(5,513 posts)they have stuff that other places don't, like pot roast and pork cutlets. Besides the usual burgers, they also have fish (the fish used for the sandwich is different from the fish used in the dinner) and cheese curds. Fresh beef always, and a choice of cheese. Frozen custard with multiple toppings available.
None of the food is kept under a heat lamp or in a warming drawer.
They started up in Wisconsin and have a large midwestern presence. They've recently expanded into Texas, probably elsewhere. I like their burgers better than In-n-Out, and that's saying something. My closest Culver's is around twenty miles away, but I willingly make the trip.

(25,927 posts)It was built a couple of years ago. Woulda been sooner if not for COVID-19. Sometimes I wish it was farther away

Plus they give pup cups to my traveling companions, which is nice.

(6,078 posts)Mainly because I get off work at 6:30AM and I can get a bacon cheese burger and onion rings. But, McDonald's has the absolute best fries, ever!!

(22,057 posts)But, I had an upper GI done on Tue, with nothing to eat or drink since midnight the night before. I felt like I'd been drinking mortar mix, so stopped at a McD's. First of all, the food is as terrible as I remember. Second, it was $20 for 2 breakfast sandwiches, a large OJ, and a large coffee!
So, awful, AND outrageous.

(8,922 posts)Burgers are tastier, and fries are way better. So, Id say BK for me. For a once in a while change Arbys isnt bad either.
Our Wendys is awful. Serve cold food.

(24,280 posts)except for any of their chicken products.
I also like Taco Bell. Mainly I like their basic original Tacos. I liked them a lot better when they were 19 cents, though.

(969 posts)Family owned Mexican food chain started in Phoenix, and spreading all over Arizona and expanding into New Mexico and California.
Great breakfast burritos and chimichangas served quickly at a good price 24 hours.

(65,173 posts)I enjoy the sausage-egg-biscuit, and the burgers and fries are my fast food favorite. The chicken McNuggets are also good, as is the McCrispy (though the rolls on the McCrispy get quite brown and I dont like burned stuff).
I dont like Burger King, Subway, or the quick pizza places like Pizza Hut. Wendys and Chick Fil-A (despite their bad politics) are good as are others like Jersey Mikes and Five Guys.
debm55
(25,160 posts)Another great thread.
The best thing from Wendys IMO is their chili. I have liked it since I was younger.

(7,613 posts)To me, they've lost a bit of the appeal they used to have when they were using the McDonaldland characters in their advertising. My current favorite is BK. I absolutely love the taste of their burgers and fries!

separate. Maybe they do that because they think kids don't have any taste.

(1,229 posts)Steak burger, shoestring fries, small garden salad, vanilla or strawberry milkshake without whipped cream.
My husbands favorite is Bojangles spicy chicken sandwich and a cup of ice water. Whew! I like spicy, but theirs is too hot for me. I dont care for mayo, and theres not enough sour cream or ranch dressing on the planet to make it tolerable. Oh, well. Some how, Ill carry on. 🥲

(20,174 posts)I can get a large coffee (or soda) for $1. I'm on a keto diet and I can order just their 1/4 lb beef patties - salt and pepper, nothing else. They charge me $1.45 to $1.69 depending on the location.
