Since 1950, Harold’s Chicken has been a Chicago staple, particularly on the South Side of Chicago, and is well known for its uniquely fried chicken and special “Mild Sauce”. Our founder, Harold Pierce, an African-American Chicago Business Man, developed the character of Harold’s primarily out of necessity because the larger fast food chains tended to avoid the African-American neighborhoods in the city of Chicago. At that time, the legal and social obstacles in Chicago prevented Harold’s and other black-owned businesses from expanding into the downtown Chicago area and the North Side area of Chicago. As a result, Harold’s became one of the few examples of a thriving fast food chain that was owned by, and primarily served, the Chicago African-American Community. Now Harolds has opened a location here in Charlotte with the same great food! Located at 440 E. McCullough Drive, Harold's is serving up their Chicago style dishes seven day a week.
