a lot of folks in my area have never tried a CFA

6 cities in Iowa have a CFA
3 cities in Nebraska
2 cities in South Dakota

The main reason I like CFA is their service.  I'm fine with the sammich and waffle fries, they get a bit pricey.  The service to me is excellent.  That said, I have not dined at one in two plus years.  My wife likes it, if we're driving somewhere it's high on our list for quick food options.
That's the problem. No like.

great service.

Is it really that much better than most fast food places?

great service vs waiting in line 5 times longer than another place for a chicken sammich?

IMHO, CFA has much much better service than any other fast chain operation I've ever tried.  We sit eating there and I look around and marvel at it and wonder why others can't emulate it.  My guess is they pay well, but I don't know that, and their managers are well vetted.

It's a pleasure to watch, for me.  

We have one 3 blocks away from us, but we prefer dining at local places over chains.

I don't know where the nearest one is. The only chains in PG are by the interstate, CFL is not one of them.

I stopped at a Runza a week or so ago in Lincoln on my way to the golf course

went inside to order and eat

staff was friendly, took my order immediately, delivered my order in a few minutes, food was fresh and hot.  place was clean and the right temp. A/C was working.

not sure what else I'd want in that visit to make it much better

I am unfamiliar with Runza.  My own experience is that CFA has far better service than any of the other national chains.  It's not close, in my view.

There was a McD's near us in Cincy that was pretty good, we went there for breakfast on occasion.  That isn't the usual experience at a McDs.  And CFA is better than that McDs.

Would you say this service and experience was better than what you get at your average national fast food chain?

don't know...

it's the first time I've been at a fast food place in years

do most fast food places screw up something or have issues?

I wouldn't drive 20 miles for CFA either, I don't even walk three blocks for it.

My sole point is that in my view their service is far ahead of any other national chain.  

Now I'm hungry.

Yes.


My experiences mirror CD's-- CFA is superior in service, efficiency, cleanliness, friendliness, quality, consistency, and overall experience, compared to all of the other national fast food chains.  This isn't comparing them against local or regional places, just the big national brands.

There is a Culver's next to the motel we stay at in North Port.  We've had lunch there twice.  I hadn't thought of it as a fast food place, but I can see that it is.  It was OK with me.  The choices for a quick lunch in North Port are .... limited.

If there was a CFA there, we'd probably have lunch there.
