The food I had at Wendy’s didn’t disappoint, but I’d hope to have more options available if I visited again. This all came to £14.76, which is slightly cheaper than the equivalent McDonald's order, although I didn't purchase a drink from the Gravity MAX bar. The Vanilla Frosty was deliciously smooth as well. I’d also argue the standard fries and the spicy chicken nuggets were nicer than McDonald’s too. Thankfully, the Dave’s Single burger (named for the founder of Wendy's, Dave Thomas) was really delicious, with the smooth burger bun making it stand out compared to McDonalds’ equivalent. The venue was extremely busy when I visited, perhaps explaining the shortages. It was the same story with all of the the Chocolate Frosty desserts too, which can be eaten like an ice cream or drank like a milkshake. I was dying to try its famous Chilli Cheese Fries or the Baconator Fries, but they were unavailable. The menu options were also a bit frustrating. The restaurant lacks the prominence of similar franchised takeaways that have moved to the city recently, such as Popeyes on Lord Street. However, it does make Liverpool’s first Wendy’s feel like a bit of an afterthought.

The way the food is delivered definitely fits with Gravity Max’s futuristic vibe and it’s likely no other Wendy’s in the UK is like this. It’s an interesting concept, and the lockers changing colours from a white-purple to green when your food ready, which is pleasing to see. You then pick up your food from an illuminous locker. You receive a text when your order is ready. Instead, you scan a QR code at your table or on the wall and from there you make your order on your phone from a variety of restaurants, including Wendy’s, Creams and 800 Degrees Pizza. But Gravity MAX’s food hall doesn’t operate like that. When I read the food hall was located on the first floor, I was expecting to find a series of counters. The go karting looked like lots of fun, as did the crazy golf. The venue was very busy, with tons of families having fun during the summer holidays. However, at first, I struggled to find it. As a fan of takeaways, I was delighted to see a new one coming to Liverpool. On the Gravity MAX website, it is described as a "must-visit eaterie".

Now, it has launched as part of the new Gravity MAX activity centre in Liverpool ONE. The American franchise announced last November that it would be opening a site in Liverpool as part of its UK expansion. Popular fast food chain Wendy’s has only been exclusive to America and the south of England until very recently. I went to a "must visit" takeaway that had better food than McDonalds, but I was still left frustrated.
