Who did you prefer?
Comment Below 😀
Prefer a KFC always! 😂 KFCs in Spain still use the original McDonalds which really ads to the meal.
Popeye's looked the best to me can't wait to try it.
KFC but the burger at popeyes looks so good but over all I'll say KFC. I gotta try popeyes
Popeye's 👍 🤤🤤
KFC! KFC! KFC!
That last Popeye's combo bite was your most outrageous yet! Insane 😵💫
It was amazing!
Love these vids! How do you keep in such good shape!!👍👍👍👍
3:05 "These are one of my favourite things, they never fail to disappoint" 😉
I meant to say they never disappoint lol
Popeyes by far...
Glad to see you tried my idea
KFC is better, bigger pieces tried popeyes and they include small pieces in their too
@@hogman3543 KFC IS FLAVORLESS AND EXPENSIVE COMPARE TO POPEYES
NOBODY GOES TO KFC ANYMORE IT'S EITHER POPEYES OR CHICK-FIL-A HERE IN AMERICA
YOU SEE A KFC IN AMERICA IT'S MOSTLY EMPTY
Well done for asking who makes the BETTER fried chicken . Many other vlogers when comparing only two establishments erroneously say BEST . impressed .
Looks like you enjoyed all that EIE! Both looked good pops looked a bit crispier, is the gravy any different though the chips looked better at pops! I'm sure other viewers as well are interested to know your name can't keep calling you EIE! Combo bite was great!! What a great vid again!!
The gravy at Popeyes had cajun flavouring in it so it was a bit more spicy and smokey
I love your honest food comparison
Can you please do a wimpy 🍔 comparison with any other burger chain of your choice
Thanks
KFC in the UK is VERY hit or miss... I go knowing it could be nice or nasty.. Nasty for me is usually sweaty chicken cold chips and very very slow service...
Popeyes in Cardiff is new, I love Popeyes when I go to visit my son in the USA and ALWAYS get some landing and going home to the UK from Jaxsonville. Its great service, always flavoursome and zero concerns.. The Cardiff wine had a high bar to meet and while it wasn't as great in terms of super friendly service (but definitely NOT awful) the food had a little less flavour than the USA chain.
But by a country mile, Popeys SMASHES KFC in all food departments.. I don't mind paying the extra. Welcome to the UK Popeyes
You should try Sams fried chicken. They’re usually found in London and a few stores in the Midlands.
Without doubt the best chicken chain in the UK now is Wingstop! 👍
I don't think I've heard of wingstop, I'll have to try them out sometime
I will have to Google that thank you 🙏
Yeah I had it yesterday on Charing cross road very tasty and moorish.
They never fail to disappoint??
Yes KFC hot wings, I think he meant to say the opposite
I meant to say the opposite lol
Another great food journey! I’ve never been a fan of KFC, except for their coleslaw. I’ve never tried Popeyes but will now. The chicken sandwich was wildly popular when it debuted here in the USA and people waited in long lines to buy one.
Side note: biscuits are delicious when made properly and often served with honey and butter.
I wish more places did biscuits here in the UK as I really like them
Good to watch your vid, your appreciation of the meals was apparent.
Personally I would go for the Popeyes. I’ve never tried their food. The kfc meal looked delicious also.
You should definitely give Popeyes a go, its worth a try for sure
Great review as always. Popeye's chips looked rock.
The seasoning they had on them was really tasty
The KFC hot wings "never fail to disappoint"? Unintentionally accurate? They're both absurdly overpriced, but that's what's happened to all fast food as the companies merrily use 10% inflation to raise their prices by 20-30%.
wow they both look amazing
They tasted amazing too
Awesome Video-
KFC remains unsurpassable for me!
it does depend on the piece of chicken they give you. you do not always get a good size piece.
@@davidsworld5837 I concur that the size and day-to-day quality of the chicken served can vary.
However, I believe that the supposition of the KFC branding is what truly makes it unsurpassable.
I’ve only had popeyes once but it was fresh, hot, tasted really nice and I got so much I couldn’t even finish it all, contrasted with the last few times I’ve had kfc where the coating has admittedly been as tasty as ever but overall the chicken was just not nice with weird grey bits in (no not just the dark meat I mean the main white meat has big grey spots in it where it wouldn’t usually be) and otherwise just really fatty and greasy , and they usually forget something like last time they missed out my sweetcorn, leaving me feeling ripped off and like I shouldn’t have bothered, so it’s definitely popeyes for me, though maybe I need to go to your local kfc and try that instead!!
