Checkers

Return a couple times. the worker has definitely changed. Sunny who doesn’t seem to want to be there did everything wrong. He can’t even get the order right, keep complaining «she should have updated it» I am assuming he is referring to the owner. Took about 5min and he say just pay xxx with annoyance and he did not give a receipt. When the order came he said it’s everything in there, I was so pissed I didn’t want to be in the store any longer knowing he probably got the order wrong and I was right, missing my fries. The owner should really hire someone who wanted to work. The kitchen guys looks hardworking, the taller guy seem to have more experience.

They opened up on Junction!!! Nice finally. The place is very clean. The food made to order. I’ve been feening the fries and went in just for that. The fries were just made, pippin’ hot. The Checkers fries are just how I remembered, seasoned and crispy. Delicious. My only other item to try is the cheeseburger. I’ll try them again soon.

Fast food… it’s not going to be your healthy stop lol. I got off the Junction Blvd station on the 7 train I wondered what was that fried chicken smell??? Which lead me to Checkers. In the pass I drove all the way to Long Island actually Elmont to have checkers fries. Currently, I can not eat any fast food because I’m watching my weight but I picked up some food for my brother in law (I was with my sister). We Got him the combo chicken sandwich with fries and soda for $ 6!!! Not a bad deal okay I know I have to confess I had three fries couldn’t resist it lol. He said it was very good and from my three fries I can say… just as I remembered crispy, bucket seasoned and they were hot :). Staff was nice and order came out quickly. If your in the mood for some good fries a little greasy but crunchy this is your place.

I am giving a five-​star because I feel like people are being harsh so read my review to get the info. It’s more of a 3.75 star place for me.
I came into Checkers on a Friday night late, around 10:30 or so. The store looks brand spankin’ shiny and new. I didn’t know Checkers was on Junction Blvd until I saw a Groupon. The person at the counter was really sweet to me. Nice kid. He helped me along since I am not familiar with the Checkers menu. He was patient too. He was not rude, he didn’t roll his eyes at me, he didn’t sigh, didn’t huff and puff at me, no bad attitude. I hope he stays the same! I still remember his name!
I ordered the Big Buford burger (2 beef patties) with no cheese, the chicken club sandwich with no cheese, two fish sandwiches and a small soda. The total was $ 11.49. Woah! What a deal. I had to spend $ 10 because of the Groupon. That was a lot of food for $ 11.49! There is a Unilocal review claiming Checkers is more expensive than McD’s and BK. Sure, that Unilocaler is entitled to his opinion, but so am I. In my opinion, The other Unilocaler is incorrect. Checkers is actually cheaper than McD’s and BK, IMHO. Checkers is always running specials on their food. They have lots of «2 for» deals.
It’s fast food so I expect it to be salty and fatty, don’t expect otherwise.

The food is really really salty no matter what you order, and you’ll need to wait about 8 – 10 mins for a burger., not so snappy for a burger joint. Sometimes staff here will forget your orders. Prices ain’t cheap compare to McD or BK.

Apparently this Checkers location has been open for about 3 weeks now. I had heard of Checkers before but never saw one, but I went in because I saw the sign for chili cheese fries. Come on, CHILI! And CHEESE! On FRIES. SEASONED fries! Ahh heaven.
They had a «value menu» which consists of 2 burgers for $ 5 or another price, depending on what you get. I got the double cheeseburger and spicy chicken, and from the regular menu, a crispy fish sandwich, along with chili cheese fries and a strawberry cheesecake sundae stacker.
All the burgers were good, much better tasting than McD’s or BK’s… definitely not healthier, but what fast food joint is? Chili cheese fries were amazing, not gonna lie. I wish they had tater tots *nudge nudge*. I’d say the glutton level is similar to Sonics. I’m no pro on fast food but it’s decent, quick and fairly inexpensive. I’d go back for a quick fix and the fries. The sundae was good too.
This guy eating asked if they fried the bacon and the crew behind the counter said they bake it, so now you know. I took everything to go, but the place was clean and staff was nice.
