Erik RowleyDecember 28, 2015Comfort food. You will feel like you are eating a home cooked meal and Grandma's house, and be ready for the large portions. Trust me, they surprise you with cinnamon rolls at the end!
Brendan O'NeillMay 14, 2013Hands down the absolute best fried chicken I have ever had. Great friendly family location with fresh and tasty food choices. I even bought a tee-shirt ;-) I'll be back next time I'm in the KC area.
Susan WellfordAugust 8, 2014Most people go for the pan fried chicken and all the sides, but not me. Give me the awesome chicken fingers with a side of honey mustard any day. Oh, and save room for the hot cinnamon rolls. Wowza!
George HogbergSeptember 22, 2014This is the best food on the planet, and yes I've eaten all other food. Make a pile of food things, cover said pile with gravy, fall into euphoric coma.
Olli KMarch 8, 2015Amazing meal. Come hungry because you'll definitely leave full. Great green beans and taters. Great chicken too.
JJ GonzalezAugust 8, 2012The best pan-fried chicken in Kansas City! Come on an empty stomach, you'll be fed like its thanksgiving at your grandmas house. This restaurant has been seen on Man vs. Food.
Louise CapraJune 19, 2016Their fried chicken, mashed potatoes or fries! Huge chicken breasts, all crispy & hot!! It's fried when you order so make time.
Carli IlesNovember 13, 2015I order the chicken strips for lunch to-go, and there is always enough there for at least three meals.
Shawna Peña-DowningSeptember 27, 2014If it's just two people, share a meal. It will fill you both up with possible leftovers.
Joe DavisAugust 15, 2011Great place for a Sunday family dinner. And as everyone mentioned... the cinnamon rolls are awesome.
P KNovember 4, 2012Try the Chicken Fried Chicken - I'm glad we shared, great chicken, potatoes and green beans.
SheilaOctober 9, 2016The staff is super nice, but the fried chicken is only okay. Be prepared to nap after eating here... it's a lot of food!
The best chicken noodle soup on earth! Perfect when you're filling sick.
Shane SmithNovember 16, 2012For those who bitch about time it takes 20 mins to pan fry chicken its not KFC
It will take all your willpower, but try your best to save room for one of their spectacular cinnamon rolls.
Tyler JenkinsMay 17, 2010Go to Strouds, go with the classic chicken fried chicken, but be careful! its big enough for 2 to split...
Michael WomackMarch 23, 2014Family birthday event. Didn't feel like chicken, got the KC Strip. Thick but dry and almost tasteless even at Medium. Stick to the chicken.
Kolika The Queen of EverythingJanuary 20, 2015Don't plan to be active after you eat here. And wear your fat pants.
Jeff ZwegoJanuary 7, 2011Rip off alert!!! A single dinner costs $16 and is way too much food for one person. If you want to split the meal they charge you an extra $9! Oh...and it takes a half hour minimum to get your food.

Enjoy a little piece of Pan-Fried history when you dine at Stroud's!
The year was 1933. Prohibition had just been repealed, we were between two World Wars and Stroud’s Restaurant was built. Stroud’s started as a BBQ restaurant by Guy and Helen Stroud on the county line at 85th and Troost.
