Where I live, Wendy's is just about the worst burger place other than maybe Burger King. They've got good fries, but not the best, and their shakes are nothing like their former glory. (Still good though, as it's pretty hard to ruin ice cream.)

It's unfortunate that the rest of the world doesn't have Freddy's or In-n-Out.

I love both of them

I guess we’re spoiled for burgers in the US lmao

Culver’s is the GOAT

Haven't had Wendy's, BK, or McD's in a long time. Last time I had McD's I was disappointed. There's no I-n-O where I live, although there's at least one Freddy's. People around here really seem to like Culver's (which might be a little bit of novelty talking as it's new around here). I haven't tried either of those two.

I'm at the point where if I'm going to ingest the fat and calories that make up a cheeseburger, I either will grill it myself or go someplace that's not fast food. There's a couple of non-chain places around here that do a *really* good burger.

I think where Wendy's shines is their chicken sandwich offerings. That being said, no fast food is worth it. Just go to the pub and enjoy yourself.

Oh yea, it is kinda weird how Hardee’s is Carl’s Jr. on the west coast

Wendy’s is hit or miss. I implore you to try once, but honestly the burgers are bad. Fries are fine. Desserts are good tho, especially the frosty.

Would only go tho if it was the only option on a road trip.

I'd say Wendy's is below-average fast food here in Canada. Much worse than an A&W, about on par with McDonald's.

It can still be worthwhile to eat there because the value menu items are genuinely reasonably priced, but I imagine this will vary regionally. There are a few unique items on the menu (e.g., the "frosty" (malt chocolate shake), baked potato, etc.) that, while not being especially good, at least provide some variety. The regular burgers are too pricey for what they are, the fries aren't my favorite.

I think their fries are still pretty great, but I personally feel like the quality of their burgers has gone downhill, which is a shame because they were my favorite of the McDonald's/Burger King/Hardee's style of burger joint for years. I think Five Guy's burgers are better than all of these, but those are so comically overpriced that I never go there.

Back in the day their shakes and fries were fantastic. I don't believe that's the case anymore

In Caracas it was shite. In Canada it was perfectly average. What it will be like in the UK is anyone's guess.

If I'm going to have a burger it's usually Byron, and that's purely because of the chocolate milkshake. If I'm ever in Bath Schwartz Bros do a burger that is better by far than any of the big chains

Wendy’s can be pretty good for a standard burger chain. It usually beats out McDonalds or Burger King if they have a good manager. Five Guys is way overpriced for what they deliver.

The American burger chain "Wendy's" is expanding into the UK and will soon be opening a restaurant in Newcastle.

Is it worth going?

We have a Five Guys and their burgers are not bad, although I cannot eat the fries as I am allergic to peanuts and Five Guys is peanut-obsessed.
