Be depressed because you will never taste the greatness that was Wendy's when Dave was still alive. Shit sucks now.

>> No.17791335

It's... just okay.

Have it twice, to form your own opinion. Get a burger and fries on one trip. Get a chicken sandwich and maybe a chili or baked potato on the 2nd trip.

I might be biased, but there's nothing really Wendy's has to offer that makes them stand out, to me.

Whoops. I guess they'd call them 'chips' for you folks across the pond, not fries.

Wendy's also doesn't do any fish items, if I recall. Would be neat to see if there's any different/new items for Britain locations.

Get the Dave's burger. The people saying it's nothing special must have not had a fast food burger in a while. IMO they are king but I will admit that I haven't been able to eat at a few joints on the East coast. Many other joints have disappointing burgers that will have 800 calories but make you hungry a few hours later. It's just sad. That being said all restaurants are different over seas. Apparently Australian Burger King (Hungry Jacks) is good and doesn't give you debilitating stomach pain like ours do.

TL;DR I enjoy them, but form your own opinion.

Fond memories of eating there with my dad in the late 90s and early 2000s. I use to get the spicy chicken sandwich and fries and I'd squeeze a bunch of the hot chili sauce on my fries and make my dad laugh when it was a bit too much for me to handle. I haven't had Wendy's in years and now I'm a huge disappointment to my dad
