Bring back A&W, Wendy’s and Arby’s
Could someone please bring back my three favorite franchises to Kuwait. A&W originally opened up in the 80′s and then shut down only to open up again in the 90′s and to be shut down once more. Arby’s opened up in the late 80′s and then shutdown once the owner got the Burger King Franchise. Wendy’s opened up in the early 90′s to be shutdown for some unknown reason.
With Kuwait being the 8th fattest country in the world you would think that every imaginable franchise would fight for the opportunity to open here. How come my three favorite franchises no longer exist in Kuwait?

I know that this is a bit off topic.. but have KDD just doubled the prices on all their products??
I think so cuz the other day while buying KDD 250ml full cream milk I noticed the Saudi version which was 500ml was selling for the same price.
I also heard that the KDD that is being sold in Saudi is much cheeper.. what the hell is going on??
I really like the cheeseburgers of Wendy’s. Only got to try them a month ago when I first arrived here in the states. Awesome cheeseburgers…
Wendy’s was my favourite when I was a kid, A&W tried it once before they shut it down.
Both great and I’m missing them a lot.
Hungry bunny aswell!
Arby’s is being brought down to Kuwait soon. That would be good coz I thought shutting it down was a stupid move since it had a cult following. I love their roast beef sandwiches.
yes of course yummy i never order anything but the roast beef it’s extra effort put into a juicy roast beef sandwich
you’re serious?? thats fucking cool!
I’d go for the Wendy’s franchise if i had the money.
Mark, I can confirm that one of those franchises is 100% confirmed for a return…….
Crocko rock which one and when?????
has anyone seen a rest. called BIG BOYS on fourth ring?
i thought it was either a strip club or a place that sold weight lifting supplements.
I was Wendy’s back too.
Maybe once I graduate by first real life bznz experience wOuld be brininG it back.
I miss windy’s frosty ice cream .
and A&W’s free refull root beer
I remember arby’s was really advanced, they had touch screens to order from.
i have had food poisoning from A&W burgers twice, that place was unsanitary which is properly why it was shut down
i liked wendy’s though, Arby’s sells mostly roast beef which i hate
im all for A&W get some taco bell !!!!
Yes for Wendy’s. No for the other two.
Arby’s curly fries are the best. They should bring it back
sfsa78 – If I can’t find Almarai milk and juice, I go without milk and juice. I noticed last week that Carrefour weren’t stocking it any more, and TSC had ‘run out’. Maybe KDD are ‘wasta’ing them out due to Almarai’s popularity (they’re always the first to sell out).
I visited the Almarai farms outside Riyadh once. Amazing. You would think you were in the green firelds of Europe.
arbys plzzzzzzzzzzzzz
i think arbys still for al homaizi group
what about cheese cake factory ?? it was meant to be launched at marina mall but nothing yet !
Yeah I’m in for Arby’s coming back, miss those cool Roast beefs and the touch panel ordering menu ^_^.
ARBY’s aaaaaaaaaah .. i want it back plzzzzzzzzz
Ohh you remind me of arbys curly fries :( it was the best!
I want Wendy’s , Arby’s & A&M to come back soon plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, that is so sad , they are best fast food :(
Wendy’s is gone from Saudi Arabia :<
never heard of Arby’s, looks interesting
At least we still have one branch of A&W left (if its not there anymore we can trust Tamimi to get some canned A&W drinks ;) )
I was thinking of Long John Silvers or Taco Bell to bring to kuwait after 5yrs (if i have enough money:P) …. but about comment #23 (Zabo0o6a): YESSSS!!! that place is awesome…
if no one gets it, i will give it a try when i hav the money :P
oh shit BIG BOY is going to open in kuwait?
A&W is the best one for me especially the chessfries tasty, last year i saw it in qatar airport hope it’s going back to kuwait .
Long John Silvers was zbala
Well for me the halal food of these resturants is going to be different since I go to these franchises here in the US.
Please, if they’re going to bring back Arby’s, then they should stick to the original menu and skip on the locally made sandwiches (we were like the only fucking country to own a hambrugers-serving Arby’s!!!). I really really miss Wendy’s. They used to be open really late during college nights back in the states. But I remember back then when it used to be around, the meals were actually expensive. I do remember some meals were priced around 1.8 kD and 2.250 KDs. So you can figure out the price of meals with nowdays prices !!! I don’t think I’ll afford that for a burger meal :S
Ok so I live in Newfoundland, Canada, and this is actually the third time I got food poisoning from A&W. Be glad that you dont have A&W there!!
OMG! i miss Wendy’s like hell, i spent my childhood there, used to go there every night with my family for dinner, i still wonder why did they shut it down.. every thing was perfect there.. the staff, the food and the location. even the egyptian security guy :P
A&W was amazing also, specially with it’s free root beer refull.
Arby’s had this amazing touch screens to order from.. it was pretty awesome and weird years ago!
Wendy’s was the best in salem al-mubarak street anyways.
arbyssssssssssssssssssssssss
i was a ddicted to it when i was in university espacilly the roast chiken
it was really stupid idea to close it
I wish they wd re open it
Oh God u really brough memories to me, I was searching for Arbys in kuwait!!! and here i find Arbys freaks lol
:) Nice topic
If you like fast-food hamburgers, malts, and pretty decent chicken sandwiches and french fries, you should try to get a “Whataburger” restaurant in Kuwait!! Good for a big chain operation. I wouild say better than Wendy’s.
