Five guys fries are amazing. Also found a better fish place then long dong silver.

Five Guys is really good, but you have to force yourself to stop about 3/4 through or otherwise you done messed up.

Yeah and they literally pour a copious amount into the bag regardless of the size you ordered.

Used to go there a lot but got burned out on it. I probably need to go back again.

Not sure if stuff like Longboards count...

I want to give an extra special note to In-N-Out... which is the most over-rated shit of a fast food I've ever been to when I was in San Diego.
Fuck off with your lettuce bun.

Maybe you should get the bun next time then.

Quick service and fast casual fits as well.

Just make sure it is a chain.

Awww....

I suppose that's fair. Too bad McRib is only seasonal.

One of the best burgers Ive had was a 5 Guys in Novato, Ca. Ive been to several other 5 Guys and have always been disappointed. Fry cooking is a talent so not all restaurants are equal.

Freddys Steakburgers is awesome and they have great shoestring fries. I was in Idaho and went back for more. The chain hasn't made it out to Cali yet which is a shame.

Think Skippers still exists but they have been shrinking for years. All the ones here closed down some time ago.

Still plenty of Arctic Circles though, they're decent enough. Nothing to rave about but still good.

I’ve been a big fan of Chik Fil A for a long time, but this nonsense of closing all of their lobbies has made me stop going there entirely. My work truck is a little big for the drive through and I’m not going to risk someone clipping me in those double lane drive-thrus.

Not really fast food, but Papa Murphy's take and bake is really good. Cook when you're ready.

My local mom and pop Chinese restaurant rocks. Always great, always dependable.

That’s why I buy the seasoning packet and make my own Taco Bell at home, just get the shells, taco seasoning, Taco Bell sauce, Sour Cream, Nacho Cheese and it tastes like Taco Bell was meant to taste.

Forgot another one: Oscar's Pier 83 is the best fast food chain fish and chips joint.

There is one Arctic Circle in WA, in Yakima. Not sure about Skipper's.
