Anna is glowing today!
Awh, thank you!!
Girl! Your hair is popping! Also thank you for the review!
Awh, thank you! You’re too sweet!!
Right!?! She looks amazing!
Was going to say the same thing! That haircut / color is beautiful! Love the style!
I thought so too!! Looking Gorgeous!!!
Completely agree! I was going to say the same thing! I LOVE your hair girl!! Looks GREAT! And I’m so excited to try Mel’s the next time I’m at Universal! Thank you guys for the great video! 🤗☺️
So many videos back to back. I appreciate you guys for your hard work!
Thank you!! We appreciate you watching!
Amen!
100%
Anna, you are glowing today! You always look super cute 😊. And Thank you both for a review of Mel’s Drive-in that didn’t simply bash everything on the menu! It’s basic theme park food, but that doesn’t mean that it’s bad. Can’t wait to try. I love how the refurb turned out! Thanks for sharing!
You’re too sweet, thank you!! 🥰 we’re so glad you enjoyed this one, and you’ll have to let us know what you think of the new menu!
Back to back to back Pugh Two videos makes my heart happy! ❤️
Haha yay!! We love it!
Hi Pugh two!!! You guys are one of my favorite CZcamsrs. My boyfriend and I are visiting universal April 17th and have used your videos to learn all about it. We can’t wait to visit and thank you both for all of your videos on helping us plan our day. You two are phenomenal and we love you both!!
I know this is a food video but Ana's new hair style is the star! 😍 she's gorgeous!
You’re so sweet, thank you!! 🥹😭
I had the same thought lol
I hope you already know that Mel's Diner is from the Movie American Graffiti from 1974. It had Ron Howard in it as well as Richard Dryfess and many other stars. That's why those cars are out front. They're in the movie.
Oh yes!! We just didn’t mention it lol we’ve never seen the movie, but have heard that’s where it’s from. We should watch it one day!
Anna your hair is beautiful!!! And thanks for showing all the food! Yum!
Oh my gosh, thank you!! You’re too sweet!
please continue to have unbiased reviews on the food; like the recommendation for more salt. Not many theme park youtubers rate them for real. a lot of them simply give it a big yumm and on to the next one
We always try to talk honestly about our experiences! At the end of the day, it’s theme park food, so our expectations are lower than they would be outside the parks, but we still have expectations! Lol
Mel's needed a revamp. I'm glad they changed the menu some. The food was not great before and options were minimal. I'm excited to try the new menu options. Great review. I always love how honest your reviews are.
Aww thank you guys! Its definitely not our favorite restaurant in the parks even with the revamp, but it is so much better than it used to be!
If there were awards for theme park vloggers you'd easily win for cinematography, hands down the best, absolutely crushing it!
That means more to us than we can express! Ill definitely let Tyler read this because he is so critical of his footage
ANNNA THIS HAIR !!!!! you look BEAUTIFUL
Thank you!! You’re too sweet!
So Excited to try! I will be there with my wife in 2 weeks! Love the hair Anna!
That’s so fun! We hope you have a great time at the parks and thank you!!
Anna's hair is amazing! Tyler looks less cardboardy today. Interesting.
Haha thank you!!
Loving all the awesome videos back to back…….😊😊. So excited Mel’s is back open…. Loving all the new menu items ❤❤. Moose needs an extra treat for getting this video to load 😊😊 Anna your hair is stunnning…. Makes me wanna go red:-)
Oh my gosh, thank you!! We’re so glad you enjoyed this one! And yes!! Moose has the magic touch 😂
Cool Hair Style Anna! Also, Great Cut on the Beard! Just noticing the updates! Great JOB!! Thank you for the Sacrifice of having to "eat" all that food for us. Thank you! I have never been to Mel's but I will have to go and try it!! When you do some vids' can you point out if you get a discount (AP) and how much? PS. Great JOB!! the Edits and Transitions are definitely looking professional!!
Thank you!! We’re so glad you enjoyed this one! Depending on which annual pass you have, it’s either a 10 or 15% discount on food which usually equates to a dollar or two on each item. It’s nice! Lol
Tyler, you were showing off that classic 90s McDonald's McSalad Shaker technique! 😂
It’s the execution that makes it, really 😂
Nothing beats a Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich (at least from fast food restaurants)
These are FACTS
Facts. That first run
Hey Tyler you were shaking that salad Fast and Furiously 😂 No but seriously some of those dishes look really good. I’ll have to try them out. As always, thanks for the review.
😂😂 he was keeping it on brand lol it was a much needed upgrade!
