheese, cool coleslaw, tangy pickles, and our special sauce to create the perfect balance of textures and tastes.

Why Ours Stands Out

NYC is packed with fried chicken options, but ours is unique because we keep it simple, affordable, and halal-certified — without sacrificing flavor. Students from NYU, locals in the West Village, and late-night crowds in the East Village all agree: the Butter Smash Fried Chicken Sandwich hits the sweet spot between crispy, juicy, and crave-worthy.

Pair It Right

What’s a fried chicken sandwich without the perfect sides? Pair yours with our Truffle Fries, classic crispy fries, or finish with one of our sundaes for a sweet ending. And if you’re feeling extra hungry, go for the Chicken Combo — sandwich, fries, and a drink bundled together.

More Than Just Chicken

Of course, our chicken isn’t the only star. Our Truffle Burger, Veggie Smash, and signature house smashburger all bring bold flavors to the table. But if you want to explore beyond beef, our Fried Chicken Sandwich proves why Butter Smash Burgers is more than just a burger joint.
