Whoever was working this location at 10pm on July 23rd is amazing. She had great energy and was super patient. Definitely one of the nicest people I’ve encountered working in fast food especially at this time of night

Honestly, I've been going to A&W for a couple of years, at least twice a week. Sometimes, my son refuses to eat anything else due to sensory issues related to his autism, and the chicken strips there are the only thing he will eat. However, in the last few months, the food quality has been disgusting. They serve stale food that seems like it's been sitting there; the chicken strips are rubbery. When I ask for fresh ones, they insist it's fresh, but I can tell they're not—the texture is off, and they feel rubbery. The quality is so bad, and the employee working there has a terrible attitude. He argues and claims the food is fresh when it clearly isn't. I've visited other A&W locations, and their chicken strips aren't stale and rubbery like this. They know the food is for kids, yet they still serve stale items, which is unacceptable. Today, I specifically requested fresh food, but it was still stale. At this point, I've decided not to go back and instead write a review. I'm not the only one; I know others who have complained about the burgers being bad too because they're not fresh. They really need to train their staff better or hire new people. Now I have to throw away the food because my kid can't eat stale food due to his sensory issues. He shouldn't have to deal with that. I paid for fresh food, and this is disappointing. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Brand new, clean and shiny, friendly staff, real plates, cups and cutlery and a $12 breakfast featuring: 2 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage, 2 slices of tomato a gf hash brown and a cup of tea or coffee. Someone who can eat regular toast could have that too! Good value compared to anywhere else.

One of the plumpest Teen burgers Ive ever had. I bought meals for 4 people at approximately $15 each plus tax - $68 total. Nothing is cheap anymore but a lot less than a regular restaurant. This was A&W in Mt. Pearl, NL.

Always made fresh and friendly staff. I recommend A&W if you are looking for a good quality fast food breakfast or lunch. The one in Mount Pearl may be slow at times but not always a bad thing as your order will be hot. I enjoy their coffee. Always hot! Vegetarian options: Beyond Meat burger Parking: Lots of parking Kid-friendliness: They have kids meals.

Fruit Flies . We dined in and there was so many Fruit Flies around. This is the 2nd time we noticed them in the last couple of months. I ask the young girl about it and she said that they are having problems with them and cant get rid of them. No big deal. I think its time to have a cleaning company go in a do a major clean.

Informed that when making the sandwiches the employees dont wear gloves, they was their hands every single time and not very clean. I used to love to eat there but I found this out when I suppose to be working there but never got a chance a continue due to the fact they told me I would get 50 cents above minimum wage but they information me that was 25 cents cause part time. That means my 5 years experience working in different fast restaurant mean nothing to them. There I urge any visiting any fast food restaurants do they wear gloves when making your mean or not. If they do good if not then leave and spend your money else where.

Been here a few times. Whenever I order from this location the fries are always perfectly fresh and the burgers are made by the order so no food is sitting around getting cold. The dine in experience is always nice at this location since it still seems like the old classic diner it used to be. When you dine in you get a large chilled root beer mug which is super cool that its still a thing they do. Definitely would recommend and I know Ill be back to this location

December 22, 2021

Servers were polite but the quality of food that I was given today at 7:20 pm is absolutely disgusting for the money that was paid for it. A bag of onion rings not seasoned in the slightest, barely fried long enough to be edible. When it was removed from the bag minutes after being order the only item in the bag that I wanted I would not serve to a dog. Im so sick of giving money to a business that cannot hire staff with any amount of integrity to not put out terrible food.

Very disappointed with the service at this restaurant. I ordered a meal on Skip the Dishes and my order came incomplete. When I called the store they refused to send the missing items, and instead gave me a partial refund in Skip credit and suggested I order from another A&W location. However the refund credit I received only covered the food and did not take into account the delivery fee, so I ended up having to pay even more money to deliver food I already paid for from a different location. I will never be giving A&W my money ever again.

This A & W store is usually has a reputation for good food and good service. During this trip I used the drive through, and after paying for my meal there was a longer than normal wait.
