    Real pictures no filter, real person, real review. I had the chicken, bacon, ranch tots. Crispy chicken. Also comes with pickles and tomato, which I chose to leave off. As you can see in the photos, the ranch is literally poured onto my dish it was standing about a half inch in my bowl. I advise to hold the ranch and dip or pour it yourself. My husband had the Classic Double Burger with plain tots, which was delicious!!!

    Honestly, I was going to give 4 stars, but thought it over and realized that nothing really merited losing a start. If you're expecting high end burgers or whatever, this is not it. But a nicely cooked smash burger, fries, fried pickles, milkshake? Yes ma'am, this *is* it! I'm not normally a milkshake gal, but my friend gave me sips of her chocolate brownie milkshake, and wow, did it slap! It was so thick I didn't get a good mouthful at first, but the flavor was fantastic. It smoothed out over time and was easier to sip. Highly recommend it if you're in the mood!

    I work 5 minutes from Wayback and stopped coming for lunch about 2 years ago because of the service & cold fries. Recently, over the last year or so, the employees have changed and I have returned as a customer. The 2 ladies that are typically there offer excellent service, friendliness, and my food is always fresh. They are a big reason why I consider going to Wayback for lunch & dinner.
