I'm living in New Orleans right now and I would still say Church's > KFC > Popeyes.
The biscuits from Popeyes are pretty good though, and their sweet tea, which is like pure sugar.

You do know Chrurch's always has that deal right? You walk in, pull up churchschickenbc.ca on your phone, scroll down to that coupon and show the cashier. No coupon, no cutting required.

Everything That company touches turns to shit. That microwaved cardboard they call food is not going to translate well to fried chicken. It should be illegal to serve that fucking crap they call a breakfast sandwich at Tim Hortons.

To derail the thread even further.............. I can't wait to see this become a reality.

High speed train proposed between Portland and Vancouver - British Columbia - CBC News

I know it would never happen, but I'd be all over that. Only if seniors rates apply, Gulolol.


BTW, has anyone been to Seattle or Portland via Amtrak's Cascadia?

Same, sometimes on my way back from Superstore I can't help but place an order. Not as good as Churches but for the price it's hard to beat, made fresh every time too so shits piping hot.

You guys do realise for a business where 6% profit margin is considered exceptional, one has to leverage economy of scale aggressively to please everyone from employees to investors. Chicken is probably one commodity US over produces (ever wonder why friend chicken is everywhere in places like Korea?)..make sense for QSR to go into that market.

Yet every drive thru is constantly wrapped around the building. I don't get it, I know it's cheap but is that all that matters anymore, or do some people actually think their food is good?

I am not really a fried chicken fan any more. But I remember back in college, whenever I had that sudden rush of craving for fried chicken, I'd just go with friend to uncle willy's and KO myself with it.

Unlimited fried chicken (you have to go about 30min after opening when they bring out the fresh batch, it's at least as good as KFC) dipped in curry sauce for 10 bucks.

Let's face it, when you're a laboring slob smoking a cigarette in your dirty coveralls, you probably don't care about the quality of your food. All you care about is "salty and greasy". At least this is what I see from my travels in Port Kells, to Calgary, all the way to Anjou, Quebec. I see more Chevy trucks in the line up than I do Benzes. Maybe that's just because I spend more time in industrial areas?

I'll get my coffee from Tim's these days, but they're not getting any other business from me. Maybe a muffin? It's hard to screw up a muffin. That said, if there is a McDonalds around I'll go there for a coffee. It's cheap, hot, and doesn't taste like burning.

Timmies is also big around hospitals basically places where staff need a cheap caffeine fix. I know plenty of surgeons that prefer Tim's than others. (not to mention most Tim's are open 24 hours), quite an advantage when it is 4AM and you just wrapped in the OR.

The advantage of Timmies have over other places like Starbucks is they have been around longer (continuously and not boom bust cycle), so they have got a lot more strategically located places in their porfolio.

I used to live around there . Enjoyed the food though. Long lineups and high prices compared to KFC.

The area has cleaned up but has Richmond like traffic and retardation.

I'd love Chik-fil-a to come here but I imagine there would be backlash because it's a *gasp* Christian company! However, it's harder to operate as a franchise compared to other fast food chains so it would take one dedicated mofo to open one up here.

I had Church's chicken today. Ordered a 2pc combo, fries, and an orange crush.
I was flirting with the gal behind the till, and she gave me an extra drum stick for free.

More often than not, when I asked for extra at the Churches on Hastings they give you an extra piece or 2 depending what you order. I've only tried this during late night after going out.