This was very much needed! Glad it got a facelift
Agreed!! Lol
I'm with Anna - more sauce lol (and the jukebox needs to work). Mac & cheese with hot dog in it is always a good choice. Glad Tyler gave that a shoutout. Strawberry milkshakes are my personal favorite. And Tyler's salad shake was on point. The only way to do it imo
Right?? They should just put it on the side so you can sauce it to your liking! Lol
New food looks delicious, and Anna your hair looks great!!
Thank you so much!!
Omg you literally broke my thought’s tonight, I visited from the uk in sept and was gutted that it was closed as we went there many years ago. It looks fantastic.
I’m with you on the cheese cake , not a fan but that cookies and cream looked delicious. Thanks guys for the vlog 👍🏻 happy to see Mel’s open.
The Oreo pie was SO good!! And thank you, we’re so glad you enjoyed this one!!
The literal BEST channel out there when it comes to Universal content! From the vibes to the editing, hands down kudos to Anna (for keeping the vibes lifting) and Tyler (for the amazing camera work and BTS)!
Oh my gosh thank you! You’re so sweet! We really appreciate all the kindness and support, and thank you for watching!
Anna:
Yes! Chocolate > strawberry every time! But the strawberry good humor bars are so yummy and that’s what those crumbles on the shake looked like.
Floppy fries rule!
That Oreo cream pie looked heavenly!
Tyler:
The hot dog looked delicious!
21 years ago the ATL Popeyes did me wrong and I have never been back.
Team key lime pie!!!
Yes to ketchup on onion rings!
What’s up with the tee shirt?
Ride or die!!! Fast and furious t shirt
Idk what that strawberry bar you’re talking about is, but I need one! Those crumbles were so good!! lol
@@ThePughTwo it’s an ice cream bar that comes in chocolate or strawberry and they are delicious! Good Humor is the brand but I think some stores have a generic version too.
Anna´s eyes were popping in this video! So beautiful!
Oh my gosh, thank you!!
So good to get a preview of almost all the food! Would love it if y’all actually tried and showcased some of the plant based options though 😊
We’ll keep that in mind for next time! We’re always afraid to because we don’t have a good baseline to compare them to. Thanks for watching!!
Universal restaurants are all mostly great. Personal favorites in the park are Lombard's Seafood Grill, Finnegan's Bar & Grill, & Confisco Grille. Still happy that Mel's opened up again and the new menu looks great :)
Those are both great! There’s some good food in the parks if you know where to look!
Shoutout to Universal Parks News Today in the background there, I see you!
Shoutout Annie and Tom! 🫶🏻
Hey, glad to see you guys doing the entire menu videos. I think they are great. I'm catching up on videos because we were just at Universal for a month. Loving the channel growth. Good job!
A month?? That’s awesome! We hope you had a wonderful trip, and we hope you enjoy all the videos!
Totally agree about the Popeye's sandwich! Looking forward to trying that Big Bopper Burger!
It was a good burger!! Those are hard to come by in the parks lol
Anna is extra beautiful in this video!! ☺️ thanks for the review. Have always enjoyed Mel’s, can’t wait to check out the revamp!
Oh, you’re so sweet! Thank you!!
I love your hair. Thanks for the review always appreciate the full menu reviews
Thank you!!
Strawberry shortcake ice cream bar crumble!!!! The best!!!
Idk what that is, but I need it lol
Love the hair girly!!!!😍😍
Thank you!!
That place is so good
The chicken sandwich at leaky cauldron is soooo good
I’m not sure we’ve had that one!
OMG!!! Loving your hair 😊😊
Thank you so much! You’re so sweet!
Good to see I’m not the only one that eats burgers upside down!
Haha whatever it takes to keep it from falling apart!
Watched with my mom and grandma and the first thing my grandma said was “ooo Anna’s hair style and color is really pretty”
So excited to be back in the parks in two weeks to go try some of these goodies!!
So sweet, thank you!! 🥹 we hope you enjoy all the new food!
Anna is one of the cutest but with this hair....whoa stunning!!!
😂😭 you’re too sweet! Thank you!!
Tyler, you're not wrong about the chili cheese dog. That looks like they whispered "cheddar cheese" next to the hot dog. That looks more like a chili dog with a cameo of cheddar cheese.
Right?? They needed WAY more cheese lol
Love your videos,they are so helpful and ,Anna,I LOVE your hair!!
Thank you so much!! You’re too sweet!
Thank you for this. Love this place❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
the onions rings from DQ>>>>
Right?? Lol
Yay I’m so glad they renovated and revamped it so well and without losing its charm!
Yes!! It looks amazing!
