Arby's — Restaurant in Town of Owego

It was pouring. My family was in search of late night fast food. Wendy's had turned us away (or rather ignored us), and next up was Arby's. We were wary. We'd never eaten at an Arby's before, and the restaurant was set to close in twenty minutes. We held our breath. The front door was locked. We drove around to the drive-thru and hurrah! Eyeing us through the window was an employee. He was courteous about our late order and told us to wait at the front to pick up the food. Shortly thereafter, he delivered the food to our car. He was surprisingly casual about the sheets of sock-soggying rain. And the food? The chicken tenders were indeed tender, with a superb ratio of crunchy breading to succulent chicken, the curly fries were crisp and appropriately-seasoned, and they were generous with sauce packets.

That’s why you got two stars. Yuck? My mouth needs to...

As Arby's go, this one is fine. :) It has THE MEATS and is pretty quick during the lunch rush. The Gyros are surprisingly good for a fast food place and of course the Beef 'n' Cheddar with curly fries is a classic choice. The jamocha shakes aren't as good as they were in my youth (they were real milkshakes back then), but are still tasty, though I recommend against the whipped cream 'cap' - this is a shake, not a frappuccino! The staff at this one all seem nice and helpful. There was a sandwich mixup once when I was having lunch and one of the counter folks came right out and brought me the correct one before I even noticed I had the wrong...
