Between the 3 finger combo meal, the friendly staff and the spotless cleanliness, Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers in Methuen, is now a go-to. 

Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers is an American fast food chain that specializes in chicken finger meals and was founded in 1996 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, by Todd Graves and Craig Silvey. The 3-finger combo comes with 3 chicken fingers, crinkle cut fries, Texas  toast, canes sauce and a choice of fountain drink. As you walk in, the staff greets you and you step up to order. The restaurant is very clean, no overflowing trash or scraps on the ground. The meal is very simple and put together nicely with the focus on the chicken. 

The chicken was moist and flavorful, with the bread crumb over it making it the perfect combination. When the chicken is dunked in the “cane’s sauce” it becomes even better as it pulls everything together with flavors of ketchup and mayo contributing to the seasoning and crispiness of the tenders. The canes sauce has a perfect mix of tangy, sweet and salty. 

The lightly salted fries make for the perfect side of this chicken finger meal. The crinkle cut shape gives a unique texture that is even better than your standard fast food fried potatoes, with the perfect combination of crunchy and soft. Again, the canes sauce adds the perfect flavor and makes the meal that much better.

Finally, the Texas toast brings everything together at the end with that perfect soft and buttery piece of bread, which is toasted and is perfectly fluffy, soft and even has a bit of a crispy texture to it.

Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers is worth the hype it has been given in 2023. I would give this fast food restaurant a 5 out of 5 stars. Each food item between the chicken fingers, texas toast and fries are absolutely delicious. Many have been comparing Raising Canes to Chick-Fil-A. These two fast food chicken chains are equally delicious, different in their own way and both have their own specialty sauces.
