A&W Canada — Restaurant in Grimsby

Freezing cold A&W Rootbeer out of a huge glass mug, with a sheet of ice on the glass of the mug in the hot May sun! I literally went into a Rootbeer trance as I stared off into the distance wondering if Willie Wonka and the Oompa Loompa's could make better Rootbeer? Doubtful.

Nothing is better than fresh A&W Rootbeer as though it were drawn right from a FRESH Rootbeer Spring! If A&W didn't invent rootbeer, they certainly perfected the right taste. Honestly, a dehydrated desert camel would first drink A&W rootbeer over water. Its that good! I hold the ice cold mug to my cheek and imagine myself loping along in the Arabian desert astride my ever-so-loyal-camel. We are so dehydrated that our tongues are purple. "Your tongue isn't more purple than mine" I say to my trusty desert camel. Lo and behold a mirage of indescribable beauty begins to take shape and before a camel can spit, we are at the entrance of the Grimsby, Ontariou A&W! I dismount from the camel and ever so carefully, lead her into the A&W with me as we enjoy a drafty, ICE COLD Rootbeer that's out of this world. A&W is the best!

I loved the rootbeer and envrionment of this A&W so much, I almost asked if I could wash the dishes so I could never be too far away from the best Rootbeer in Ontario. The Rootbeer, food and environment were so pleasant, I almost cancelled our plans to Niagara for the day so we could hang out at this A&W and enjoy the amazing food and Rootbeer.

Crying children? None here, because the kids enjoy their burgers and rootbeer so much! Problem Teenager? Not anymore, just invite them to A&W and serve some ice cold Rootbeer and talk about the goodtimes while enjoying amazing food! Difficult Boss? Serve him their amazing cheeseburgers and and their amazing rootbeer and wait for it..."So, you asked for a raise? I think we can work something out" as he drinks another huge gulp of rootbeer and leaves a nice drafty rootbeer mustache on his face. Life is...

A & W high quality food. There ingredients are better than any fast food place. So for food QUALITY I rate them a 5 STAR . Then why do I give them a three? Well beneath all that good food are some policies that are low quality business practices.

So order a large diet Root Beer, well they only sell one regular size. That’s okay if your eating in as you can get a free refill or two, but when I’m on the road I like a drink to hold me through for several hours and the regular dose not cut the mustard.

Today for the first time I ordered their COD sandwich. Well I’m not crazy about the toppings they put on it so I order it the way I like it sliced tomatoes and mayo. Mmm Mmm fantastic COD, delicious, but 0.29 for tomato. So I ask why are they changing me for tomato while at the same time not giving me a discount for the 3 items I had them removed. So well she made a reason. Not a good argument.

Too the point I ordered no coleslaw that’s a substantial ingredient, knock off some money for that. Well it’s there policy to change extra when they can but discount nothing you removed. Well McDonalds has the same not so smart policy. With McDonald hold the cheese no discount but charge for the tomato.

I must say the when I told the teller I will pay for the tomato 🍅 but be warned I will go online and complain she gave me the tomato for no charge. By the way Burger King has a nice fish sandwich and they will pile on the tomato for no charge and the sandwich is almost half the cost.

One more thing, change the bun! Two sticks of fish don’t sit well on a round bun.

Please realize though that I like A&W I just wish that I LOVED them. So I offer these words of...

Coming home, We look at the coupons and saw a nice 2 teen combo for 14$. Feeling good with that deal we roll up to the a/wubs and saw that ad. Nashville hot chicken.

And just like that we go from a 14$ meal to a 28$ meal as we both got it, one with onion rings diet root beer and othrr with fries and root beer.

Current mood: excited

Roll up to pay. Get the root beers and was told which was which. - pay - get the bag - rolled into a parking spot and pulled out the glorious Nashville hot chicken. -que photo-

Chicken looks good. Not too saucy. Took one bite of the overhang chicken. Tasted like normal chicken. Current mood: confused. Where was this Nashville hot chicken I thought to myself. I take a few more bites and there was the sauce, a thin layer on the bottom bun. Current mood: wish I saved 14$ and got myself the teen burgers.

Chicken was good. But nothing Nashville about it. If they called it a spicy chicken sandwich I would have been happier with it. How would I rank it? Nashville hot chicken sandwich: 4/10 Spicy chicken sandwich: 7/10

Improvements, get that chicken hot and saucy. Or don't call it Nashville hot chicken. The chicken was good. Better than Wendy's chicken and much better than McDonald's (do then even have real chicken). Now to compare to Popeyes hot chicken sandwich it's a toss up for 2 reasons. One it was a year go i had it, two i love their fries the best. I wouldn't order it again by itself but if it was on the coupon deals I would...
