Clappy Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 http://www.buzzfeed.com/venessawong/chick-fil-a-moves-up-qsr-50?utm_term=.rhK2X6VJ3P#.rsg2pGQMRO Found this interesting article on Buzzfeed which goes into detail showing the ten most successful restaurants of 2014 and how much each company earned revenue wise and per store. As you can tell, McDonald's still made the most money if you just primarily look at the numbers based off of the first column. However, look down at number 8 and see how successful Chick-Fil-A is doing right now. That's pretty damn impressive that it earns the highest revenue per store by nearly 500 million over the rest of it's competitors with not even two thousand locations nationwide. Also doing impressive numbers despite not having as many locations opened is Panera Bread. What I'm trying to get at is I feel like the fast food landscape is evolving. Imagine what could possibly happen over our lifetimes if franchises like Chick-Fil-A and Panera keep providing high quality fast food and expand to more stores. I know it's crazy to think this, but we could possibly see McDonald's dethroned as the nation's largest fast food franchise. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanideFishbone Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Of course McDonalds is gonna stay at the top (but you never know what the future could bring) because, man, McDonalds is a fast food empire. It's everywhere. I hope Chick Fil A rises to the top. I love Chick Fil A. It has great customer service and it's usually always packed. I hate Panera Bread on the other hand.

Katniss Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 If Chik-fil-a and Panera can keep their level of quality food as they become more popular, then I can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cowboy Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I'd be fine with McDonald's being dethroned as the top food chain, heck it can go back down to the dark pit from which it came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanideFishbone Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 If Chik-fil-a and Panera can keep their level of quality food as they become more popular, then I can't complain. I don't think I've ever had a bad customer service experience or a bad meal ever at Chick Fil A. On a side note: Is that Sunohara from Clannad in your profile photo?

4EverGreen Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 It's interesting to note that despite Subway having more than TWICE the number of operating restaurants in the U.S. as McDonalds, in terms of the average amount of money pulled in at each Subway compared to the average amount of money at each McDonalds, Subway's numbers isn't even 20% of McDonalds! Just breaking it down for people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E.V.I.L. Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I hate McDonalds so I am 100% okay with this. If only it were Chipotle at top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estonia Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 If chick-fil-a will stop pushing their idiotic thoughts on Gay Marriage and be open on Sundays than I would probably eat there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I want more business for Subway and Chick-Fil-A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Car Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Chick-fil-a has grown on me in the last few years and I pretty much got no complaints ever. Also McDonalds is trash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Sejima Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I really need more Chick-Fil-A tbh, never heard of Panera Bread before, not around here I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyanideFishbone Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Honestly I'm kind of indifferent towards the controversy for Chick-Fil-A. Yeah it's bad but they make some damn good fried chicken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EverGreen Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I don't DIG fast food companies that openly BASH on people who AREN'T straight! No Chick-Fil-A for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
