''National'' Fast Food Outlets and the element they attract.

Ish66

I have lived in the same area for 5 years and have the following outlets a short walk or drive away. I have been to them all, Day and Night and have come to

the conclusion that each attracts a different class of people. I have..

Mc Donalds Burgers ets

Burgerking Burgers etc

Chopped Salad mainly and recently Neat Pizza

Hillbillys Chicken ala KFC type of stuff

Abrakebabra Kebabs, Burgers.

I have rated them through going in,,walking by and what a Garda I know says

There is nothing scientific about this and is just my opinion.

Best down to worst.

Chopped. Healthy,Business type who care about litter, environment, and seem to have a few bob

Mc Donalds. A lot of families with small kids,Married,Mortgage etc

Burgerking, A big rougher mostly single 20 somethings who will go to Mc Donalds when they have kids, Mortgage etc

Abracababra.A bit knackery but I see older people in there too but a bit dodgy at night I would say

Hillbillys. Total kip that attracts ''Souped Up'' Golf drivers with their mots who constantly rearrange their balls with a constant hand down the front of their

tracksuit bottoms, Spotless Nike runners and fond of a spliff (I like their burgers though)

I am only talking Daytime/Early evening but having said that I would prefer the last 2 if I was wobbley walking home late, With a few on board !🙃

I go into these places once or twice a year. What strikes me is how obese the majority of the customers are, which reminds me not to return more frequently.

I go into McDonalds several times a week. Their coffee is cheap and passable, and the Eurosaver menu fills a gap. I probably have a full meal there (usually a Big Mac with large fries and a Coke) once a week.

I weigh less than 10 stone.

Immediately I thought “the op must be one fat fecker”…

Then I realised Supermacs wasn’t on that list! 😳

Oh, aren't you special. I eat junk food at least 3 times per week and I am almost certain that I can outlift you in every lift and have lower bf % as well. These no fast food snowflakes are everywhere now, it tastes good and if you want to eat chicken and broccoli type food 99% of the time then good for you. I love the smugness and superiority complex.

I love that the OP felt the need to give us some exposition on what type of food McDonald's and Burger King serve.

If not ruining their immediate locality thery can be found ruining Irish bars overseas :D (I do love me hurling though.)

Can’t beat a snackbox with taco fries from Supermacs after a gallon of pints. Top class.

Supermacs has been letting anybody who wants sit down inside since July 26th while BK and McDonald's have been sending their customers out into the pissing rain. I've never seen Supermacs so busy in the day time because of it.

McDonald's is like a business that wants to fail these days. More and more of their outlets have moved to kiosk orders only, you can no longer order at the till (I absolutely wouldn't use the kiosk if the food was free, it's pathetic)

Even worse are the outlets with both kiosks and cashier and the amount of idiots using the kiosk, doing McDonald's job for them. If kiosk orders had a discount you could half understand it.

Not to mention the new model they brought in of making your order, the milling around waiting for it to be made. Bring back the heaters, the food was never in them more than a few minutes anyway.

Maccas is hardly failing, just replacing staff with technology.

But it will fail if they keep this nonsense up. I wouldn't use any business that forces me to use a self service kiosk, or which doesn't accept cash, out of principle. And plenty more won't either.

Wrong - its a global model and it works everywhere else. You sound like a grumpy old man.

Old man shouts at cloud.gif Their share price says otherwise.

Never use a self service kiosk? Must be an arse waiting for your bank to open to withdraw cash.
