What customers say?

“ As someone that experienced this facility back in the early 90’s and stopped in for re treat in 2026, It’s still excellent, other than pacing the wings under the fries , rather than over, So you can get the same effect fully ”

“ 10 out of 10.....I would absolutely recommend this place. Although it stays very busy, the staff gets orders out quickly. The ketchup and hot sauce combination on the fries and chicken is absolutely delicious! ”

“ Searched for four days to find good eats and ended up at Green Acres Cafe. This establishment is a bit of what Birmingham is all about. Excellent fried chicken and excellent service. Ordered 15 wings with ketchup and my only regret was not going “all the way” (hot sauce and ketchup). Next time, for sure. Service was amazing and was greeted by a pretty lady with a cute smile working behind the counter. The comments about the mean lady serving the food is just not true. She is just all about business and as it should be. Can not wait to head back to this establishment and order wings all the way and pork chop sandwich. Thank you, Green Acres for the great eats. ”

- Jane Johnson -

“ Green Acres always hits. It may be crowded, but it’s always worth the wait. I ordered the 6 Piece ATW (All The Way) add Lemon Pepper, and the wings were hot, crispy, and full of flavor. The ATW sauce was already on point, and the lemon pepper just made it even better. Service moved pretty quickly despite the crowd, and the food came out fresh every time. It never disappoints, and I’ll always be back. ”
