Fast Food Restaurants near Notre Dame

“Yummy nuggets, spicy deluxe sandwich, fries, relatively short wait times given their amount of orders during rush hours, and the Southwest salad (preferably with nuggets) that not a lot of people get is actually filling & healthy & tasty! A true hidden gem. I won’t really recommend the milkshake tho too creamy and sweet. Also the pickup process could be a bit more organized.“

“I like the food here. It's on the campus of Notre Dame. It's in the middle of campus and parking really isn't close. You're only going to be eating there if you're already on campus. It's fast food, but a bit upscale. The menu has some great options including burgers, salads, bowls. They have good vegetarian options including "chickenless" chicken that you can substitute in dishes. It's has healthier options than most other places. It sometimes closes early though. It's all self-ordering either from a kiosk there or from Grubhub for pick up. The wait can sometimes be 30 minutes or more, so definitely order in advance on Grubhub and just pick up the food or eat it there.“

“Just think the ordering system is very strange, not an actual drive thru anymore no window to pick up they take your order outside, payment and then they bring the food out to you, with winter coming how nuts is that! So much traffic with three lanes. Their fries could be a little darker and not so broken up.“

“Amazing food great service clean place if you like Chicago style This is the place and it feels like your in Chicago when you walk in“

“First time customer. Great burgers and service. Please come to Syracuse ,NY.“

“We went through the drive through tonight and while checking our bag to make sure we got all of our food we noticed we were
missing a burger. I was about to walk inside from the drive through waiting parking spots when Hayden appeared holding the missing burger. After dropping off our food she realized we were missing a burger and ran out to bring it to use before we left. She apologized repeatedly but I feel like she didn’t need to because she solved the problem before I had to. The food was really fresh and delicious,

It’s really nice to see someone who cares so much about her job and customers. Thanks Hayden!“

“Just wanted to share: So seldom does anyone show the brighter side these days. I wanna give a shout out to two young men that made a recent dining experience. If you are looking for a friendly, and delicious experience. Then go to Hardee's when Donovan Carpenter and Jeff Kirksey are working. You are greeted with a friendly, courteous voice that makes sure your order is accurate. And leave with a tasty, well made meal. Thanks you for all you do.“

“Trashy food, orders made wrong after 20 min. wait...“

“I want to give a shout out to Culver’s employee Mika. He was friendly, professional and full of humor. He definitely made our experience ten times better. Keep up the amazing work Mika!“

“Love the food fast service“

“Culver's is my favorite hamburger and my favorite hamburger restaurant in America. The service is excellent and the servers are always polite and well-dressed in their uniforms. The butter burger is awesome. The french fries are good. The root beer is outstanding. And their frozen custard is fantastic. I wish they'd build that one near my house that they've been talking about on North Hamilton Road Columbus Ohio!!!“

“Today I just had my BEST Culver experience ever. We went in thinking average about Culver’s but one of the employees took upon themself to make it our best experience and went above and beyond of what is expected. Not only did CAM make sure our food was ordered fast and fresh, his charisma and positive attitude brought so much more light to our day. He made sure we left as happy or if not more HAPPY than what we entered. He always checked on us, and he made sure we had a good deal when ordering. ON TOP OF THAT, he even went out his way to hold the door for us in our way out. SERVICE 10/10. Cam deserves recognition and a raise for his great contribution to the Culver’s family as well as for his uplifting attitude.“

“Kody Jordan and Kris all were wonderful and had good energy and Kris made my pizza BEAUTIFUL. Glove change because of my gluten allergy! Everyone was very sweet! It was a beautiful pizza and so delicious! Blaze always does me right with my gluten allergy needs!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pizza“

“The greatest customer service I have ever had in a fast food restaurant.!“

“Great Food! Amazing Milkshakes and very friendly staff!“

“A long day on the road in a truck sometimes leaves you stuck trying to find a good place to eat. Luckily I pulled in as they were closing, they saw my truck and opened the doors for me to order my food and offered to let me eat in, the customer service was above par for the modern restaurant, the food is fresh and fast. I'll definitely keep coming back to this location when I'm in the area, TY all for the service!