Anna - thought you were looking extra gorgeous today, LOVE the hair!
Oh thank you! You’re so sweet!!
Hey guys I love y'all's videos and yay food video glad to see Tyler in this video
Thank you, Julia!!
@@ThePughTwo your so welcome you guys
Anna the Hair!!! Love it!!
Thank you!!
I didn’t recognize Anna at first. Lovin’ the hair girl!
Haha thank you!!
Anna's hair looks so good. I love onion rings too.
Thank you!! 🫶🏻
Yaaaaas Anna! Looking glam! :)
You’re so sweet, thank you!!
I love these two!
Haha thank you! We love y’all too! 🫶🏻
If you want that level of cheese on a hot dog, you need to visit Cincinnati some day. They'll hook you up!
Haha heck yeah!
So excited the Mel’s is back open! Can’t wait to try it on my next trip in September 🙌🏻
LOVE your videos!!!! My favorite vloggers for sure. Thank you! I also have to say, Anna.. you look great. Love your hair!
Thank you so much!! You’re so sweet! 🥹🫶🏻
I was there on Monday and it was still closed. Sooo glad it's back open...can't wait to try that bacon and onion ring burger! Thanks for the reviews; these help me with my food choices while in the parks.😊❤
It was so good! We hope you get to try it soon!
Anna! Your hair looks GORGEOUS ❤
Thank you!! 🫶🏻
My next trip is going to have to be an Orlando Informer meetup so I can try all these foods without breaking the bank! It looks so good.
Smart
Definitely book an OI meetup. I love going myself. Just to clarify though in case you didn’t know, not everything on the day menu will be available during the OI meetup. There are always several options but you won’t have 20 items at one place (except for Springfield because there are like five different places in that food court).
Haha yes!! They’re the best!
Thank you for the great video as always. the food looks delicious , another place for my family to try when we go. The entertainment value priceless, we just love watching you two and how you compliment each other . What a great couple you are, take care.
Thank you, Jim!!
We tried to get over to Mels tuesday, but the line was downthe street! Glad to catch your review!
Haha it got crazy fast! We hope you get to eat there soon!
Anna, your hair looks amazing !! And Tyler is handsome as ever.
Thank you!! 🫶🏻
I love your hair Anna! And I love your videos. Helps me so much to decide where we’re going to eat when we go. Thank you!❤
Awh, thank you! We’re so glad they’ve been helpful!
OMGSH!! The excitement I had for another vid this week!! Love your food reviews, too!! Also, yall need to rank the best fries in the park 🤣❤️
Haha thank you! So glad you enjoyed this one!! 🥳 we’ve thought about doing that video one day 😂
The food looks great! I love the new renovations with the place, very cute! Thank you two for showing us the new foods/reviews! Also have you had ihop onion rings? They're pretty good lol
Haha I don’t think we have! I’m not sure I’ve had anything but breakfast from there honestly.. 😂 now we’re curious!
i feel like looking at the photos, mel's gives very strong steak and shake vibes! classic diner sort of energy. I will say, if tyler loves chili dogs, maybe one day you could swing by to try skyline chili! its an ohio/kentucky sort of thing, and theres one that recently opened by disney (near flamingo crossings). they give you SOOOO much cheese!
😂😂 it really does but in the best way. And thank you for the suggestion! He’ll have to check that out sometime!!
Thank you guys, some of those items looked delicious, Anna your hair looked so pretty today 😀
Thank you!! You’re too sweet!
Ana’s hair is gorgeous. Yaaaaas!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!! 🥹
That strawberry milkshake kinda looks like those strawberry shortcake ice cream bars 🍓🍰🍦
Someone else said that! I need to try those cause it was delicious!!
Anna, your hair is fabulous!!
Thank you!! ☺️
Back to Back videos! Wow!
So many videos!! Lol
We haven't tried Mel's in years. We'll check-it-out in a few weeks; I really like the MCM interior. And Anna, your hair looks great!
It’s much better than it used to be! And thank you, Matt!!
👍 Oh my goodness! 😍 Anna's new hair do is made of happiness and beautiful goodness 💖. Always loved the curls but, you look like a freakn movie star ⭐✨
😊 thank you! You’re too sweet!! 🫶🏻
Your videos are really top notch! 👏 Tyler you're really elevating the quality 👌
Thank you!!
I love a hotdog with a poppy seed "bum"! 😂
Best typo ever! x
😂😂 pro tip: don’t make graphics at 3 am. I copied the descriptions from Universal’s website so I was really hoping that typo came from them, but it didn’t lol not sure how that happened 🤷🏼♀️😂
I was in the insta reel story and im also in this vid! Whoot!
