- Whoot! It was a Trifecta! -…read more Normally I don't do two review updates in quick succession, but three great things happened at once! 1. I grabbed a new and improved Whopper using their long-running Whopper Wednesday promotion. 2. Crowns have returned for a limited time after a 15-year absence! These little crispy chicken nuggets were one of the most requested items for BK to bring back and I went with an 8 ct. 3. It was my b-day month so double rewards on my order. What's not to like! App- I've had the App for years and ordering was simple a usual. The order came to $8, which was great. Drive-Thru- it was quick and the employee was friendly and even wished me a happy b-day! Packaging- The new Whopper box was appreciated. Everything was there including the correct dipping sauces. Nothing was squished. I came home and gave the Crowns a quick trip in the air fryer, so they were piping hot and still crispy. Food- A solid, above average, fast-food lunch! The veges were fresh along with the bun. The Whopper was built properly and the flavors blended nicely. The Crowns were nostalgia in every bite. With inflation rampant, it's tough out there and BK is stepping up to the plate nicely. 4 Stars!

- A Guilty Pleasure! -…read more It's been over 5 years since I last reviewed them and over 10 since I started visiting this location. Over the years I've visited many other locations and for good or bad I'm a Checkers expert! Arriving- Immediately off US Route 27 South and drive-thru and walk-up only! No inside seating. At this Checkers there is one drive-thru for App users and one for everybody else. In the App user's lane, you receive your order through the passenger window which I find slightly annoying. However, the other benefits of the app make up for it. Ambience- The only thing to discuss is the outside seating. A few sizable tables with big umbrellas to keep off the hot Florida sun. The App- The app is solid and well-designed but most importantly, it has great deals. I almost always get some kind of discount. Customer Service- Unless you live under a rock, you know they are drive-thru and walk-up only. I've found the service to be fast, especially in the App-user lane. I've never had a mistake with my order, so the folks are competent. The employees are not usually super friendly, but they are polite and efficient and I'm good with that! Food- Burgers, Chicken and their famous Seasoned Fries in a myriad of combinations. They also do occasional specials like a Cheesesteak which was not bad! On this visit I had their Big Buford which is their take on a Dbl Qtr with Cheese. I added a Seasoned Fries and no drink as I was bringing it home. It would normally go for about $10 but I paid $7 with some App discounts. See my picture. This is not gourmet food, but it was tasty, well-prepared and well-seasoned. It was a great value and I was satiated! Conclusion- So you get better than decent food quickly, at a great price and never need to get out of your car. It's an easy four stars for me!

This is an update focusing on my fine lunch so read my original review for more detail on this excellent chain. Customer service- I blew in intent on lunch to-go and moseyed up to the counter with no wait. The always smiling young lady efficiently processed my order and it was ready in about 5 minutes. Food- My go-to order here is usually three tenders with fries and slaw for $14 and change. A biscuit or role comes along for the ride. I brought this bad boy home and plated it up. That was supposed to be three tenders, but I think they went a little overboard! Now you see why I ordered the slaw. See my picture. As my cholesterol spiked in anticipation, a loosened my belt in preparation and attacked. Taste- OMG! Tender, juicy, white meat tenders with perfectly crunchy batter. Very good fries but they are consistently undercooked for about a minute. Fresh, crunchy slaw. It was several hours until I could write this update because I was comatose in my recliner! An easy 4 stars and probably 4.5. The minimal parking can get a little crazy and the fries need a little more time but that doesn't stop their legions of fans from stopping by including me. I think I'll survive until Christmas!

We have ordered takeout many times and it has always been cooked to perfection . Fries could be a Little crispier sometimes and the baked beans are very tasty. Price is really nice. If you like good Maryland Fried Chicken, this is the place to go in Avon Park and near by. Worth the short drive from Sebring..

