New York does have its very own fast food preferences, differing quite markedly from America at large.
Asked which fast food chain has the best food, the top rated chain in America was Chick-Fil-A, which was favored by 11% of Americans. In New York City, where Chick-Fil-A has only one outlet, the clear leader was Chipotle, the top choice for 17% of people living in one of the five NYC boroughs and the overwhelming choice of 24% of Manhattan residents.
Chipotle topped the NYC list again for healthiest fast food option, rated most healthy by 18% of New Yorkers and 28% of people living in Manhattan. Subway is rated healthiest fast food by 19% of all Americans.
