Jollibee is practically a food icon here in the Philippines. Almost everyone knows of it, has eaten its food products, etc. I guess it has something to do with the way it has been marketed ever since, i.e. to cater to children. It's also one of the more profitable franchising ventures, I've heard. You could actually earn up to a 200% return on investment, though I'm not so sure how accurate this percentage is. As for me, I find Jollibee's food okay, especially its fried chicken and gravy, which is my favorite. When it comes to fries and burgers, though, I'd go for McDo, Burger King or Wendy's.

Hello nekonyata, good day! I agree to you that here in our country Jollibee became the food Icon here in the Philippines and it became the reason why most of the filipino love eating in that fast food chain. I didn't know that if you invest a franchise ventures you could earn 200% more return! Well, with that information I guess if I have a good amount of money I will build a franchise of that because it's really key to success!

Hmm... About the 200% return on investment, it was something our professor in Advanced Accounting mentioned when we were discussing about franchises - and that was back in 2007. I think they (Jollibee) also help franchisors find suitable locations for their outlets - something about strategically placing outlets so as not to be in direct competition with other Jollibee outlets.

I don't really patronize fast food but I prefer Jollibee than McDo. I used to eat red meat, so I remember the time that I enjoyed eating a champ burger better than big mac. Nowadays, I go to jollibee just to eat this fried bangus (milkfish) or sometimes chicken joy and mango-peach pies.

Hello 24champ! Good day! You are right about that Champ burger was really better than Big mac because with my experience eating the burger of champ burger it is more big and more delicious, as I remember during our school days I always buy that burger every week just to filled my hungry stomatch! Hehe In Jollibee I also love the free Mango peech pie hehe As I remember I never eat that food in their store and I just take it in our house then enjoy eating it while watching television. Hehe it's really funny when I remember it and it's really true!

Hello flagella08, good day! I just want to share some conversation with your response. Hehe Well, I guess you and your husband really find McDo really good and like what have you said it is your favorite fast food, honestly we really have our own choice for something that's why you can say that thing. But Honestly speaking I haven't try eating in McDo so I can't give some comment with their fast food store but I do believe that they really served a delicious food that get your taste to became your favorite fast food. By the way, flagella08 it's really funny that most of the kids just love to go in Jollibee because of the toys which is true. Hehe Even me when I was young I also want the free toys that they give when you reach the ordering limit to have some toys. Well, now I guess more kid find jollibee more great because of their Jolly Town. Hehe have a nice day!

Hi flagella08, me too. I am a fan of mcdo. I don't know why a lot of people like foods from jollibee. I mean, the burger and fries of mcdo are better than that of jollibee. I gues it has just been the tradition. Parents are used to bringing their kids at jollibee, since jollibee looks cuter than ronald mcdonald.

i guess it's because most jolibee foods taste pinoy style as they say it.unlike mcdo, the taste is quite foreign to others.

no. i dont love eating in jollibee anymore. i have to admit that when i was young, i would love to go there. its tasty before. now, its not worth it. i like mcdo more. i can honestly say, they have a very good marketing strategy. targeting very young consumers, knowing that parents cannot resist them and will eventually give in to the young ones.

Well lrglara, you have a great point on that and the strategy of the Jollibee was the young to attract them to eat in their fast food where parents find to resit it like what you have said, with this matter I can say that Jollibee really give have a great marketing technique and Idea to think that matter, that's why they became popular. Well, lrglara I think you really in the age to think the right thing and no more a kid to make a decision like this. Well honestly I agree with you that this technique was really effective to kids. By the way, I will also try eating in McDo may be after trying it I will see the different between them. Have a nice day!

Yes, definitely. The mere smell of their chicken joy makes me crave for one.

Hi minniemadz, good day to you! I agree with you that the chicken joy makes us crave for one! . How I wish in the store of Jollibee there would be a new menu or value which you can order atleast one piece of chicken joy because honestly speaking one piece of it makes me enough and I will just eat it together with a big amount of rice. I do not know why does their chicken joy was very crispy even though a great number of minutes or hour pass not like our chicken joy here in our house with breeding season to make it more crispy. Well, How I wish I have a chance to know that secret of crispiness! By the way minniemadz, I'm sure you really love chicken joys! Hehe.. Happy posting and happy earning to us!

Jollibee - Children loves Jollibee
I love Jollibee if I haven't eaten it for a long time.It is ubiquitous and the most accessible in times that we are too busy to order food duting our duties,/
• Philippines
7 Jun 09
You are right about that mimiang, sometimes when we are too busy at all we do not have time to go in that place, but good thing in the Jollibee theres a free service where you can able to order it and they will just deliver your order but theres a increase of payment due to transportation and service, so it only means that it is not free. Now a days even though theres is a payment with the delivery it is much good because we could able avoid the wasting of time like when traveling the traffic in the way. Well, as I remember if I am not mistaken the delivery hotline service of Jollibee was "87000". Is that right? ? ?
• Philippines
8 Jun 09
Well, thank GOD I'm right because may be if I'm wrong the number that I will give is the McDonalds Hotline number for delivery service.. Hehe just kidding! . By the way, I do not know if how many time it will take when you order it and have a delivery service, may be as long as the branch was close to you or what I mean was near you it will take fast and not late during your lunch time. Well, happy posting and happy earning to us mimiang!

I loved eating at Jollibee, I like their chicken and even their french fries. What I don't like from their service is some times very slow. The service crew are some times are not polite to greet their customers, but though it depends on branch. There are some branch that the service was good. Can't blame them because they are tired from their work, still Jollibee is no. 1 in the country because they serve quality and yummy foods.

i just like the zert pies... i also like the other foods, but i more likely to eat on chowking, a sister company of jollibee. in other country, there are also some branches of jollibee. jollibee becomes the filipino food icon.. a fast food restaurant for all.

i'm a self-confessed jollibee girl. i so love their food, esp. the yumburger and the Jolly spaghetti.the truth is, i'm craving for some right now. i guess jollibee is here to stay. their huge success is admirable. i'm proud of this company bec. they were able to penetrate the international market and it's because of their commitment to quality and total customer satisfaction. i hope jollibee continue to inspire local companies to strive harder to achieve success. more power to Jollibee, the purveyor of langhap sarap for kids and kids-at-heart like me! :)

i also used to be a jollibee kid,but as i grow older,i realize that it's better to eat in our house and cook some foods..hehe in this way,we can save money too.. it's popular to kids because of the mascots and for some people with no time to cook and who are very hungry because it's a fastfood chain. but now, i prefer much the McDonald's (because i also work there hehehe..)they have more varieties and i think that the fries of McDonald's tastes good than jollibee..
• Philippines

I eat at jollibee.they have a wider menu than mcdonald's.my favorite is the crispy bangus belly(milkfish).I also love their french fries.most of jollibee's fans are kids because of the variety and taste fo their food.

I usually order take out because i pass by a jollibee store when going to the office... and i like it because some of the food they offer are quite cheap... like a complete meal below 100 php... or the 39ers... but i try not to eat jollibee everyday... since that can also be not good for our health...

When outdoors I personally would go to any fast food chains except Jollibee. I don't know I just don't like their food and most of the time they're too crowded. But if there's no other option and I'm really hungry, I'd go for Jollibee :)

Jollibee caters to the Filipino palate, at least most of them. Remember, the tagline of Jollibee, LANGHAP-SARAP". Just the smell of it is enough to bring people in. I think the taste is good enough. Others like Mcdo. others prefer jollibee while others prefer KFC. To each is own. We all have the freedom to choose.
