| - First to review!
I've been passing by this Checker's for months waiting for it to be built so I could try it out. I know we have one out there around Boulder Highway but I never seem to get out to that part of town often.
Going to these fast food joints for a first time, I generally like to try the basics on the menu. Chances are if you can handle the basics effectively, the rest of your menu should be OK. With Checker's I was just passing through, so all I ordered was two All-American Cheeseburgers from their value menu for $1 each.
It is their grand opening, and this Checker's was pretty packed. There were folks filling the dining room and the drive thru was full. There was noise everywhere behind the counter, fries being dropped, orders being mistaken. Very likely for workers still trying to get the menu items down since it's all new, so I had no issues with errors this time around. They just need some time to settle in.
My order was quick and easy to make, so I was in and out of Checker's in no time. Service was friendly and quick, and the counter layout is very similar to those of other fast food joints like McDonald's, Burger King, and Carl's Jr.
What is the most different on Checker's menu and what makes them stand out is their wing menu. Yep, orders of chicken wings! I can see why the place is popular and has a bit of a cult status around these parts of town. You can get a burger, and some wings all at the same place. No other fast food giant can offer this currently with lots of success. Not just plain ol' wings either, Checker's 'Crazy Good Wings' have flavor options:
-Buffalo
-Honey BBQ
-Asian Kick (hiya!)
-Angry Buffalo
-Garlic Parmesan
The orders I did see go out of the kitchen looked pretty appetizing. I may have to try an order the next time I'm around. Tasty.
Checker's menu is a cross between McDonald's, Burger King, and Sonic's. You can get your cheeseburgers, bacon cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, and fish sandwiches. But you can also get grilled hot dogs, cheese sticks (which Checker's calls 'Monsterella Stix', and chili cheese fries. Their fries aren't of the regular tater either, looks like they are seasoned somehow but they do look good. Another plus, Coca-Cola products! If you can serve me Coke then you have a star in my book.
Back to my plain All-American Cheeseburgers? Pretty basic, but they were pretty good. Actually better than a McDonald's cheeseburger in my opinion. I like the sesame seed bun, burger (which I think is flame broiled), cheese, pickle, mustard, and ketchup. It was very similar to the Burger King cheeseburger which I like very much. Only thing I would change would maybe be more pickle, add some mayo. It looks like I will probably be back to try something else.
Checker's...now with TWO locations in town!
