| - Loved Pollo Campero on the first visit! I'd heard about the one opening a while back on N. Sharon Amity, but this location was a little closer to the breweries we were at for the day. At 10 PM the place had many people still dining in, which was a good sign. The atmosphere, for what is somewhere between fast food and fast casual, was modern and clean. Since we'd never been before, the cashier was helpful in guiding us in what to order, pointing out that there was a $5 special on the two piece combo meal.
I opted for the grilled chicken and upgraded to the corn salad and plantains for an extra $0.60 total. Well worth it! We also got the 3-piece empanada meal, and while decent, may not be something we'd try again. We had just tried some empanadas from Arepas Grill at Three Spirits brewing and these were not quite as good, though the filling was tasty. The empanada that really stole the show was the dulce de leche dessert empanada. I think we could've ordered a dozen of these and been happy.
The price for all of this goodness was only about $15 - well worth it. Several people had plates of fried chicken that looked amazing, so that is something to look forward to. They also appear to have online ordering, which we'd probably try in the future. Even though it is a chain, would definitely recommend for fresh food at a good price.
