Situated right next to the petrol station, it has nearby parking, which is convenient. Inside is definitely cleaner then other Carl's Jnr restaurants, although I do wish they would redesign - the front counter is weirdly hidden from entrance door and so is difficult to see first off. More expensive than other fast food burger joints in the area, but better value for money.

Occasionally I'll sway from this diet and usually when I'm hungover and the body is craving carbs. I have to say that I'm not the biggest fast food fan (and no I don't consider Burger Fuel fast food!!). However each time I've been to Carl's Jr. I'm impressed with their table service, speed and quality of food. I always order a pretty bog standard burger with some onion rings on the side. I love the quality of their ingredients and okay it's a little more expensive than some fast food outlets but this place has a great ambiance and table service to match. Does it get any better when you're feeling a little groggy? I think not. See you soon Carl!

I was starving and had had a long day so when I sped down to Browns Bay to grab some dinner I was…read morein no mood for a tedious wait. I pulled up to this fish and chip shop incredibly eager for my burger and saw that it was absolutely packed. There must have been about 15 people squeezed inside waiting for their order. I considered calling it quits and heading somewhere else but decided to wait it out. Surprisingly, the wait was only about 15 minutes, which I thought was very well done on the shop's behalf! My order of a piece of fish, chips, a Hawaiian burger and four won tons came to only $15! And it all tasted reasonably good apart from the won tons, which were more on the average side of things. Apart from that it was A-OK.

The thing about this Fish and Chip shop is the location.

It's a half block back from the beach front, so you can get your fish and chips and burger and spud fritters and squid rings and enjoy take them down to the beach which is a nice minutes walk away. It seems I'm not the only person that likes to indulge this pleasure, so it's invariably full with a big long line- it's what you get with perfect locations - but hey, perfect excuse for an evening walk while you wait!

Battled for about 5 minutes with the person on the phone to understand our order. Got there and waited an hour. AN HOUR for side dishes? My daughter voiced her frustration about this to the lady and got an extremely rude response in return. We know the waiting time is nobodies but the chefs business, but to get a disgustingly rude response after already having to wait an hour is just not acceptable. Saddened by the service as we enjoy their food, but unsure whether we will support them again due to this. Something clearly went wrong there tonight and a simple kind response would have sufficed. Purely unacceptable for a place that isn't cheap to start with!

First visit here…read more.. Staff genuinely look downtrodden... And I reckon I know why. Chubby Indian dude in the 'I'm the boss' style shirt kicks of proceedings with getting our order wrong, with a look on his face like he soiled himself. This guy has all the service skills of a Thalidomide tennis player. Watched him (what looked like) telling his staff off for no apparent reason... Probably because of his own mistakes. Or maybe that's just how he generally speaks to them. Staff seem to be doing a good job, and the place is clean. Probably because there's bugger all people here due to not wanting to get served by Mr Grumblehead. Asked for a Chicken tequila burger but with a spicy fillet. Him: "We only do one or the other" Me: "Can't you just put a spicy fillet in it mate?" Him: "Uh, yea" Me: "Well that's what I asked for man, pretty simple!" Keep the Staff. Ditch the wanna be Boss and this place would be worth a couple more stars.

I visited Wendys at Whangaparaoa on Monday 13.8.18. Once again I got the foreign sounding woman…read more(who keeps well out of sight) and asked for my usual order:- A five dollar 50 value meal beef please with Sprite for the drink and a seniors black coffee. I recognized the female voice as the one who gives me a chicken burger instead of beef, but wrapped in a beef printed wrapping. She did this again on Monday, but this time wrapped it in a reused scrunched up beef wrapping paper out of the rubbish bin. She always puts the burger on its side in the bag. On an earlier occasion a dark chap with poor English had a problem with giving me the free coffee for pensioners. He didn't use the coffee machine which I can see through the drive through window, but poured me cup of cold slops served in a dirty cup from the rubbish bin with dried stains down it. I have heard the dark skinned so called manager complaining that they don't make any profit out of me, so he clearly resents giving me the free coffee that is Wendy's policy. Complaints are never responded to, so obviously the manager or owner doesn't care or has no management skills. Betty Robb

I can…read morenow have a proper English roast dinner any day of the week and given to me in a matter of seconds. Heaven! Yorkshire Roasts have everything you could want out of a roast place: a great selection of meats, crispy, golden roast potatoes, kumara and some of the nicest gravy I've tasted! The prices range from a small meal for $9, a medium one for $11 and a large for $15, so it's really great if you want a meal at lunchtime but don't want to be overly full, or just depending on the size of your appetite. For me though, the best part is the Yorkshire puddings. I'm obsessed with their battery goodness, and these ones could rival my mums in terms of size and flavour. They also have roast meat sandwiches if you don't want a full meal (but I always do!) and their extras start at around 70c, so it's really good value.

I mean…read morehonestly, the sushi just can't compete with the amazingly good roasts at the Yorksire Roast shop. It's perfect on a wintery night when you're craving a hearty meal but have no intentions of getting in the kitchen. They're dripping with gravy, flavour and crackling. It's enough to cause an early death I know but I love it every now and again. They also have loads of yummy potatoes, pumpkin and peas that are actually swallowable. And of course who could forget the delicious treat they're named after, the beloved Yorkshire pudding. Mmmmmm. They are amazing and soak up all that gravy. Wow, I feel a lot like Homer Simpson talking about this food. But I guess if you went there, you'd understand where I'm coming from.

This is the closest Thai restaurant to my house but it is not the one I come to most. I think the…read morequality of this food here is slightly (and only slightly) less than elsewhere. I still come here often and dine in with my friends or get takeaway. Last week I got a takeaway chicken Pad Thai that confirmed my suspicions about the food here. It was still quite yummy and the portion was large but it didn't have that wow factor or the mouth watering superiority I always crave. I tasted my friend's garlic chicken dish and thought that was pretty good. So maybe it was a bad night for the old Pad Thai.. who knows. I'm not going to black list this place just yet. I will give it another go, after all it is local and it is affordable.
