5. New York Fries
A Canadian classic. New York Fries is a favorite of TJA’s Canadian senior graphic designer. From what we hear, these are the best fries ever. Guess we’ll have to grab our passports and take a company trip up north to find out for ourselves.
6. The Vig
Uptown, Arcadia or Fillmore, The Vig has some of the best fries in Phoenix. Pair them with the legendary Vigazz Burger for the perfect meal!
7. The Stand
An Arcadia staple, The Stand not only has some of the best tacos and burgers in town, their house-made fries are out of this world. And don’t forget a side of the special Stand Sauce!

9. Portillo’s
Because how could you possibly say no to French fries with cheese sauce?!
10. Cornish Pasty Co.
Hand cut and oven cooked with cracked pepper and sea salt, the Oven Chips from Cornish Pasty Co. are heavenly. And if you’re feeling a little adventurous, add a little garlic or jalapeño for some spice.
11. McDonald’s
Ahhh…a classic. Take a moment to think back to those happy meals from when you were a kid…or if you’re like some TJAers, the ones you still get. McDonald’s fries are perfect for when you’re feeling a little nostalgic.

15. The Grocery Store
If you’re one of those people that finds comfort in their kitchen, then all you need to do to celebrate National French Fry day is pop these Ore Ida curly fries in your over for a few minutes. Extra crispy or a soft and squishy, you can make them anyway you please.
