UC, that's probably accurate considering I crushed one last night as well. :laugh:

Hi guys. I'm an Avs fan coming in peace but I may be moving to your great city in the very near future if an opportunity goes the way I hope. I didn't see any visiting Calgary threads so i'm curious where I would post if I had some questions about the city?

:laugh: I mean, when you have a coupon for 2 Teens for $6, how do you not dbl it up?

I actually have a real dislike for A&W. It always seems too greasy for me and I always end up feeling really gross afterwards. Only exception being the apple pies. I just counted back and I haven't had it for about 7 years now! Holy crap. I've cut McDonald's out too.

This might be a good place to start, but don't hesitate to ask anything:

Here is fine, we used to have a thread on that but not anymore. Ask away.

the worst is the 2 can dine coupons, but there is only one of me. It's like are daring me to run the gauntlet, who am I to disappoint?

Oh I've been down that gauntlet alone a few times :laugh:

I don't know if I'm alone, but other than Harvey's, A&W is my top choice. The quality of their beef IMO is the best of anywhere for fast food joints.

Haven't been to a fast food joint in literally years. This thread is making me want A&W though... It was always my favorite. Maybe soon.

A Harvey's opened less than 2 blocks from my house and I was so excited.

Then I ate there......

Hands down the worst Harvey's I have ever been to.

However the Pub 2 blocks the other way, actually does homemade burgers and they are just delicious and thick. It's nearly impossible to actually take a bite out of their double.

The Harvey's here had an e coli breakout. Ate there once since. SO once in the last 7 years.

I have never understood the Harvey's love. Had it a few times, was always very 'meh' inducing.
I'm still in love with Peter's, maybe part of it is childhood memories as I hear alot of people rag on it now, but it's still my favorite fast food anywhere.

Always go to Peters when I'm in Calgary, I have some great childhood memories from it. Possibly my favourite fast food joint ever.

I used to spend much of my summers at Pigeon Lake (Mam-e-o Beach) and we would stop in Calgary and go to Peters on the way there and the way back. It's one of the few things I remember doing with my grandmother

What do you mean by dbl? Deluxe Bacon Layers??

Well I just dbl'd my order on the Teen burgers, getting 2. I was craving A&W last night but couldn't get through both, so the other became my breakfast this morning.

I'm serious, Harvey's is so good because of their pickles. I know it sounds stupid, but the pickles and hot peppers together are awesome. But their beef doesn't touch A@W, it's more how they dress it up. But I haven't eaten there in a while.

I'm in agreement with Peter's being the best though. It's 5 minutes from my house so I definitely enjoy it!

Really? Did you go there only when it first opened?

:laugh: I went to Pigeon Lake in the summer and it had a huge blue alge breakout so no one could go in the water. Caught a few nice walleye!
