Fast Food Or Chain Restaurants You Used To Enjoy....

Hmmm, I don't visit any fast food or chain places anymore, but I guess I miss those 2 am bombed stops at Waffle House down south. That stuff just soaks all the booze and lets you pass out worry free.

I used to like LUMS but I think they went out of business a long time ago. I also used to like White Castles but there are none here and the frozen ones are no good. When Taco Bell started out, I loved their tacos but a few decades ago they changed them. When Arby's started they were a decent beef sandwich but now the "meat" reminds me of plastic. Favorite carry out now: The Cook Out hamburgers, I like the ones with caramelized onions, melted cheddar and bacon. ( I would loved to substitute mushrooms for the bacon but they don't have mushrooms.)

I went to one of those in Australia (Brisbane? OR Cairns?) back in 1986. Started in Chicago.

I remember Sizzler, I'm not a steak eater but I ate there once and it was good.

When I was in school, there was an A & W, near my sorority house. We ate a lot of burgers, and drank a lot of root beer. Their "submarine" sandwiches were plentiful, and dirt-cheap if several of us contributed $1.00. On that basis, we could afford a big portion of fries.

I haven't even seen an "A 'n Dub," in a long time. I Googled their locations, and found that there are none in my city, but 2 are in suburbs that are fairly close.

Fuddruckers (which I JUST found-out are STILL around), BUT I haven't been to one since about 1993.

Number of locations: 156?!?! (2019).

Sizzlers was popular here in WI until 2000 when there was an E. Coli outbreak. I used to love this cheese toast they had. There's an A & W in Reedsburg, WI that still has the old fashioned spaces where you park & they come out & take your order. We also have a couple right here in the suburbs. We also have a Fuddruckers right next to Brookfield Square. This one has been here since late 80's. But it's a prime location. Personally I miss Burger Chef, Big Boys, & Boy Blue Custard stands.

there's still a good amount of them on the west coast, mostly in California.

I had one down the street from the Apartment I had in Washington State. Before I moved to Pennsylvania, all my friends out here thought they had gone out of business as well.

I just ate at the one in my hometown of West Covina, California back in August

When I was in the military in the late '60s I was forced to spend 6 weeks in Indianapolis. The bright spot was a Lums. The chili dogs were so good you could die and beer never tasted better than when served in an ice cream soda glass. I never was anyplace else near a Lums. According to Wikipedia, a Lums can be seen in the recent movie The Irishman.
