View Full Version : What's so great about Chick-Fil-A?
Not talking about what's been going on lately, but I went there a couple months back because I always see lines there, and honestly the food was good but not great, nothing I'd wait in a line for.
So what's so great about Chick-Fil-A?

Not a clue. I went a couple years ago out of curiosity, because New Orleans is the first place I've ever lived that had one, but I thought it was completely uninspiring. Whatever the appeal, it's lost on me.
But, then, I don't generally like fast food much, so it probably didn't have much of a chance of impressing me to begin with.

I liked their spicy chicken sandwich... the waffle fries are good, and the lemonade is excellent. Kind of pricey for fast food though.

there fries are amazing, the sandwiches are pretty good, and apparently it's a good place to take the kids because they love it and they all have an indoor playground
Kind of pricey for fast food though.
wtf? The regular combo (chicken sandwich, fries, and drink) is around $7, maybe less. What fast food meal (not value menu) is cheaper?

I don't eat chicken nuggets or those breaded chicken sandwiches anywhere, but I like their Chargrilled Chicken Salad a lot. The chicken is pretty nondescript, but the veggies are always fresh and crisp, the croutons and sunflower seeds are tasty; definitely the best fast food salad.

x2 Joe. rather go to a decent Chinese buffet that PFC. Chinese cooking has the ability to make crappy pieces of meat taste pretty good. It's why it's been hard for a Chinese medium quality chain to stay in business. China Coast as an example.

I think Church's southern style chicken are pretty good. Better than the McDonald ones imo.

sure...but it's not better than CFA
the only chicken sandwich I might choose over CFA is the Whataburger one where they fry the shit out of three tenders, stick cheese and barbecue sauce on it, and put it on buttery Texas Toast. But at that point, it's not about the chicken.

I was gonna mention Whataburger earlier when I said I don't eat those breaded chicken sandwiches-----I once had one of their breakfast "honey butter chicken biscuit" and that thing was delish and absolutely SINFUL! Definitely wasn't about the chicken at all!

why you not gwana eat there no moe?
Tbh not sure what people expect from a fast food chicken place but it's not bad, unless you're gay and/or butthurt. Their marriage comments were stupid to acknowledge but then I get cynical/lazy and think: if only the average customer feigned as much outrage about where all the lobbying $$$ goes...plenty of other Chick-Fil-A's out there if you follow the money, probably anyway :downspin:

Cheaper than $7? Pretty much every combo meal at KFC, Taco Bell, Jack in the Box, McDonalds, Arby's, In and Out, Wendy's, Taco Bueno... Hell, you can get 2 entrees, rice and a drink at Panda Express for about that much, if I remember correctly.

Ok, NP.
I guess I just expected it to be better than anywhere else because they're always so busy.
I don't know if McDonald's still makes it but they used to make a chicken sandwich that was chicken, a bun, and I think a couple of pickle slices, and it was pretty damn good, definitely better than what I got from CFA.
I think it's the "Southern Style Crispy Chicken Sandwich"
The Waffle fries are good, but not better than really fresh McDonald's fries. I also like Jack In The Box seasoned curly fries better, and the shoe string fries from Freddy's too.
Whataburger could make their fries out of dirt and I'd still like them better because of the ketchup.

Jack in the Box

It's not just that they're NOT going to it, it's that they want to be so outspoken about it because of ONE mans opinion! As for the people waiting in the 108 degree heat, they weren't the ones who reacted first. I agree that it was an overreaction to the first overreaction, but I also believe that plenty of them were there to send a message to assholes like the mayors of San Fran, Chicago, and Boston

I had a dream last night that I went to Chik-Fil-A, and that they only had 4-piece nuggets available. They said if you wanted an 8-piece, you had to buy two 4-pieces (well at least math still works in my dreams). They also offered me a beer, and my bill ended up coming out to $32.
It's probably just because Chik-Fil-A has been in the news so much, since I haven't been in probably a year or two....but still, dreams are fuckin' weird.
Cool story, I know.
