There's a canes where I lurk now. I went there once, and some dipshit was providing back up vocals through the drive through speaker, just screeching like a fucking chicken while taking the order.

It also gave me methane farts so I haven't been back.

Del Taco has much slept on shakes. If you like real ice cream with hella real strawberries, get that strawberry shake. And grab a churro while you’re at it.

Any pals in the Midwest fuck with Culver’s? I’ve heard nothing but good things.
Before you say the music sucked, have you considered shutting the fuck up?

seconding. Culver's is fucking excellent. I consistently crave their burgers when I want a good ol cheeseburger. Something about the smashed patties and the high quality ingredients, with that Wisco cheese....damn! plus their flavors of the day are pretty spectacular.

I felt like Culver's used high quality ingredients, but it didn't stand out. I had it 2 or 3 times over and span of 7 years and never craved it and don't miss it.

I know that's just my opinion, man. But here we go:

Popeye's has gone downhill since they were taken over by Burger King.

In-N-Out Burger is really overrated. Their fries are horrible and they put 1000 Island Sauce on everything. The Double-Double is good but not anything you can't find elsewhere.

Shake Shack takes the crown for me in all of fast food. Portillo's is consistently legit if you're in the Midwest.

The McDonald's chicken nugget is the best nugget out, if made fresh and consumed right away. The McDonald's Egg McMuffin is the ultimate breakfast sandwich.

Just had my first Popeyes chicken sandwich and it was life-changing. Probably the first time I've ever ordered something and it was actually as big and as good as it looked in the picture.

Thing about In-N-Out, Shake Shack, etc is that basically every major city in the US has at least one small, greasy smash burger joint that's probably been in business since the 40s' and beats the brakes off both of these places.
In KC we got Town Topic, which basically renders the Shake Shack useless to me.

I literally don't believe anyone that doesn't rank Culver's at the top. Not only the best burgers but also the absolute best ice cream out there. What a combo

They're not the best burgers but White Castle has always been a must everytime I visit Detroit.

White Castle is a guilty pleasure for sure. My family has a tradition of getting a couple of crave cases every New Year’s Day and eat an uncomfortable amount.

Get hungry on it!

This morning I skipped my usual yogurt parfait in favour of a Breakfast Baconator combo from Wendy’s.  Highly recommended if you’re craving a burger and fries at 7am and want to feel like garbage for the rest of morning.

I feel the same about McDonald's. They go bad in 10 minutes flat but straight out of the fryer, salted liberally, and dipped in Heinz ketchup (none of that house brand shit) they're a comfort food for me.

I don't know if this counts since it's not a traditional fast food place, but I wish people outside of the Mid-Atlantic region got to experience the magic of Sheetz when you're stoned at 1 AM.

Anyone tried the wagyu burger from Arby's? There's only 2 options, I went for the big mac imitation one. Actually a pretty good imitation of a good hamburger for $8, and you get the added bonus of curly fries. It's not going to replace my beloved beef n cheddar, but I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did.

What's the status on Cookout in North Carolina these days? Still popping? Went to NC for a 10 day skate trip years ago and the crew was stoked on it, especially the Cheerwine.

Can’t speak for NC but in Virginia it’s kind of the go to fast food spot especially past 12 AM. The cost has gone up a bit in the past few years of course but it’s still the most affordable best tasting poison in the south.
Can someone explain in Fortnite terms?

i feel like the hype has died down a little bit. the one by the college is always packed but they've been popping up all over the area and i rarely see anyone at the drive thru (granted, im driving by them at normal food hours and not midnight).

its good but none of the locations are close enough to the house for me to get it often (10-15 mins to any of the close ones).

Curious how long ago that was? I personally think it’s overpriced and not that good. The only thing they have going for them is being open late imo

Last time I had it, it was 2019 and I felt the same way, the fries were alright but the burger was actually nice in comparison to In&Out

Custard, if I'm not mistaken. It beats soft serve 100/100

I try to not eat fast food ever, but if I do, it's culvers.

Shake Shack is garbage, they barely season their beef so you really feel like it’s just a slab of ground beef, it’s fresh but nowhere near worth $10 for a no effort burger and some frozen crinkle cut fries. They opened one up literally on my corner and I’m bummed.

Popeyes used to have way better chicken but when they run good deals I’ll stop grab some, the red beans and rice is so good and the biscuits are top tier when fresh, location is very important though you have to get a good one if they have shitty owners you’re fucked, plus sandwich is whatever they either put an insane amount of Mayo or and insane amount of hot sauce when i got it either way

I used to live next to the checkers on girard and broad in philly so I’d eat there all the time for the 4 for 4s

Wendy’s 4 for 4 is the go to for value but their nuggets taste weird, burgers are tasty though, also you might still be able to sub an iced coffee for your soda with the 4f4 if you’re on the go

Taco Bell is delicious but you’re spending minimum $10 getting anything good which is what I’m trying to avoid getting fast food, I’ve eaten like ten tacos at once though, with chips too I love Taco Bell. I’m of the opinion that the plain tacos are the best, Doritos or soft for me, but I like to throw a classic crunchy in for childhood nostalgia purposes sometimes. Crunchwrap etc shit is weird, it always tastes kinda good cuz it’s Taco Bell but it’s not as good as the classics. Their chips and nacho cheese are scrumptious

Chipotle is alright, don’t want to spend $12 on lunch but truth be told it’s nutritious at least, it’s real food to an extent

McDonalds is my go to because I drink a ton of coffee and I use their $1 coffee coupon every time I’m out and about. I just end up getting a $4 double hamburger combo with my coffee. I justify it because I don’t eat enough red meat or iron rich food in general so it’s a decently filling portion of weird but satisfying McDonald’s burger when you’re emergency hungry, then you get a huge coffee for when you go skating for $5 together. Not a bad deal but I hate the food now. Back in 2015 I used to get their chicken tenders for fifty cents each with a coupon. I’d get 8 and take them back to my apartment around the block and make chicken and waffles with eggos and aunt Jemima syrup.

Burger King is alright I haven’t had it in years used to go to the one across from Cecil all the time. Whoppers are delicious but chicken is weird

Chick fil a is so fucking good that sauce with the chicken mmmmmmmmm

All in all get all the apps and don’t pay more than $5-6 for shit and eat it in emergencies and you’re good

we don't eat at any of the old school fast food places. there's a lot of places here in austin that we hit when we need something quick. tacos are big so i go with trochy's



or taco deli.



it's not drive up as much as order on the app and pick it up but that flow works fine for me.

we also do rudy's a lot for breakfast



for burgers, i don't really get the hype on in and out. we've got hat creek and p'terry's here which i prefer.

we also do chic-fil-a a bit but i just don't get the hype. 3 drive throughs with long lines at each

not sure if this has come up in this thread or if these are located outside of the Detroit area, but i've been addicted to the Falafel sliders and their seasoned fries (fuck, and the breaded cheesy curds). shit is definitely a bit more expensive than regular old "fast food," but worth it in my humble opinion
