Supermac's food on a plate

The King of Moo

Have you ever been in Supermac's and noticed people being served their food on a big white plate?

How does that work? I've noticed it's generally older people who seem more rural in their location, maybe making a trip to the city (I've observed this phenomenon in Galway). Are the staff members told that they're older and a but isolated and more set in their ways, and want their dinner on a plate?
Or do they have to ask for it on a plate?

It just looks weird seeing a normal ceramic plate in a fast-food place.

Agreed on the chips, Supermacs chips are far better than the crap in MacDonalds or Burger King or KFC

I'm surprised to see so much hatred for Supermacs here. Look, it is firmly in the franchised fast food category so its never going to be fine cuisine but it is far better than McD and BK. The chips are a decent thickness and actually look like they've been made from potato unlike the stringy floury crap you get in other places.

Their chicken breast sandwich burger is actually quite succulent (when not overcooked), and their curry is quite nasty.

But the most important thing is that you don't feel hungry again 45 mins after eating a Supermacs

oh..and they have the creamiest ice cream by far.

Ate in the one on Eyre square, once. It is literally 'Bog standard' food that I wouldnt give my dog

I like Supermacs. I'd prefer to eat there than any of the rest of the fast food outlets on offer. Their chips and their ice cream are particularly superior to McD's & Co.

Agreed when it comes to chicken burgers anyway.

Chicken burgers in BK and McDonald's and processed muck that doesn't even resemble chicken.

I have not eaten in either of the three in years so I am only going on hazy drunken memory. I stand by it though.

Dear lord no. Supermacs reminds me of an early 1990s Maccers or BK. Sh1tty plastic, luminous seating, trying desperately to be a mix between a local chipper and an international chain.

And people who look for "proper chipper burgers" I don't get it. If you like the taste, thats grand, but a chipper/supermacs burger has that taste because its maybe 80% beef, then eggs and fillers.

Something that would back up this is go to a Chipper/ Supermacs and order a plain burger with no bun, then do the same in a maccers or bk. Without all the supermacs burger sauce (which I love) you'll notice the patty is a thin, pale piece of crap. Mcd or whatever will also be thin, but better texture and the taste of beef. That "real burger" taste is spices and eggs added. Even here with Big Als "homestyle" burgers, scroll down to ingredients:

There was a time when you could justify eating in those kips, but a Quarter Pounder is almost €7 now.
I'd much rather Eddie's, GBK or even Nicks that eat the anemic muck that Supermacs and McDonald's have the cheek to call burgers.

mad muffin

Supermacs sauces are just too disgusting.

cloud493

I don't see how anyone could say mcdonalds is better than supremacs with a straight face. At least supremacs you know, tastes good, not bland or watery like that mcdonalds ****.

Had Fish & Chips there a few times and pretty sure they gave me a paper plate and plastic utensils.

Then, maybe I had a look about like I'd harm someone if they gave me real ones.

I haven't been in Supermacs for years. Does the food still have the laxative effect? As I recall it went through the body fairly quickly.

I sat down at a Supermacs once and was waiting forever for someone to take my order. *looks at watch and looks around nervously*

The one in Eyre Square Galway always has a lot of homeless people who avail of the paper with a cup of tea in the morning. I always feel a slight guilt when eating my super fry.

There are 4 Supermacs in Ballinasloe. The only decent thing about that festering knacker ridden hellhole.

Never heard of that practice.

If it pleases the elderly folk let them have it.

It is actually a decent breakfast surprisingly although the sausages are a bit meh.
