I had A&W 2 days ago because I haven’t had it in a while. I got it in Calgary at the mall and it was one of the best fast food experiences i’ve ever had. Sweet Potato Fries were crispy, Burger was flavourful and the bun was warm and toasted and even though it was busy, we got our food in a reasonable amount of time. I wanted to get A&W on the way home from my trip and stopped by the one in Russel MB. I wanted to get the same order I had a few days ago so I ordered a teen burger combo with sweet potato fries and 2 spicy chipotle wraps. Damn I was so sad.

The eggs we got were smashed cooked, hard as rubber with no soft yoke at all, the bread I got wasn't toasted, the bacon was like biting flimsy glass, and the coffees we got was essentially brown water. The hashbrowns was the only good thing...
Read moreThe food via drive thru has been great lately, usually they park you out front to wait a couple minutes and everything comes out fresh and hot . Unfortunately the "frozen/smoothie drink" machine has been broken since well before December (it's may) and the timeline for it being fixed changes every time we ask. In addition to this they advertise a dairy free alternative on their menu (oat beverage) but when it's ordered you're told they don't have it, and don't know anything about it or why it's...
