New Fast Food Restaurant??

Dude, what country do you live in? A&W's have been around forever....granted, not a lot in Houston, but still...

 

There is one off of beechnut and 59 near the SW Memorial Hospital

 

There is also one on Hammerly and the Beltway, across from the Jack in the Crack. I've never eaten there but if anyone does or has, let me know if it's any good.

 

Had it yesterday for the first time. Burger was ok, fries were good, and the root beer was good...they give you frosty mugs for it

 

I have never tried them, but I do see them here in Dallas as well...They are in combo with KFC...There is one near pasadena off of Beltway 8 and almost to Fairmount Pky going East...

 

I had a burger melt there a while back that was good. They have good floats too.

 

Heh, I ate there today. It's nothing special.

 

Best way in the world to get Root Beer. They have it in a tap and serve it in cold mugs. It tastes about 100 times better than what you get out of a regular fountain or from the store.

Other than that it's just a typical hot dog/burger joint. Not great, but not bad.

And they've been around forever and ever.

 

LOL. thanks for the laugh

 

they have it here in malaysia too.
the float is awesome. its the only thing that separates them from other fast food joints in my country

 

Because Yum Brands (A&W, Taco Bell, Long John Silver, Pizza Hut, & KFC) finally gave them a budget to advertise, along with the contributions of their franchisees. A & W has been around for a very long time.

A & W history

 

Isn't A&W actually one of the OLDEST fast food places?

 

They had a number of 'em out here in the SW/SL/Mo City area but they all folded.

 

I think theres an AW near 610 and Ella.

I never been there.

Yup, i figured they were part of the Taco Bell, LJS, Pizza Hut family.

 

AW is one of the oldest fast food chains in existence.

They've merged with KFC's where I live, so you can get your burger and a side of mashed potatoes if it strikes your fancy.

 

I think A&W is like KFC, which seems to have more restaurants overseas than in the States. The only A&W I've been to was in Kuwait in 1999. At the time, I didn't even know they had restaurants here in the homeland.

 

There are a mess of A&W's here in Dallas. They usually co-exist with a Long John Silver (*barf*) and maybe a KFC, I think.

 

they've been back in houston since about 1998.