I think it can sometimes depend on if the chicken is fresh out of the fryer or been left out for a bit
What is it with KFC missing something off your order. Must be company policy or something. 😂
3:08 ‘They never fail to disappoint’ ? 😅
You're mocking me now with the gravy! 😅 Definitely Popeyes looked more appealing all round. Think offering mac 'n cheese is a great idea, and the biscuit and cajun sauce. But you're going to turn into a piece of fried chicken soon! 😂 #SoJealous 😋
I would be happy if I did lol 😀
Nice video and a good ‘ heads up’ for the bigger eaters.. I’d have to cut the burger out…😂👍
Chickanos does the best chicken and better hot wings than kfc! They have a few branches around the uk!
Never fails to disappoint???
I spotted that too. I’m guessing he meant ‘never disappoints’ 😂
@@unysis212 agree mate 👍
I think I may have got the phrase wrong lol
You should have tried the red beans and rice, now that is Cajun.
Popeyes looked like the winner. It was 50% more expensive than KFC though. Good review!
but there was items on popeyes plate not on kfc plate. mac and cheese £3 and the biscult. £1
there did not seem an equal number of items. and some item like the gravy look larger than the kfc version.
so that may make popeyes meal look far more money
It was not really about the price on this one, I just wanted to try out as much as I could really from each place
Hi. What do you do with all the food that you don´t eat that is left on the plate ?.
I normally eat all of it lol
"Never fails to disappoint"? I don't think you meant that.
I did not haha, i meant the opposite
Popeye's chicken looks like some kind of alien creature that fell into an industrial cornflakes vat.
Hello EIE.
I love Popeyes. They have the best chicken and sides. I live in America, so we are spoiled. I could eat biscuits e every day. The fries are super, and the gravy delicious. I think you will become a regular. Thank you for the vlogs and your time😊😊😊😊
I definitely think I will become a regular, they're great
Not having gravy in kfc is like wearing a grim reaper costume in a old ppls home. U just don't do it. 😅 never been to popeyes so wouldnt know about there. Haha. Glad to see it on ya platter though. Its like liquid gold.
Popeyes is definitely superior. You should try the biscuit with jam or honey.
Popeyes gravy give it the win for me 😊
The gravy was amazing! 😋
I love KFC but I’ve never tried pop eyes both meals looked delicious 😋 and value for money so it’s so hard to decide on because I’ve not tried pop eyes I hope they get more restaurants in the uk 🇬🇧 and I might try it one day
Popeyes is definitely worth a try, I think the chicken is better
Slim Chickens is also quite a good place for fried chicken. Portions can be big. 😎
Thats on my list for sure
I know you ordered extras at KFC but £15! Crazy prices. I always use the KFC app to get the deals, otherwise you are getting ripped off. Popeyes looks good but my concern is Popeyes using food sourced from the US and therefore having it loaded with lots of additives, preservatives and E numbers that are banned in Europe. I saw the ingredients list on the side of the mac and cheese and it looked huge. Plus £22 for Popeyes is disgusting.
Welcome to Brexit!
@@pianoman5586got sod all to do with it, change the record ffs!!!
there was extra item not on the kfc meal. like biscult and mac and cheese. but there were size / portion size differences that could balance the prices off.
@@darkvader7231 that and the current wars around the world
Popeyes does look good. But KFC is a lot cheaper... I love a zinger tower burger from KFC..
The Zinger tower burger is great! I always tower up the burger at KFC
@@everydayimeating3407 me too 😊😊
I love KFC, but gravy really is a gift from god, and not just KFC gravy.
Both gravy's were really good 😋
KFC used to be great, I fear before most people reading this were alive. Now... enh. The very best fried chicken I've had in a long time was from the dirt cheap local grocery store deli. But now I live in the chicken producing capital of the United States (NW Arkansas) so I can... not find good fried chicken for love or money. Sigh.
It is like living in a fishing town and there not being a single decent fish and chips shop.
I had not been to KFC in a very long time but visited recently. The chicken was lovely but wasn't impressed with the chips. I much preferred the ones they used to do. I know it is more common these days but I don't like skin on chips. Yes I know it adds nutritional value but I'm having chips so I'm not going to be on a healthy eating day. Never heard of Popeye's actually but if it's new to the UK then it may take some time for it to move further north.
Popeyes is pretty new, Theres not many locations but I assume there will be more
had popeyes once when down at the metro centre and it was head and shoulders above kfc, which just seem to be small pieces with greasy coatings
I think I would put it above KFC too
I like to see the restaurants are top level for hygiene.
In the States you get biscuits with your KFC
Sadly not over here in the UK, it would be great if they did do it here
I really like KFC but I will give Popeyes a try. Never had biscuits but they even have the same shape as scones so can see the confusion. Mac N Cheese is a bit odd as a side.
