I remember Wendy's in the UK many years ago and then they fizzled out. Quite a few years later, I was working in the USA and I discovered they were still alive and well. Glad to see them back here, as I always thought they had the edge over McDonalds and Burger King.
Yes,Most definitely pure quality. Glad they are back.,Do Rrmember though most of the numpties think Mcd's is a gourmet meal , lived on pot noodles 6 days a week & porrdge ,Wendy's is a very confusing name for them & resl food far to rich.😂
@@adamsmithyy67In Canada 6 pieces n their free sauce( sort of gravy) $25 ! Not inexpensive, n a bit greasy if u wanna eat healthy! I think food is cooked in seed oil which isn't very healthy! Don't waste your time with Jolibees!
I used to deliver to Wendy's and can confirm that the beef patties are delivered fresh and chilled and not frozen. So when you eat the burger you'll noticed the difference between other cheaper burgers.
Thing is, Maccies still tastes better. Oh sure its garbage, e numbers, salt, fat and cholesterol, ask me if I care? What matters is how happy it makes my mouth hole and wimpy and wendys always fell flat, school lunch of fast food, and considering fast food is the school lunch of foods already, thats an achievement to manage to be THAT unremarkable
You can cure that mental problem ( I use that term specifically) by changing your eating habits. For example just eat meat for 3 days. no seasonings and then on day 4 add a little salt.. WOW! salty!!!!!!!! you think it tastes good but really when you eat clean it tastes like the sh1t it is! @@GrumpyMunkyGameDesign
Another good video mate. The wall behind the ordering kiosks reminded me of the gameshow Blockbusters #IYKYK Btw there's still a few Wimpy's about with one nog so far from Leeds in Huddersfield town centre! 😊👍
The nicest Britt I know, apart from my sister in law. I don't care how it tastes, just your interaction with people makes me watch your channel. A diamond in a crude world.
I'm not british or even english speaking for that matter, but this man is just so wholesome and an absolute great human being. This is the greatest food reviewer i've ever came across on the YT
We used to have a Wendys in Doncaster in the early nineties. I used to love their build your own burger approach, and the square burger patties. No idea why, but it wasn't open for very long, it was a shame really because their burgers were spot on, glad to see Wendys back in the UK.
yeah, used to work in the Wendys in Leeds in the 90s. Worked in the donnie restaurant for a day. It had 2 customers all day! Not surprised in closed down.
I tried a Wendy's a few months ago when I was in London. It was okay, but nothing to write to home about. Did however have one in my local high street in the late 90s, when I was in my teens. My brother and I loved the milkshakes! They were quite runny but, as Danny say, "full of flavour"! I now live near a Wimpy which is also another childhood staple. And one that I can share with my parents as it came into being during their childhoods!
The thing about this is that it's not a milkshake. It's called a 'Frosty' and there's only one flavor of Frosty... chocolate. I can get why people are confused, but it's not a milkshake by any means. It's soft-serve chocolate ice cream.
One thing I noticed in this video was here in the US fast food restaurants are typically pull doors when entering and push when exiting which makes sense as when entering your hands are usually free and when exiting they aren’t typically free.
Wendys is one of my fave treats when on hols in the US. Well pleased to find out theres several in East Anglia - one in Colchester, one at Brampton Services near Huntingdon & one in Peterborough. Now I can get a Daves Double fix any time.
Ah, I didn’t know, that’s down the bottom of the A14, then. I moved from East Northants and am in South Northants. I don’t go down the A1 to London anymore, but the M1. It’s probably why I’ve not noticed them!
Danny, you mentioned Wimpy in the video towards the start at 1:36. I've been to Wimpy, my nearest one being Milford, Stafford in the West Midlands. Was very good when I went for the very first time. Never been to a Wendy's though
Never had Wendys in the 80s but LOVED Wimpys. I always remember Wimpys being reasonably priced too. Speaking of the 80s 5:17 - that wall reminded me of the gameshow Blockbusters.
I had one for the first time in many years recently, the taste is definitely still there, there's just something about those brown buns! However, they're no longer that cheap, unfortunately. TBF nowhere is really cheap anymore, but i was a little taken back at a 1/4 pound burger meal being not far off £15
I remember having a Wendy's in Leeds in around 1995. Looks to be roughly in the same place, opposite the Old Odeon Cinema. It was quite nice. Only one I had but I remember them being square and then they suddenly vanished. Happy days! Might have to check this out again in 2025!
