Everyone knows Checker's/Rally's sells the crack fries
My issue is that in L.A. they are generally located in borderline crack neighborhoods.

I like Chic Fil A, it has good chicken and lemonade. May be a bit overrated though.

McDonald's fries are overrated.
Five Guys is overpriced.
Chick-fil-A is good, but the line is always too long.

Yup agree, Five Guys isn't over rated, just way over priced. McDick's is over rated.

I disagree. The value of the food is a factor to consider and when it comes to really cheap burgers McDonald's has the best price:taste ratio.

The burgers aren't good but they're good for what you pay for them.

Nah. Overpriced, but not overrated. I'd say Wendy's is the most overrated chain. Maybe McDonald's a little bit too. Both depend on who is prepping the food and their freshness.

White Castle was considered fast food way back in the 20s and 30s.You don't need a drive thru or value menu to be considered fast food.

I'd say Chick-Fil-A is the most overrated. It's still great, of course. But the way people talk about it, you'd think it's the greatest food ever...when in reality it's just good fast food.

Five Guys isn't really overrated. It's pretty decent for what it is but it's expensive too. I like their shakes though.

5 guys isn't really fast food imo.

But it's good, don't know why so many people shit on it. Sure it's not as cheap as McDonald's but it's not insanely expensive either.

I dont really consider it fast food. No Five Guys I have seen has had a drive thru.

Anyway Id say their burgers are a tier above fast food quality but still not as good as a real restaurant/burger joint.

Chick-fil-A. The food just isn't that good. Don't understand why so many like it tbh.

Can't comment on In n Out because I've never seen one, not sure they even exist where I live.

Also Five Guys is good, though kinda pricey for the quality. Rather go to a local burger joint.

I don't know if it's overrated, but the prices are insane.

The most overrated is probably Wendy's or maybe CFA. People pretend Wendy's is better than other places, but it's the drizzling shits (literally). CFA isn't bad, but it's just praised like crazy (where the only real criticism comes from bigots knocking the fact it's run by Christians who actually practice what they preach, going so far as to give up massive amounts of money to not open on Sundays. That's a testament to a company walking the walk)

I'll do note that just because something is overrated doesn't mean it sucks, there's a reason it's overhyped.

With that said, yeah I agree that In N' Out and Chik Fil-A by far are the most overrated fast food chains ever. Stupidly long lines and the way people describe their food, you would think it's a food made in heaven or something.

And I know this is a hot take, but I honestly think the $1 mcchicken I ate at McDonalds gave me more bang for my book, in both value and taste, than a $4 chicken sandwich at Chik Fil-A.

tbh, I can't stand Wendys. Don't get me wrong, I like their Spicy Chicken Sandwiches, and their Frostys, but the beef burgers are disgusting where I live. There is literally no seasoning on them, and they taste very very bland.

I mean it's delicious for a reason. It's ultra greasy and has like twice the calories of the typical fast food burgers lol. I dunno about overpriced though. I guess my Five Guys haven't jacked up the price.

No, that honor goes to McDonalds. As long as I can remember, people treated their fries like crack, when theyre just ok fries.

good point, their fries are equal or worse than any fast food fries besides BK.

Their burgers are pretty good, while their fries are mediocre.

Their sizes are basically false advertising. If you order little fries, you're really getting large fries in terms of how many you get and how much it costs. It makes it so that I only go there once in a while, since a "little" meal is often too much for me and is on the pricey side.

The burgers are overrated, and the prices are ridiculous...but the fries though?

Ignoring cost, Five Guys fries are legitimately top tier. You can even tell they are made from higher grade stuff than the standard fast food spot.

Eh, to be fair, I usually go with the burgers so maybe the rest of their menu isn't fucking atrocious. I've tried maybe six locations across the US and Canada, so at this point I'm just writing off the entire chain.

I love Popeye's, but their prices are awful... although I guess most chains' prices are pretty bad now.
