Fairness requires me to mention that there are places in Scotland that will do you a deep-fried Mars bar. Or Curly-Wurly- or anything, really

Yeah. Their stuff is just reasonable fast food. Like I said, I’m impressed they made it work. I don’t hear much raving about them around here (maybe a little back in 2017 when they first opened), but I have heard that elsewhere they get a lot of word-of-mouth. Chick-Fil-A I hear about much, much more often. They still get giant lines around here during lunch time, even though they’ve been around for quite awhile now. (And I enjoy their food more, as do my kids, so I find myself there much more often.)
