The Chicken Sandwich Hunt Ends Here
If you live in Northern Colorado, you already know we take our food seriously. Between craft beer, locally roasted coffee, and farm-fresh eats, this region is spoiled for choice when it comes to flavor. But when the craving hits for a crispy, juicy chicken sandwich, there’s one place that stands out from the crowd: Comet Chicken.
With locations in both Fort Collins and Loveland, Comet Chicken has become a go-to spot for anyone who loves great food served in a casual atmosphere that’s truly out of this world. From classic comfort to bold global flavors, our menu was built to deliver crispy perfection with a side of fun.
A Sandwich for Every Craving
Our sandwiches all start the same way: with fresh, never-frozen Redbird chicken, raised cage-free in Colorado without antibiotics or added hormones. Each tender is rested before processing, hand-breaded in-house, and fried to crispy perfection—or grilled if you’re looking for a lighter option. From there, we let the flavor combinations do the talking, and you can explore every option on our full menu.
- The Original Chicken Sandwich is where it all began. It’s simple, straightforward, and downright addictive: golden tenders layered with our house sauce and a stack of crunchy pickles. It proves that when the chicken is this good, you don’t need a dozen toppings to make it shine.
- If you’re the type who likes a little zing, the Buffalo Sandwich is the tangy, messy, totally crave-worthy upgrade. Tenders tossed in our classic buffalo sauce, topped with creamy blue cheese and crisp power slaw—it’s got the heat, the crunch, and the cool bite that makes buffalo a forever favorite.
- Then there’s the Nashville Hot Sandwich, which is all about bold, smokey heat. Our exclusive dry rub was made just for Comet Chicken, so you won’t find this exact flavor anywhere else in Northern Colorado. Piled high with pickles and power slaw, this one is for the spice-seekers who like their sandwiches with a kick.
- For something a little heartier, the Club layers crispy tenders with bacon, house sauce, power slaw, and pickles. It’s a sandwich that doesn’t mess around—the kind you order when you want lunch to carry you through an afternoon hike, a long workday, or a CSU game day.
- One of our most unique creations is the Banh Mi Sandwich, inspired by the Vietnamese classic. We take our tenders and pile them with cucumbers, pickled vegetables, cilantro, spicy Thai sauce, and a drizzle of sriracha mayo. It’s fresh, bright, and bold—perfect if you’re craving something outside the ordinary.
- And finally, the Green Chile Bandit Bird pays homage to one of Colorado’s favorite flavors: roasted green chiles. We pair green chile tenders with tomatillo cream cheese, bacon, and jalapeños. It’s creamy, spicy, smoky, and hands-down one of the most popular sandwiches we serve.
The Comet Chicken Difference
What sets our sandwiches apart isn’t just the recipes, but the philosophy behind them. We believe in keeping things fresh, local, and humanely raised. That’s why we source chicken from Redbird Farms right here in Colorado. No antibiotics. No added hormones. No weird preservatives. Just high-quality chicken raised with care.
We also believe that great chicken deserves equally great sides and sauces. That’s why we make our slaw, sauces, and dips in-house every single day. Whether you’re dunking your sandwich in ranch, BBQ, or one of our signature creations, you’ll taste the difference.
