Pop’s Fish & Chicken

Wow, this place was a pleasant surprise. We were hungry between sets at the Foam show tonight and saw the open sign in Pop’s across the street. Our expectations were very low, and the look of the place inside did nothing to assuage our fears. Multiple bright signs, very confusing, it looked like the menu’s of at least three different restaurants were up on the walls: catfish, pizza, gyros, chicken wings, nuggets, and a t-​bone steak.
We ordered a gyro combo and a chicken nuggets combo, each came with some of the best fries I have had in a long time. The gyro was delicious, but we’ll have them hold the pickles next time. The nuggets had the most amazing chiaroscuro in the batter colors. The looked like chunks of chicken breast meat inside, perfectly cooked. You might need to ask for extra BBQ sauce and ketchup.
Delicious food, great prices, walking distance from Foam, Luminary, Melt, and Kismet, 2720, Los Punks, etc. etc. If only they stayed open after the shows, this place would be packed. Definitely worth a try for hungry omnivores on Cherokee.
Only major complaint, no diet sodas. Lots of great Vess flavors, but no diet.

Pretty good Gyro, and at 5.99 with fries and soda it’s a pretty hard deal to beat. Open til Midnight Friday and Saturday.
