I was in Greenville, NC on biz and had the opportunity to grab breakfast without the client that I was traveling with.   When in south, I think chicken and biscuits for breakfast.  I had about 15 minutes to eat and I saw a Bojangles, so I decided to give it a try.

Started in 1977, Bojangles does the cajun chicken thing.  Think Popeyes. Normal fast food ordering system, a few combos, sides, etc.   Right at the counter, there was a tray that had tater rounds and some fruit sticky bun type items.  I was thinking that I was not sure how fresh the taters were.  Honestly, I don’t like to see my fast food before it hits my tray.

What I Got:  Cajun fillet biscuit combo.  About $4.00.

As far as taste, there were some cajun spices on the chicken breast, more than you would find at McDonald’s, however it didn’t have a lot of punch.  I found the chicken fillet to be a little salty as well.  My biggest complaint is that the fillet was really thin and dry.

The biscuit was pretty standard fast food.  Not even close to the king of morning fast food biscuits: Hardee’s.  Combine a dry biscuit with a dry fillet and the result was pretty dismal.

As you can see in the picture, you only get four tater rounds as a side.  There were very average and not even worth me talking about.

Would I Buy It Again:  No. Maybe I caught them at a bad time and one would only assume with this being regional fast food that they have a pretty solid following, but after this meal, I can’t imagine why.

Also, they had Christian music playing.  I just can’t listen to that at 6:00 am…actually ever.
