Five Guys FTW. I don't care about the drive thru rule. I'd drive thru the wall to get it if I had to.

There is a Fat Burger soon opening near me. It sounds nasty for wholesomeness; is it? With a Fat Burger opening soon and a Harvey's being built, I'm doomed.

On the quality scale, I'd put Fatburger above your run-of-the-mill places like McDonald's, Wendy's, BK, and A&W, but below Five Guys and Smashburger.

If you're the type of person who likes a lot of different toppings, Fatburger is great.

Best fast food burger: 5 Guys

Best fast food burger with a drive thru: Wendy's but without the bun being buttered. So disgusting with butter. As if the juiciest burger needs more grease.

Burger King (Whopper) is my favorite for a drivethru burger. Mozza burger from A&W is also quite tasty.

P.S. Regarding Five Guys -- both times I've had a "regular" (double) burger and it ended up being a sloppy mess. Is the trick to get a "small" (single) burger? Five Guys fries are awesome though.

It's supposed to be a sloppy mess that's what makes it so delicious

i tried the new Wendy's poutine that they're advertising, and it was actually one of the best poutines i've had in years. so many places either overcook the fries, don't have enough gravy or cheese, or don't use real cheese curds. Wendy's nailed it on all counts, it was delicious

now i just have to resist the urge to go back everyday

The butter chicken poutine from New York Fries is pretty amazing.

Fries + butter chicken + cheese curds = clusterfata of tastiness.

add A&W to the list. i'll give Wendy's the slight nod for having better fries, but A&W's poutine is right up there. funny how fast food restaurants can make a better poutine than any pub i've been to in recent memory. and they even beat the Poutinery on 17th ave (although that's not hard to do, man they're terrible)