Kid-friendliness: Normally these chains are very family oriented, it may not seem like it, but I remember coming here often with my family!

Parking: Large open rear lot, well lit at night, TIGHT DRIVE THRU.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps wrap the buildings entrance“

“I wish I got all the guys names but this is the chillest 5 guys I've been to! Staff is friendly as all heck and they cook a mean burger!! Great customer service and great vibes and food! Company has to fix the card readers because we were trying to tip the cashier and it froze out and we didn't have cash! Fix that so your boys can get some money!!“

“The best subs around and the best service around. If you have an issue with the door dash menu, call the store to let them know what you need. They were super accommodating for me and my gluten intolerance. I wish I could give them 10 stars!“

“I just wanted to say what a great job the employees were doing on Friday the 23rd. There was a fairly long line and it moved very quickly and I was very impressed with the service and the food!“

“This is absolutely the best Wendy's I have ever been to across more than 10 states. Every time I order I receive exactly what I ordered and never have to wait! Keep up the great work at this location and you will have me as a customer for life.“

“It is my opinion that the have the best subs. Definitely the best pickles. Always ask for extra pickles but rarely get them. You have to check and ask again. Their salads are so fresh and you can get chopped up pickles on them as well. Their meats are very fresh and most sandwiches come with lettuce, tomatoes, onion, mayo and deli mustard. If you are taking them home for later ask for the mustard and mayo on the side.
They did our family dinner giving us the loves of bread and all the ingredients to assemble them ourselves. It turned out wonderful would definitely do it again.

Vegetarian options: Their salads are the freshest tasting of any fast food place. They have veggie sub too.

Parking: Handicapped and regular parking in front and in the rear of restaurant.“

“**Update: Their corporate office reached out to me and were very professional. They apologized for the service I received and compensated me as well. I will try this establishment again and very much appreciate the professionalism from Arby's** Original Review: 2nd time we have been there and they still messed up our order. I normally don't post reviews but this place definitely deserves it. I asked the lady if she had everything and of course she said yes (should have known better with this place). I get my food and notice that the meal is small when we asked for large, no cheese on my sandwich and to top it off one of our other sandwiches is not even what we ordered! Didn't even bother to ask them to fix it because it probably would get messed up again. I understand we are all human, but when you're slow and continuously mess up an order that's where I draw the line. I definitely will be taking my business elsewhere.“

“Lovely first experience! We always drive by it and today we finally decided to stop. Steak sandwiches were great. Also highly recommend the cheese and carmelized onion empanadas!!! 10/10 :) we will be back“

“Service couldn't be more caring and pleasant. The food is glorious. I have eaten at 2 different South Bend locations and both were amazing. I dream of your food!!!!You could teach Dairy Queen in Niles, Michigan something about service and food prep!!!! Just sayin“

“I love the environment and how clean and friendly the employees are food is alway hot and fresh“

“This is the best experience at an Arby's that I have ever had. The service was with a smile, and the food was the fastest I have ever had. I also made a to go order after eating my meal again, super fast with napkins straw and sauce... Perfect.. We did ring the bell...“

“Went through the drive-thru I was informed there was only one lady at the register and one person cooking food so it would be about 15 minutes before I would get my food I appreciated her letting me know that I did place my order and the food was great thank you for your “

“Niles Culver’s does fun things for the community we went to heroes night lots of things to do for the kids we had a great time“

“This isn't a dis on this taco bell... the employees are fantastic orders are put together wonderfully.... this is fir the new baja Gelato.... noooo.... it's ba... instead of baja... no flavor... and the prepacked so not location fault..“

“I just wanted to say what a great job the employees were doing on Friday the 23rd. There was a fairly long line and it moved very quickly and I was very impressed with the service and the food!“

“Dinning room finally open!After the slowest dinning room remodel in history....Good stuff,,I usually just get the original classic RB sandwich which is always good.Fries - depends if they are fresh & hot which is the best or old & cold which is Not the best.Would I go back here? Yes.“

