There’s talk of a fast food backlash, but I don’t know. McDonalds is certainly hurting; Millennials just don’t want to go there. Others are doing OK, however, and it’s not just the new upstarts. Old warhorses like Dairy Queen are getting excellent scores in public opinion.
A recent survey asked 10,000 people to rate fast food chains, and here are the top 20 achievers for 2015:
- Chick-fil-A
- Papa John’s
- Dairy Queen
- Panera Bread
- Subway
- Sonic Drive-In
- Dunkin’ Donuts
- Pizza Hut
- Popeye’s
- Taco Bell
- Starbucks
- Chipotle Mexican Grill
- Wendy’s
- Arby’s
- Little Caesar’s
- Domino’s
- Panda Express
- KFC
- Burger King
- Hardees
It’s a pretty tight spread, with #1 Chick-fil-A earning 82% satisfaction, and #20 Hardees earning 72. By the way, McDonalds was in 21st place. Of course, your mileage will vary. Asking folks to describe their feelings is a pretty subjective thing!
How about you? Does this look like a good list? Any of your favorites missing? Any here surprise you? Let us know over at the MindField Online Facebook page, and have a great weekend!
On the question of what FAST FOOD places are the best, we like GOOD Times Burgers, in COLORADO once in a while. They have the best good burgers and their chicken fingers are the best of anywhere–not too overdone. They are fried so I don’t go there too often. Their ice cream deserts like their Oregon Blackberry Frozen Yogurt is great too.
