Double Baconator or a Double stack with cheese are the only acceptable foods they have. Spicy chicken sandwich is pure shitake compared to a Chick-fil-a Spicy Chicken Sandwich with a slice of pepperjack and Chick-fil-a sauce.

Oh, no doubt. Chick-fil-a is God Tier fast food. We quit going to the Arby's on University. It's sad when you have to tell the cashier which button is the pic of the "Big Montana". I miss Back Yard Burger. 5 Guys is my go to spot for a burger now.

I don't count 5 Guys as fast food, it's too good for that. The one on University is the best beef I have ever seen an entire kitchen full of Mexicans being managed by Hindus make.

I don't count it as fast food, but I don't put it in the same category as Cheeburger Cheeburger or Red Robin either. It's really a tweener. I miss Cheeburger in Providence. Damn the reality company and the high rent. Now I have to drive all the way out to Whitesburg.

Good rule to live by.....don't eat anything cooked by minimum wage workers that isn't prepared in front of you.

But if you have to, you better just take off what you didn't want or just get your money back. If you take it back and complain about it not being right, you're going to get a dickslap burger in return. It may not have a tomato, but you can damn sure bet it'll have a mushroom stamp.

That is cop treatment.

They had one in Athens, Madison and Huntsville for a while. I went there at least once a week. Now the closest one is in Cullman.

I don't even know where one is near here. The one in Foley closed years ago, and the one in Pensacola is now closed as well. The closest ones now are in Fort Walton Beach and Biloxi.

Their burgers are awesome. $3-4 more expensive than BK or McD's, but you knew where that extra money went when you ate it.

I've learned to go inside to make an order. I admit I talk with a Southern Drawl and it isn't comprehended by most people especially those that work at fast food restaurants. Chic Fil A is the bomb as far as FF goes. I try and hit a Jacks when I am in North Alabama, they don't exist in this part of the state. I do like Wendy's new fries, it is probably my 2nd favorite behind MCd's. If I am in a fast food pinch I usually go through the Steak N Shake Drive thru it is cheaper than MD and it is 3x better. Side note I went to Momma G's on Airport in Mobile this weekend and 2 employees were wearing Bama shit and they had bama shit hanging on the wall. Only Auburn stuff was a schedule poster.

They used to have an AU national championship banner. Did they take it down?

Im a bit of a fast food snob. I dont go to the "scum of the ghetto working behind the counter and doesnt give 2 shits about the customer" type of place USUALLY. This is why I like Chick Fil A. Everytime Ive been they bend over backwards (go ahead make a joke here) and are almost too polite. Its like a training school for mormons or something, as if the Osmonds all work there. I laugh about that, but the customer service is grade A. Subway is good most of the time due to their assembly line nature but Ive had a few bad experiences there, but its the exception not the rule.

Im with K, Fuck McD's and the ghetto employees that dont even have an IQ of 43. BK, Wendys, Krystal and KFC arent far behind them. Every other time I go to KFC to get some original recipe, they are out and it will be 20 mins for a new batch... You are out???? of Chicken????? Ive literally stormed out of there on many occasions.

Anyone ever been to Los Pollos Hermanos? I hear the chicken is top shelf.

I have to admit that the BK here in Huntsville that is located near Research Park on University is actually fast for how crowded it is, they get your order right 9 times out of 10 and they are friendly. I just don't do BK all that much. All this talk is making me want a Chik-fil-a Spicy Chicken though.

Sometimes I think we are related. I crave those things every day. I actually will add 2 packs of tabasco to it as well. After 10 mins, my whole head is sweating.

Subway is solid. Hard to screw it up when you're standing right over the process going, "That...some of those...a few of those...wait, a little more of that...."

Hardees is one place that I grew up on as a kid. There was one 2 blocks from the house and the "Big Twin" was a staple of my childhood diet. Helped me to become the morbidly obese dreg on society I am today. However, they lost me a long time ago. I've never been able to keep up with what's on the menu. They add some thickburger, carb free, bowl of eggs something or other every few months. Had some great commercials over the last couple of years, though.

Little Buzz is still infatuated with McDonalds, but I couldn't loathe a fast food restaurant any more if I tried. There are only 2 things that I can tolerate from there...the regular hamburger with no onions and the caramel frappe.
7 times out of 10 I will still get onions on the burger from the one closest to us, even though I say "no onions" at least 3 times while ordering. The only thing their fries are good for is scraping onions from the soybean patty.

Man that Hardees across the street from the Green lantern branch of Union bank had the bomb of roast beef sandwiches.
They fell out of favor with me as well but I have since gone back to them in the last 6 months. Their burgers are damn good.

It was years before I tired a Hardees burger. I was convinced by some co-workers to go their for lunch one day a few years back and was pleasantly surprised how good it was. IMO, the best fastfood burger and on the same level as Back Yard. Not 5 guys level, but 5 guys isn't really fast food.