“ayce fish and chicken during everyday in Nov. 11 to 7.“

“First of all it’s slow! And I was told today I was not allowed to upgrade my french fries lol two onion rings since when does a fast food restaurant not one extra money… You just lost me as a customer forever!! rude. I’ve been going to Dairy Queen’s for months and I just now received this notice lol that’s OK I didn’t need it anyways“

“it was an awesome time there. thank you Robin for being our waitress and talking to me.. I needed it today! I would recommend this place anytime foods great people are nice and it's always so clean.. thank you all for dinner tonight..“

“I love the food and and the drinks and my dog loved the doggy ice cream with the treat inside“

“I'm not one for giving a negative review but they did mess up my order. They weren't busy as I was one of only two cars there through the drive thru. I didn't realize until I got home. I tried calling to let them know but no one answered the phone. ?“

“It's Friday October 19th. At 10:55 p.m. just left the drive-thru. I didn't catch the woman's name but whoever she was was literally the best EVER. She was super nice polite and friendly! It was very close to closing time so I apologized for coming so late. And she was super super sweet about it. I wish all fast food chains had employees like this. So to whomever in upper management reads this,,, please find out who she is and show her recognition for her kindness and good work ethics.“

“I usually don’t give reviews for a McDonald’s but man this McDonald’s was spot on!!! Everything I ordered was fresh, cooked exactly right and i actually enjoyed it! I almost wanted to go back for seconds! McDonald’s doesn’t usually do that great and my expectations are usually low but WOW! Like they did a really good job and it was super fast!!! Whatever you guys are doing there keep it up!“

“This Taco Bell is the absolute best! The restaurant and restrooms are spotless! The crew is super friendly and efficient. Our order is always fast, fresh, and 100% accurate. This is a great place to bring the kids and dine in!! A big thanks to the team!“

“So I worked at this Arby's for a long time. Past tense. But I am a big fan of it. It is clean, the dining room is attractive with all the windows. The food over all is good. I gave it a low score because they do not slice their meat to the right thickness. It is supposed to be thin enough that you can read the paper through it. When it is, they are super fluffy and might make up for the small portions (that are dictated by corporate). I also think the frying could be better. Summing up, if you are willing to spend the extra money for Arby's, this is a good one. My complaints are purely nitpicking and apply to every Arby's I have been to for years. The fries are good, they have Mellow Yellow.

Vegetarian options: The only way you can have vegetarian is if you customize åñ existing sandwich. They can also do lettuce wraps (but don't ask for this in the drive thru as they have to get and use new heads of lettuce from the cooler). However, they do have a lot of ingredients. Their oil, of course, does not include tallow and in general they are supposed to use a different frier for the sides than for the chicken or fish.

Parking: Parking is no problem. Lot on two sides. Has good lighting at night and is in a good area.

Kid-friendliness: Very nice dining room with big windows. Many times not super busy inside so a little running around or loud voices can be tolerated

Wheelchair accessibility: Has a curb to get in. No automatic doors and it is not possible to see someone pulling up from behind the counter. So I would not plan on goojg alone. Wheelchair accessible right in front of main door. Has tables with chairs so can be used for wheelchair accessibility.“

“Super fast service. Placed a large order in the drive thru and they had it ready in a flash! Burritos were perfectly made to my order and they even remembered the sauces! Can't give the staff at this location enough praise! I live in Niles and will be frequenting this Buchanan location from now on when I want taco bell. So worth the extra drive time for fast and excellent service! 5/5 all day“

“I just read that this location is closing but I did want to give a shout out to Pamela for the free shake and cookie a week or two ago because that day was horrible from before I even got out of bed and despite having to wait longer than I should have for my food, the free stuff made it worthwhile. Hope you get better co-workers at your next job Pamela!“

“Their really wasn't nothing special about this place. I wasn't impressed with anything about this place or the service. What impressed me was the atmosphere. All the young children running for ice cream with money in hand. I'm not old but I swear it was like I stepped bin time.“
