Whether you’re planning a big watch party or just need a quick fix after work, support local spots—and get some seriously saucy, flavor-packed wings while you’re at it—with this guide to Eagle Pass’s top purveyors of poultry perfection. Here are a few of our favorites.
Church’s Texas Chicken
$ | (830) 773-1500 | WEBSITE
This Eagle Pass chicken spot serves up fresh, hot, and delicious fried chicken, with their tenders and fries getting particular praise from regulars. They also offer sides like macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes, though some customers have noted the gravy can be watery and the mash not mixed quite right. There have been occasional reports of incorrect orders, especially with the tender meal, but many diners still enjoy the overall experience.
It’s unclear whether these issues are location-specific or more widespread, but the food and service have left a positive impression on plenty of customers. For pickup, you can visit their Eagle Pass location.
Chance and Lee’s
$ | (830) 776-7656 | WEBSITE
A nostalgic pizza joint in Eagle Pass, Chance and Lee’s serves delicious pies with a fusion of Italian and Mexican flavors, along with wings in various sauces and dry rubs. They’ve got super-friendly staff and an owner who make everyone feel welcome, and they’ve got some great vegetarian options, too. We recommend the chicken and artichoke pizza and the Chicken Caesar Salad with its generous dressing and croutons. For more fun, play Pac Man or pinball while you wait.
Little Caesars Pizza
$ | (830) 773-7227 | WEBSITE
Little Caesars Pizza is as straightforward as it gets – they’ve been serving Eagle Pass since before anyone called it a chicken wing destination. In addition to crispy, flavorful pizzas that could use a touch more seasoning and a bit less fat, they’ve got that perfect family-friendly portion sizing (plus some soft crusts that could be crunchier). Management is attentive even when busy, and the counter worker is consistently kind.
Local pickup available – for more information, or to order, just walk right in.

Pizza Hut
$ | (830) 773-5371 | WEBSITE
Pizza Hut in South Texas is a beloved restaurant known for their excellent pan pizza and satisfying wings. They serve pizza with that classic buttery crust, extra cheese, and crispy pepperoni that hits just right. Be sure to stop by – you’ll find generous portions of their wings and pasta that are highly enjoyable across the board. The service here is commendable, with servers who are courteous, patient, and efficient, memorizing orders without needing to write them down.
Management training shines through in the high level of customer care. The atmosphere is welcoming and nostalgic, blending modern big-screen TVs and high stools with familiar older decor like those lamps we all remember. Don’t miss the mini arcade section at the end – it adds that extra touch to the overall experience.
While one diner mentioned a mix-up with a pasta dish, the consensus is clear: this location truly stands out as one of the best in the area, delivering an excellent meal from start to finish.
Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen

If there’s a better place to get fried chicken than Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, we’re not sure we know about it. They’ve got all the classics you’d want, from spicy chicken sandwiches and crispy wings to well-seasoned tenders and multiple kinds of biscuits and sides. They’re on the main strip in Eagle Pass, or you can use the quick drive-thru ($8-12 for combos with a small wait, free extra sauce on orders over $20) during their busy evenings.
