It was a long long time ago but I think it was in 1995 when I was working on a house in South Philly and while out on a materials run I passed by a Checkers fast food store that I had never even heard of before. Since there were times when I needed a meal during the day and there were not a lot of other affordable places to go around there I decided to give them a try and see if they were worth visiting again. I dont remember what I ordered that first time but Im pretty sure it was some sort of burger and an order of fries. Upon receiving my meal I opened the bag and saw that the fries were not the normal nasty fries that other fast food places use but rather looked like they had some good flavor to them and were not all dried out from being overcooked. To my delight I honestly thought I had found the best fries of any fast food place but knew that since that was the only Checkers I had ever seen anywhere and since my visits to South Philly are few and far between I realized that once that job was done so were my days of having good fries with my burger which also had a better than average flavor to it as well. It was only a few months later though that I was doing a job way up in Camden County where depending upon the route I took to get there I saw that there was a Checkers that had opened up near the high speed line in Lindenwold. I of course took several opportunities to have a meal there while in the area and then I heard the good news that there was going to be one opening in Glassboro, although it is only about a half hour from home which is too far to run out for a quick bite it was closer to where a lot of the work I was doing was located so once again I found myself there for lunch at least a couple times a month. I also began to notice other Checkers opening all around South Jersey and Delaware and thought we were onto a treat to have so many that if you did need a meal and really felt like eating fast food you finally had a choice of somewhere to go. Of course as with all good things coming to an end so did the Glassboro Checkers for whatever reason Im not sure but my guess is that it had to do with management hiring people who did not want to work but just put in their time till closing. Service there was getting bad to where that if I had my druthers I would either pack a meal or just not have lunch. I was glad a few years ago though when the store was moved and reopened as it gave me a chance to get some good fries again and since work had died down with the bad economy I wasnt going to other spots that still had restaurants open. I have only been here a handful of times since they reopened but the service has always been good and the young ladies who work there dont just grunt as they throw your food at you like they did before it closed at the other location. The reason I am only giving them 3 stars is because on two of those visits they were out of a main ingredient in their burgers that should not have happened. I dont remember the first time but with this visit they have signs for a mushroom burger of some sort but when I went to order it they had no mushrooms so I had to make another selection. Oh well things happen and its not the end of the world, almost but not yet.
