A quick-service fried chicken restaurant chain headquartered in Mountain Brook, Alabama, Chester's restaurants can typically be found attached to travel plazas and gas stations or inside mall food courts. In addition to wings and chicken sandwiches, Chester’s also serves fried livers and gizzards.

Chester's got its name from a character on the television show “Gunsmoke,” which was a favorite program of the brand's founder, W.O. Giles. Giles opened his first restaurant in 1965. The chain began franchising in 2004.
