April in terminal E is rude. She walked past me TWICE to serve customers who came in after me. She never greeted me. Once she finally came over, she told me to go to another area to order and then I was told that was not the correct area. After ordering, she gave me my receipt...no thank you, no asking if I needed anything else, nothing. Other customers also mentioned how rude she was to them. Worst service I've ever had. I was hoping to see Mikey in terminal C because he's always amazing, helpful and kind. Maybe he can teach her about customer service.

It’s our family tradition to eat at Chickies before our flight. I order wings with bbq sauce on the side since I’m not a fan of too much sauce on my wings. My son ordered a crabcake burger which he loved and looked delicious. Happen to be Super Bowl Sunday so we got to catch a bit of the game before our flight. A drink before you board. A plane is always fun. You’re also allowed to take your drink to the waiting area outside of the restaurant, which is an added bonus. Staff waitress make us all feel special and look happy and ready to serve, which is the most important for us until our next flight. See you soon.

We needed an airport drink to kick off our trip to LA, as my girlfriend was coming to meet my fam. Heavy shots.
Chickie's and Pete's became the OBVIOUS choice, the only choice really, when they had on the 1997 NBA Slam Dunk Contest that featured Kobe Bean Bryant.
There were only like 2 servers working here, so I was a little stressed about time but literally right when we sat down we were handed a menu and within 3 minutes they were back ready to take our order.
I got caught watching Kobe work so when she came back and my pookie said "vodka soda please," I was scrambling to look at the menu because I'm really shy and get scared to ask for one more minute.... especially when pookie threw me under the bus like that...
I normally order wine, but after getting looked at like I just slapped a prime Ghandi in the face for ordering wine in divey places like this, I started folding like a lawn chair and ordering beer. Also that wine do be giving me a headache ahahaha.
I scrambled to look for an IPA as I know these are respected in the beer community, and they're honestly not half bad. I saw the Founder's All Day IPA was from Grand Rapids, MI and I LOVE South Western Michigan so I had to rep.
Our drinks were on the table within 2 minutes. Just absolute quality service, shoutout to our server, Lauren. We see you sis!! Keep workin they need to cut you a check the way you be grinding in here!!
THANK YOU CHICKIE! THANK YOU PETE!

My Kids and I had to wait 8 hours for our next flight. This place just opened and it was absolutely empty, but we got moved away, cause we didn't order any food. I mean, I would totally understand, if we wood block any space, but we were the only people in here. Absolutely not family friendly.

A really good meal was had at this spot! The cheesesteak and sweet potato fries with that maple sauce hits like Jackie Robinson. I ended up at this spot as a result of leaving a platter of awful food at Bar Symon. the service at Chickies was great with this wonderful recommendation. Definitely recommend you give them a try while at the airport. Excuse the pic I did have a full basket of fries.

Typical chickie and Pete's. Food is fine for the weary traveler. They have liquor for those that need to take the edge off before a flight. Breakfast sandwich was good and huge. Service was good as well. Place is small so when crowded it is probably a scene.

Fantastic crab cakes. I could eat these any day of the week! Lively atmosphere and loud music - upbeat for sure. The service is fast and friendly. Would recommend Chickie's and Pete's to every adult passing through the Philadelphia International Airport!

Crab Fries
Tried the combo crab and sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were better than the “famous crab fries” which left something to be desired. Like many of the other comments, service was slow but the restaurant was not crowded. The fries were nice and hot when they hit the table.

We tried a few of the best phili cheesesteaks around Philadelphia and while these one is not on par with Woodrow's it is a very good one and worth the calories. Also great choice of draft beer.
For airport food it was pretty good
Quick sevice, and good variety on menu.
We got the crabby fries sweet potato combo which came with maple dip and cheese dip, it was good and plenty for whole table. Other members got the chicken club and chicken wrap, which they said were good. Good for vegetarian bite to eat while waiting at airport.
