You have Chick-fil-A to the left and a new Whataburger to the right. Both of them have long lines everytime I pass down Burbank while Atomic Burger is always empty.

Ive been asking myself the same question about the one in Metairie. They must be locked in leases.

What’s crazy is the McDonald’s is moving right next to them too. Going to be McDonald’s, Wattaburger and Atomic burger all next to each other. Fallowed by the holy grail of course.

The Whataburger lines are unreal. Looks like an Ida Costco gas line 24X7

I do not understand the McDonald's move at all. It does just fine where it is.

I understand Canes moving since that parking lot does not work for their lines at all (although that might improve once WD closes), but McDonald's has its own little corner.

One small concern I have is that the Exxon by Walmart on Highland/Lee shut down soon after being renovated and now is a complete eyesore.. Winn Dixie will be closing and Canes moving, along with McDonalds. The houses next door to Walgreens are horrible..

I hope that little stretch doesn't become really shitty. They already opened a smoke shop/ATM/liquor thing in the old Tiger Tailoring.

Atomic burger is crazy expensive, slow, and not worth what they charge. Bad mixture

Maybe Atomic has better service and gets people out quicker.

Comparing atomic to McDonald’s is laughable.

Similar fast food restaurants perform better when they’re group together instead of spread out. You don’t want to be by yourself away from the group or you will miss out on most of the traffic.

This is bus dev 101. It’s the same reason Pharmacies open up across the street from each other. It’s the same reason food trucks congregate.