OK, Danny, When I want burger and chips, I go to my local farm shop the Springhead at Mount Tabor, it is 3 miles north west of Halifax. Delicious freshly made burgers from their own farm and proper chips made from freshly cut potatoes, they serve John Willie Lees fine ales too. It is well worth a visit.
Hi Danny. Another great video. I used to live in Birmingham and in fact you visited a restaurant 1/2 a mile from our house at Munchbox, Kingstanding. But last year my American wife and I moved to Indianapolis and so Wendy's is about every half a mile on the various roads by our house. Most fast food here is done as drive through, and our local is open to late. We love the Baconator and have to say that the UK one looked quite small compared to the monster we get but I was surprised by how cheap your meal was. Its REALLY expensive over here. The selection is slightly different for breakfasts here. However most of it looked the same on the screen you were using. I have to say I really love Wendys and its far better than McD's and to some extent Burger King. We have SO many to choose from that next time you are in the US you should do a single "street" and see how many kinds of food you can try!
Wimpys still exist in some places, if you ever fancy a trip to Essex, there are 2 in Southend. I like to go for the nostalgia, loved them growing up in Bristol
I grew up in Canada and we didn't have Wendy's in our town for the longest time. When we finally got one , the lineups were ridiculous. I still eat at Wendy's from time to time. If you ever come across an A&W in your travels, it's definitely worth a stop.
@@-suphurWas there a lot of incest going on in the A&W family, as they did teen burger, moma burger, popa burger, uncle ,maybe even granny n grandpa got in there! I liked that sometimes they would do fried caramelized onions on your burgers! LOL!!!
I remember the old Wendy’s in Leeds, and I’m sure there was also one in Bradford. Must admit it was a real treat when I got to go there as the Mrs wasn’t keen, but I loved the burgers 🤤
I once had a Wendy’s Burger in Wood Green in London in about 1997/8 and remember it being square and quite tasty. That’s the only time I’ve ever had a Wendy’s burger.
If you love a good peppery burger and you're ever in western Kentucky, come to Calvert Drive-Inn movie theater. Get a double cheese with extra black pepper(didn't have to say extra black pepper 20 years ago, people became blander). It's one of the top 3 burgers within a 250 mile radius!
Danny the chocolate is called a "Frosty". It is kind of a cross between a thick milkshake and Ice cream. My husband and I like to take our grandchildren to get a Frosty.
Oh there's a Jollibee behind you. Didn't know they had restaurants in the UK. Jollibee is popular fast food chain from the Philippines. Maybe give that a try sometime too?
I went to a Wendys near me (Kingswood / Hull) and i thought it was alright. Not terrible but nothing special. Didnt help we were in the queue for almost 2 hours 😂. Apparently it's the biggest Wendy's not just in the UK, but also Globally.
I actually had a Wimpy for the first time in many years the other day, still as amazing as ever, although i did get caught off guard as i forgot it was table service lol. I will say, while it still tasted amazing, much like everything else, the price has shot up! Still not tried Wendys yet as there's none too near me, so interesting to see Dannys thoughts on it.
@@howardbeatman2820 The funny thing is, i think a lot of us Brits think of Wimpy as being British, due to them serving your burgers and chips on a real plate, with real cutlery and being bought to your table, assuming you eat in of course, and that combined with them being around for a long time, means myself and most people i know just think of them as British. However, when you look it up, they're apparently American, even though most Americans don't seem to have heard of them.
I think the same thing happened in Germany. I remember a Wendy's close-ish to where I grew up, and at some point before the 90s it was gone and replaced by a Pizza Hut. They're still one of my favorite fall-backs in the US.
i only ever had WENDY'S from the one that was in waterloo train station, back in the 80s when i was skateboarding around london with the guys. :-) would love to see them come back. also if you want a wimpy, there is one in cheshunt old pond. bin the same family over 50 years.
Ah, most of the commentators are spring chickens like you Dan. Wendy's started up in UK in 1969, I went to the one in Hammonds (massive dept. store in Hull) for my 10th birthday, with my dad. In them days it were burger or hotdog wi chips or chips, and you could have brown or red sauce. If you'd offered them chilli they'd have run a flippin' mile, but I'll tell you what; the burgers WERE square, square as t'old customers. 🤣Nice one Danny! ⭐👍
I am afraid you are wrong about Wendy’s in the UK in 1969 the first one opened in Ohio in November of 1969,they opened in the UK in 1980-1986,then again in 1992-2000,and again in 2022,and like you I’m not a spring chicken.😊😊
@sandrojones8068 I think so but I don't remember seeing fries covered in chili on the menue. Seems like might be more of a UK thing. When I was still a teenager I worked at a Wendys. What Danny said about the chili being made from ground up old burgers is very true.
