Mary Brown's Chicken (West Springs)
The West Springs Mary Brown's on 85 Street SW, a recent opening in the West 85th plaza - and the first of the chain's halal stores on the west side of the city, where the rest sit south, north and east. What halal means here A reader asked at the counter and was shown a certificate. That is a first-hand report to this site rather than our own check, and it is the strongest kind of evidence short of verifying it ourselves - which is how the Shepard and Quarry Park stores got on this map. Mary Brown's has no chain-wide halal program in Canada: it is set franchise by franchise, so what is true of this store is true of this store only. Ask to see the certificate before ordering for a family, the same as anywhere else in the chain. The full story of how this chain works is worth five minutes if you have been assuming the brand is halal. What to order The chain's breaded chicken, wings, wraps and the potato taters. Prices run high for the portion by one account - a small chicken sandwich around four dollars. Good to know Open 11am to 11pm, seven days - later than most of the halal options on the west side. The service is what the reviews are about, and staff are named individually in nearly all of them. A young listing. Thirty ratings so far, and Google's record of it is still thin: takeout and delivery are not listed, and one reviewer reports not being able to eat in. Phone before you plan around either. Rated 4.8 from 30 Google reviews.
