Crack Shack Private Events- Pasadena

This place is an absolute gem in Pasadena. I feel very lucky to have one close by. This chicken sandwich is debatably top 3 in my book. I came here on a Saturday night and was recommended by a friend to try the firebird and it did not disappoint one bit. I love the flavor of the sauce they put on the chicken. Not too spicy with a light kick. The fried onions and pickles add so well to the sandwich. Their ranch is some of the better ranch I’ve had too. My favorite part of the chicken is how juicy and tender it is on the inside while keeping a perfect crunch on the outside. The fries are addictive as well, a little on the salty side but I still loved them. The price is also a little expensive but well worth treating yourself to once in a while. 10/10 would recommend

Wow. This place is terrific. The atmosphere is casual but classy. The menu is is an interesting mix of Sandwiches, Bowls, and the ever so AMAZING Fried Chicken. Seriously, this is some special chicken. The quality and freshness is almost impossible to find elsewhere. The schmaltz fries were simply delicious. I honestly think they must but real crack in them. Every detail was great, right down the the sauces offered on their condiment bar. I wish there was a location closer to me. Pasadena is about an hour drive but you can bet I will be back often never the less. Don't hesitate, just get in your car and go check it out.

I never knew fried chicken sandwiches could taste so good, and I can thank the Crack Shack for enlightening my taste buds. I got the firebird, which is a little spicy but very delicious (have to mention the crunchy/tasty pickles are a perfect addition). The fries are crunchy. The sauces are great. They serve alcohol and beer and even have a small bar area in the back corner. The place is well lit and spacious. They even have a handwashing basin in the front of the restaurant. It's in Old Town so you'll have to park in a structure or get lucky with street parking.

A solid fried chicken spot, but rather pricey for what it is. A good selection of dipping sauces, which is a great touch. Their fountain drinks are all craft sodas so that’s another nice touch. The vibe is mellow and service is quick. Can get packed during peak times but never too long of a line or wait. They have a huge TV so if you’re wanting to catch a game, this is a great spot with a full bar.

Yes! Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes. Yes to everything about this place. Yes to the excellent sandwiches (Coop Deville was tasty, and the Firebird was just the right amount of hot). Yes to the flavorful fries (and the variety of sauces). Yes to the friendly staff. Yes to the Lemonade (gotta go lemonade when eating chicken). Yes to the setup (plenty of large tables for groups, lots of TVs, and a small kids play area). It's going to cost you a pretty penny but the food here is so good they earned that bump.
