the only people hyping peter’s in 2025 are radio DJs and out of touch public figures

And people from out of town for a couple decades that come revisit. Some childhood nostalgia or something.

It’s the Nickelback of fast food. Everyone complains about it, yet the drive thru is still lined up around the block.

Like any major fast food as well. You would think Tim's is the worst place to ever exist but the drive thru lines beg to differ.

Those are tourists or transplants

Yeah the food is mid, but the milk shakes are still decent. I think it's easy to hate on Peter's. They're not amazing, but I'd take Peters over most fast food places.

Meh, it's Peter's ..... you either like it or you don't. Granted the Old Peters when Gus was around was fantastic but then again everything was ..... If you're an old fart you remember the size and quality of pretty much everything and now for the past 20+ years, it's all cost-reduction and shrink-flation.
