Guthrie’s Chicken Fingers, simply called Guthrie’s, was founded in 1965 in Haleyville, Alabama, by Hal Guthrie. The company operates a chain of franchised chicken restaurants. Guthrie originally focused on Southern style food, but found that his fried chicken “fingers” were his most popular food item. He changed his focus to chicken in 1978.
The company is one of the first restaurants to sell chicken strips, commonly referred to as chicken fingers. Guthrie’s is also know for Texas Toast, and a secret family recipe for coleslaw and dipping sauce. The company currently has more than 27 locations, most of them in the Southern part of the US. Franchising began in 2005. A franchise was recently opened in Kentucky in late 2015.
Guthrie’s is still operated by the Guthrie family. The company is actively seeking franchises to open up locations in other parts of the country.

I recently just got fired from the Guthrie’s on Pepperell parkway, and I have no idea why. The GM there is very unprofessional. I came to work everyday, I put out hot fresh food everyday, I always worked more than 6 days straight, I never walked out, never did anything wrong or said anything wrong. So I don’t understand. No employee worked more or even harder than me. Every employee there are on their phones, don’t do things the “Guthrie’s way”, one has walked out on a shift leader, most of them are late everyday, but all these employees are still there. I really need this handled or I’m suing for discrimination. Cause I am a boyish gay female. Thank you.

Correction: Pepperell parkway in Opelika AL. And also, I got fired through a text message and had no knowledge of this before hand. And right after the GM sent the text, she blocked me. I have proof and witnesses to all this! Very unprofessional of her.

Stopped into the Mineola Pike location on a Friday 4/15, after receiving order young woman working drive-through did not return debit card. Called location next day at 440pm was informed location was closing at 5pm and I could pick up my card Monday. No one willing to stay for a bit so I could pick up my card and have it for the weekend. Because the card was in the posession of someone I don’t know for an extended period i’m going to have to canel my card and have a new one issued.

Huge fan of Guthrie’s but the service at the Shug Jordan Parkway store is absolutely horrible. The kids who work there are rude and one girl is wearing long nails, which is an OSHA violation. I had to go inside after leaving the drive-through to get the drinks i ordered and when i got home there were NO FRIES IN MY COMBO. This is ridiculous and I want to be compensated for missing fries and rude employees.
