I've been gone from Springfield for ages and I knew this was at Missouri Neon Sign on Kearney when I saw it. That stretch of Kearney between West Bypass and Kansas is a foundational memory for me. Christ, that set off nostalgia I didn't know I had.

Oh, right, you're getting Whataburger now, that's cool too

We got Dunkin back. Now we're getting Whataburger back. All we need now is Baskin Robbin's and A&W again.

The Baskin-Robbins is going in on Glenstone where Cartoons was yeah?

Oh, I didn't know there was one coming in, that's cool. I just mentioned it because the ones we had here closed back in the 90s.

No, that is the Dunkin'

There's also one going in at Kearney and Glenstone

And one in Republic - pretty sure that’s the one on track to be finished first, they’ve almost completed building it.

So glad my family lives close. Can’t wait to travel to Springfield and wait in line for an hour. No /s. Haven’t had this chain in a decade!

They are wonderful.

I got some of their spicy ketchup at Walmart. They had a whole selection of Whataburger condiments.

Just what Springfield needed… more fast food.

Looks like I picked a good time to move back to Springfield.

Meh. The burgers are average. Wasn't really impressed.

EcoAffinity t1_iqokkse wrote

Yeah, greasy and nothing too special was my thoughts the few times I've had it. I'd take Culver's or Braum's of the local fast food available.

Braums is criminally underrated

i love the Jalapeno pepper jack burger, i get that pretty much any time we go there! the limeade is usually pretty great too!

JKulp42757 t1_iqwhbt6 wrote

Especially so when you consider the prices...overall cheaper combo meals than McDonalds, Wendys, BK, etc... (and you can get small shake for same price instead of a drink)

Digital-Latte t1_isr6xu9 wrote

Braums burgers are great but their fries are terrible.

1

CraziestPenguin t1_isr9b09 wrote

The new Braums sauce helps a lot, but they leave a lot to be desired. With that said though it’s still better than In n Out fries.

stone500 t1_iqqopl2 wrote

Yeah I don't get the hype, honestly. Tasted like Sonic to me

Yeah. I’m not a fan myself. Good description.

Only thing more overrated on this planet is In N Out

How can you be so right about Braums, but so wrong about this.

CraziestPenguin t1_iqoow25 wrote

In N Out is so bland. Their fries are borderline inedible. Even animal style can’t save it. I will say though that their pricing is excellent.

2

EcoAffinity t1_iqoqcx9 wrote

See, nothing tops In N Out for me. Fresh burgers with crisp, fresh toppings. Exactly what I want a burger to be. And I love the fries for their simplicity. But I know the fries are the weakest spot for majority others.

Ganrokh t1_iqordwp wrote

Having finally gotten to try In N Out a few years ago in California, I also noted that their combo prices were almost half of the price as the competition. Very good burger for the price. No idea if they're still comparable now.

FasterDoudle t1_iqp6nuk wrote

Nah, they're absolutely right. In-N-Out is possibly the most overrated burger on the planet. It's not actively bad, but it is aggressively mid. It got so popular because it's cheap and California's expensive, not because their food is anything worth writing home about.

I've had several encounters at In N Out and didn't see what the hype was about. I'm a checkers man myself. Or white castle.

Oh thank god someone else thinks these two chains are overrated

Why so excited about this when we have a Braums on every other corner in the city and it is far superior?
