midnight drive-throughs are terrifying what do you want just a burger we don't have any but isn't that all you sell but sometimes I just need a midnight snack which is why I'm going to every drive-thru after midnight to see who does it best and of course it's a competition starting with McDonald's here are the rules one I have to be served past midnight two if they give me food poisoning they're disqualified that might seem like low standards but you just never know and three I have to order my typical meal at each restaurant to make sure I can judge them fairly to their daytime standards but take notes because this is about to be a free master class in drive-thru expertise can I do a Big Mac anything else and then I'll also do a small fry and a medium iced vanilla latte please all right second window please for it being midnight she seems like she's in a pretty good mood which is important because I'll be scoring all of these drive-throughs based on two things their service and the food itself both out of five and the restaurant with the highest score by the end of the video wins the coveted trophy I found in my closet the other day when I was cleaning so I felt like you know I should put it to use or something anyway back at McDonald's thank you so much let's try the food starting with the Big M which actually looked pretty fresh not only is it hot and fresh but it looks pretty [Music] fire oh yeah after midnight that's hitting different but when it came down to the fries oh those are tough okay they feel like they've been sitting out for hours but most importantly the iced coffee I'm not going to lie it's like 30° out and um this just freezing my [Music] hand yeah buddy to be honest with you this is better than the other two items combined as for McDonald's service I'm going to give him a four I got to leave room for a little bit of improvement and as for Taste the Big Mac and the coffee were great but the fries were a little concerning three giving McDonald's a total score of seven and they're also in the lead that's a pretty good start and I got to admit some of the restaurants coming up oh I don't even think they stand a chance but next up drive-thru number two Taco Bell I'm going to confess something that I probably shouldn't this is my late night drive-thru of choice which is scary because every time I come here I'm probably destroying at least 3% of my body but hey what's the worst that can happen okay yeah maybe that okay thank you but hopefully it's not too long because the wait time does indeed matter make can I do a crunch trap Supreme with no tomatoes anything else and then also a Doritos taco supreme with no tomatoes and then the last thing will be the cinnamon twist please 99 years thank you look the excitement wasn't as much as McDonald's but I can't blame her it's 1: in the morning thank you than you brights dope thank you if you're going to complement my setup I'm going to do you right plus one point for service on a real note though this definitely is not legal so maybe just don't tell anyone but at the end of the day what's more important Road Safety or a good YouTube video Road Safety kids please don't be like me thank you so much you too it wasn't as fast as McDonald's but they were dope so like who cares first off the crunch rat and unfortunately I'm not going to lie completely forgot to turn my microphone on for this shot so allow me to narrate oh man but as for the taco I mean come on was good as always however the cinnamon twists when I went to take them out of the bag they were literally everywhere but in the bag they were supposed to be in but hey you know what they still taste great in fact I don't know what I'm saying right here but I imagine it's something like this has got to be the best thing I've ever put in my mouth as for the service despite a little bit of a weight and the whole cinnamon twist situation it was pretty good I'll give it a solid three and for the food I mean come on it was just delicious and Taco Bell is definitely a midnight slapper 4. 5 which puts them in the Lea Taco Bell was great and all but I'm really excited for the final restaurant and for good reason it's going to be an adventure to say the least but anyways our next restaurant is Papa John's I know what you're thinking Addie that's not a drive-thru it counts in my book okay it's fast food it's open past midnight who cares that I can't drive through the establishment I'm going to go order a pizza so I went inside but when I got in there was nobody oh wait here we how it going I was just going to place an order if I could can I do a small cheese pizza do you guys do like a cookie is that I'll do one of those as well so I sat down and started the timer and lowkey shout outs my phone because even though it was falling this time lapse is oddly cinematic but honestly after 10 minutes of waiting I was legitimately getting tired in the Papa John which is not what you want when you're getting your midnight snack but eventually thank you appreciate it the rain is so cold that it hurts so I'm going to eat this in here if you know you know we time was just under 14 minutes but let's give this a shot starting with the pizza which truly was looking pretty