u tried A&W recently? go try their service and food. You will be surprise how come they still can survive until now.

I recommend u to try the seremban outlet and also the pj outlet (the oldest A&W in malaysia) yes it haven't tear down yet.

during the late 80s, where fast food where you had other choices like Grandy's and White Castle, which is better and cheaper. Price very competitive.
last time a Connie Dog set cost as much as a KFC snack plate.

2 weeks ago, had a root beer float, and their signature was their mug are stored in the freezer so it will be cold for longer time. They no longer do it.

A&W memang bodo.

Sometimes I eat at Petronas Shah Alam one, the menu is reallllllllyyyy small. The food portion is not enough, feel like need topup Mozza burger or another serving lol

I mean, if you're going to eat in one-sitting, then forget it. Better get KFC's snack plate for the same price but a lot more food. Or Mekdi (but Mekdi is the same as A&W, not enough food).

my fave at A&W:

Eat & drink those during hot afternoon. Feels heavenly!

The problem is not their recipe ... A&W used to serve good waffle, fried chicken, curly fries, hot dog and root beer. But the quality is not there anymore..

The problem is the person that is managing the franchise. Bad management ... They pay some of their creditors with the company's shity shares which worth nothing ... Their financial record was a mess.. About 10 years ago when I wan engaged in some of their financial related work.. Not sure their financial situation now ...

Wasted ....

Well, they are still standing. Burger King came & went, came again & looks like going again. White Castle no more, Grandy's no more, MOS no more, Carl's too expensive.

PJ padang outlet still operating & serves root beer with mug. I only ever go there for the root beer, conie & waffle.

A&w fish is quite ok but too thin slice. Their fried chicken was not bad actually but too bad, msian mindset felt its not worth paying, rather go KFC. The coney dog fools everybody with the mexican sauce but the dog is just a cheap dog fr supermarket. 1801 hotdog is better , im not sayinf its good but slightly better.

during the late 80s, where fast food where you had other choices like Grandy's and White Castle, which is better and cheaper. Price very competitive.
last time a Connie Dog set cost as much as a KFC snack plate.

2 weeks ago, had a root beer float, and their signature was their mug are stored in the freezer so it will be cold for longer time. They no longer do it.

A&W memang bodo.

really?? i think last 2-3 week i go a&w and they still store their mug at freezer....at pj near amcorp mall branch....btw sometimes if mug not enough they use paper cup...

Personally I like the taste or A&W but it's clear to me the franchise in Malaysia is run by shitty songlappers who don't give two hoots about what we think.
The portions are so small and even the ketchup and chili sauces are adulterated. What a bunch of cheapskates. The A&W in other countries have larger portions.

I support and mmg suka their food

But services teruk macam taik, whole restaurant one table + me second table, takemore than 5 mins to prepare, which is not the first time , but i die hard fans so okay.

menu has to change, and pls allow more discount/promotions like mcdee.
rootbeer haram sarsapilla not as gas-sy as before, although theres a god damn big signboard stated "foam how amny inches thick" m you request to change they buat bodo.

Instead of chilled glass/mug, somtimes they give paper cup je.

Have to rebrand thoroughly from head to toe, thoght after KUB bought over they will have drastic changes.

I think its worth noting that for those of you commenting about service, it really would help fast food restaurants if we bussed our own trays and didn't make so much of a mess on the tables we eat on.

Malaysia is quite possibly one of the only countries where fast food staff have to clean up the tables afterwards. You guys ever noticed that?

You can tell if a Malaysian has spent significant amount of time overseas by whether or not they clean up their own table afterwards at McD, KFC, etc.

That said, A&W isn't quite what it used to be which is why nobody eats there anymore. Used to be a time when they had the best waffles and ice-cream in PJ, but that's back when we had no choice.

With the recent cafe boom, PJ folks have no shortage of options when it comes to waffles and we found out that we've been ripped off all along as A&W actually makes crappy shit but we just didn't know better back than due to lack of options.

Is it because there's one time they were selling "a&w mug" for some combo purchase, which is no different from the mug they provided for dine-in customer.

When you able to present the mug, you can enjoy the free rootbeer refill, so everyone starts stealing it ?

IKEA Malaysia... only IKEA in the world which hire bangla to clear tables.

That said, its not their table clearing which is slow its their service. I only go to A&W PJ and its always the same story, slow staff in general and only 1 guy manning waffle station and 2-3 working griddles to serve the entire restaurant. I've waited 1 hour for waffles before. Their waffles are ok but price just keeps creeping up and they even have to scrimp on syrup and butter, not like the old days...

The only thing I love about A&W is it's Root Beer Float and Curly Fries/Onion Rings.
If McD offer these 2 permanently it'll be a WIN.
