    Culver’s is definitely my top contender.

    Taco John’s is a good one. I loved their chicken avacado bacon taco. $2 and half a dozen later never had a regret. Until it went away.

    A&W is hit or miss as long as they still have their root beer tapped in store.

    Kwik Trip is popular too because it’s literally grab and go or call ahead and it’s made for you. You can customize it without extra cost is a big win. Burgers. Pizza. Grab some donuts and breakfast sausage and the ultimate diabtus sandwhich is made for breakfast.

    I’m partial to Culver’s and Wendy’s. Portillo’s seems to be rising in popularity across the country these days, too.

      I’m a +1 on Culvers. Seems to be the most popular with my crowd.

      Portillos is good, but honestly it’s always insanely busy which usually swings me towards an alternative.

    Chain fast food: Portillos hands down. Non chain: your closest hot dog or beef joint

    I moved away from the Midwest a few years ago and miss the food dearly

    All these posts about Kwik Trip was making me question what I’m missing by not eating gas station food.

    But to be fair, I do love a Casey’s pizza. Best gas station pizza I’ve had.

      You’re not missing anything. I honestly don’t think their food is very good, but I eat it all the damn time for the convenience of grabbing while on the run when I’m working. When I worked up in the UP I thought the Holiday stores were way better than Kwik Trips.
