For fries with sauce/topping, I really like Wurstbar.

For plain fries, I second bob white.

I think wurstbar are the best because:

  1. Hand cut
  2. Soaked in water for 24 hours so starch removed = perfect crunch with soft interior
  3. House made dipping sauces

Bob White sounds like the name of a hardware store. Also I’ve lived in JC for 7 years and haven’t heard of this place and feel stupid because French fries are my desert island food. Tell me more about Bob White please.

To be completely honest Bob White is the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. And I love fried chicken. I’m a regular now after discovering them a year ago and probably frequent at least once a week.

its bougie popeyes. 20% better for 2x the price. but when you think about how good popeyes is you realize bobwhite is dangerous.

Bob White is not twice the price. A chicken sandwich at BW costs $7.79 and Popeyes charges $8.99. The BW sandwich is relatively smaller but not by that big of a margin.

Great chicken, dope fries. The fish sandwich with the remoulade sauce ain’t bad either.

I only like them in person. Gotten Uber eats a few times and the fries were stale

Fries don’t travel well. They quickly steam themselves and get soggy.

I’ll second the vote for Wurstbar for saucy fries but I’ll throw Brightside in the ring for plain fries.

Twinz Hot Chicken, nobody knows about this place but their sandwich is better than Nashville. Loaded fries and special sauce too

White star truffle fries are awesome. Also love the buffalo fries at left bank. The real question is who has the best disco fries?

White Star ditto. Good fries, douche bartender

Second that. The white star truffle fries with the chipotle dipping sauce are 🔥.

Not JC, but Elysian in Hoboken does a pretty solid plain fry.

Their fries went to trash. They replaced the delightful steak cut fries with Sodexo standard straight before the end

Random, but the fries at Ibbys are perfectly crunchy

No such thing as perfect fries. Too many valuations of what’s good.

I will second this. Perfectly crispy.

Their handmade chips and salsa is also really good (especially with guac).

@ Mickey D’s you have to tell them you want hot fries & you’ll wait for them ( Shoot I do it & it is worth the wait) if not you’ll get Fries sometimes stale, oily, & limp - Blah!
