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

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

Go eat there and you will feel like you just had a home cooked meal at someones house. The chicken is crispy, juicy and seasoned to perfection. The sides are so good you will dig through the bottom of your styrofoam container trying to get more. The desserts are great too with my favorite being the sweet potato pie. If you are in the area you can't pass it up. I have learned that it is better to call your order in 15 minutes before you will arrive so that it is ready right when you walk in the door. Everything is cooked to order there. read less

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

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

EVERYTHING was wonderful, including the staff (Dawn, Finn and the owner, Art). The chicken is the best! Even the white meat was moist (and if you cook, you know that's a hard thing to accomplish!). All 5 sides we had were fresh and homemade. We had 2 deserts- the sweet potato pie and the Hummingbird pie- homemade and delicious. My only wish is that it was closer. None the less, we will be back and we will bring friends. So nice to find a place with real homemade food and good fair prices. read less

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

Decided to check it out and whaddya know, he was right. Everything here is so good and reasonably priced.
The chicken is not deep fried but is breaded more like upscale Shake n' Bake, and unlike most places that do it that way, said chicken is not bland but is very tasty and good. Mac and cheese was excellent, even in this day and age when every single restaurant has rediscovered mac n' cheese (and most of them are not excellent). Baked beans were nice and smokey. Sweet potato pie was awesome - again unlike most places that churn out bland sweet potato pie, this place actually puts some spices in it. Beaver Falls is not a place I expected to see a soul food place opening up but man am I ever glad it did. The restaurant is even nice and cozy to eat in if you want to, although we didn't have time. Lady running the place was super nice and friendly and even ran after me when I forgot my pie (you didn't have to do that ma'am, but when I tasted the pie I was glad you did!) My only complaint is that I live a few hours away so I can't go back every week. 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. . . .
