In a survey of 190,000 fast food vendors across the country, Mercure Hotels has compiled a ranking of the most used names, with one moniker standing head and shoulders above the rest.

While Charcoal Grill has 215 outlets nabbing the name, the confidently named Best Kebab is in second place with 184 appearances on the ranking.

Munchies follows in third with 174, and Golden Dragon finds its way into the top four with 141.

There was also room for puns, with 459 chip shops using ''plaice'' instead of ''place'', and 75 Codfathers popping up around the UK.
