        Under new management or ownership. The chicken is dry and overcooked. Didn't recognize anyone working there. Been a customer for years , but won't be back.

        None Better

        I've been eating Lee's chicken for over 10 years and it continues to be the best chicken I've ever had (sorry mom). I travel alot and since I love chicken, I try it almost everywhere I go. To date, I have never found one I like better and the only one that came close was in Lima, Ohio - but it was a Lee's Famous Recipe as well!



        Oh, if you're a liver/gizzard fan, don't miss the Monday special. Alot of places I go don't make livers & gizzards any more but the Danville Lee's does and man are they ever good! If you live in Danville, you've probably already had Lee's and know what I'm talking about. If you don't, I guarantee it's worth the drive!

        Best Chicken Period!

        Lee's is a Danville landmark. They have the best chicken that you can get for miles around. The red beans and rice are my favorite and the green beans are made like Grandma would cook. The coleslaw is tasty as well. It's all good at Lee's Chicken!
