Finally - this was long term observation I conducted in many cities so far (Check Utrecht, The Hague, Valencia, Frankfurt- often the case you have <4 star kebab shops right next to train station) . If not true for kebab on broader scale, it surely is for McDonalds / Burger King: They use their position / monopoly, no coupons accepted, higher prices - and in some cases not even a seating area. A true real life dark pattern right there.

I also rated some of them with 1 star because fast food seemed to have degenerated to "being stuck in waiting line with gigworkers collecting food for other people"-food. Not the best experience when you're on a mission to catch the next train in 15 minutes and they let you wait. @BigFastFoodChain if you read this - Have an extra menu with a category "Super Fast Food" or "Ready & Available in under a minute" that enables people in frequented locations to use their time better. Also goes for supermarkets - add self check-outs!
