I and my friends in pre-med used to frequent this fast food chain back in the 90s because of their double spaghetti promo for the price of less than PhP 25 and of course their famous rootbeer float. Those were the happy days until it died down in Manila for unknown reason.
Some 17 years after, I was like a kid again when I and my 2 other colleagues went grocery shopping and enjoyed lunch at A&W in Jusco Mall in Seberang Prai City, Burkit Mertajam…It’s so nostalgic! LOL!
I bet loyal Pinoy patrons of A&W before in Manila also miss that chilled mug of rootbeer float…
For someone like me whose daily lunch last month was mostly spicy and curried from the university canteen, a bun of cheeseburger, curly fries, and a large chilled mug of rootbeer float with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream were indeed pure happiness on a tray.
Although our kid is known partial to McDonald’s, I know Gabby and even Tina will like it too…
And you?




























.. i remember that gelo! haha. there used to be one in cubao, megamall and the one in morayta that we frequent before. nawala na nga lang bigla ano? well i truly miss that classic rootbeer float!
those were the days in feu that our breaks revolved in jollibee, dunkin donuts, mcdonald’s, pinky pop and yes, a&w…kaka-miss din talaga!
i don’t drink rootbeer…but i love onion rings!
i see. there’s onion rings too in a&w. pareho tayo, i also favored onion rings but like it better when dipped in mayo.
oo nga bakit nga ba sila nawala? they are the pioneer for rootbeer float. buti meron dyan.
yup. good thing malaysia has a&w…
i miss the Morayta branch back in college and the old Greenbelt and Makati Ave. branch, which we frequent during my first few years in the telecom industry…nakakamiss yan doc gelo!
oh my, you’re a U-belt baby too, ms. elna? i’m from feu so like you, i miss that morayta branch too…
medyo late bloomer ako that i first appreciated greenbelt and glorietta during the late 90s, hehehe
I miss A&W rootbear floats. When I was in High School, my friends and I would have merienda at A&W at Fiesta Carnival in Cubao, (where KFC is now located) before riding the jeepney home. We would stare at the crew when getting the mug at the chiller and the ginormous scoop of vanilla ice cream
hi ingrid! i wish someone would revive a&w in pinas, don’t you?
yummy burger and fries