"Infamous?" is it infamous? The Wendy's in Lincoln had good experiences there. Delivered completely fresh hot, well served, and even very politely by whoever was serving "Sorry about the wait" like, thanks but this was quicker than anything I've had from BK or KFC or any other chain.
Infamous to me is that Wendy's got gutted by a TV programme where their freezers filled with cancerous horse carcasses were featured. I seem to be the only person who remembers this. The same team went on to try & bring down Walls' sausages though I can't recall the precise reason.
We've had it back in London for a while, and as someone with American partner so had it a lot in the states I was very excited. I think it fills that gap that Burger King used to be before they only appeared at train stations and was expensively disaspointing, not quite as expensive as the proper burger casual restaurants like GBK or even five guys but a tad better than McDonalds and more fill.
Great to see Wendy’s again - needs to open up a branch in Glasgow. I always loved Wendy’s when they were in UK. Last one I had was in Kuala Lumpur. Many thanks.
Here in the USA Wendy's are pretty decent, Id always rate them better than Mc D and Burger King, they never make me happy, very over priced and always wish Id never stopped to eat there. Wendy's fries and burgers are usually good, the chicken is decent but your's looked thinner, The chicken burger prices seemed a bit higher, My wife always gets a cup of Chili on the side and loves it, Ours until recent was only 99 cents, so £4 looks spendy to us... I dislike the screen ordering as everyone touches them then uses those fingers to eat with, not a good idea in this day and age, I wonder how these places can think that's OK, I order from a person, if its screen only I leave. Your score was fair, thanks Danny.
so great to see you trying wendys. tried it back in states. we got near my place and it tasty as the one in the states. but the prices is a bit higher then us. Wish there was more saver meals. Love those chill corn cane alson known as dirty fires . the jacket potato was nicee but same its not $1 or 89c like in usa
I worked at a Wendys in the early 80s when I was in uni. Wendy's was a franchise of Whitbreads and every now and again, senior people from the States would come over to check the standards in each store - they were all stereotypical senior execs with crew cuts and moustaches. Regardless of what you think of fast food, standards were kept really high. The food was prepped fresh everyday - all salad bar items, burgers were pressed, bacon cooked on the grill and buns put into warmers. The square burgers come out of the pressing machine that shape and were cooked pretty much fresh to order on a cast-oron grill. I can still remember the order for assembling a burger; mayo on the bottom bun, lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup on the top bun and mustard on the burger! It's how I do them still. Danny's right about the chilli which is made from overcooked burgers which are recooked into the chilli (which really makes sense). Profit was always an issue for Whitbreads and the food costs were pretty high - I think staff were literally eating the profits. Had a great time working there!
Is Danny reviewing franchised chains now? This week Wendy's next week McDonald's 😝 If this is a new theme, then try to find a Wimpy. There are only 62 Wimpy franchisees left in the UK and I think most of them are down south; I have 3 of them within a short (10 to 15 minutes) driving distance. I think we have all fallen victim to these mass produce chains and I must admit, those burgers made me feel seriously damn hungry. Thick ice-cream in a cup is not a drink!
I'd like to see more kiosk type ordering in America. The minimum wage for the idiots working there is $16.28. The workers act like this is their lifetime job and are as arrogant as you've ever seen. I dont do fast food in the winter trying not to get sick from the workers breathing on everything. And yes, every order is screwed up in some way.
You would be smart to check your facts before you run your mouth. The 2024 minimum wage for Washington State in 2024 is in fact $16.28 per hour. Keep running your face.@@EnterShikari01
I'm glad you came on to correct me. I'm here in Washington State in fact the minimum wage is $16.28 for 2024. Thank you very much for being the lackadaisical fact checker. @@EnterShikari01
As an American, I guarantee it's not the norm to dip our french fries in the chocolate drink which is called a 'Frosty'. In all, Wendy's does have one of the better fast food and cheap hamburgers.
