The Wyck Recommendation: Arby’s (Hamilton) Rating: 3.6/5 Yes, It’s Arby’s. No, I Don’t Need Saving.
Intro Scene Look, we all have our secrets. Some people text their ex. Some people eat gas station sushi. Me? I walk into Arby’s on purpose. And not just any Arby’s—this Hamilton one. Bright. Friendly. Suspiciously... competent. It's like they knew I was coming and said, “Let’s show him what redemption tastes like.”
What Was Ordered Curly fries (because duh), a Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (which honestly had no right being that decent), and yes, a baked potato—because I believe in balance and irony. Still dreaming about those golden coils of fry perfection. No one’s making curly fries anymore like this. Arby’s is quietly guarding the last temple.
Service Commentary Fast. Friendly. Almost alarmingly polite. I half expected someone to check on how my emotions were doing. Whatever they’re doing to train staff here, it’s working. This crew deserves a Michelin star just for morale.
Vibe Check Clean enough to perform light surgery in the dining area. Zero sticky tables, zero rogue ketchup packets on the floor. This isn’t your childhood Arby’s where hope goes to die. This is Arby’s with therapy, a 401k, and a skincare routine.
The Space Itself Neutral tones, fluorescent lights, and a vibe that says “we’re just happy you’re here.” Honestly, I’ve been in worse hotel lobbies.
About the Neighborhood You’re in Hamilton—so expect character. The kind of place where a construction worker, a goth teen, and someone in full cycling gear all nod to each other while unwrapping sandwiches.
Hits & Misses ✓ Curly fries sent straight from heaven ✓ Nashville Hot Chicken was actually... kinda fire ✓ Baked potato option like a plot twist from a health documentary ✗ Arby’s still gets judged harder than it should ✗ Jr. sliders still recovering from an identity crisis
Final Verdict Yes, it’s Arby’s. Yes, people love to talk trash. But this spot? It’s holding it down like a weird cousin who suddenly got his life together and now runs a surprisingly successful Etsy shop. Respect. If you’re looking for an unpretentious bite with unexpected dignity—this is your place.

Read moreTerrible service. Waited about 10 minutes for the car in front of us to get their food. Wondered why it took so long. Then got to the window to pick up the food and the girl handing our food was absolutely fried and didn't even know what she was doing. Another girl gave us the debit machine, we paid. She handed us our food and walked away. We sat there and my boyfriend had to tap on the window and ask for our drinks. She looked very confused and asked if we cashed out and we said yes, we clearly have our food but you forgot to give us our drinks. She hands us drinks, no straws. We check our food, and they forgot 2 fries. And 2/4 drinks were wrong. (2 of them being the same). The sandwiches were right. So kudos to the kitchen staff for knowing what they were doing. But this one girl in particular on drive thru, who was very clearly fried, needs to maybe get herself together before trying to work in the state she is...
Read moreRe-reviewed We gave it another try Food was very good. Must say it was better than the last. We can never tell with the food industry. It’s hit and miss sometimes So give it a try yourself. I’ve added some new pics. Look at the beautiful note they put on the bag as we asked for crinkle cut fries, but they do not sell it anymore. So they put a cute note
We got triple cheese blt, jb beef cheddar , fries, turnovers and drinks. The sandwiches were not too bad. However the large fries were half empty and cold. Turnovers was meh could have been fresher A bit disappointed seeing we paid so much for the food. Let’s give what suppose to be given for what the customers pay for. I would probably like to go back in the hopes they can...