- We've got the Steak Nuggets! -…read more I only review fast food joints when there is marketing craziness going on and that's the case here. I've been inundated with emails, texts and commercials about these nuggets. My middle name is Carnivore so off I went. The App- I've had the app for years with a linked charge card and never had a problem. My fingers flew across the screen for a drive-thru order, and I jumped in the car with a thread of drool dripping off my chin! Customer Service- This location has always been good for me. There was one car ahead of me in line. My order was ready before the appointed time. The guy was friendly with a genuine smile, and I was gone. Food- Of course I wanted the nuggets, but I still had a few choices. I decided to go with the sandwich. It comes with Pickles, Onion Strings and Havarti Cheese and that was fine. I nixed Mayo as I have Horsey Sauce at home. I added Medium Crinkle Fries, and it set me back $12.35. I brought that bad boy home, zapped the fries for a minute in the air fryer and plated it up. Check out my picture. Taste- I was worried that they would be overdone and dry and I was delighted to be wrong! They were medium, moist. pink, tender, and flavorful. There were plenty of them, so it was a hefty sandwich. The pickles added a nice crunch, and the Havarti Cheese was great. The fries were great as usual. Conclusion- The sandwich itself is over $8 but if you are a carnivore like me, it was a damn fine lunch! Compared to other main-stream fast food joints, I'll give it 5 stars!

- Where's the beef! -…read more That iconic commercial debuted over 40 years ago, changed the face of the fast-food market and made them a household name. Over many decades, I'm still a loyal customer! Arriving- They are in the middle of a typical pack of fast-food chains on US Route 27 North. Parking is easy. Ambience- It's clean and typical and very quiet as most folks use the drive-thru Drive Thru- They are experimenting with AI and it's getting better by the month! They have an employee always standing by to jump in and help if needed, which is much appreciated. The App- Typical and mostly decent. Getting an offer or a reward credited is tricky and needs to be improved. They are generous with their rewards! Customer Service- I generally drive thru and about 90% of the time a make it through without being told to pull over. That other 10% I usually wait 2 or 3 minutes. I've never received a incorrect order. The employees are friendly and pleasant so no problems there. Food- Today was a Double Cheeseburger and Spicy Nuggets and it set me back about $11. It was completely as expected Hot, juicy beef with the toppings I specified. The Nuggets were hot in temperature and spicy hot and crispy. A satisfying lunch! Conclusion- I've been going to this specific Wendy's for over ten years and watched them evolve especially with their breakfasts and chicken sandwiches. Of the big 3, they are a solid choice.

By the time our friendly waitress came to take our order, I was ready to follow Steven's advice and try one of their pizzas. It did not take long before a small pie arrived, generously topped with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, and onions. The flavors were spot on, and with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a little kick, it was perfect. I enjoyed it so much that while we spent the next 20 minutes chatting about travel, Yelp, and my sprinter van, I looked down to find I had polished off the entire pizza without even realizing it. Service was warm and attentive throughout. Our waitress made sure we were well cared for and handled splitting the check with ease. Market 27 also offers a wide variety of drinks, from sodas to beers. I went with a macro brew this time, but next visit I will branch out and try something different. Overall, Market 27 delivered a welcoming atmosphere, delicious food, and great service. It's an excellent choice for a casual meet‑up or a satisfying meal.

John, the owner of this fine establishment, crafts & bakes a Stromboli that will make your…read moretastebuds sing with joy! If you like Boli, especially savory Meatlovers versions, this is the place for you! This is a one-topic review focusing solely on their Stromboli. For other aspects of the restaurant, please read my previous reviews. Pricing- There are almost 20 specialty pizzas on the menu here and of course you could build your own. So why am I talking about pies in a Boli review? Because Boli pricing is the same as the medium pizza price. So, I wanted a Meatlovers Boli, I found the Meatlovers pizza, and the medium was $15.49. Boom, that's the price of my Boli. Note- I'm addicted to black olives, so I always add them and that cost me about an extra buck or so. I ordered this bad boy to-go. Appearance- Check my pictures. This is what a well-made Boli should look like. Perfectly cooked crust and heavy with savory fillings. So many Stromboli's, when you cut into them are skimpy with the fillings, but not this bad boy! Just look at those fillings! Taste- Phenomenal! Just the perfect mix of meats, cheese, crust and of course the added zing of my black olives. Conclusion- Amazing taste, awesome value, and wonderful employees = 5 stars!
