Federal Donuts & Chicken
Started in Philadelphia in 2011, Federal Donuts and Chicken offers customers crispy fried chicken, specialty hand-crafted donuts, salads, and beverages.
Their donuts are served in multiple ways: ‘Fancy’ (glazed and topped each day in unexpected flavors), ‘Classic’ (in old-fashioned milk glazes), or ‘Hot Fresh’ (made-to-order and tossed in custom sugar and spice blends).
As for their chicken, you can get the hand-battered and twice fried tenders on their own with dipping sauces and seasoning, on a sandwich, or in a salad.
Is your mouth watering yet?
After taking over the Philly area, the chain opened its first New Jersey location in Marlton, and soon we can expect another.
