One of the worst A&W's I've been to for food and staff. The staff seemed annoyed to be talking to customers and just wanted to talk to each other and ignore customers. The burger was dryer than cardboard, like it's been sitting under a heat lamp all day. It was terrible and the worst than A&W burger I've ever had. Will not be going back and advise others to avoid this location.

Had to wait for our order for about 10 minutes, but the food was fresh.

This place is full of flies, the glass cups smell awful, I really don't recommend anyone coming, it's disgusting.

Stopped on our way from Winnipeg to Regina to catch a bite to eat. First, the plate was a mess. Food lying on other food and just not appetizing looking. I ordered over hard eggs and got over easy. The gentleman apologized nicely but I will not use this A&W again. I returned the food and got my money back. Now I will only get to eat in Regina 😞😞😞

Manager is very rude. I told employee don’t put beyond tiki because my son has allergy of tiki. And manger told me we only make burger as menu . Then I told him give tiki on the side .

Pleasant staff and very good coffee ☕️ in a nice glass cup! Also, many electrical outlets for charging your laptop 💻 🙂

Went to A&W today for a change the place was empty and still didn't get our order right! The quality of service and quality of the food was terrible!! Used to be great burgers! To bad that used to be one of my favorite fast food places! Now probably will never go back

Good food but we pulled up to only one car in front of us and somehow managed to still sit in the drive thru for almost 12 minutes. At noon on a Wednesday.

Not sure if Jash is the manager but he should be. I went in for a root beer float. I guess they re a thing of the past. He convinced me to buy a different root beer cream drink. When he wasnt taking orders he was wiping tables and chatting with patrons.

I was ignored by counter person 2 times. I had to tell her I was in line. Then she tried to have another person help me. Never have I ever been treated like a nobody at a AW before. Will never eat here again. Poor service!

Absolutely joke of a restaurant. Apparent sponsor of the hockey tournament. Son won player of the game. Went to redeem the coupon and wouldn t honour what was printed on the coupon because they accidentally misprinted what the voucher was actually for. After the clueless counter attendant in the burka was rude as hell while explaining this to me she retrieved the equally as rude manager Paketdeep who came over and again explained that they misprinted the voucher. If you re going to be a sponsor for a hockey tournament then honour your commitment. Easy to be a sponsor, harder to follow up on your commitment of sponsoring an event. Pretty embarrassing for the AAA challenge tournament in Brandon and for the wheat kings as a whole. I would probably distance myself from this restaurant in the future.

The food is good, but this particular location has staff that wouldn t let you put an order in without being interrupted after each word. It s a super-frustrating experience interacting with them, very single time. Managers, train your staff to listen before asking questions.

December 21, 2023

Terrible service at this location, staff are rude and uncaring, the teen burger was cold and missing bacon, many empty tables had garbage still on them, the one we sat at was sticky and had old dried ketchup on it and the final icing on the cake was the state of the womans bathroom, absolutely fifthly, worse than any gas station bathroom I have been in.

December 21, 2023

Rude staff, dirty inside, garbage on tables, our order was wrong & odd tasting. Definitely gone downhill.

A&W No longer has chicken burger coupons as part of the mailer coupons, which is a bit of a downer. Fries are not as good as other places like McDonalds or Wendys. The strips / chubby chicken is delicious, and the new root beer frozen drinks are fun. Give one a try.
