Federal Donuts is a local chain of
(so far two) small restaurants that serves, coffee, donuts, and… fried chicken.
It is part of a larger chain of restaurants under the name of Cook n Solo. Federal Donuts is clearly popular among the hipster crowd of
downtown Philly. It has a very limited menu: coffee, fried chicken with three
different rubs and sauces and about four different types of donuts.
I get a Fried
Chicken Sandwich ($6.75) and a Lemon Meringue Donut ($2.50). The sandwich is
small but has a big chunk of delicious fried chicken on a soft potato roll with
lettuce, tomato and a spicy sauce. Very tasty! The donut is thick but a bit
dry; the lemon meringue is tangy.
VERDICT: 89/100
The attraction is
partly in the hipster setting, but both the chicken and the donuts are original
and tasty.
