Chain?
I mean, sure the top restaurants on my list aren't chains, but if we're gonna restrict it, I'll say Macdonald's. It saved my ass at 2am once while traveling, that's worth a lot.
Nothing quite like that magical moment where you've been walking lost and confused for an hour around a foreign city and your last 4 attempts to find a place to eat have failed, and you say "ugh all right fine" and look for the nearest MacDonald's.
McD is just there for you when you need it, and you know what to expect. I end up there way more than I should due to my work taking me on the roads, after a while you learn to game the menu a bit and order just enough that you've eaten, without indulging.
In my country the other options when on the road are gas stations which aren't more nutritive nor cheaper, or snack-bars with deep fried stuff.
The best is if I can hit it before 11am then I can get the breakfast things which are a good portion and cheaper than the lunch options.
