| - As far as I'm concerned, Mary Brown's is easily first place for fast food fried chicken in Canada- in fact, others such as KFC don't even deserve to share the podium.
I can't even count how many times I've ordered from Mary Brown's (including some other locations) and it's a positive experience the overwhelming majority of the time, so they have great quality control across the board.
I find the chicken is meatier, better quality and somehow less greasy tasting - though it's obviously deep fried. Their batter and seasonings are wonderful and the spicy option does in fact carry some good heat to it. Almost every time I've been around someone trying it for the for time, they'll mention how good it is. I also suspect they do a great job of ensuring their oil is changed regularly, as you never have that extra smokey taste, and dark look on the meat that you may get at some places, such as at Popeye's on off days.
The taters are so good that it's often the thing people mention about the right away. A million times better than a regular fry option at other fast food places, and still enjoyable even if they've cooled down a little. Nice gravy too.
This location has great service, and from my experience, the owner is usually present. It's great not only for quality control, but a handful of times when I ordered a large amount (20+ pieces) for an event, he was willing to provide a special discount. I can't guarantee you'll have that experience, but it has been mine at least. Regardless, you should come away happy with the service you have at this place.