00:26, the asian with the blonde hair over tyler’s right shoulder on his phone. That’s me!
Oh that’s so funny! We love it!! We hope you enjoyed Mel’s!
@@ThePughTwo i did overall. I had the big bopper and I was talking to Tyler about it.
I told him I wished they had more bbq sauce on the burger cuz im one who likes to drench things in sauce. The patty was a bit dry but nothing to write home about. I liked that they used an onion ring instead of grilled or raw onions.
As for the fries, a bit salty and hot cuz its fresh so its pretty standard and acceptable but was curious as to how anna would rate em compared to Richter’s. (Which i found out watching the video that Richter’s still reign supreme)
But id deff go back next time ans get it again, pretty decent meal nonetheless. And with passholder discount, the prices arent that bad either.
Love the hair Anna! ❤
Thank you!!
I used to work for DQ and I gotta say DQ onion rings are dope
😂😂 you’re not wrong lol
After long days of work at the Hospital I'am always so happy to watch these videos. Thank you for always sharing great contents, Mel's will definitely be on my to do list ( I honestly wanna eat everything you guys had haha ) when I come back to Universal Studio in April and hoping to meet the both of you as well! Keep doing what y'all do, love the enthusiasm and energy!!! We appreciate you guys sooooooo much!!!
I appreciate the job you do. By chance trauma? I know rockstarts but just asking. No matter where you work good stuff
Oh my gosh, you’re so sweet! Thank you for watching, we really appreciate it and we hope to see you in April!!
Hi Anna I really like your hair down in this video and I always like the way you two interact with us and each other You guys are definitely my favorite, I know so much about the parks and the food through you it's great and yes please some more staycations😊 and food 😁
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate you watching!
No strawberry milkshake? Really Anna. Ok. I had many..though i agree chocolate for life...and honey mustard is best thing to dip chicken tenders in....maybe chick fil la sauce as a compromise...😂
Delicious review! 😋
Thank you 😋
I just ate at Mel’s. It was wonderful and I am now waiting for the parade to start. Feet don’t fail me now.
Haha that’s so fun! What a perfect night!!
Anna your hair looks extra beautiful in this video ❤
Thank you both for the review. The re vamp looks good!
Oh thank you! You’re so sweet!!
Mels diner! Fun video, food looks delicious, love the theming, my husband and I have love American Graffiti! I can't wait to try that fried chicken sandwich! Thanks, love your you tube vlogs!
Thanks for watching, Paul!! We hope you enjoy that sandwich, too!
Um LOVING Anna’s hair today! 😍
Yay! Thank you!
Loving the hair style! (and the bass pro shop hat for him too lol)
Lol thank you!!
That chicken sandwich looked legit!
It was shockingly good!
Would love more of these types of videos for different restaurants around the parks.
Thanks for the suggestion!!
Its official. Tyler is my favorite person on the internet. 🎉🎉
Wait wait wait… what did he do to earn that title over ME? 😂🤣
My man Tyler...always killing it. Annas mad..lol
Dr. Seuss style: oh my gosh can you really try everything? Universal must have some great catering!! The big bopper burger looks really great - it didn't last long on Mel's diner plate. So nothing was there ...themed with banana - but we have a new nickname...Mrs. Saucy Anna! She loves all the sauces and eats them with ease....while Tyler eats hot dogs with MOUNTAINS of cheese! His favorite onion rings that he's ever seen, aren't from Mel's - but from Dairy Queen! So thanks for showing us all of the yums - I hope you both brought plenty of tums!!!
😂😂 I think this one might be your best yet! I love it!!
Lol great review, food looks good! And I agree with the other posts, your hair is fire girl. Lol the first thing I thought about the video was how I wish my hair would do that haha
Haha thank you!! I went to the salon the day before, so I definitely can’t do that on my own 😂
Darn! I was hoping that was a strawberry banana when I saw the pie image the first time.
EW that would’ve been worse lol I’m glad there was nothing banana flavored
DQ also has the best chicken strips. Love the straight hair Anna!
Man all this DQ talk now I want it for dinner! Lol
Thank god guys another video amazing that is why you are number one love you guys
🫶🏻🫶🏻 thank you, Dougie!!
@@ThePughTwo you are very welcome pal
Gosh am I gonna have to drive down for that strawberry milkshake this weekend?

I guess I'll have to stop by Mel's Drive In when I return to universal. That food looks amazing! Also, Anna looks stunning with her hair down! Keep the videos coming! I love watching your content!
It was good!! And thank you, you’re too sweet!
Anna, your hair looks great.
