Sports Bar in Dorchester, SC
We'd like to welcome you the coolest coop in Dorchester: The Kickin' Chicken. Life in the Lowcountry is all about laid-back vibes and fun times, and we serve up those same experiences alongside our famous coop favorites seven days a week.
Whether you're gathering friends and family for game day or want a fresh, fast dinner for the two of you, we've got something to meet everyone's needs. Dorchester residents love to eat at our restaurants because we know what they like to eat, drink, and play. No, we didn't conduct surveys and focus groups to get that conclusion - owners Chip Roberts and Bobby Perry grew up right here in Charleston. Like many Chucktown natives, they attended the University of South Carolina before finding their path in life.
After graduating college, Chip and Bobby saw a chance to add to the delicious food culture in Charleston. In 1997, Bobby and Chip partnered up to start Charleston's favorite bar and grill: The Kickin' Chicken. If you've ever visited our restaurant, you know it was never meant to be a fancy, sit-down eatery. Instead, Chip and Bobby envisioned serving fresh, delicious food to their fellow Charlestonians in a fun and enjoyable atmosphere.
After opening their first location in Charleston, Bobby and Chip knew they had something special on their hands. After building a loyal fanbase and experimenting with the recipe for its now-famous Kickin' Chicken sandwich, it was time to expand.
To help facilitate that expansion, David Miller came onboard after they opened a second location. Finally, with the guidance and knowledge that David brought, the Kickin' Chicken had become a staple in South Carolina and an incredibly popular sports bar in Dorchester, SC.
Today, we're still cooking up fresh, tasty meals and great times at all our locations around metro Dorchester. We're proud to be Lowcountry natives and strive for excellence with every plate and drink we deliver to your table or front door.

Welcome to Your New Favorite Bar and Grill in Dorchester, SC
Our sports bar wouldn't be what it is without a menu full of coop favorites, signature sandwiches, and cold beverages. Here are just a few of our customer's go-to dishes and drinks to enjoy at Kickin' Chicken:
Starters
They say first impressions make a world of difference. Our starters are sure to whet your appetite and show your stomach how serious we are about making it happy.
Bobby Fries
"I'll just eat half of those Bobby Fries now, and I'll save the rest for later," is a phrase that nobody says. Why? Because our Bobby Fries are basically heaven on earth, and it's almost impossible to put them down. We start with sizzling, fresh fries hot out of the fryer and top them with creamy ranch dressing, crispy bacon bits, and a blanket of melted cheeses. We then serve them straight to your table or house, so you can dig in even if you're not dining out.
Fried Pickles
Lightly breaded and fried to golden-brown perfection, our fried pickles are equal parts tangy and tasty. With a cup of cool ranch served on the side, it's hard to quit dipping these crispy pickle chips. Order up a batch or two to enjoy with friends on college gameday or as a precursor to your memorable meal at Kickin' Chicken.
Kickin' Nachos
Get ready for one of the biggest, best plates of nachos that you've ever seen in a Dorchester sports bar. We start with a heaping helping of crispy, crunchy tortilla chips and top them with our indulgent house queso. We then add melty mixed cheese, crisp lettuce, cool tomato, onion to the mix, so you can say you ate your veggies. We top it all off with zesty jalapenos for a little extra kick.
Chicken, Rubs, & Sauces
Our chicken dishes helped put us on the map, so be sure you try one or all of our fresh-made choices of fried poultry perfection.
Wings
Whether you're "winging" in the weekend or need football-day food for your whole crew at the bar, our famous chicken wings are a crowd favorite at Kickin' Chicken. Hot and crispy on the outside and tender and juicy inside, you can't go wrong with fried chicken wings, especially when friends are near and sports is on the TV. Sauce up your wings with flavors like buffalo, Nashville hot, hot honey garlic, Polynesian, or pterodactyl. Or, if you prefer, let us rub your meat with lemon pepper, ranch, spicy ranch, or Jamaican jerk. The choice is yours, and none of them are wrong.
Kickin' Nuggets
A world without great chicken nuggets is a world we don't want to live in. That's why we made our own! Our fresh-cut, hand-breaded, all-white meat nuggets are served with fries and your choice of honey mustard or ranch for dipping.
