Yes, we still have fried chicken and funnel cakes along with all other food! Get down to the Town park in Grottoes... there's no line for food and fun stuff for the family!
Chicken is excellent!
My son-in-law went straight to Grottoes from Harrisonburg when he got off work at 6:00. I sure did enjoy the chicken Rick- Thank You so much <3 It was delicious, as always.
Best chicken 🐓
