"I was running late to an evening meeting so only had time for a fast food dinner. Passing by the other outlets in this area, noticed that this one did not have a long line, so decided to try them. Besides, it's been literally a couple of decades since I've been to an A&W location! Placing my order was quick as there was no one in front of me. I chose a chicken sandwich, rather than a burger on the theory that they might be more comfortable with that given that they are a joint location with a Long John Silver. The reason they were not busy appears to be because the locals know not to come there. The first thing that happened was that I was asked to pull up to the parking lot and wait. Twelve minutes later, a manager sauntered out and handed me my food. Now, this is a fast food place, so a twelve minute wait is an eternity in these kinds of places. What could have caused that wait? The chicken sandwich looked reasonable. It was a thick patty and well coated. It was accompanied by standard fixings of tomato, lettuce and mayonnaise. I took a bite and yelped! it has just come out of the fryer and was still screaming hot. The other problem with it was that the coating was incredibly salty. I could taste nothing but salt. The side dish was french fries. These were quite good, actually. They were bigger than McDonald's' and had a pleasant chew and flavor to them. Good thing because I was only able to eat half the sandwich due to the saltiness of the coating (even after I peeled it off! and so most of my meal was french fries! I will NOT be stopping here again. The long lines at the other places would have taken less time, and the food would have been better."
