I mean, if you don't mind/know about the bigotry, it's pretty fuckin good chicken. And their waffle fries are good too. Haven't eaten there in years and I do miss the food. But it's still a hard no for me.
But is it "wait a fucking half hour or more in a god damned drive through" good? Fuck no it isn't.
The streamlined menu makes it so the line goes pretty fast.
Even when it's around the building it'll only take 10 min.
Evidently some people value their time less or the chicken more.
I've only been to CFA a few times, but even with lines wrapped around the building I don't think I've ever waited longer than 10 minutes. Burger King is regularly that long of a wait and I was actually stuck waiting 20 minutes at McDonald's last week (they asked me to pull up and pretty sure they forgot about me.) I try to plan ahead and not rely so much on fast food, but as much time as I spend in my car driving for work, I'm usually stopping somewhere 1-2x a week.
They usually have double lanes and are taking orders throughout the line as shown above, the lines always long but seldom slow.
That said fuck bigot-chicken
I've never waited more than 16ish min for food, and that is an extremely long wait for them. It is always super fast, so idk where you are pulling this 1 hour long wait time stuff from unless you are talking about their opening weekends for new ones.
In this hypothetical scenario, are there options other than McDonald's to choose from? :-P
People turn everything so political. Is it worth waiting 1/2 for it? In my opinion no. I don’t boycott their product. I just don’t understand the obsession with it. It’s a chicken sandwich
It’s not that good anymore. IMO Wendy’s chicken is better nowadays
Popeyes spicy chicken is so much better than either.
And you can get red beans and rice
But then their fries are freaking disgusting.
Is the chicken even that good?, no way they don't come from a CAFO. Stressed out chicken meat taste like water to me.
Idk what the hell everyone else is talking about. Their chicken has always been great. When i get chicken from other fast food places its always hit or miss, and even on their best day, it's as good as chick fil a on one of their average days. Hell, I've never had a dry or overcooked or small portion of chicken from them, and they always pay their workers well.
It's isn't good chicken though. It's not 2003. Every fast food place has better chicken now.
I found the food greasy and unsettling, but I live in a large city full of better options. I guess I can get why people in a small town may miss it.
