We all have our favorite stores and restaurants, and new research reveals which ones are nearest and dearest to Americans’ hearts. Yelp has just come out with its Top 50 Most Loved Brands report, giving us insight into where our loyalty lies.
The research shows one thing’s for sure - Americans love eating meals they didn’t have to make for themselves, as nine of the top 10 beloved brands are either chain restaurants or stores that sell food.
- To come up with their ranking, Yelp looked at food, restaurant and retail brands with more than 200 locations in at least 25 states.
- Each brand had to have at least 500 Yelp reviews.
- Yelp then assigned a “loyalty score” to each brand based on their overall review rating, as well as the percentage of Yelp page views each brand has.
- Trader Joe’s tops the list, which isn’t surprising because of its very loyal customer base.
