Here in Baltimore, Royal Farms has this chicken shit on lock. Open 24 hours too.





There are a few KFC's or Popeyes in the city (none downtown) but they don't stand a chance against RF.

Popeye's has better everything compared to KFC besides coleslaw and mac & cheese. Those two sides are straight up garbage at Popeye's.

Where I am, KFC is noticeably greasier and offer no spicy option, so no contest for Popeyes.

Popeyes is pretty good, but I like KFC better. If KFC had red beans and rice I would probably never go to Popeyes again.

Also, the KFC mashed potato bowl was sent from heaven.

One recent evening I had the craving for fried chicken so I called KFC but their order line was down. I was told to call my nearest location and they gave me the phone number. I called and had a really nice little chat with the person before giving my order. Man that chicken came lickity split, was piping hot, and was the best goddamned chicken I could remember having. I was actually giggling like some fool by the second piece.

I kept the location number and now will call direct every time. Consider it a pro-tip and try it for yourself!

No Popeyes around here, but I've had it a few times on the road and wasn't impressed. KFC extra crispy is an alright substitute because of their gravy alone.

There's a Chinese place close by my house that delivers. They have fried wings and drumsticks. But I'm not sure if that's exactly the same thing.

Mashed potatoes? Mac and Cheese? Poutine? What the fuck?

The UK gets so screwed over by KFC. We get a choice of chicken, chicken and BBQ chicken. We didn't even get the Double Down to satisfy my morbid curiosity.

Considering the only other fried chicken restaurant reasonably close to me was shut down when the health inspectors found rat shit at the bottom of the fryer, we don't have any other options either.

I think KFC vs Popeyes is just like asking someone what religion is the best. 99% of the time they'll say whatever one they grew up with. KFC pwns Popeyes so fucking bad in my book but everyone I know that was raised on Popeyes begs to differ. It kills me because I see more and more Popeyes opening up. If they close down KFC on 14th street and 2nd Ave they better arrest me shortly thereafter.

I'm gonna have to agree here. I grew up with Popeye's, and to me it is just the best shit ever.

I'm thinking KFC delivers in most every major North American city but I could be wrong. Perhaps places where the chain has reached a certain level of (hmm...) saturation.

Never had good chicken from Popeyes. At KFC, the chicken is decent about half the time. After decades of persistent disappointment I simply stopped getting fast food fried chicken.

Roy Rogers chicken was better than KFC. How about that business?

But KFC isn't so bad, as long as you go to one that doesn't suck. If the chicken is sitting in that glass oven thing for 15 minutes or so, prepare for a greasy and dry experience. And their biscuits are utter shit unless they've just been baked. Most times I end up with something with the consistency of a crumbly rock.

I hate Popeye's Chicken. Not a fan of KFC either.

My favorite place outside of Ritchie's spicy (A regional spot) is Lee's Famous Recipe. The famous recipe is largely salt, but it's so good.
