As a college student, we often find ourselves juggling 20 different tasks; trying to get enough sleep, maintain a social life, call your parents, study for that exam, make time to go to the gym, and in-between all that find time to eat. Fast food is not always ideal but sometimes it's just more convenient. And who doesn't like an iced coffee to get through what feels like the longest day? Or treating yourself to your favorite junk food after a long week? So here's the list:
1. Dunkin' Donuts/Starbucks
Are you really a college student if you do not go to at least one of these places? I speak for myself but iced coffee is a college must. I do not know if I could've survived some of those late night study sessions without the help of either of these places.
2. Chipotle/Moes
Hold on, before you get offended I know these are two different restaurants. Everyone typically has one they prefer over the other. All opinions aside, Chipotle and Moes are great places to go to get some good food when your cramming or studying for that class you hate. Why not enjoy a burrito or rice bowl while studying for the less than enjoyable class you had to take.
3. Subway
Good old' Subway. Safe to say we all know what subway is. Some of the best subs around. Meatball, turkey, vegetarian, chicken finger, ham, grilled chicken.....yes, lots of options.
4. Pizza
Marks, Dominos, Pizza hut, Cams, Salvatore's, Papa Johns, Little Caesars, Or whichever Pizza place is your go to. And no time to go pick it up? They deliver. Pizza is a college student hit.
5. Mcdonalds/Burger King
Late night cravings? This is probably the go to place. Once again I know these are two different restaurants and you probably have a favorite. But they both can satisfy the late night hunger. Whether that be getting a Big Mac or maybe just an ice cream sundae. It fulfills the craving either way.
6. Wendys
Wendys is also a college favorite. Burgers, Chicken, fries and do not forget the signature frosty. A frosty can help you through any rough day.
7. Bruggers Bagels
Bruggers is perfect for the early morning cram, or afternoon rush.With so many varieties of bagels and cream cheese its hard to not love Brueggers.
8.Taco Bell
Sometimes you just need that late night taco or quesadilla. They also give a student discount, and let's be honest we all appreciate that.
9. Sonic
Another restaurant that is not local to my college, but is a favorite for sure. Sonic is a drive-in, and who would not love going to the drive-in, staying right in your car, eating dinner and studying for your exam, or taking a break and hanging out with friends. Wish we had some closer, super jealous of those who have a local one.
10. Tim Hortons
Tim Hortons, in my opinion, deserved its own category. It's not just a bake shop or coffee shop, but you can get paninis, mac and cheese, soup and other sandwiches. Does not disappoint.
So regardless of your preferences these are by far some of my favorite fast food restaurants. As a college student, these have saved me and my friends for sure. If you are a college student you know how it is. These places make it a little easier. Coffee and bagel with my study session? Yes please.