Jolibee! It is right next to the Wendy's! You MUST try that. It is the Philippines number one favorite takeaway. They are known for their chicken. In the Philippines they serve it with rice and gravy. Not sure if they do that outside of the islands. Check out their deserts too. They have mango apple pie. I am curious what it would be like there. Take care and love the videos! Jolibee is . Please please ❤️
Five Guys Company are popping up Wendy's all over Yorkshire on my travels, got one open in Hull already when visiting family taking over papas fish & Chips shops, which you did an review on not long a go, Danny
you are spot on for the burgers in the chili, any burgers that dont sell during their time on the grill, get crumbled and added to the next batch of chili
Credibility falling faster than a flying crowbar. 9/10 for a 21 quid meal at Wendy's?? No way to justify the price or the bottom-of-the-barrel ingredients.
Same location on Briggate in Leeds as it was in the 1990's. Was always the best burger chain for me. One of the best things was the salad bar, don't seem to have that anymore which is a shame.
Only been watching this 90s and had to watch I loved Wendy’s they were my favourite in the 80’s not had one in decades I hope they come to my part of London
Cant see any chain burger place can deserving a 9 out of 10. The burgers are always overcooked. Had Wendy's once in the USA and wasn't impressed it was just the same as McDonald's and Burger King.
You really are sad to have an issue with him reviewing a chicken burger. Funny how you don't comment on other video's where he doesn't review chicken burgers.
I think I watch Danny more for his interactions with the public than his food reviews. Such a legend.
Right !!! fabulous the people in the UK are funny
A fat northerner eating in a highstreet saying that the food is "nice" is a legend? Amazing.
Danny could have tea n crumpets with the queen if she were still around!

same went to the usa once and thought it was pretty nice. It was like when Burger King used to be really good
@@WilkesyBRAH but a lot cheaper than 5 guys
Wendys are number 3 in the world for burgers after Mc Donalds and Burger King.

However, when you look it up, they're apparently American, even though most Americans don't seem to have heard of them.
named after Wimpy from popeye !@@markc1793
I think the same thing happened in Germany. I remember a Wendy's close-ish to where I grew up, and at some point before the 90s it was gone and replaced by a Pizza Hut. They're still one of my favorite fall-backs in the US.
Danny, did you know that Wendy's collar spells out "MOM" to remind customers of home cooking goodness?
i only ever had WENDY'S from the one that was in waterloo train station, back in the 80s when i was skateboarding around london with the guys. :-) would love to see them come back. also if you want a wimpy, there is one in cheshunt old pond. bin the same family over 50 years.
Ah, most of the commentators are spring chickens like you Dan. Wendy's started up in UK in 1969, I went to the one in Hammonds (massive dept. store in Hull) for my 10th birthday, with my dad. In them days it were burger or hotdog wi chips or chips, and you could have brown or red sauce. If you'd offered them chilli they'd have run a flippin' mile, but I'll tell you what; the burgers WERE square, square as t'old customers. 🤣Nice one Danny! ⭐👍
I am afraid you are wrong about Wendy’s in the UK in 1969 the first one opened in Ohio in November of 1969,they opened in the UK in 1980-1986,then again in 1992-2000,and again in 2022,and like you I’m not a spring chicken.😊😊
much love Danny. hope you come to Chicago sometime
We went there yesterday , amazing , baconator cheese chips , double burger , nuggets and chicken burger , best I've tasted ♥️
Wendys, Wimpy and Little Chef, a staple of the British motorway network
If I can find a Wendys near me, i'll try it. Thanks Danny!
We went to Wendy's 16 years ago in Las Vegas and had the baconator 😂 my husband was so obsessed, he printed off a picture and put it on our dresser 😂
Since I'm in the US, not the UK, I think this is the first place you've eaten at that I can eat at too 😀 I normally eat at Wendy"s once a week.
Does the food look the same?
@sandrojones8068 I think so but I don't remember seeing fries covered in chili on the menue. Seems like might be more of a UK thing. When I was still a teenager I worked at a Wendys. What Danny said about the chili being made from ground up old burgers is very true.
Once a week.
Where else you eat the other 6 days
Hello from Minnesota. I'm watching Wendy's commercials on TV tonight. Late Saturday night 11 pm.
"Infamous?" is it infamous? The Wendy's in Lincoln had good experiences there. Delivered completely fresh hot, well served, and even very politely by whoever was serving "Sorry about the wait" like, thanks but this was quicker than anything I've had from BK or KFC or any other chain.
infamously high prices I imagine, the burgers are about 2 times the price of any other place.