It well worth a try, I really enjoyed it
I went to a newly opened Popeyes at a busy time and the queue was insane because you can only order by touchscreen, no paying at a till, and the touchscreens were playing up.
I really wanted to try it but I’ll wait until they have an app where you can preorder and then collect.
Its well worth a try if you can, I really liked it
@@everydayimeating3407 👍
Wish there was a Popeyes near me. The closest one to where I live is 43 miles away in Rotherham.
That is the one I went to 😀
Ive been to that one also 😅
Fun fact: After roughly 4 days in the fridge, KFC chicken smells like somebody smoked a pack of cigarettes all over your chicken.
Never been to Popeye's, but will definitely try
Its well worth a try
@@everydayimeating3407went today, wow we were not disappointed, really enjoyed Popeye's
Another great video , I'd have to pick kfc. And cheaper option too :)
I'm curious do you do these videos on the same day 😊 ? Xx
I did not on this occasion but sometimes I do lol
THAT COMMENT WAS BLASPHEMY
Popeyes
Thing about kfc is that its the king of consistency u will get the same kfc in india of that in usa
I wish the KFC chicken looked like this around here...the coating just falls off with the all the grease..love the KFC seasoning but the chicken itself is not good at KFC around here.
Popeyes looked great chap..mmmmm 👌👌
Popeyes HANDS down! Next time you go, get the spicy chicken and drizzle with honey. IN SAAAANE (DELICIOUS!!)
That sounds amazing, I might have to try that
This looks so different from Australian KFC. Ours looks better, but I would like those skin on chips.
I tried Popeyes for the first time and wasn’t impressed. I got chicken on the bone and found the batter to be very dry and hard. It was the spicy version. It was hot but didn’t have much other flavour. The chicken too was dry. KFC is far better, much better flavoured batter, more juicy. Only disadvantage with KFC is their skin on fries which I don’t like.
I have had *Popeye's* when I was abroad.
It was superior to *KFC* and I am stoked to see the UK branch you tried has kept the standard.
I only hope I visit one over here soon.
*KFC* was mucj better when I was a kid.
I think Popeyes might be my new favourite
Had my first Popeyes yesterday. I'd definitely pick Popeyes over KFC
They edge it for me too 😀
"Hot wings, they never fail to disappoint." I don't think that is exactly what you wanted to express when you said that, right? 🙂
I think I may have said that phrase wrong lol
Normally the noodles are small in mac n cheese. I prefer church's chicken to Popeyes Chicken
Is Church's a chain like KFC and Popeyes?
@@everydayimeating3407 Yes it is.
a bit difficult to comment on this, i like KFC never tried Popeyes , but i think that would be too spicy for me. so i will stick with the KFC although i find it hit and miss on the crust and taste sometimes and the gravy puts me off as i saw how they make it
Theres only a tiny bit of spice to the Popeyes gravy, but with the burger and chicken you should be fine
I am a spice wimp😃😳
Dread to think how many calories were in all that :-) But honestly KFC looks to have really improved since I last went by the looks of that food (it was usually a greasy mess about 10 years ago).
I think I had a few days worth of calories lol
I'm not a great fan of KFCs having had some less than nice meals in the past. I would have to be really hungry to go there, i think its a bit tired and boring now. Popeyes on the other hand, i would definitely go get that amazing crispy burger and scrumptious chips, it looked incredible.Not fussed about mac n cheese, but that one looked very appealing. popeyes wins for me hands down!
Popeye's definitely
It took it for me too 😀
Thinks Popeyes looked nicer overall although I’m not a Mac n Cheese fan.
Ive never been to KFC it looks a lot better than Mcdonalds last meal i had from there was disgusting popeyes look the best though great content as usual.
popeyes 23 bloody hell, looks good
It tasted good 😋
you sound a lot like that guy from lifestyles of the rich and famous
the KFC close to me is hit and miss. sometimes nice sometimes greasy id love to try popeyes though.
If you got a chance, Popeyes is definitely worth a try
The biscuit from Popeyes is way overcooked.
I’m in the USA 🇺🇸 and Popeyes is way better hands down.
They tasted better to me 😀
I love kfc best chicken for me
Watching from Florida, KFC is not popular at all here!
Popeyes looked nice .Havent had kfc in yrs x
The Popeyes was delicious
how can the mac n cheese n biscuit be better at popeyes when kfc don't do that ? Rolls eyes
🙄
I wont eat chicken skin, so both are out for me.
Well, Indian restaurants seem to serve most chicken dishes without skin.
