| - I'm a big fan of 4C. Been going there often since July 2014 when I first found out about it.
(prices listed are accurate as of January 2016)
Notes:
- They have a website with the menu including prices (and it's the current menu, not outdated)
- Good location (at a major intersection)
- Good hours (open quite late for the area) and open 7 days a week
- They offer delivery (min $25) but I've never utilized it
- Accepts cash, debit, credit
- Halal, if you care about that
- Lots of options: chicken, wraps, burgers, sandwiches, fries, ice cream, smoothies, sundaes, milkshakes, coffee, slush drinks, poutine, coleslaw, etc.
I can't comment on the prices for every single thing, but their "Toony Loony" everyday special is a fantastic deal. It's what I get like 90% of the time. $3.29 gets you 1 leg, 1 thigh, a side of fries, and a 16oz fountain drink that you can refill yourself. That's $3.45 with tax and that price has remained since they opened.
They will ask you spicy or mild. I choose spicy but both are good. Their spicy fries are quite tasty. I wouldn't call them spicy at all, but more just "seasoned". Same with the chicken.
Speaking of that chicken -- it's always tasty, cooked properly, and well seasoned. Definitely no issues there, especially at that price. I definitely feel like I am getting my monies worth. Also, you can add extra fries to that deal for $1 more (which I often do lol)
If you order just that deal, you'll usually have it within 2 or 3 minutes. It's been super slow a few times, but that's rare.
Make note that you can also substitute the leg/thigh for a breast, for $1.75 more per piece - which is not just a good price, but the chicken breasts they have there are HUGE! (if you do this substitution, it'll take 15 minutes, so maybe call ahead). I make this substitution every few visits and it's super worth it.
Other things to note:
- They have 3 walk-in specials ($2.29 each) which are 6 nuggets, or 4 wings, or 1 chicken wrap. I've tried all 3 at least once. I recommend their nuggets and wrap, bit didn't think the wings were that good
- Their coleslaw is fine, but nothing special ($2.29). I'd say the same about their poutine ($3.99)
- Some of their dipping sauces really help kick it up a notch ($0.25/each). Their honey garlic and creamy garlic are my faves... they also have hot sauce, plum, sweet and sour, and barbecue.
- They now have a 2nd location (1093 O'Connor) which has the same menu + donuts, bagels, muffins, etc (I havent been there)
Conclusion:
Give 4C Broaster a try! You'll probably like it. I know I do :)
(P.S. During the school year, avoid going between 11:30 and 12:15 Mon-to-Fri because there's a school around the corner, and the place will be PACKED with students. You'll probably be waiting 20 min just to place your order.)
