Salads have their time and place, but sometimes nothing but good old-fashioned comfort food will do… especially delicious fried Southern goodness. When the urge strikes, you don’t have to head to the Deep South to enjoy some fried chicken or or a Po’ Boy. Just walk through the doors of Bucktown in Providence.

Bucktown is located on Providence's West End, a historic urban neighborhood that has enjoyed a revitalization in recent years.

The eatery opened in the summer of 2016, earning instant popularity. It's a bit of a hidden gem, blending in with the neighborhood houses.
The restaurant originally opened as a chicken and fish joint, but they've expanded the menu over the years.

The interior is small and cozy, with counter service and no-frills decor.
But when the food is this scrumptious, you don't need a fine dining ambiance.

Owner Ashley Faulkner can fry chicken like no one else, and it tastes especially amazing on top of a piping hot waffle.
