I will always love their rootbeer as it evokes nostalgia. It is served without ice because they say the temperature is ice cold and the melting ice would impact the taste. I usually order the Mama burger because it is cheap or the Beyond Meat burger when I feel like saving a cow’s life. The sides are all pretty great here: the fries, sweet potato fries and onion rings are all good.
The only thing I don’t recommend is using the app. Your order is chewed up by the app and spit out differently from what you ordered. It is bizarre. I paid and was charged $51.10 in the app but the order I received was missing one of the sides, and the emailed receipt also was different from my actual order, and totalled $45.65. I had to order and pay for my missing side at the restaurant.
Later the charge to my credit card mirrored the charge on my emailed bill. The manager made it right later. A&W, please fix your app so the manager can get on with managing the restaurant and not mistakes with your app.
The food was tasty and hot. Order at the counter and check your order...

She patiently helped us decide what my nephew could safely eat. The second time we went we sought help again. We had the same pleasant experience from another female staff member. My nephew is now a...

I asked the lady at the counter to please have my eggs cooked a little more. The second order was worse the bottom was burned black and the yolk of the egg was raw I asked to speak with the manager and was told she was on vacation. I contacted the city health inspector and had him go to this store. He seemed rather frustrated with the team when he sent me an email to me suggesting that I order my eggs differently I I want eggs at that...
