Ask about our Happy Meal! Or better yet, don't.

:(

This place is actually really cool. iirc it's an all vegan restaurant, with a lot of their menu copied from McDonald's, including a Frowny Meal. Also, has a way more pleasant interior than your average McDonald's.

It looks a lot more fun and vibrant than McDonald’s buildings look these days lmao

I absolutely hate the modern McDonald's redesign. The older design was a lot more 'alive', I guess you could say.

Definitely prefer the older designs!

The snack that frowns back Mr. Charlie's

We have a vegan fast food place called Oddburger that has vegan versions of Big Mac, Whopper, Baconator, et al. Damn delicious!

I would call Mr Charlie’s a parody and not an off brand.

And it's not crappy either, it's actually fantastic

But … why didn’t they actually turn that frown upside down?

they did :( here's a frown turned upside down ):

ت

Maybe the yellow chairs are actually supposed to be the eyes. And it’s really a spider smiling while on its back oooooooo \ _______ /

now that's thinking outside of the box

Depression Meal, this week’s toy is a piece of coal.

They have the Big Mac, we have the Big Mick. They use a sesame seed bun. Our buns have no seeds.

As an overweight Irishman I am OFFENDED

just looking at those sad meals to the left

After Charlie got fired from the smiling friends company. He started his own fast food restaurant

I’ve heard of this before lol

I heard of this place. It's legit lmao

I went and checked, and there was 3 locations of this thing!? All in western US

seen it in person it looks like a millennial attempt at counterculture but turned out really corny

interior is literally just covered in andy warhol prints and fake neon lights it’s pretty bad

That sounds pretty rad tbh

it just all like low hanging fruit in terms of “edgy” design choices

Still absolutely sounds like my kind of place 🤷🏻‍♀️

McDonalds at home

So this is what Charle Bucket did with Wonka's factory!

This must b where the children that get abused by their parents go lol.

It's a popular place on La Brea in LA. It's a vegan McDonald's basically. Not off brand, it's a parody.

If they turn that frown upside down they would have to shut down

I'm lovin' it.

Timmy, where do you want to go? I want to buy a sad meal!

Finally, the unhappy meal

Rarlie McCharlie

Really? No one thought of Ozzy Osborne?

Yes, why do they want me to turn the frown upside down yet the logo is a frown?

“Da da da da daaaa”

Now I get why "Turn that frown upside down" is a deleted dialog on Crash Twinsanity: Copyright issues XD.

"Turn That Frown Upside Down" Because whoever made the logo was too lazy to do so.

“turn that frown upside down”☹️

Feels like the founder huffed too much glue

I knew Ray Kroc was onto something.

Looks good but not paying $20+ to try the experience. Plus, I just hate driving to SF in general, lol.

I remember a dylan video had this

frowny meal

Mmm yes the kill all carnists meal

Single arch frown. ☹️

shouldn't the motto be turn that smile upside down

Unhappy meal

I'd prefer this place, looks happier

He not loving it

This is a parody brand. Rule 3

ba ba ba ba baa i’m hating it

VVcDonalds

The only problem is they don't serve bark, grass, leaves, worms here nor 100% ground beef or vegan water

This is the equivalent of "we got McDonald's at home"

Fucked up in the crib eating Mr Charlie’s

It’s the vegan version

Home of the Unhappy Meal

Why would they make the building look like it's frowning? Surely that's counterproductive?

Actually, this a version of mcdonal’s, but vegm
