Jack in The Box

Ok. I guess I need a life! I woke kind of late for me… about 10 am… I was feeling down so I decided to go out and do something. I ended up driving down to the States to pick up a parcel for my friend, and spend the day at Bellis Fair Mall. I guess it’s a way to kill a boring Tuesday hey?
After picking up my friend’s package I picked up some water and gas. I as I was heading down to Bellis Fair I decided to stop at the Jack In the Box for a quick lunch. Anyways I ended up order a Sourdough burger combo (with curly fries, and a small soft drink). Overall, I was kind of grossed out by the whole experience! Ok the fries were pretty good. Curly, seasoned, and a bit oily… The burger I was not happy with. Jack in the Box advertises that they don’t start building your burger till you order it… too bad they don’t heat up your burger after they build it for you! My burger was lukewarm… shading towards down right cold. Nothing I hate more than a cold burger! Guess I wasn’t that hungry… I chomped down ½ of it and trashed the rest.
I know Jack in the Box is a fast food joint, but I think they should take the time to heat up their food to a decent level! I won’t be coming back to this location in the next future!!!

This place is as good as fast food gets. I do not know what to really write about a fast food place, but I will say this: the service is great and the food is hot and amazing.
Also, always order the Portobello Mushroom Buttery Jack whenever they bring it back for a limited time.
Remember this 5 star review is in comparison to other fast food restaurants not in relation to a fine dining restaurant.

This was horrible service waited 15 mins inside at the front counter we were the first people in line before they even tried to serve us !!! It seemed like the employees were high on drugs.

We were at the nexus office at Birch Bay Square. My daughter keep say I’m hungry because I just pick her up from school, so open Unilocal and I found jack in box so close. My daughter and my son ordered home style ranch chicken club and they cut in half and I ordered 2 tacos for 99 cent. The chicken was good, the tacos was ok. The staff was friendly. I’ll come again.

I must be delirious to give a fast food joint a 4 star but I just broke virgin ground, never been here til now, kinda unbelievable but I digress…
Seriously, after crossing the border, I must’ve driven by here a zillion times, looks big from the highway but really, medium-​sized, maybe 40 seats. Just high and big, a stand alone building, by the supermarket.
Played it safe, ordered the Sirloin w/​swiss cheese and onions (that’s what caught my eye), guy asked if I wanted bacon, and for 60 cents, though 2 thinly cut small pieces, it’s well worth the added taste.
What blew me away: the bun! soft as a pillow, would make some burger real restaurants envy, as pic shows. Loved their house sauce too, and fresh veggies. A bit overkill on the pickles, but real ones, bigger than what you get a mcdonald’s.
But it’s not cheap for ‘fast food’, almost $ 7 just for the burger alone! well, i opted out for the combo ($ 1.80 extra0 just for health reasons *smirk*.
It did take a few more minutes, but that’s possibly a good thing, so maybe it’s true what they say, they only make it after it’s been ordered, implying it’s fresh and not sitting around lol.
Nice clean big washrooms.

The heart-​shattering disappointment that this «restaurant» brings is dynamic and flexible. They find new ways to not fulfill your order with each visit. Service is incredibly slow, with the most recent visit showing a 20 minute wait before food was served.
Management seems to be the issue, as they were out of medium lids at the time. The staff are generally quite friendly, though they seem uniformly weary, most likely from the unending tirade of complaints from other visitors.
We chose not to complain to the staff as it seems unfair to subject them to that sort of interaction when the problems are most assuredly endemic to the location itself.

Sour Dough Jacks at 8AM? YES, please!
This is the first Jack In The Box you can hit once you cross the border from Vancouver to USA. It’s open 24 hours and there’s plenty of parking. Their coffee is horrendous though.
