    So even in 1989 Eddie Rockets was a rip off? A Big Mac in 1989 was £1.30

    You should have paraphrased Mr Wimpy. :)

    Of course it was expensive, it always had the name for it. Works out £4.64.

    Where do you get the £1.30 price? do you have links to old menus? I always like to see them.

    I think it was to do with the national burger day and how early they ran out of their quota for buy one get one free.

    Nope only some of them...a franchise owner lost the franchise


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,014 ✭✭✭Homelander


    Eddie Rockets was €6 for a meal 30 years ago? That does not seem right at all or even close to it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,114 ✭✭✭Pacifico


    Yeah it's unlikely they were looking for €6 back then ;)

    is this just a standard hamburger or are the veggie options included?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,418 ✭✭✭✭dodzy


    Blanchardstown this Thursday. With Krispy Kreme doing 1€/box of doughnuts for their anniversary and Empty Pockets opposite doing their ‘back to the 80s’........ It’ll be an asylum. Steer well clear.

    If you ordered a veggie burger in 1989 you got treated to a homophobic slur

    Excellent, that's my birthday. No sign of a notice for this when we had an 'early' birthday treat of a full priced Eddie's yesterday..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,295 ✭✭✭✭billyhead


    Is the menu available all day I.e can you get the meal as soon as it opens. Might head to Eddie Rockets to avail of the offer for breakfast.

    Was the burger regular sized or smaller? I mean the meat itself.

    In Tullamore, its full sized burger and fries. Genuinely but pleasantly surprised


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,498 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Someone in Charlestown refused the deal as it's a franchise. Aren't the majority franchises so how do you know which ones are doing this deal?
