How Arby's Has Endured Through the Years

[@glenneric1]

I love everything about Arby's. The meat, the buns, the curly fries, the sauce station. Yum.

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

Sauce station? The one I work at doesn't have one of those.

[@glenneric1]

@@MatthewTheWanderer Yeah. Paper mini cups and squeeze tubs for ketchup, horsey sauce, Arby sauce and three pepper sauce.

[@patrickdurham8393]

The 4 for $10 roast beef sandwiches still draw me into Arby's occasionally. I miss the potato cakes.

[@neoasura]

I feel old, I remember growing up poor, the only time we could go to Arby's was when they had a 5 for $5 coupon deal going.

[@dawng.8836]

[@giraffesinc.2193]

My Grandma used to buy a bunch of Arby's sandwiches and then freeze them. I wish I knew how much she paid, she had a TON!

[@tdpooh1972]

I always got the potato cakes with my sandwich. I was so sad that they got rid of them. Now, I get the 4-piece mozzerella sticks instead. They are SO GOOD!!

[@marknelson4856]

You can't beat it nowadays especially when McDonald's wants 2.89 for a little ass cheeseburger that was 69 cents when I was in high school back in the early mid '90s

[@army103]

Whenever I see comedies or sitcoms tease Arby's for being terrible, it always confuses me...I've always loved them, and I've never known anyone who hated their food!

[@MrsAikahime]

Probably paid segments from other fast food places

[@greed0599]

I genuinely hate arbys.

[@dmcgee3]

I can’t stand them but with any franchise it could be location. The one nearest to me is always dead and on a parking lot that’s more loose asphalt than anything else. Appears to have originally been built on a pile of loose dirt instead of bothering to level the ground first. The same standards appear to have always been upheld at that particular location. That being said I know plenty of people who like them in general so quite possibly I’ve only ever had bad experiences at a bad location

[@ganjahtron]

[@davidfrischknecht8261]

I always preferred Hardee's ham sandwiches to Arby's roast beef sandwiches.

[@Alabenson]

No one ever seems to talk about it, but Arby's has shockingly good mozzarella sticks. Like, legitimately better than many sit-down restaurants good.

[@melasnexperience]

Those are the best fast food mozzarella sticks, hands down!

[@tlcshelby414]

Yessss! When I worked at Arby’s I would start every shift with 2 motz sticks and 2 jalapeño bites with a jamocha shake 😋 Sonic’s are good too though.

[@Eargesplitten-Loudenboomer]

And jalapeno bites with the Branco Berry sauce

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

The first time I had some, they seemed worse than usual, I guess they got cold, but since then I try to steal one every time I have to go to the back to restock the fry station, while I work there.

[@Faze-2]

Try dipping them in the bronco berry sauce if you haven’t already. So good

[@ryproar11]

I worked at an Arby's in college. Honesty it was easier and less hassle than McDonald's and Burger King. I mean the best seller is literally just sliced meat on a bun. Couldnt get any easier than that. 😂

[@negative6442]

Probably less customer traffic than those two as well lol

[@catherinesanchez1185]

One of my early jobs back in the 80's . This was when EVERYONE and I mean everyone had to have a salad bar. They weren't set up for it, so I had to run buckets of ice to the salad bar all day (summer! ) to keep the veggies from wilting. Sometimes would get shifts comign in early to chop vegetables, so wholesome. Never worked the slicer though cuz I wasn't old enough and they actually obeyed the rules . Gave them credit for that. Had an accident when someone pulled a pan of freshly baked apple turnovers out of the oven and caught me in the arm. I still have the burn mark. LOL!

Arbys's endured by literally being better than most fast food places, and offering their sandwiches at a great price.

[@Chinothebad]

With how Arby's taste, I'm more willing to give them money than the likes of McDonalds on that alone.

[@Livnglrg]

Great price? When was the last time you ate at Arby’s? I ate there a couple months ago and it was very expensive from what it was….5 for $5 is long gone.

[@patrickaker4380]

9 dollars for a plain roast beef and small fry is not a great price.

[@LazyChillZone]

@@Livnglrg I mean, fast food in general is just terrible bang for your buck these days. But for me, I find the quality far superior for the price. But yeah it used to be dirt cheap and the quality was the same.

You ain’t alone, although about the fries. I’d say Freddy’s Custard fries are the best.

[@caturdaynite7217]

I like the fact that Arby's is probably the only drive thru fast food outfit to have cold sandwiches. I like the turkey ranch and bacon in the Summer. I don;t want a hot sandwich when it's hot outside. In the Winter, good ol' beef and cheddar or reg roast beef. They need bring back potato cakes. I love potatoe cakes!

[@jurdski]

[@KnightFerrocous]

I never understood the hate on Arby's. They are better than the major burger chains in essentially every way and are less deep fried BS so they are "healthier" for you even if in the most minor way.

[@CornerStoneLLC.]

