Reading residents' favourite fast-food chains, new study reveals all (2024)

MCDONALD’S and KFC are among the most popular fast-food chains in Reading as new study reveals the UK’s top chains.

A study by Now Patient has revealed the fast-food capitals of the UK and which chains are most popular across the country.

McDonald’s was a clear winner as it took top spot in every UK city. The popular chain has more than 3.3million searches per month, which is three times more than second place.

KFC came in second place in every UK city which one million searches per month.

Subway came in third place for most UK cities, however Reading residents disagree as data shows that McDonalds, KFC and Burger King make up Reading’s top three.

Newcastle has been named the UK’s fast-food capital with 28 fast-food restaurants per 100,000 people. This is compared to Reading who came in 18th place with 12.3 restaurants per 100,000 people.

Manchester, Belfast, Nottingham and Glasgow make up the top five fast-food capitals in the UK.

Now Patient used World Popular Review and store locators for various fast-food chains to find out how many stores are in each city.

When looking at store locators for five main chains: McDonalds, KFC, Burger King, Subway and Five Guys, it found that Reading has 39 of these restaurants.
