A & W Restaurant - Saint-Hyacinthe

I took a drive thru chicken burger meal and the bread was obviously rotten . It was dotted with big green spots of mold. The cooks don’t care. Don’t go there.

I recently stopped by to grab a coffee at this restaurant. There was only one person in front of me, but it took a long time to be served and I felt like I was inconveniencing the young lady working there. I was quite disappointed with the experience.

During our business trip to Saint-Hyacinthe, we decided to have lunch at A&W. This location is conveniently located near our hotel and is the only A&W in the area. One of my colleagues really enjoys their burgers, but personally, I don't find them to be anything special. While A&W advertises their meat as hormone-free, I see it as just a marketing strategy to stand out from their competitors. In my opinion, their burgers are just as bland as others in the industry, but they are more expensive. I've always wondered why fast food restaurants don't use spices to enhance the taste of their meat. However, I must commend A&W on their tasty onion rings. Unfortunately, they do not accept American Express and during our visit, they were unable to process any credit card transactions, which was frustrating. I probably wouldn't choose to eat at A&W unless I had no other options available.

We stopped by this restaurant for a quick lunch. It brought back good memories of the drive-in at A&W. The food was decent, but unfortunately, my poutine was cold. The rest of my order was hot. The restaurant is spacious with an outdoor terrace, and there is easy access with plenty of parking spaces available.

I found the A W a bit different here than back in the States. This location is basically a chicken sandwich and burger joint. No ice cream or ice cream floats served but it does have that great tasting A W root beer served in a chilled mug. My Uncle Burger was just okay. That said, I have to admit the root beer was the best part of my meal.
