In the 5 minutes that it took me get it back to work it was a soggy mess. I assume they microwave it because they don’t grill it.
Thank god I have a Jersey Mikes close. They do a good grilled cheesesteak.
Other than that, I’ve got nothing. The closest Bruchi’s is miles away.
I envy those with more options.
Curly fries?
I grew up with Arby’s. As a kid, it was one of those once in awhile things, like going to McDonalds for a Happy Meal. I have a special nostalgic place in my heart for the basic Arby’s roast beef sandwich.
That said, I can’t imagine why anyone would go there for anything else.
The Greek gyro is my go-to, though I’m sure in bigger locales there are better options.
Arby’s Fresh Market sandwiches and curly fries were the shit. Apparently the sandwiches are discontinued but similar is available. That was our go to stop on road trips. I could pound their roast beef sandwiches as a youngster. Cant go wrong with Jersey Mikes though.
Me too. The classic Arby is great. It’s meat and bread with a delicious sauce.
I also like their reuben. But they failed on the cheesesteak.
Do you not have Greek Restaurants?
Do you not have a deli?
I love the potato cakes with Arby’s sauce.
As gyros, go it is bad. As Arby’s goes, it is good.
Cherry turnovers are the only reason I go there intentionally.
Oh, that sounds good. I’m going to try it.
Beneath the blood red sky, as the nuclear ash piles on the scorched ground like snow drifts, as the weak tortured screams echo off bodies piled in our periphery remember here at the end of all things no one cares how many sweet 1/4 lb briskets you chug in 1 sitting

Enjoy Arbys
Laughs in Philly-ese
Pats or Genos? Either would be better than Arby’s
Back in that day, wasn’t their slogan,
America’s Roast Beef Yes Sir.
Neither.
Angelo’s, a 10 minute walk up 9th from those two tourist traps.
Although you may be correct about either being better than Arby’s.
No, we do not.
Yes, and our deli reuben is so much better. The last time I tried the Arby’s reuben was the last time I’ll have the Arby’s reuben.
When I lived on South Street, I was a Jim’s guy
Or Ishkabibble’s
Lorenzo’s for a slice
Arby’s is like a mercantile store for fast food. Need roast beef? Got it. How about chicken? Yup. Fish, probably, if not soon. How’s about kebob? Also probably, let me check in the back. Tiki masala, coming next week!
Would you like a side of cheese curds or spring rolls with that?
I don’t know why but I never liked Arby’s. It was around when I was a kid, and as already mentioned back in those days eating at Arby’s or McD’s was a rare treat.
Last time I had Arby’s was May 2000. I only remember the month and year because we were on our way to watch a NASCAR race, The Winston, and it was the year the pedestrian bridge at Charlotte Motor Speedway collapsed right in front of us.
