Here in Connecticut, USA we have several fast food chains that are in every town. They are: McDonald's Wendy's Burger King Arby's But I know that in other states here in the USA and around the world it varies. I've heard of fast food restaurants like White Castle or Chic a Fil and Sonic but have never eaten there because we don't have any where I live. What are the most popular fast food restaurants where you live?

I would kill for a Sonic in my area. I'm so mad that the closest one to me is miles away. All we have are McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, and White Castle. I might be missing one but who cares. There are no Sonics in my area!. I think I have to wait a few years. White Castle didn't show up until a few years ago and everyone went crazy. The drive thru was packed for days.

Wish we had a Sonic here too. We have the commercials on television, although I don't know why since there isn't one around. I'm sure they'll popping up around here soon enough. Thanks for the post!

I live in Virginia. Here we have: McDonald's(really, who doesn't?) Wendys Burger King Bullets(hamburgers and wings) Chick-Fil-A(chicken, shockingly) Captain D's(seafood) Long John Silver's(seafood) Kentucky Fried Chicken(KFC) Church's Chicken Popeye's Chicken Lee's Chicken(i think this is just a local store, not a chain) Arby's (God's gift to fast food) Taco Bell(how they make grade D beef edible is beyond me, but whatever, I still eat there) Sonic also in northern Virginia they have Boston Market, which i wish we would get in Richmond. I'm not aware of any White Castles or Krystal's here, but that would be beyond cool!

Wow, you've got tons of stuff near you. I have to agree about Taco Bell, I've eaten there before, their meat does a little odd, but it does taste good. We do have a Boston Market nearby. Their chickens are delicious!

I thought of another one right after I hit post. Well actually 2. Dairy Queen-they have burgers, never had one though and a local dive, What a Burger. If you are ever in Richmond, and you happen upon this place never, NEVER eat here. How it has remained open as long as it has(like 20 or 25 years) is beyond me. If you manage to not get shot while ordering/waiting for your burger, you have a greater chance of food poisoning to overcome.

McDonald's and Hardees are popular here. We also have a DQ, Taco Bell/KFC, Burger King,and Pizza Hut. I don't know how the Burger King stays in business here because I never see any cars in the parking lot! We also have Mr. Dave's, which is not a chain but is probably more popular than any of the chains here in town. They serve fast food style food, but much of it is home made. They grind their own hamburger and sausage meat daily, and have breaded tenderloins that have won national acclaim! And it doesn't cost much more than the mass-produced chain food.

Mr Dave's sounds like a great place. It's nice to have a fast food type place that is not a chain. The quality of food is probably a lot better than a McDonalds.

Well am from London,UK, we have McDonalds, Kfc, and few others,am not into fast food much, as i find them very expensive and you dont get value for money,but saying that Wendys when it was here was the best to me,it had good tasting food, and prices were reasonable,but the UK is a strange place, as anything that rip people off seem to survive, while others perish.

We have Sonic and Chick fil a here in Virginia. Sonic has delicious shakes and limeades and floats. Chick fila has a really nice kind of non fast food atmosphere. They even put flowers on the tables.

I think you mean Chick-Fil-A, and it's awesome! I absolutely love their waffle fries. I haven't been in quite a while, but that sure does sound good. I've seen White Castle but don't believe I've ever been to one. I recently moved here to Ohio and there's one in town, but I haven't been yet. Aren't they the place that has the little hamburgers, where it takes several to get a meal? Sonic is good too, they make the best chili/cheese dogs! I don't go to these type places often, but once in a while it's a real treat. I still love a Wendy's burger, and the broccoli cheese potato, and side Caesar salad. Arby's it has to be the Beef & Cheddar sandwich with a Jamocha shake. Yum! Ok, now I'm hungry for a fast food lunch and it's only 8:05 a.m - thanks ...
