Have to get the mozzarella removed. As it's crap mozzarella and is horrible and doesn't soften up.
I went to the GBK in York when I was on holiday. Was a suberb burger! Just went for a normal bacon cheeseburger. If I ever went back I would probably get something a bit more adventurous.
Was a wee bit on the expensive side, but was lovely! The fresh gherkins on top were so juicy and delicious! I could nom those all day long!

McDonalds Its improved its a food a lot over the years and its image and is the cleanest of the lot
Burger King Good burgers but expensive and slow
KFC Loads of choice and great if you want the urge for fried chicken but every one I go in its dirty, they never seem to have someone cleaning up unlike Mcdonalds
Pizza Hut Only been once and pizzas tasted better than Dominoes
Pizza Express Never Been
Dominos Expensive unless you have an offer and pizza always seem greasy
Papa Johns Never Been
Perfect Pizza Never Been
Nando's Never Been
Gourmet Burger Kitchen Never Been
Subway Great for a quick sandwich but gone off them and go to a local independant sandwich shop

If you think Burger King is expensive then I don't think you should step foot inside the ones that you've never been lol It'll give you a shock
Nando's
You've not been to a lot of places!
Well to be fair Wigan is hardly the place to be if you want fine dining....its a bit grim up there...
As for me??...i do like Nandos but only now and again...maccyd's, BK and kfc i tend to stay away from, again once in a blue moon sort of thing. Subways i do like although ive sort of gone off it now as too much isnt a good thing.
Other places mentioned above i do go but again its now and again ie not all the time..GBK i have to say is pretty overrated, id rather have a burger from BK or maccyd's in all honesty...for the price they charge, its not good value

Dominos, the pizzas are good quality and the Sizzler is excellent. Sides let them down a bit, but none of the others are any better in that regard.
Especially since they removed the garlic mozerella sticks from the menu!
Yeah there sides suck.
No mozzerla sticks and no nachos.
. Why did they pull 'emByron Burgers are so much better than GBK.
Think they're only in London at the minute though.
Cool, my first self initiated poll. Thanks Mods.
McDonalds - last resort. Filet'o'Fish only. Consistently and reliably crap and unfulfilling
Burger King - as above but more expensive and onion rings are greasy, fries are nicer than McD.
KFC - replace with Chicken Cottage due to Halal restriction. Inconsistent, can vary from terrible to tasty depending on branch
Pizza Hut - overpriced and use independent Halal clone
Pizza Express - pretentious, overpriced, meagre portions
Dominos - better quality than Pizza Hut, shame they don't do restaurants
Papa Johns - never tried due to Halal restriction
Perfect Pizza - No unique identity to attract me
Nando's - Nice but expensive and usually go to Pepe's Piri-Piri or other independent Halal clone. Consistent good quality wherever I've been.
Gourmet Burger Kitchen - never been due to Halal restriction
Subway - glorified baguettes, meh.
Other(specify) - Wagamamas
If I'm in Dubai then McDs, Burger King and KFC are top choices. Usually quarterpounder with cheese and Big Mac or equivalent Whopper, Zinger.

McDonalds - once in 6 months I'm incline to get something here, then progress to regret it soon it's eaten.
Burger King - similar time frame but rather enjoy it.
KFC - used to go couple times a month, really like it but since losing weight I've only been once the last 2 years.
Pizza Hut - it's ok, it's pizza hut.
Pizza Express - I like it, food is nice, fresh, not too expensive (lots of vouchers about), go once a month.
Dominos - it's like pizza hut...it's fine,
Papa Johns - never even seen one
Perfect Pizza - taste like dominoes so it's fine.
Nando's - love love love lol
Gourmet Burger Kitchen - good burger, Nandos own them now. I prefer Handmade Burger & Co.
Subway - a good and easy way to get a meal with fillings you want. Don't like the bread though
Other(specify)
Wagamama's - as good if not better than Nandos. Amazing fresh food.
Carluccio's - for a chain Italian restaurant, brilliant food, love it (is this a franchise though?)
Yo! sushi - heart sushi but it's not the best sushi but at least it's consistent

Dont eat a lot of fast food and not into these new fancy upmarket places, if I want a sit down meal I will go to a proper restaurant, cheaper, fresher food and better atmosphere
Tried a few Nando sauces from Asda, dont see what the rave is about the sauce, very bland.

meh, apart from the popular ones you are looking into going Manchester/Liverpool, I hate cities, to busy and full of ignorant ****s
calling Wigan grim when you live in London oh lawd, its a dump

I'll answer properly as well.
McDonalds - Going a lot more regularly. I'm a delivery man atm so lots of time killing needs to be done. Usually just get a double cheese burger though. It's alright, fills a hole. Only time I'd get a meal would be when I'm hungover.
Burger King - Haven't been to one in years. They were very expensive for what they were last time and there aren't many left in my area.
KFC - Again, expensive and it's pretty meh. Never really go.
Pizza Hut - Pizzas are good but again expensive. Buffet is great though but rarely go. Probably been about 18 months since my last visit.
Pizza Express - I'm a fan. It's a restaurant as oppose to fast food. Pizzas are great, sides are delicious. Always a nice setting as well.
Dominos - Greasy, and expensive. Rare for me to ever consider getting one.
Papa Johns - Never seen one.
Perfect Pizza - Never heard of it.
Nando's - Overrated rubbish. Been once. It's uninspired chicken covered in an equally uninspired sauce which costs a fortune. Would be happy to never go into one again. Pointless.
Gourmet Burger Kitchen - Never seen one.
Subway - Haven't had in a long long time. Prefer to get a sandwich from a supermarket. Though they are quite tasty.
Other(specify)
Wagamama's - It's good. Expensive, and they charge through the roof for any changes you want. I wanted my dish to be extra hot. I got one red chilli, julienned on a side dish and was charged £1.20 for the privilege. Nice though.
Gregg's - Honourable mention. Another of my stop of points at work, cakes are great.
