But there's one chain that's considered to have the very best chicken sandwich around.

Any guesses?

New Jersey Can’t Get Enough of This Popular Chicken Sandwich Spot

Food & Wine had the list of the best chicken sandwich chains in the United States according to Yelp.

The one ranked #1 has plenty of locations here in New Jersey, and there's one currently being built in Glassboro on North Delsea Drive.

Drive past any New Jersey location around noon, chances are you'll see a line of cars wrapped around the building.

It's THAT popular.

But they keep the line moving. Somehow, you never have to wait too long.

It's definitely my favorite!