Infamous to me is that Wendy's got gutted by a TV programme where their freezers filled with cancerous horse carcasses were featured. I seem to be the only person who remembers this. The same team went on to try & bring down Walls' sausages though I can't recall the precise reason.
I miss Wendy, they suddenly disappeared in my town down south
Hull now has the biggest Wendy's in the world.... And it's always packed out
Wonderful
Shame it's s**thole 🤣
that was very kind thing that the lad gave Danny a fork when he couldn't get one, and who says England has no heroes,..............marius(punk rules).
Forks and such are available. He would have had to grab what he wanted as he did napkins.
We've had it back in London for a while, and as someone with American partner so had it a lot in the states I was very excited. I think it fills that gap that Burger King used to be before they only appeared at train stations and was expensively disaspointing, not quite as expensive as the proper burger casual restaurants like GBK or even five guys but a tad better than McDonalds and more fill.
Great to see Wendy’s again - needs to open up a branch in Glasgow.
I always loved Wendy’s when they were in UK. Last one I had was in Kuala Lumpur.
Many thanks.
Here in the USA Wendy's are pretty decent, Id always rate them better than Mc D and Burger King, they never make me happy, very over priced and always wish Id never stopped to eat there.
Wendy's fries and burgers are usually good, the chicken is decent but your's looked thinner, The chicken burger prices seemed a bit higher, My wife always gets a cup of Chili on the side and loves it, Ours until recent was only 99 cents, so £4 looks spendy to us...
I dislike the screen ordering as everyone touches them then uses those fingers to eat with, not a good idea in this day and age, I wonder how these places can think that's OK, I order from a person, if its screen only I leave.
Your score was fair, thanks Danny.
so great to see you trying wendys. tried it back in states. we got near my place and it tasty as the one in the states. but the prices is a bit higher then us. Wish there was more saver meals. Love those chill corn cane alson known as dirty fires . the jacket potato was nicee but same its not $1 or 89c like in usa
Treat yourself to Daves Double burger Danny. So much better than most fast food burgers
I worked at a Wendys in the early 80s when I was in uni. Wendy's was a franchise of Whitbreads and every now and again, senior people from the States would come over to check the standards in each store - they were all stereotypical senior execs with crew cuts and moustaches. Regardless of what you think of fast food, standards were kept really high. The food was prepped fresh everyday - all salad bar items, burgers were pressed, bacon cooked on the grill and buns put into warmers. The square burgers come out of the pressing machine that shape and were cooked pretty much fresh to order on a cast-oron grill. I can still remember the order for assembling a burger; mayo on the bottom bun, lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup on the top bun and mustard on the burger! It's how I do them still. Danny's right about the chilli which is made from overcooked burgers which are recooked into the chilli (which really makes sense). Profit was always an issue for Whitbreads and the food costs were pretty high - I think staff were literally eating the profits. Had a great time working there!
Backs up what I was saying in other comments where people said they were not in the UK. They certainly were and were better than McDonalds by miles
8:59 table set up at Wendys.
11:17 £21 food displayed.
13:12 whistle wetted.
21:26 the rating.
Yaaaaawwwwwwnnnnnnn
@@kievb8221 - If the timestamps aren't relevant to you, just ignore the comment. Why hassle the person for making them? 😂
Danny could read out of a telephone book and make that entertaining, so yeah Dannys on point for his ability to interact with ppl!
£21 is still steep I think for something that's a standard fast food place.
He paid £20 for just a burger with no fries the other week though..
Loving the food reviews and videos
I need to try more places and travel
Camera Man have any food? X
Is Danny reviewing franchised chains now? This week Wendy's next week McDonald's 😝 If this is a new theme, then try to find a Wimpy. There are only 62 Wimpy franchisees left in the UK and I think most of them are down south; I have 3 of them within a short (10 to 15 minutes) driving distance.
I think we have all fallen victim to these mass produce chains and I must admit, those burgers made me feel seriously damn hungry.
Thick ice-cream in a cup is not a drink!
Curious is the wendys in the uk using british bacon or american? Ide love a british bacon one because not a fan of American bacon.
I’m from the USA and I have never dipped my fries in a milkshake and I don’t know anybody who does - just sayin’ 😂
Good to see you check out Wendys there we have one here in Stratford London too & theres a few Wimpy bars still about too Danny
I'd like to see more kiosk type ordering in America. The minimum wage for the idiots working there is $16.28. The workers act like this is their lifetime job and are as arrogant as you've ever seen. I dont do fast food in the winter trying not to get sick from the workers breathing on everything. And yes, every order is screwed up in some way.
