    The East vs. West, Dublin vs. the Rest has been done to death here on Boards. So I really dont want to get into one of those debates. What I want to discuss is Supermacs popularity (or apparent lack of) outside of the West.

    In Galway a night out wouldnt be complete without a trip to Supermacs at the end of it. But in Dublin people seem to go for McDonalds. In fact generally people in Dublin (drunk or sober!) seem to choose McDonalds, Burger King over Supermacs. Madness I think but maybe thats just because I come from the Whest!!

    supermacs are scabby on portions and generally look dirty,us Dublin people aren't used to eating in dirty conditions.

    They have tiny portions and there burgers are nothing compared to burger King or McDonalds. How anyone could choose to go to supermacs is beyond me!

    Supermacs chips for the win:D

    Tasty and tempting food at...............


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭Celly Smunt


    i also don't like how when you order supermacs for delivery the drink comes with a straw already in the cup as opposed to sealed straw seperate.I'd rather not have my delivery driver drink my drink on the way.

    Problem with Supermacs is the quality varies alot between different outlets. It's a franchised business so depends how a particular branch is being run. The one in Eyre Square is decent and the one in O'Connell St isn't bad either. But eating in Supermacs in Tuam is only to be done when so drunk that you don't care what you're eating.

    Supermac's chips are way nicer than those rank, measly Burger King chips.

    but none are as good as mcdonalds chips dunked into curry sauce with loads of salt.

    Supermacs Chicken Breast Sandwich is quality


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,404 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    The one on O'Connell St seems to have some kind of beacon which attracts all the cities crazy people.

    How the fcuk do people eat any of that shi.te McD, BK or SM?

    If you are gonna clog your arteries with grease at least go for something somewhat free of shi.te and go to an Italian chipper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,129 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    Supermacs is just farm food!

    If I wanted to eat farm food I'd go to a f*cking farmers market!

    Research has shown that Supermacs is the healthiest fast food chain in operation in Ireland. As for some people suggesting their outlets are a bit dirty, I wonder who dirtied them?

    tbh they have some yummy food, and some stuff you wouldnt usually get in a fast food restaurant like curry chees chips :D, but theyre quiet expensive in comparison too. id usually pick mcds or bk over supermacs if i was out in town etc.

    Curry sauce isn't available in McDonalds

    This begs the question, do you go to another chipper after a night out to get the curry sauce for your Maccy Ds fries?

    Supermac's snackbox meal are savage, fecking love them. I'm a Dub and the one in town seems to do very good business so don't get this 'it's a culchie place'. Is it hell, I'm a Dub and know loads of Dubs who love a supermacs. Their craps are grand, the chips you get in Mc'Ds aren't even potatoes ffs:eek:

    Am I the only one who hates McDonalds chips? They're disgusting, they have some nice food, but the chips are horrible.

    It is - it comes in those little square containers. I prefer the sweet and sour sauce, though.

    Not potatoes? What are they? Rat tumors?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,318 ✭✭✭Fishooks12


    I love supermacs, as for the size of the portions I think you get a lot more bang for your buck than you do in MDs or BK

    You can get a meal for under a 5er

    a sausage meal with medium chips and drink is €2.95 FFS!
