Roaming Rooster DC

Roaming Rooster is a Washington, D.C. chicken restaurant known for buttermilk fried chicken sandwiches, chicken strips and wings, with hand-cut fries, house-made vinaigrette slaw and frozen custard milkshakes on the side. The chicken is grain-fed, free-range, antibiotic-free and halal, and all menu items are halal except the bacon on the club sandwich and as an add-on. The business started as a food truck around 2015 and now runs brick-and-mortar locations as well as trucks.

All sandwiches come with a heat level choice, from no heat up to hot. Breakfast biscuits are served weekly from 8 AM to 11 AM at select locations. Roaming Rooster also takes catering and private event requests for D.C. and nearby parts of Maryland and Virginia, and food truck schedules are posted on social media. Its U Street Northwest address is the location listed for the restaurant.
