This review is going to be pretty short because Johnny Rockets is basically a fast food restaurant. However, it looks like a diner and it will make you feel slightly better about yourself for not going to McDonalds. It reminds me of the diners in Archie comics where the milkshakes looked delicious and the burgers looked so small Jughead somehow managed to eat 10 of them.
Their shakes were indeed very good. They were served in an old-timey glass with extra shake on the side. I ordered their chocolate banana milkshake and it did not disappoint. I'm a sucker for banana in liquid form.
The burgers however were not so small that I could eat 10 at a time. The burger was delicious though (by fast food standards). A more substantial bun than the usual fast food chain.
We also ordered some fries and onion rings to go on the side. I personally prefer McDonald's fries, they are thinner and had more salt. These are more like steak fries that I'm not a fan off. However, Johnny Rockets does win in the onion rings department - purely because I don't know of any other fast food place that offers onion rings...
In summary, if you're hankering for some fast food and are in the area, Johnny Rockets is a solid choice. The service was very friendly and competent, they are accommodating of your gluten allergy and they have a fantastic range of milkshakes. Also, you get to pretend you are in an Archie comic.
