I've always got a hankering for good fried chicken and this wasn't a disappointment. The chicken was fresh and juicy, hot, and well seasoned. The corn muffin was delicious but a little dry. Wished there was some butter/honey provided. We didn't ask so perhaps they had some and we could have gotten some. The mac and cheese and fries weren't much to speak of, but the BBQ beans were phenomenal! They had a real nice smoky flavor and nice bits of BBQ meats.
Price was more than fair and I'd love to come back and support this nice place. read less

We called for takeout and the man who answered the phone was very pleasant and polite, they also were able to have our order which was pretty big ready in 10 minutes so they definitely get an a+ for customer service.
Now on to the food...it was AMAZING!! I got the 2 piece meal with bbq beans and macaroni and cheese, the chicken was seasoned perfectly, and the sides were delicious, it also came with cornbread that was really good too but it needed a little bit of honey and butter. My boyfriend got the same meal but with greens and mashed potatoes and he was also very impressed with his meal. My sister in law got the waffle bites which are little pieces of chicken fried in waffle batter served with syrup...omg soo good, who would have thought? Lol!! The portions were also huge we were all stuffed before we could even finish our meals!
I really have no complaints at all about this place and I'll definitely be back soon! read less

At first the smell engulfs your senses, then your greeted by a very nice gentleman knowledgeable of his craft. Like any true perfectionist their menu is small but worthy of its size. We ordered and while waiting a free sample thigh was brought out to us. I was mesmerized with the first bite, seasoned to perfection, juicy beyond compare, and not overly breaded like some other places that I won't name. Once I ate my breast and wing I knew I was hooked for life. I honestly believe that these were the finest pieces of chicken I've ever ate. I've tried chicken from Paula Deen's in Savannah, broasted, fried, baked, grilled and smoked. This is the winner by far, hands down! read less

Found this place on here and thought we'd try it. Let me just say, if you are looking for southern soul food, this is the place!!!! Fried chicken was wonderful!!!!!!

I gave the chicken waffle bites a try on my first visit. Was not disappointed. Quit going to KFC and come support this local business. The cornbread muffins taste homemade. Throw some butter on it and it's perfect. The mac and cheese is fantastic is mildly addicting. The staff is super friendly and they really appreciate it when you call ahead so your chicken gets the right amount of time to cook without any rush. Stop by and check them out. read less

This great place is tucked away in downtown Beaver Falls. The chicken, being the star of the show, is fantastic. What really sets it aside though is the range of fresh sides, from the typical mac and cheese and potatoes to mure unusual options like collard greens. All with fast, friendly service and fair prices.
You can eat there, but we get take out. Give it a try, you'll be back for more! read less

We found this place about 5 miles off the PA turnpike and had a great lunch! Nothing complex about the menu, but that didn't matter - the chicken was cooked perfectly and the coating was very light and delicious. The selection of sides was great at tasted great. The restaurant felt like I was in someone's home - the atmosphere was also good. Highly recommend to locals and travelers alike. read less

Husband and I both had the dinners- his lite, mine dark. They come with 2 sides. There was plenty of food. The people working there were so nice (the owners?) and even gave us our choice of a free piece of homemade dessert. We took the german chocolate cheesecake. Really tasty. Altogether was about $14. We will definitely be back! read less

We asked for an all dark meat family dinner...oh man...freshly cooked...and never been sitting under the hot lamp. Very attentive host. Potato salad and coleslaw both were great...specially the house special potato salad.
The walls were covered in blues memorabilia..and the one tv was playing blues music.
The decor was very homely and inviting...a job well done. We were passing through town on our way to Chicago and I must say this place could not be beaten by anything short of the Nashville hot fried chicken!! read less

Originally went to check out the local library next door but the smell brought us in.The chicken is heavenly. Great flavor and cooked perfect. Loving the vibes inside as well. Upbeat music playing and friendly service. We all got different sides to share and sample. All of the sides were fresh and flavorful. Everyone agreed that the beans were the best. The real stand out here was the corn muffin. It was delicious and comforting. If you find yourself in this town do yourself a favor and stop in. read less
Believe it or not, Pennsylvania and Mississippi have something special in common when you visit Beaver Falls. It’s here that we opened. MS Chicken Shack with comforting recipes that bring this connection to life. For one, we have all the welcoming charm that the South is known for.
We’re also a popular spot for our community to gather and make connections.
But above all, we’re a chicken joint known for our flavorful breading, our large portions, and a musically-inspired menu that puts the soul in soul food.
With food this delicious and an atmosphere this cool, it’s no wonder Beaver Falls gets their chicken from the shack.
Mississippi Chicken Shack serves chicken with soul
BEAVER FALLS -- Mississippi Chicken Shack owner William “Art” Coleman doesn’t know much about the business benefits of Facebook or the internet. His soul music-themed restaurant on Seventh Avenue in Beaver Falls has relied instead on filling a gap in the marketplace and word-of-mouth advertising. Coleman, a Rochester resident and a retired caseworker for the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare, never had a dream of opening his own restaurant. The Chicken Shack’s general manager, Finis Lawson, also known as “The Chicken Man,” and cook Dorothea Barnes brought up the idea to their friend Coleman. . . .