The reason for their hate is because they advertise their mediocore roast beef sandwiches too much. That's just what I think though

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

You sound like you've never been to Arby's if you think they have less "deep fried BS"! Most of the crap on their menu is deep fried, including chicken sandwiches, chicken nuggets, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, mac & cheese bites, jalapeno bites, curly fries, crinkle fries, fish sticks, and even their wagyu burgers! Just because their roast beef sandwiches aren't deep fried doesn't mean they have less deep fried stuff! Also, unlike a lot of burger places, they don't sell salads!

So have always marched to the beat of my own drum. I wasn’t the kid that wanted a happy meal every chance I got. I honestly loved Arbys as a kid and still do as an adult. I loved that in high school I could get an Arby’s roast beef almost everyday in my school cafeteria (they did that in the 90s). I would even say that one of my favorite fast food restaurants and I will probably never turn it down.

[@kimbrey65]

I wish they'd bring back their potato cakes. Those were so good, and nobody else had them!

[@intzbk1]

As far as I know, my Arby's still has potato cakes. I don't eat there often but when I do I get the Jamocha shake, the potato cakes and a sandwich.

[@epistte]

Beef and cheddar and potato cakes was my go-to order.

[@jyo9735]

we have them now

[@Lawrence_Talbot]

Only thing I would’ve added is a brief summary about Hala Moddelmog. She was Arbys president (first female to be president/CEO of a restaurant company) and played a big role in breaking away from Wendy’s while reviving the brand. With her leadership, the company had 12 consecutive quarters of growth which was unheard of at that time

[@TheSoulCrisis]

Wow impressive......she sure has an interesting name. xD

[@Brian424]

@@MatthewTheWanderer I could've sworn their big sandwich was called the Giant Roast Beef but maybe I'm confusing Arby's with someplace else. Looking at their menu today, it looks like they just offer the Classic, Double, and Half-Pound roast beef sandwich sizes. The Big Montana was a half-pound, and that name is a lot catchier than just calling it plain ol' half-pound roast beef. They probably got tired of explaining to customers what a Big Montana was, though. I didn't know the Meat Mountain existed until you mentioned it. It's not offered on the normal menu so I guess you have to ask for it. That sandwich is a beast and looks awesome. I can see getting one about once a year around my birthday as a treat, after eating nothing for about a day to make room for it.

I never heard of "Rax" in my entire life. I like Arby's. Beef and Cheddar is my favorite. Back in the late 1980's Arby's briefly had an oblong sandwich with three types of cheese.

Groups would roll in and just grab stuff with any available utensil or even their hands, slinging and splashing food EVERYWHERE.

I have never seen an Arby's location that ever seemed that busy. Haven't been there in years, but I did like their Market Fresh sandwiches. I never cared for the curly fries myself, but that seemed to be a big winner for them above most fast food places. Not a knock on the company itself, but I always hated how my small town growing up somehow got 2 Arby's (that aren't that far from each other mind you) when we really could have used more variety in options.

[@WastedTalent-]

On Long Island, Arby's were far and few in between. The local one closed up in the 90's and there weren't any on the Island. Then one opened up in Hempstead, in the mall. My sister and I would make the trek every couple of months to get Arby's (we lived on the east end and it was an hour drive). Finally, a couple of years ago, another one opened locally. I moved to upstate NY since then and they are in almost every large town. I'm in my Arby's glory. Roast Beef Double with 2 packets of Arby's Sauce.

When ordering through DoorDash, everything is nicely packaged and sealed. My only complaint is the menu: I don't know if it's true nationwide, but my Arby's has scaled back their menu, eliminating some of my favorites like the Philly-style beef and peppers sandwich, salads, and of course the potato cakes.

It was a sad day when Arby's culled both the Philly Steak and the Loaded Italian

[@richardadams4928]

Always liked them, and really applaud their sense of humor about Jon Stuart's railery.

[@SlicedZucchini]

Beef 'N Cheddar or maybe the Reuben, I probably average like one sandwich a year if even, but when there is something new I like trying new things so that's probably where most visits occur just to try something once

[@SlicedZucchini]

oh, the French Dip sandwich is actually pretty good, as long as you don't dip it into the sauce, it's fine with the sauce but I think it tastes better without it

[@Troy-McClure81]

I still have a stack of the Gold foil ashtrays they use to give out for the tables😂Ahh the 90s the last decade you could smoke anywhere lol I quit smoking but i love to take a deep breath when I walk past a group huddled together outside.

[@xpatsteve]

I've been an Arby's fan since the 70s when I worked at a mall and had lunch there at least once a week. The classic beef and cheddar plus some curly fries are still my go-to order.

[@Grindtone603]

I've always loved Arby's. I still miss the sandwich they did in 2015 with candied bacon on it. My go to now is the smoked brisket sandwich.

[@timbert4672]

I’ve heard jokes about this chain in the Simpsons/Family Guy and the likes for decades and never understood since we don’t have them in the UK. Now I’ve seen this I am a bit puzzled by it as I LOVE roast beef. I’m always making myself roast beef toasties (what you call grilled cheese) and such. I also like to make myself a roast beef and caramelised onion gravy sandwich on a burger bun from time to time, but you must be very hungry before having one as the trick is to eat it before the bun dissolves!

