The Story of Harold’s Chicken Shack

The Story of Harold’s Chicken Shack

In 1950, Harold P. Pierce had a vision—one that would change the way people enjoyed fried chicken forever. He believed in serving good food, building a strong community, and creating opportunities for others. More than 70 years later, Harold’s Chicken Shack continues to thrive, a testament to his hard work and dedication.

Harold’s Chicken Shack isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a legacy. It started as a simple idea—to serve 'chicken the way you like it'—and grew into a family-owned business that has stood the test of time. Located at 1095 E Ridge Rd, Griffith, IN, we carry on Harold’s mission of fresh, made-to-order Southern fried chicken, keeping his dream alive with every meal we serve.
