    Same stupid sheep’s go buy coffee at Starbucks for no reason other then some dumb USA hype

      Had Starbucks in the US. Threw it out immediately. It was the worst barista made coffee I can remember.

  • I lived in North Carolina for 7 yrs. I had wendys. If you drool over a mcdonalds hamburger you'll like wendy's. If you want something nicer? they might not be the franchise for you.

    Panda Express please.

  • I'm confused. Didn't we already have a wendys here in the past?
    I'm sure I remember going to some pink place called Wendys as a fat kid and getting a hotdog and a milk shake…

    • Different companies. Read the second link, please. 😀

  • Metalcore Wendy's or nothing

  • Just what we need, more yank garbage

    • Yes, why don't we have 30.5cm subs?

  • Cinamon pretzels?! Yummy

    I quite enjoy Wendy's when I was in the States. The burgers are lot firmer than Maccas

  • Admittedly Burgers patties are like watches. The best watches are round .I had a square watch in the 80s at school. I was beaten up. :(

  • Kiwi's are like: "hmm should we tell them.."? Basically grew up with Wendy's burgers in NZ, late nineties, early 00's. Also had Wendy's shakes + hot dogs, which is another company. Quality of all takeaways was better. Wendy's quality still stood out. Had things like Baked Idaho potatoes, chili and the frosty shakes. Special that I liked was a bacon burger combo that was $5 in 2002. Went back on holidays in 2011 and similar burger was just average. Should be good on opening here as trainers from US would be around.

    • Nzlanders could tell the difference between Wendy’s shakes and hot dogs and Wendy’s burgers?

      As I understand it in Oz…. Food products should not overlap.

      So Wendy’s burgers couldn’t do shakes or hot dogs…..

      The problem might be with drinks… maybe one Pepsi and one Coke…..

      • Yes, separate stores and very different colours and products. They can sell the same food, the question is the name. Either Wendy's gets called Wendy Burgers or they buy the name.

  • Look here, look listen

  • meanwhile im still waiting for MOS burger to expand outside of QLD's 3 stores.

    They promised expansion nationally back in 2018, then got fined for underpaying workers, then covid.

    They are still going but pretty well stagnant in Aus

    • meanwhile im still waiting for MOS burger to expand outside of QLD's 3 stores.

      If you find my comment I was expecting something similar being outside QLD.
      But apparently those 3 QLD stores is now just 1. And they removed everything from Japan on the menu and only serve plain burgers, so according to another user they are now similar to Maccas and Hungry Jacks.

      Looks like they are on their way out of Australia 😥.

      • I went to the one in Gold Coast last week and the only rice burger they served was the yakiniku rice burger.

        • Ok didn't know that. That is definitely a japanese menu item. Other user didn't mention it but maybe they missed it on the menu.

          I would really like them to expand though. Not sure why they don't maybe they did a survey in other states and decided it's not worth it.

  • Maybe they are just looking for a way to unload toxins from the US via food to the Antipodean plebs.
    Or money launder (tax dodge)?
    They should take their business to Russia first. I'm sure Comrade Trump needs a non food based snack when he visits his cousin Vlad on his jelly wrestling holidays.

  • I honestly hope it doesn't work out here, I am fine with a few chains here and there, but not everywhere like maccas, kfc, hungry jacks…..

    It's gonna be, IMO, a Krispy Kreme, Starbucks scenario…. open everywhere then close majority where it's not making enough profit

    • When did Krispy Kreme start going out of business or closing anything?

      Haven't they signed some of the most lucrative distribution deals in that sector via hooking up with petrol station outlets and supermarkets all across the country?

      • Do they have any dedicated sites like they had @ 20 years ago?
        I guess wholesaling is more profitable than paying for numerous sites, staff, distribution etc.
        ;)

  • We need an Earl of Sandwich

  • More junk food

    Doesn't look a day over 104

  • Just heard a rumour that one of the first sites will be Broadmeadow NSW (near Hungry Jacks and KFC)

  • I wonder if the first store will open in a decent location.. any time an american franchise opens up here its either penrith or the central coast. Would love to see Carls open some more stores within Sydney itself.

    • Or one near my be work.
      Central Coast is be an affluent market, and there is room for expansion in the b west.
