Pro Tips
- 1.Order from the secret menu: ask for 'animal style' fries (melted cheese, grilled onions, and spread) which kids love, or get a grilled cheese for vegetarian little ones.
- 2.Visit during off-peak hours (2pm-5pm) to avoid long lunch and dinner rushes, especially on weekends.
- 3.Ask for extra stickers and paper hats at the counter to keep little ones entertained while waiting.
- 4.The drive-thru can be very long, so go inside with kids for faster service and to let them stretch their legs.
- 5.Request your burgers and fries with 'light salt' if you prefer less sodium for younger children.
