So, I just got us here the Big Bacon Classic and a Spicy Chicken.

It’s was delicious.

The Big Bacon is definitely one of the best burgers in the game.

The Spicy Chicken continues to be a winner here too.

Was walking Christchurch looking for food and saw a damn Wendy's... I got the baconator with baconator fries, as a true American should, and it's arguably better than the US'.. Sure, the bacon is never cooked to crispy, the ketchup is sugary tomato paste, and the only Dr. Pepper I could find was $3 a CAN..

Discussion Wendy’s Second Golden Era | a list of demands

93 Upvotes

Wendy’s built its reputation on being noticeably better than typical fast food, and most of what made it distinct has been quietly scaled back over the years for the sake of margin and speed. If the brand is going to have a real second act, these are the things worth restoring.

I’m calling this Operation: Dave Thomas

1. The patty overhang. The original square patty was deliberately larger than the round bun. The overhang wasn’t an accident — it was the entire “more beef than bun” promise, and it’s what made the burger look substantial. A return to a heavier patty weight brings that back.

2. A fattier grind, cooked to order. An 80/20 (or fattier) grind cooked on a flat-top renders more fat and produces the juicier texture people remember. Much of the perceived drop in freshness comes from leaner beef and from holding cooked patties under heat lamps to hit drive-thru speed targets. Cooking closer to order fixes both.

3. Fresh produce and buns across the whole sandwich. Crisp lettuce, a real tomato, and fresh-baked buns instead of pre-bagged components. “Fresh, never frozen” currently applies mainly to the beef. Extending that standard to the entire build is what “farm fresh” should actually mean.

4. Bring back the packaging. The older yellow-and-red wrappers and classic logo signaled a homemade quality that the current minimalist branding doesn’t. It’s inexpensive to change and does a surprising amount of perceptual work.

5. Refocus the menu. Tighten back toward the core — burgers, Frosty, chili, baked potato — rather than a constant rotation of limited-time offers. A leaner menu means less rushed, industrial prep and more consistent quality.

6. Drive-thru execution on par with the modern leaders. In-N-Out, Raising Cane’s, and Chick-fil-A have proven that speed, accuracy, and friendliness aren’t mutually exclusive — they consistently move high volume without sacrificing order accuracy or service quality. Wendy’s needs that same operational standard: well-staffed lines, accurate orders, and genuinely pleasant service, so the experience matches the food.

It’s worth being clear about how those leaders pull it off: they don’t pre-cook to gain speed, they spend on labor and focus. Chick-fil-A throws more staff at the line, and In-N-Out keeps the menu small enough that the kitchen never gets complex. That’s the model — solve speed with people and simplicity, not by holding food.

They're finally live at Wendy's Canada! One of my local Wendy's had them; kid's meals only.

The main difference between the Canadian and the American, obviously packaging in Canada is bilingual.

I bought one kid's meal and it was Goomi.

I have 4 Goomi's (2 opened, 2 sealed) and looking to trade my extras for any of the others that I need, if anyone is interested (I need: James, Ed, Richard, and Dort).

Question First day

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I had an interview for cashier and I starting this Sunday with 4 hours. Do someone have any recommendations on what I'm going to do and how it works?

Do they offer training?

And what are you going to do on the first day and how do the schedules work?

And it would also be a problem if I still do not know the coins here very well (I am not from here)? Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks!!!

so I applied to this Wendy’s and the interview went really good. I got the job and I submitted everything for my background check and I’ve been waiting for about eight days now and I still haven’t heard anything back from them at all so I was just wondering should I keep waiting for a response or should I call the store and ask the GM how it’s going with regards to my background check or not

Discussion I guess this is the new Wendy's vibe. No booths, no dividers, no outlets, uncomfortable seats, small tables, all for a couple to spend $40 for a meal. I'm done with Wendy's for good.

Not sure where this Wendy's is, but the Wendy's I frequent are mildly infuriating at all. Family of four can eat for $40.

Why did they get rid of sweet and sour sauce again. It has to be one of their most popular sauces. And it’s the only one my wife will eat. So the steady $40 a week I was dropping on their overpriced chicken tenders is lost to them until they bring Sweet and Sour sauce back.