Kickin' Tenders
Our marinated chicken tenders are big, juicy, and hand-breaded in our unique blend of spices. You won't find these plump tenders at any fast-food drive-thru! Before we deliver your Kickin' Tenders, we load up your plate with crispy fries and add a cup of honey mustard for dipping. Concerned about your cardio? Order your tenders grilled instead of fried!
Signature Wraps & Sandwiches
Our Kickin' Chicken wraps and sandwiches are handheld masterpieces that will leave your tummy full of joy.
The Kickin' Chicken
This sandwich is the one that started it all! We pile tender, juicy chicken and crispy bacon into a soft sandwich roll and cover it with a melty blanket of provolone cheese. With a side of our extra-special sauce for dipping, this is chicken sandwich nirvana that you can only find at our bar and grill in Dorchester, SC.
The Johnny
Want to take your Kickin' Chicken to the next level? Our The Johnny takes all the best things about our original version and adds that spicy tang that you're craving. This fan-favorite comes with your choice of french fries, pasta salad, coleslaw, or potato chips, complete with ranch or bleu cheese for dipping.
Boss Burger
Cheddar cheese, onion straws, lettuce, tomato, smoky BBQ aioli.
Coop Favorites
Like the famous Kickin' Chicken sandwich, our Coop Favorites are uniquely us and full of Lowcountry love and flair.
Kickin' Quesadilla
In "queso" you didn't know, you can sponsor your good mood with our take on this classic bar food staple! We take your pick of chicken, shrimp, or veggies, add mixed cheese, onions, and peppers, and grill it to perfection. We then deliver it to your door or table with fresh salsa and yummy sour cream to complete this masterpiece.
Chicken & Waffles
Crispy fried chicken. Pillowy-soft Belgian waffles. A side of salty bacon and sweet syrup. Breakfast for dinner never sounded so great!
Salads
Our salads are tasty, lean, and green to help your body keep running like a machine. With unique salad dressings and awesome add-ons, your new favorite dish might just be doctor recommended.
The Southwest Salad
Our house salad topped with black bean & corn mix, and tortilla crisps. Served with our creamy cilantro lime. Add Chicken $5, Shrimp $6, Veggie Burger $5.
The Kickin' Chicken Salad
A refreshing salad topped with your choice of fried or grilled chicken, this salad is far from rabbit food, and will leave you feeling full without having to unbutton your pants.

SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (WCSC) - Dorchester County and Summerville residents, along with local businesses, will soon have the chance to help shape a vision plan for the future of their community.
In collaboration with the county and the town, the Greater Summerville-Dorchester County Chamber of Commerce is committed to ensuring that the area continues to thrive as its population grows.
Dorchester County recently approved funding of up to $100,000 to support creating the vision plan. Project leaders say that is on top of the $100,000 the Town of Summerville approved to go towards it as well.
Greater Summerville-Dorchester County Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Rita Berry says that this plan will focus on feedback from the community.
“We are one of the fastest growing counties in the state of South Carolina and we just want to get it right. So, as we grow we want it to be a very thoughtful way and we’re looking to opportunities and just hearing the voice of the community as to what are some things, ways that they feel would be responsible growth,” Berry says.
Project leaders say that community members and businesses will have the opportunity to share ideas on what matters most to them, as well as their concerns.
“Childcare, attainable housing, transportation infrastructure, the ability to work and play where you live,” Chamber Foundation Board Chairman Michael Wood says. “We have a lot of concerns about educational systems, wanting to make sure that we continue to maintain that elite edge in our educational systems, and so that is in of itself just a small amount of where I think the focus is going to be. We’re going to find out a whole lot more when we really start getting people involved.”
Wood says that this is also an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of the town and the county.
“We think there are a lot of good things going on in the town and the county right now, but part of the challenge is us not knowing, or there not being the information pushed out to where the general public may not understand something great just happened around the corner, and so we want to be a part of that messaging as well,” Wood says.
Project leaders say that last year their board of directors identified this vision plan as a top priority. Since then, they’ve been discussing and working to get the plan underway, with the goal of having it completed by the end of this year.
“Implementation. Once we have this completed, that is phase one and then we have to move forward with getting something done and we want to do it. That’s why public input is so critical because we want to have something completed that the people want and they ask for,” Wood says.
Berry says that they will have several public input meetings across the county and the town, as well as an option to provide feedback online. She says they hope to release the schedule for those in a couple of weeks.
Berry says their next step is to sign an agreement with the consulting company that they chose to help develop the vision plan.
