Favorite has been serving freshly prepared fried chicken to communities across the UK for nearly 40 years.
From the beginning, our focus has been simple: quality ingredients, fair prices and friendly service. While the world has moved on, our commitment to great taste and consistent standards has remained the same.
Today, Favorite is a family-owned British brand with stores across the country, proud of our heritage and focused on serving the next generation just as well as the first.
Favorite began in 1986 as a partnership between two hardworking family men determined to build a business that would support their own families and those of their franchisees. In 2006, the company became wholly owned by one of the founding families — and that foundation continues to shape who we are today.
Many of our stores are independently run by local franchise partners who are part of the communities they serve. They employ local teams, build long-term relationships with customers and take pride in delivering quality food every day.
When you visit Favorite, you’re supporting a long-established UK brand and local business owners who genuinely care about their neighbourhoods.
Great fried chicken starts with quality ingredients and careful preparation.
Our Traditional Chicken is prepared and cooked in store using fresh chicken from approved suppliers. Our Chicken Fillet Burgers — including the Traditional Fillet, Fillet of Fire and Double Ringer — are made from whole chicken breast, hand prepared and cooked to order.
Our Crispy Fillet Strips and Chicken Poppas are made from whole pieces of chicken breast. Not minced. Not processed. Just carefully prepared chicken, cooked for flavour and consistency.
Our fries are made from real potatoes and blanched in sunflower oil, and all cooking oils used in our stores are free from harmful trans fats.
We focus on getting the fundamentals right so every visit delivers the quality our customers expect.
Whether it’s a quick lunch, a family dinner or a weekend treat, Favorite offers a wide range of fried chicken meals, chicken burgers and sides to suit every appetite.
Our stores are welcoming, convenient and family-friendly, making Favorite a trusted local chicken takeaway for customers across the UK.
Favorite stores are locally operated businesses, employing local people and serving neighbourhoods they know well.
For nearly four decades, customers have returned to Favorite for consistent quality, reliable value and a familiar welcome. As we celebrate 40 years, we remain committed to doing what we’ve always done: serving Britain’s Tastiest Chicken with care.
