I thought it was pretty good. My taste buds are still a bit sub par but I thought I'd try anyway. I think I prefer this to Five Guys, which was just too big. I liked the burger, which had a big slice of tomato and fresh lettuce. Fries were OK but I probably prefer McDonald's. I liked the Frosty, basically a semi melted ice cream. There's hardly anyone in here, compared to the monkey house of McD's and Five Guys.

Overall a solid 7/10. Would go again. Reasonable price, just under a tenner.

The photo link URL goes 404. 

If you ever go back to Wendy's and are not too hungry, try their Chili. It is not bad at all. I never thought too highly of 5 Guys personally. It is expensive and we have a small local chain ]Char-Grill] here that is much better at that price. It's a 50's style place, so the cook is a 40 year old guy, wearing a paper hat, who is jamming out to the Big Booper whilst grilling away.  Good stuff.

I'll try the chili next. Pleasantly surprised, overall.

I don't about you, but I'm shocked and stunned that a company called House of Illuminati has been involved in something shady.

I hope you manage to see the pic because I took one of inside where a sign should say 'pick up' but looks more like 'fuck up'

That burger looks really good!  I haven’t been to Wendy’s in a long time, might have to go today for lunch.  The big question remains:  did you try the fry n’ frost combo?

Also what is up with that Smart Water?  No Peach Snapple there?

It doesn’t sound very good.  I’ve never tried it but have heard people do it.

That was last week. The most expensive bottle of water I've ever had. I was disappointed there was no kielbasa on the menu. Unfortunately they don't have the Red Baron here either.

Fresh ingredients. All in all, pretty good. Pleasantly surprised. Worth the extra, I think. It didn't have the frenetic feel of the other places either.

Wild horses wouldn't get me dipping fries in a Frosty. Not that they're likely to try.

So how would one satisfy the salty/sweet craving where you come from?  I like the Nature Valley granola bars my wife gets that have bits of chocolate or caramel mixed with the nuts.

Our local bakery does maple-bacon long johns.  I've yet to try one though.