good I think she smells pretty fire and one of my favorite Parts about Papa John's is this garlic dipping sauce not quite sure what's going on with the end of this pizza of course you got to dip it that's actually better than I remember and for the second part of my order we got a cookie oh why is it like powdery I don't even know how to explain it I'm going to be completely honest here I would never come here late at night not that it's their fault but a 14-minute wait for a midnight snack is just too long I was literally falling asleep waiting as for service I got to give it a 2 and 1/2 and for the taste I mean it's kind of just decent three POA Johns no no no more like mid Johns sorry I had nothing for that one but next up Wendy to be honest with you I hardly even go here during the day but hey maybe it's even better at midnight I don't know if they're still doing that like adaptive pricing thing but the menu should be pretty cheap right now since it's 2: in the morning as I was driving up I saw that they have a crabby patty now just why why do you even have that also their sign was terrifying why does she look like she's staring into my soul but anyway can I do a pretzel bacon eater okay anything else and then can I also do cheese fries and then last it will just be a small frosty I have vanilla right now is that okay yep that's fine all right so you thank you oh look at the red had two for Wendy's be right up we're just waiting for the meat to come off the grill sure thank you waiting for the meat to come off the grill that means we're getting it fresh see befe thank you we got the food she said be safe honey on the way out I appreciate it that's some good customer service first up the bacon ater not only do we have to wait because they were waiting for it to come off the grill there's also a movie quote worthy post about the food being fresh so I'm excited for [Music] this oh my God just this combination of a pretzel bun on a burger with bacon that just screams eat me after midnight other than the pretzel and the bacon though it is a little bit Bland so but how about the cheese fries that cheese is looking awfully [Music] still um I don't know what happened something went wrong with these I don't don't know what happened but if you're at Wendy's you can't forget the frosty oh yeah cinnamon twists from Taco Bell are great and all but this might be the perfect late night sweet treat but as for the rating the food came out pretty quick and she wished me to be safe granted there wasn't much energy but I got to give him a four as for the food the burger was a little bit Bland and I don't know what happened with the cheese fries 2. 5 unfortunately with a 6.
5 Wendy's will not be taking the lead but that brings us to our next restaurant Burger King strangely enough I've had a lot of people tell me that Burger King is better at night but hey let's go give this a shot how I hi can I just do a chicken sandwich can I also do onion rings onion rings yep also just do like a medium tap water than you that's it please thank you you're welcome I don't know I just felt like I needed a water after all the crap I've been eating tonight this is taking quite a while I'm not going to lie oh there he is sauce uh no thank you thank you have a going not the fastest but it's okay the food just has to be good first up the chicken sandwich I think the lettuce has gone bad this thing is looking kind of [Music] sad this is my favorite item and I still don't like it we still got UND Wings it's fine somehow these are bland too Burger okay what is going on but hey we still got tap water that's refreshing all I'm going to say is you know it's not good when the tap water is the best thing that you got yeah let's just move on sorry BK but you're definitely not winning and that brings us to Duncan this one's bringing me back to my teenage days I know I said Taco Bells my current go-to I forgot how much I used to love Duncan this is open all through the night a 24-hour drive-thru and let me tell you I think this might be the most underrated late night pick that there is I haven't done this since I was like 16 I'm so happy to be here all right about the way what can I get you to can I do an everything bagel with tastu with cream cheese anything else and then do you guys have any glazed donuts do I'll do one of those and last thing will just be a small hot caramel macchiato 8. 97 sweet thank you if you have no idea how hyped I am that they actually have a glazed donut it is hard to get a that's in stock nowadays at Duncan I'm just saying out of all the drive-throughs I've been to so far this is the only line I've run into and it's one car I'm pretty sure it's the same guy that used to work here when I was 16 years old give this man a race thank you so much have a good one you too I'm so excited for this coffee right now let's start with our first item The Bagel here we go oh my God so simple but yet just so good something tells me that donut will be no different oh my God this is so the caramel [Music] maiato oh well that's awkward that is really strong I think he forgot to put the sugar in it it's still good but it's just not what I wanted look as for service I got a hand to the guy