A&W Restaurant - Sudbury

The chocolate shake at this restaurant is nothing more than chocolate-flavored water with ice. It was terrible! I spent over $4.00 for a small size (including $3.59 for tax) and it was a complete waste. It shouldn't even be called a shake because it is not made with ice cream.

I went to order a grilled chicken and was informed that A&W no longer offers it. The staff were impolite and it took me 35 minutes just to get a small order. The fries were unsalted and the prices were high. It wasn't terrible, but nothing to be impressed by either.

The prices at this restaurant continue to increase. While I enjoy the food, it may be more worthwhile to dine at a higher-end sit-down restaurant for the same price unless you have coupons. I used to frequent this place, but now I prefer going to fancier restaurants for better value. At these other establishments, you can choose from a variety of sides instead of being limited to just fries or onion rings.

Interesting enough I only decided to review because the strips might get away with being called near chicken. While there appears to be little chunks of chicken in the strips, there is a lot of something other than chicken meat in there. Perhaps it is solidified chicken paste. However they were hot. The BBQ sauce was ok. I like A&W root beer so that was a plus too. Will stick to burgers on any future visits. Another redeeming thing is their breakfast is a good value.

Ordered chicken strips and onion rings around 9:15 pm through the drive thru. Was told up front that the wait would be 5 minutes for fresh ones. No problem. They were hot and delicious. Kudos to the staff for warning me they would be hot because they sure were.
