arkansas quality chicken since 1947
an arkansas staple, IS BACK.
For almost 80 years, AQ Chicken served up its world famous chicken over-the-coals and became an Arkansas legend. While the doors closed earlier this year, we’re thrilled to say that AQ is OPEN. We are excited to welcome back this Arkansas staple in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, the same setting that made AQ a gathering place for families and friends for generations.
We are not taking reservations or to go orders at this time.

ABOUT
LIKE AQ, OUR FAMILY HAS CALLED SPRINGDALE HOME FOR GENERATIONS.Locally owned companies are the lifeblood of a community, representing a rich tapestry of entrepreneurship and innovation. Locally owned by Tom and Robin Lundstrum and Jacob and Gracie Lively, we are proud to call Northwest Arkansas home for over 40 years.
AQ Chicken is so much more than just fried chicken. For some people, it was their childhood. For some, it was a 40+ year career at a place that became home, for many it was their first meal after they were married, annual birthday dinners and so much more. It’s been passed from generation to generation.
Our family considers ourselves not only owners, but stewards of the brand for Springdale and Arkansas. There have been owners before us, and one day, owners after us. Right now, it is our honor to keep the tradition and memories alive for this generation.
