Which fast food joint has the best burger? Protip: it isn't In-N-Out.
>>
Whataburger, no contest.

Lying Texan detected.

Whataburger is mediocre as fuck.
>>
you provincial fucks get out with your Whataburger and In-N-Out they aren't available in most of the country.

Of the Nationwide chains I'd choose Hardees/Carl's Jr.

I've heard good things about The Habit. One is opening up pretty close to me, so I'm psyched about that.

In-N-Out is meh at best. When I moved to California I got the standard "you haven't tried In-N-Out?!? You gotta try In-N-Out, it's the best!" reaction from everyone. So...

I'll side with you on Wendy's as long as it's made fresh.
>>
Five Guys, hands down. Steak n' Shake is an honorable mention.
>>
Smashburger and Culvers are the only two I go to. Very rare occasions I'll hit a Hardees.

I really liked In-n-out when I went there on a trip out to california, I would probably eat there regularly if there was one nearby.
>>
Not fair putting fast casuals such as culvers, smash burger, 5 guys vs. fast food such as Wendy's, Hardees/Carl's Jr.

Fast casuals are easily twice the price of fast food.
>>
>>7509947

Did you get in Animal Style which is with sautéed onions and grilled with mustard? Regular in n out burger is ok but Animal style is beast mode. I think In-N-Out fries suck very starchy and raw tasting.

In-n-out.
Also

Are you stupid?

>>7509993
This was in 1996, so whatever was their main product is what I got (e.g. #1 on the menu.) They may not have had animal style at the time and I haven't been back since I moved again.

You mention the fries. I don't know what they have now, but I swear I saw a store-bought package of Ore-Ida crinkle cut fries in the back as I was ordering.

Wendy's was good like 10-15 years ago but they changed something and now it blows
>>
>>7510393

No, they would be in the fast casual or whatever category.

They cook to order. Which is different than 'made to order'. The difference if you speak the English language is clear. They didn't precook the protein and assemble it right away.

They have a Drive-thru but it's not any faster because of that. They will give you a number and have you park ahead, 5-10 minutes later an employee will walk you out your food to your car. Tip not expected.

No, I just intentionally picked the shittiest picture I could find to drive my point home. Here's a slightly better one.

Every time I've gone there the patties were dry, they used chopped onions that had no flavor or crunch (previously frozen maybe?), and the buns were slathered in an awful neon mustard. It's inferior to Wendy's, BK, In n Out, McDonald's, and just about every other burger chain that isn't White Castle or Krystal.
>>
>>7509941
Came here to post this.... Jesus they have some decent burgers. At some extended stay place that has a carl's Jr. right next door. Their $4 Real Deal is the best deal going right now. Spicy chicken sandwich, double cheeseburger, small fry, and small drink. Great deal. Had their Carl's Jr. burger and it was fucking delish. Hate to shill for them... But i've been impressed. Had one of their salads yesterday too... not terrible.

Well, you're wrong. But enjoy being different.

If this was a room full of 10 people, 9 of us are over here enjoying Whataburger. Enjoying ourselves.

In the corner by himself munching garbage burgers to be a contradiction you'll find yourself.

Or you just had a bad experience. They're good.
>>
Will you tards stop posting $8 fast casual restaurants. This is a fast food thread by God!

Five Guys, Smasburger, Culvers, Shake Shack, etc of course they are better then Wendy's they cost twice as much. And none have the coast to coast coverage.

Personally of the actual nationwide Fast Food Restaurants I'd rank it:
Carl's Jr./Hardees, Wendy's and a distant third Burger King.
>>
>>7511814

I have eaten at Whataburger. It's merely ok. There is a lot of regional Texas pride at play that colors people's opinion.
>>
>>7511827

But I first ate at one when I lived in AZ.

Now I live in Midwest. When I road trip to visit family, I drive 30 mins out of my way to grab one in Northern Florida.

It's not nationwide, but they're not limited to Texas. Actually screw Texas Arizona is better.

Carl's Jr./Hardees is available in most of the US (see map). Whataburger and In-N-Out are Regionals.
>>
>>7512082
>>7512131

Whataburger operates franchises in 10 states: Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Georgia.

In-N-Out is only in CA, AZ and NV if I recall correctly.

Eh I've pretty much given up fast food burgers just because shake shack is so much better. Worth the extra money and time. Their shakes aren't that great though. Limiting ourselves to sub par choices in fast food restaurants when others serve the same shit but better is dumb. I could probably go to sit down fancy restaurant and get a better burger but shake shack is a good balance between wait time/quality.

Although I do get take out burgers from local restaurants sometimes and that can be even quicker than fast food if timed right.

Fast Food is not denoted by speed you pleb. It is a specific market of the restaurant industry. Primarily denoted by its dirt cheap engineered food owned by large corps and franchised out.

Shake Shack is a type of restaurant known as fast casual and typically cost 2x to 3x more with more trendy food choices and nicer restaurants.
