CFA is the go to for our family. clean restrooms, speedy & friendy service and tasty food. or i could go to mcdonalds and be treated like shite.


I will take a 3rd option


Waffle House where I can get steak and eggs 24 / 7 / 365 with women closer to my age serving me so we can commiserate about kids on our lawns. Bert's chill is not the best but at least it is consistent from store to store and I can get it with grits and bacon as sides. CFA is great if you want chicken or at least chicken shaped stuff but I think that is to limiting to have a single item based menu.

Wonder what the sales numbers would be if Sunday were factored in

I have an atheist friend who insists that their being closed on Sundays is them forcing religion on their employees. I told him to work a month in fast food and see how badly you'd want a set weekend day off, guaranteed.

I think it's ok. The chicken biscuits are good. The fries are shite and everything else is just ok.

Idk, maybe growing up in ATL spoiled me, it's been around since I was a kid. Also would eat it at the LSU union and it was always just meh.

The lemonade & shakes are legit at CFA. The chicken is highly overrated.

I like Chick-fil-A, but I wish they had better coffee. McDonald's coffee is so much better.


People go to Chik-Fil-A for food and service. They go to McDonald’s for coffee and ice cream (oh wait).

Their coffee really does suck. They responded to complaints and changed it and it still sucks. Kind of surprising they can't get that right because they pretty much nail everything else.

McDonalds does about $22B in sales in the US with 8x the number of stores and open 7 days a week for far more hours.



I expect McDonalds to be #1.
Burger King has 7xs as many stores as chick fil a and only did $1.65B last year

Crazy that consumers respond positively to a fast food place that provides good service, when the service consists of listening to someone, telling them the amount and to drive forward, taking their money, and then giving them their food.
Many times i don't feel like eating Chick Fil A, and would love to go through Taco Bell's drive thru, but i could get my food faster and in a more friendlier way from Chick Fil A when there's 15 cars in line, than if there was no line at Taco Bell. No i don't want to drive forward to wait for my fricking food. There's no one behind me.

I wonder what the overlap is of people who laugh at Chick-fil-A outrage and people who said they were going to boycott the NFL or Nike because if the kneeling and Kaepernick.

Similar to the "stand for the flag kneel for the cross" demographic.
