FAQs

Which is better KFC or Popeyes? ›

Popeyes beats KFC at every level – flavor, presentation, and brand experience. It's easy to see why Popeyes is stealing market share from KFC. Popeyes, hands down, is giving consumers a better product than KFC, with the prices virtually the same on most menu items.

The state with the most Popeyes locations is Texas, with 432 restaurants. This is about 14% of all Popeyes locations in the United States. The city with the most Popeyes locations is Houston, with 75 locations.

The Popeyes sandwich had an impressive amount of crunch to the fried chicken. It tasted great, and the mayo helped things from getting too dry with the bun involved. Chick-fil-A had less crunch and the combo of chicken and bread without some sort of sauce left things a little on the dry side.

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., also known as Popeyes and formerly named Popeyes Chicken & Biscuits and Popeyes Famous Fried Chicken & Biscuits, is an American multinational chain of fried chicken restaurants formed in 1972 in New Orleans, Louisiana and headquartered in Miami.

Benefits: While higher in fat and sodium, opting for the mild version instead of the spicy one can reduce sodium content. It's a good source of protein, which is essential for muscle health and satiety.

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen competitors include Darden Restaurants, KFC, Luby's, Long John Silver's and Burger King.

As it turns out, the very same Tyson Foods that manufactures our favorite dinosaur nuggets also manufactures chicken products for chains like Taco Bell, KFC, McDonald's, Burger King, Popeyes, and Chick-fil-A.

Indeed, Kalinowski Equity Research noted all the way back in 2018 that Chick-fil-A's biggest competitor is McDonald's and it's no wonder why the Golden Arches and seemingly every other QSR concept (and beyond) have since ignited a chicken sandwich war replicating the Atlanta-based chain's signature product.

Restaurant Brands International Inc. owns quick-service brands Burger King, Popeye's Louisiana Kitchen and Tim Hortons.

What did Popeyes used to be called? ›

Copeland Sr. opened the first Popeyes in the New Orleans suburb of Arabi back in 1972, he did it under a different name: Chicken on the Run. With a menu of traditional Southern-fried chicken, the restaurant struggled initially to attract customers or make its mark. Copeland, however, was not deterred.

We've all heard of Popeyes, or at least everyone I know personally has. They're the place with the chicken sandwich that broke the internet.

Throughout each day, our trained cooks freshly prepare fried chicken using the Colonel's Secret Recipe of 11 herbs & spices. It takes more than 25 minutes to hand bread and cook our chicken before it's ready for your bucket or boxed meal. That's why KFC has the world's best chicken.

While many dishes are high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium, many KFC meals can be enjoyed in moderation. Making a few swaps or adding more vegetables can help create a well-rounded meal.

McDonald's food its almost always highly processed. And although McDonald's has salads, KFC does have some fiber rich options in the BBQ baked beans and cole slaw, and some cooked vegetable options in green beans and corn on the cob.
