Is KFC cheaper than Popeyes? ›

At KFC, a four-piece fried chicken combo meal with mashed potatoes and a biscuit cost $12.69. At Popeyes, a four-piece combo with mashed potatoes and a biscuit cost $13.99. A classic chicken sandwich at Popeyes was $5.49. The same sandwich at KFC was $5.29.

The KFC chicken had more of a homemade feel to it than the Popeyes chicken. But, even though the KFC chicken has significantly more sodium, the flavor of the Popeyes chicken was much more powerful and well rounded. I tasted lots of black pepper in the KFC spice blend, but honestly not much else.

Indeed, Kalinowski Equity Research noted all the way back in 2018 that Chick-fil-A's biggest competitor is McDonald's and it's no wonder why the Golden Arches and seemingly every other QSR concept (and beyond) have since ignited a chicken sandwich war replicating the Atlanta-based chain's signature product.

At McDonald's, the crispy chicken sandwich has since been renamed the McCrispy. It is described as a "southern-style fried chicken sandwich" with crinkle-cut pickles and a toasted, buttered potato roll.

Do people like Popeyes Chicken? ›

I like the texture, price and the size of the pieces when I order. In addition their sides are fantastic (my favorite being the red beans and rice). I like Popeye's when it's fresh out the fryer. The chicken has good flavor and the red beans and rice are good too.

Copeland Sr. opened the first Popeyes in the New Orleans suburb of Arabi back in 1972, he did it under a different name: Chicken on the Run.
