Food Places You'd Like To Try That Ireland Doesn't Have

    Following my other fast food poll I thought i'd create a thread on food places that Ireland doesn't have. These are not all fast food. There are loads more fast food and food restaurants just across the North Atlantic Ocean in the USA I've put along with some in the UK plus 1 in Germany. This time there's also the none option for people that are not interested.

    Franco Manca is badly needed to improve the standard of pizza.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy

    I've had an In and Out last year just next Universal Studios Hollywood no que in sight and my god it was gorgeous... Double Double animal style with animal style fries. It's not on the poll but a chick fil a too... Hmmmm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,825 ✭✭✭LirW


    Why tf is Nordsee even on the list? It's beyond rank and expensive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,713 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    Chick-fil-A is up there, heard good things.
    IHOP as well would be on my list.

    In n out is the obvious one, I have had it a few times and it is pretty tasty.
    Though I will say with Bunsen we are already pretty well off for top class burger places.

    Greggs, one of the few things I miss from the UK, the other being Bitter.

    So hard to find a pasty or pie in Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,787 ✭✭✭beejee


    Theres that cow dung and urine fast food empire in India?

    Youd know it tastes like shoite before even biting into it, and then you can take the piss out of the place all you like (free refills)

    This.

    Also somewhere like V-Rev or Temple of Seitan - vegan/vegetarian junk food.

    In n out burger is only in two or three states in the west within America so I highly doubt they'd expand outside America.

    I think they did have a pop up store here in Dublin though briefly

    Chilli's - Great spot (like a TGI Friday's mixed with a Wetherspoons).

    Tony's (I think) Crab Shack. Unbelievable!

    Taco Bell
    Red Lobster
    Bubba Gump

    All truly awful.

    The only one on the list worth trying is In n Out.

    In N Out and Wendy's.

    Five Guys (USA & UK)
    I did not know Ireland has Five Guys but one place I'd like to visit that the UK doesn't have is Supermacs.

    Eggslut ..... a franchise in the US. Looks the business :cool:

    I had Greggs for the first time this year. I thought it was pretty decent for what it is.

    There used to be a great pasty/pie place on Wicklow St in Dublin about 10 years ago. I remember it had massive portions too. Shame it closed down.

    I think the owner is in some sort of legal battle with McDonalds who are trying to prevent them expanding around Europe cos of the name similarity.

    Anyway, I think we should get a Jack in the Box (edit: and a Dennys)



    but most of all... I want to try Big Kahuna Burger :pac: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnb_3ibUp38