he's working a relatively busy drive-thru on his own but the coffee wasn't made right and the wait was pretty long so despite me having respect for the guy do still have to play fair two and for Taste overall even though the coffee wasn't quite right it's still good so I'm going to give the taste of four I got to be honest teenage me is just devastated right now I can't even explain how sad I am about that one but hopefully that last restaurant can at least make up for this not being as good as I hope Welcome to our next location dominoes I know I know again technically not a drive-thru but it's fast food it counts and I'm going to be honest if they manage to make a pizza quick I think they might stand a good chance at winning this but let's head inside and find out of course it's raining again the second I need to get out of my car it starts raining what's up with this but I got inside and placed my order I just looking to place an order can I do a small cheese pizza and then do the Simon twist just those two and then also do a S then I took a seat started the timer and I just had to wait but eventually my order was ready thanks let's dig in if you're going to Dominoes just get yourself a plain cheese pizza honestly it's just the best way to go but don't forget the ranch cuz if you're not dipping your pizza in ranch let's be real why are you eating pizza oh my God that's hot oh but it's so good garlic crust baby you can't beat this and for dessert we got ourselves some cinnamon twists this is my dad and I's favorite dessert item from Domino's and it comes with this amazing icing you just can't beat it oh my when they're fresh and they're doughy and they're hot and they're warm and they're sing this is one of those fast food joints that just hits different after midnight but as for the rating I got to be honest this might be the perfect thing for your stomach past midnight and not only that it's just the perfect combo so for taste I got to give them a five however as for service I got to be honest I just can't see you waiting more than 10 minutes for your midnight snack to be fair they did actually make it on the faster side of things and they were very nice for it being this late at night so honestly I got to give them a three giving them a total score of eight that's impressive now if you excuse me we got to head to our final restaurant which is going to be easier said than done we made it to the airport I got to be honest it's been a week in a half since I was at that Domino's but it's okay because we're headed to Dallas but now I actually do have a flight to catch and not wanting to repeat the events of the haunted hotel video update we did not make the flight I went ahead and ran to my [Music] gate Hey look it's my rental car perfect for going through the drive-thru ladies and gents we're in Dallas and I could not be more excited to go to this drive-thru however it is only 1016 so per rule number one I have to wait like 2 hours and the metime I think I'm just going to take a nap in the car how far is this seat going to go back what the heck it's still going why would I ever mean this anyway we'll get to the drivethru eventually we're here I'm so excited right now ladies and gentlemen welcome to Water Burger now there's a very specific reason I wanted to come here when I was looking at the menu I noticed something that I've never seen anywhere else the patty melt look at this thing it is a grilled cheese and a cheeseburger combined into one so without further Ado it's time to hit the drivethru can I do the Patty milk the meal uh just a sandwich do you want the grill onions and everything that comes on it yes please okay anything else and then can I also do a side of fries okay anything else for you today and then can I also just do a small uh vanilla shake small little Shake yes sir anything else that's it 1545 first one though all righty thank you service so far is looking good thanks have a nice one thank you too there's no way right now let's try it I know you normally start with the sandwich but I got to save the Patty MEK for last so first out the fries I can't believe I'm here right now let's try the [Applause] fries oh no oh no please don't let this entire experience be overwhelmingly disappointing I've been let down so many times in life please don't let it be right now look they're not bad but they're not great either let's try the shake surely this will make up for [Music] things oh it's thick oh okay this hits different after midnight but now the thing we've all been waiting for hly explain to me how this could possibly be bad it's a grilled cheese and a cheeseburger combined into one I don't even want to wait anymore let's just try this thing oh my God it is just as good as I hoped it would be I'm so happy right now it's time for the rating the employees were wonderful the wait time was a couple minutes longer than I would have liked but overall the service was really good and I have to give it a score of a four out of five now as for the taste to be honest with you the fries were slightly underwhelming but the shake is the best thing I've ever put in my mouth and the patty melt is just as good as I imagin I got to give him a solid 4.
