A roadside chicken shack on Crater Lake Hwy
The Chicken Shanty is a small spot in Medford doing one thing properly: fried chicken, cooked to order and stacked into baskets, sandwiches and wraps with crispy fries alongside.
The sauces are the part people come back for. We make them in house, so there's always something to dip into, from creamy to fruity to genuinely spicy.
Order takeout or delivery, grab a seat outside, and bring the kids. Prices stay friendly, and we're open Monday through Saturday, 11 to 8.

What guests say
“So good! Chicken is fresh and the toppings are perfect. Hot Chicken better than Dave’s, the Crabby, the avo wrap - you cant go wrong. Good value and the fries are awesome. Favorite lemonades around too. Worth the drive.”
“Fantastically friendly staff. Great food. You definitely need to try the Mr crabs, chicken sandwich. They have so many homemade sauces for dipping. The prickly pear lemonade is to die for”
“Decided to treat me & my daughter to something new, we went to the drive-through location on crater lake hwy. I got the coconut fried chicken basket, and my daughter got the spicy fried chicken basket and we got dirty sodas to drink. Everything was made perfectly. I didn’t see any flaws in the food we got. Especially loved the dragon fruit dipping sauce. Absolutely will be back again. Thank you!!”
