I went to my local A&W this week after reading the ugly complaint from squigles and they served up a beautiful plate of a cheeseburger with crispy french fries, made to order by a friendly short order cook. There were no kids working there at the time, just a friendly older woman and an older man who did the cooking. They don't hire kids to cook, just to serve the tables when the orders are ready. My server had a smile on her face and was very attentive to me. I even had a Classic Root Beer Float. YUMMM!
I enjoyed my lunch and went back to work with a smile. They surely deserve a thumbs up. A & W is the best chain restaurant. It's been around for a long long time since the 50's at least. Everyone goes to A &W and they are busy every day.
Just thought people would like to know not all A&W are the same. Mine doesn't have hot dogs, for example. They serve real beef burgers and fish.