[@Livnglrg]

Why not just dip the sandwich into the gravy which is basically what we call a french dip.

[@timbert4672]

@@Livnglrg You don’t get the caramelised onions if you do that.

[@joeyjamison5772]

I used to eat frequently at Arby's during the 70s & 80s, their real roast beef sandwiches were delicious. But when they switched to that artificial stuff, I stopped. For decades. Fast forward to last Sunday: I guess the TV commercial for the hamburger finally got to me and I stopped in and got one along with the crinkle fries. I have to admit, it was good enough to go back for.

I work at an Arby’s myself and I love it personally. It’s easier than any other fast food job I’ve worked and I’ve had 2 before Arby’s and the prices are better. For example: Right now a Classic Roast Beef goes for $5.17 and a Classic Beef n’ Cheddar is $6.15 while a Burger King Burger & McDonalds Burger is a lil over $8 and our options have more of a variety our Roast Beef to Market Fresh Sandwhiches. Say what you will but I will always think Arbys is better especially with their Chicken. Fight me.

[@psinclairjr]

Arby beef n cheddar...LOVE IT

[@mccallosone4903]

they used have big sandwiches, now they put 3 thin little meat slices on bread and call it a sandwich. if they still looked like the sandwiches in the ads, it might be good

[@jyo9735]

the location youre going to is shiddy

[@WarMasterGeneral]

"I've never seen anyone enter an Arby's or ask me if I wanted Arby's!" "That's funny. You know, I've never been asked about Culver's, Long John Silvers, Schlotzsky's, Rally's, Hardy's, White Castle..."

[@gordtron]

hopefully, one day, the Spicy Three Pepper sauce makes its way to Canada. it walks among the greats.

[@MattTheDreamer7199]

I’ve been to Arby’s a handful of times, especially since I’ve gotten older. I never understood the hate, especially compared to other fast food and its quality. They make a decent buffalo chicken sandwich.

[@Sammy-34079]

Oh, please. Decent? Buffalo chicken? Come on, buddy. You're giving Arby's way too much credit. That buffalo chicken sandwich they serve is like a soggy, lukewarm mess. If you think that's decent, you need to get yourself a proper chicken sandwich from somewhere else. Maybe try Portillo's Chicago-style Italian beef, or hell, even a decent burger joint down the street. Anything's better than that crap they serve at Arby's. So don't tell me you actually think that's decent.

[@robtymec2045]

Like most fast food, a good chunk of Arby's menu is pretty bad. But they offer something different from all the other guys Which, for me, hits a nice niche. When I'm tired of burgers, I go to them. I also love that they're the only guys that do curly fries. And I will admit: their chicken sandwiches are actually really quite good. Better than a lot of fast food places that actually specialize in chicken sandwiches.

[@MaryS2022]

Very informative video. ❤

[@IsmailAbdulMusic]

Arby's has good seasoned curly fries 🍟 🍟

[@derek-64]

I may not eat at Arby's very often but i do enjoy their sliders from time to time. I like the pizza sliders in particular.

[@hellhound1389]

Those are gone. My favorites disappeared as well. They had awesome roast turkey and I got the deluxe turkey club or the turkey gyro. What I really miss is the breakfast because they had great biscuits and gravy

[@derek-64]

@@hellhound1389 last time i checked my local Arby's still had them and that was a couple months ago. But again i don't go there very often.

[@jfrankcarr]

The main problem I have had with Arby's is the poor customer service that seems common at most locations. If the food is done right, it's usually good.

[@JamesWoodring-mu2iz]

you must be liberal ass democrat . self entitled spoiled brat. eat sh it clown

[@bigloo609]

In 40 years, I've eaten at 5 different Arby's locations and have always been impressed with the customer service. They've always been friendly, welcoming and accurate when filling my order.

[@matthewweng8483]

Arby's has endured because it's frigging delicious... Especially the Jamocha shake.

[@Strawbert94]

Ya know? I never understood why Arby's gets so much hate (that's unjustified), other than "for the meme". Not once have I had a single bad experience with it & everything I get there is done excellently, ESPECIALLY their mozzarella sticks hoooooo BOY do they slap + a half pound Beef & Cheddar w/ a warm cherry turnover... 🤤

[@Strawbert94]

And do NOT skimp on the Arby's sauce because it's also bangin' too.

[@jennanidanu1]

Arby's use to be a great place, back in the day. Who remembers when the bun on a Arby's sandwich would soak up the drippings from the meat, which where red? That was when the Arby's sandwich was Really good, back when they first introduced the jamoca shake which was back in the 60s. My mom and I would stop at Arby's on the way back from the beach and back then they didn't have a lot of different sammy's, just the roast beef and I think they had turkey too, not sure about that though. I would put salt on mine and my mom had the horsy sauce, which I still don't care for. I was around 7 at the time, man that was a long time ago I guess! LOL

[@packnetadaija]

Yeah I mean honestly I know people roast arbys and I stayed away from Arby’s for years because of the constant roasting, but on a whim a few years ago I tried arbys and honesty it’s not that bad idk why it gets such a bad rap