Chicken Tikka/Tandoori is healthier than fried food and something you probably like.
@@adamkane7513 100% yes!
Coal road leeds kfc
Doesn't Popeye eat spinach?
Every Popeyes where I'm located is rated at 2.5 out of 5. The problem is they just can't get their stuff together, their always out of stuff, chicken is extra greasy and they would rather but caught up in some bs drama then serve people. No hard guess on who's running these restaurants, everything's a always a mess, no work ethic or structure.
Have been eating KFC since the early 1970s.Just chicken'n'fries😊grand.Popeyes the last few months offer such a wide range of tasty items.Both serve good chicken,to my taste Popeyes are a tadge to spicy. The original 11 herbs and spices meet my taste buds with a smile ☺ I felt your Popeyes looked over cooked,but take your word they were not.Again both portions of fries looked fine,but the addition of spice on Popeyes, not for me. I base my thoughts just on fried chicken and not the extras & burgers. Also salad should not go in/ on a burger.Mac&Cheese is not a side dish 😢 So final answer KFC for me❤😊
I'm with you 100%. I've only been to Popeyes once, and it's not for me; I like the contrast between the spicy coating on the chicken and the simple flavour of salted chips - the Popeyes is just too much spice with everything, and it's also significantly more expensive.
KFC is better, bigger pieces tried popeyes and they include small pieces in their too
UK does not do fast food that great
Isn't fried chicken just fried chicken? Need a bit more adventurous food restaurants..... It's a good idea to cut food up rather than stabbing it whole on a fork!!!! 😅😅
Biscuit looks a bit over done.
popeye i love that place
Personally, both are way too expensive and the kfc app is the worst with it crashing all the time and the branch you go in to sort it out are never interested so I stopped going there!!!
KFC sucks here in Florida popeye's outbeat them by a mile,the best KFC I've ever had was at Niagara Falls where they cook every order fresh.
Kfc extra crispy thighs and wings
Popeyes all day long!
It tasted great 😀
KFC over the years has gotten smaller and smaller. The burgers couldn't get any smaller if you ask me lol, then there's the issue that there's always something missing from your order, think it must be company policy 😂 but kfc gravy oh my days it's amazing the only good thing as it saves there disgusting fries!
We don’t have Popeyes over here in Ireland but KFC would be my go to. Even though I have had some disappointing ones lately. Ie. Not very warm or very dry chicken. However, the price the price the price! How do you justify it?
KFC
🍗🧢🍟
✌🏻🧑🏻🦱✌🏻
How aren't you the size of a house? You must work out!
Haha thanks, I don't usually eat them on the same day
You said "It never fails to Disappoint" lol think you got mixed up what you should have said is "It never fails to impress" because otherwise you're saying it never fails to be rubbish and not good
😂 kfc wings ime never do fail to disappoint, ONE time I got given a couple for free and they were actually nice and had some meat on them, wow I thought, I never realised wings could actually be good, cue me ordering them like an idiot the next 3 times I make the mistake of going there , and receiving some bones and sinew with a tasteless coating , I swear they purposely gave nice ones away free and then sold off the crap ones to the mugs like me that they managed to fool with them!!
@@Robfnord I love the KFC hot wings
Haha did I mess up that phrase lol
Sorry but I didn't enjoy thier chicken to salty and the batter not as nice as KFC. Biscuits are the only good thing.
Not watched it, but through pure experience it has to be Popeyes...as KFC is just nasty greasy s'hit
Popeyes looks dry and over cooked. I eat with my eyes first. Was it really worth an extra near £10 just for a scone and macaroni and cheese? What a rip off! Sorry just my opinion.
Popeyes > KFC
Popeyes is Halal. KFC is mostly. Neither for me then.
i would not have the mac and cheese. not really a chicken fried place item.
may be a pair of scales and weigh what you are getting.
since most of these items are not the same in number or size.
you really need to put items that are the same together from each place. like
kfc vs Popeyes gravy. etc. but when you look at paying £7 more it has to be better over £22 is a lot of money for 1 person to spend. that's equal to 4 meals in brewers fayre.
may be a split screen head to head price, weight / size of pot. then taste.
if you look i think the kfc cookie is the same price as the biscult. but you did not get one at kfc.
and i think if prices are correct the mac and cheese was £2.95. an item that no other place does.
this making the cost of each unbalanced. as not same for same items
Popeyes is just too American for me... biscuits and gravy? Macaroni cheese? Eeew no, not this side of the pond. Biscuits are digestives, bourbons or hobnobs... not scones! The US need to stop butchering English which comes from.... ENGLAND. 😉😳❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
