When we are looking for good food in St. Paul, one of our favorite places to go to is Raising Canes. They have arguably the best fast food chicken, and an amazing lemonade as well. If we can’t agree on a restaurant to go to, we always know that Canes will end up being our destination.
Our favorite thing to get from Canes is the three chicken finger meal which includes three chicken fingers, one piece of perfectly toasted Texas toast, crinkle cut fries and their signature sauce called Canes Sauce. This meal is a 10/10 because the sauce adds so much delicious flavor to both the fries and the chicken and even the toast. The only thing that is bad about this meal is that it doesn’t come with enough sauce. If it came with two sauce cups, that would be the perfect amount. This meal is affordable with a price of $9.23 and will keep you full throughout the day.
The box combo is another menu item at Raising Canes that we really enjoy. This one is slightly more expensive at a price of $10.99 and includes all the items in the three finger combo and more. It includes four chicken fingers, crinkle cut fries, one piece of Texas toast, a container of coleslaw, as well as a fountain drink. This meal is still pretty affordable and has a good price for the amount of food you are getting. This meal is our second favorite out of all the meal combos at Raising Canes but we would still rate this meal a 10/10.
When deciding which Canes to go to in our area, we agree that our favorite location is the one in Rosedale. This Canes has some of the best service, and their food is always served fresh and hot. We have been there countless times, and never get tired of it. We usually both order the three finger chicken meal, because you can never go wrong with it. Neither of us have ever had a bad experience at this Canes, and agree that it is very convenient, because it has not only a sit down space, but a drive through as well. If you are in a rush, it’s the perfect place to stop to grab a quick substantial meal.
Another great Canes location in the area is the one on Lake Street, in Minneapolis. This location has a drive through like the one in Rosedale, making it another great place to go if you don’t want to get out of your car in this cold weather. This location also has great service, and their employees make your experience very fun. Last time we stopped at this Canes, the employee in the drive through had made his own jingle for the restaurant and sang it to us. He said “Yo yo yo can I get you some chicken to go?” This made us laugh, and enjoy our food even more, because we were having a great time. Either of these locations are great, and we would definitely recommend stopping in.
What we are trying to say is that we think if you like chicken, Canes is the place to go. They have the basics, and meet all our needs, and probably yours too. Our only recommendation is to order extra sauce, because you will want to put it on everything! Of course, we would give Cane’s chicken a rating of 10/10, and we would never get sick of it!
