Arby’s

Don’t think I’ve ever given a fast food joint 5 stars, but this place deserves it. The food is good, the restaurant is clean, and the crew here is very efficient. I have to mention Heather, one of the cashiers, she was amazing. She is super friendly, I watched her handle a long line of people with ease. Each customer was treated to a warm smile from her and friendly, positive attitude. A group of elderly people came in, and she was super friendly to them, even bringing their food out to them. I noticed another reviewer claims this is the «slowest fast food restaurant in all of Corvallis». Not true. Every time I’ve been here, they are really fast, in fact I’d say they are the fastest at getting your food to you. There have been several times that I’ve pulled into the drive thru when there’s a long line of cars, yet I’m back on the road with my food in just a few minutes. This Arby’s is very consistent, good food, fast friendly service.

This is the SLOWEST fast food restaurant in all of corvallis. Don’t do drive through if you anything you need to do.

Sometimes you have to ask yourself one question before you eat somewhere: Do I want food poisoning? Unfortunately that is the case with this Arby’s location. A year ago I ordered a roast beef sandwich at the drive thru only to find after I was out of town that the roast beef was so raw, blood was pooling in the wrapper. Haven’t had the stomach to order it since, but I have continued to eat their chicken sandwiches. Last week I ordered a Cravin chicken sandwich (crispy) and the chicken breast was so tough I couldn’t even bite thru it. So, I’m gonna have to pass on the food poisoning.

Every fast food restaurant has a gimmick. For Arby’s it’s the thinly sliced roast beef that they put into their sandwiches. Definitely not your traditional fast food burger joint, so if you’re looking for something different from the same old, same old, then I’d say think of Arby’s. Personally, I like the beef and cheddar (even though I know it’s fake cheese and probably is hardening my arteries faster than you can say high cholesterol…) and the spicy curly fries are pretty decent as well.

Having lived in a bigger metropolitan area for the last 10 years and then moving back to Corn Valley, the service at fast food restaurants is surprisingly decent. That includes this Arby’s location. The food is not rushed out the door, but does arrive quickly, and the wait staff is friendly. Prices are a bit higher then I would expect from fast food, but that is Arby’s, and you can usually find a coupon in the paper or in a mailer which will help with the sticker shock.
My favorite is and always has been the Beef-​n-​Cheddar but i’ve recently become infatuated with the Roast Burgers as well. Potato cakes instead of fries is an additional bonus option.