The federal minimum wage is $7.25. Many individual states have their own set minimum wage, it varies. There is no minimum of $16.28.
You would be smart to check your facts before you run your mouth. The 2024 minimum wage for Washington State in 2024 is in fact $16.28 per hour. Keep running your face.@@EnterShikari01
I'm glad you came on to correct me. I'm here in Washington State in fact the minimum wage is $16.28 for 2024. Thank you very much for being the lackadaisical fact checker. @@EnterShikari01
The guy walking behind you at 4:00 plays in a jive band called the Jive Aces pretty popular Jive band and I bet you didn't realise :)
Infamous means famous for doing something bad 😂😂
'With negative connotation' ...😉
They did close twice...
As a teenager some 50years + ago we used to go enmass to Wimpy. The best years of my life. Are you going to do a Wimpy visit . From a Leeds lad.
I work at wendys. The chilli cheese fries are honestly one of the best on the menu.
Wendy's chilli is amazing
Top vid from a top bloke. Did you say the meat in the baconizer was flame broiled? Out my way in Canada they don’t do it that way but I wish they did.
As an American, I guarantee it's not the norm to dip our french fries in the chocolate drink which is called a 'Frosty'. In all, Wendy's does have one of the better fast food and cheap hamburgers.
As an a american, i guarantee it is 😂. Everyone does it lmao
cheap? they are like double the price of most other burger places lol
Jolibee! It is right next to the Wendy's! You MUST try that. It is the Philippines number one favorite takeaway. They are known for their chicken.
In the Philippines they serve it with rice and gravy. Not sure if they do that outside of the islands. Check out their deserts too. They have mango apple pie. I am curious what it would be like there.
Take care and love the videos!
Jolibee is . Please please ❤️
Get yourself to Latif’s Indian In stoke
That would be banging I love Latifs inspired
Wow me too 😊
Latifs inspired is great!
Blimey - too cold for me to eat outdoors at the moment ... you're made of stern stuff!
God bless you, luv 🙏
I prefer the Dave's Single. Double burger is too much meat.
Ya. Whatever happened to just having regular sized food, and regular sized people?
Five Guys Company are popping up Wendy's all over Yorkshire on my travels, got one open in Hull already when visiting family taking over papas fish & Chips shops, which you did an review on not long a go, Danny
Called to a few of your food reviews…. And their shit or never got what you want…. They only do it perfectly cos ya videoing 65% or SHIT
you are spot on for the burgers in the chili, any burgers that dont sell during their time on the grill, get crumbled and added to the next batch of chili
BRIT-ish
Credibility falling faster than a flying crowbar. 9/10 for a 21 quid meal at Wendy's??
No way to justify the price or the bottom-of-the-barrel ingredients.
Are you an expert like stick to heavy metal
Same location on Briggate in Leeds as it was in the 1990's. Was always the best burger chain for me. One of the best things was the salad bar, don't seem to have that anymore which is a shame.
dipping chips into a shake! wtf?
Never seen it. Danny your wrong.
Only been watching this 90s and had to watch I loved Wendy’s they were my favourite in the 80’s not had one in decades I hope they come to my part of London
Cant see any chain burger place can deserving a 9 out of 10. The burgers are always overcooked. Had Wendy's once in the USA and wasn't impressed it was just the same as McDonald's and Burger King.
Don't you think that "the burgers are always overcooked", for EVERY place EVERYWHERE, might be a bit of an uneducated generalisation?
@@garlichr uneducated ? What have you got a phd from burger university.
loved old wendy's back in the 90s.
Rate My chicken burger returns!
You really are sad to have an issue with him reviewing a chicken burger. Funny how you don't comment on other video's where he doesn't review chicken burgers.
ah walked past my favourite two thai spots in leeds there, zaap thai and thai a roy dee - both great, would you or have you ever done thai food Danny?
Not had a Wendy's in years and didn't know they came back to Leeds. Will definitely drop in for the classic. :)
Do some research, and score properly.
Also learn what infamous means.wait for the hats.
The shake is a frosty! Loved the video glad to see Wendy’s in the uk
Reviews any old 💩 now
Had one in Lincoln a few weeks ago and it's fantastic, definitely going back at some point. Burgers and chips taste fresh which is what you want
