15 Fast Food Chicken Tenders Ranked Worst To Best

Chicken tenders are usually a safe bet. More often than not, you can be pretty well assured of what you're going to get. It's no wonder they're a staple of kids' menus everywhere. Even when they're mediocre, they're pretty good.

Unless they're just flat-out bad, that is. A dry, flavorless chicken tender is truly the saddest food. So much potential, wasted. Then again, sometimes, with the right spices and cooking method, a humble chicken tender can be something utterly transcendent. The truth of the matter is that not all chicken tenders on fast food menus are on an equal footing. They run the full gamut from bad to transcendent, and we've tried a whole bunch to let you know what to get and what to avoid. So here are 15 fast food chicken tenders, ranked worst to best.

Which fast food chain do you think has the best chicken tenders?

[pittsburghpirateshat]

A list about chicken tenders and you don’t include raising canes?! A place that literally mainly serves chicken tenders!

[ghettosapien]

I heard someone say “Chick-Fil-a chicken tastes like chicken that was raised by both parents”. 😄

[joshuajcastro]

Idk... Cane's should have been somewhere on the list. They're not too shabby.

[Megacooler_]

I'm surprised yall didn't include Raising Canes

[kevinbeaugez]

How and the hell did you guys forget Cane's, do

[ramenandgyoza]

Why isnt Raisin Cane's in here? They are simply the best in Chicken Tenders! Heck thats the only thing they serve!

[GoonerKVN]

Wait, so you guys didn't do Raisin Canes? Theyre literally the tender guys

[Slushman]

The fact that Raising Cane’s wasn’t included is a travesty

[sinistersarum]

Popeyes being #1 is ok with me. But KFC being this high is just feeling not right at all.

[kevinwhitehead]

I love Chick-fil-A and Popeyes but how in the world is Raising canes not on here!!

[corpseplague]

Zaxby's would have won. They're too good to be on this list.

Popeye's chicken tenders are The Best in my book. I remember when I was a kid I'd get a big order with BBQ sauce, honey, and sweet&sour sauce so I could have a dipping sauce buffet.

You can't get chicken fingers because chickens do not have fingers.

[kevinpennington]

'm not sure that this is a very good list without reviewing Raising Canes, Slim Chickens, and Zaxby's..

[seanvasconcellos]

How do you not have Raisin' Canes on this list.

[mrgss]

Cane's chicken belong in the top 3 easy.

[lokisgodhi]

Got to disagree. I've KFC and Popeye's tenders back to back. I find Popeye's bland. KFC's tenders are much much better.

[tonythomas]

Sorry, but I love long John silver's chicken planks

[scottschlossberg]

It's not fast food, but Publix tenders are 💥💯
