Since 1996, The Chicken Coop has been a local favorite and neighborhood staple for quality, home-style cooking at Newport Beach. The Jimenez family has since introduced a few signature Mexican dishes to the hearty American menu, like carnitas, chiles rellenos, and tortilla soup; and that's not all, classic Italian favorites have also found a home in our carte du jour.

At The Chicken Coop, our love for delicious food and the joy of bringing people together to share a meal is what keeps us inspired and dedicated to cooking up quality, flavorful, and filling dishes. Whether it's a full three-course meal, or just a quick stop for one of our signature cocktails, we take the time and care to ensure that there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Services
Our menu is as simple as they come and includes traditional dishes that will make for a tasty, delightful experience. Whether all you join us for is an appetizer or a drink or a full three-course meal, rest assured that you are in for flavorful and satisfying dishes.

Our Broasted Chicken, Oysters Rockefeller, Calamari and Steaks are just a few of the appetizing dishes on our extensive menu, which also boasts breakfast, appetizer, and salad options along with a variety of red and white wines, imported and domestic beers or mixed drinks to go along with your meal.All dinners are served with baked potato, vegetables and house salad tossed in any of our dressings.
This is an exceptional neighborhood place. Go for the food, the smile and wink with your service, and very reasonable pricing for drinks and food. Way more than chicken on this huge menu. I have been eating here for 10 years. I live only a few blocks away so it is a great place to take a walk and go have dinner.

Excellent service and food. Enjoyed the food very much. Cash only is the only bummer. Most people don’t carry cash anymore.

I had the potato cakes, two eggs and two pieces of bacon. The plate was so delicious! Best I've had out lately. It has a bar and plenty of seating, mostly booths which I prefer. I put my credit card on the table and quickly learned that The Chicken Coop is a cash only restaurant. Definitely worth it

This is a great little hidden gem. Food is fantastic and they have everything on the menu. And if they don't they'll make it for you anyway!

Unfortunately, the owner or manager seemed to be in a bad mood.
The appetizers we had would have been much better if the oil used to fry them had been fresher.
The drinks might have been better if the wait persons actually knew what brands they stocked in the bar - unless they were relying on the patrons not really knowing the taste difference on top shelf brands and just had cheep stuff.
No menus were ever offered so, available options are unknown. I was not buying so do not know the prices.
Perhaps, because they had a large party going, they did not care about serving a small group.
I wish

Food is decent, classic American diner style. Service is good. Portions are big, which matches the price. It is perfect for the older crowd that still enjoys the 'more is better' dinner experience.

It's a dive bar, but the service and food are excellent. I recommend the chicken fried pork chop. Be advised it is not a tenderized steak, it's a pork chop, and it's great! The biscuits and gravy are ok - the biscuits themselves are not homemade, but the gravy is. Even though it's a bar, kids are welcome if you are going there to dine.
