Deep Space 9 had food replicators.

Starfield has Chunks, a full on fast food chain with multiple locations. Some are on space stations, some are on planets.

You can also find their vacuum-sealed food everywhere.

The Spaceburger looks pretty dope.

Babylon 5 had at least a few pizza take aways.

How can you forget McBari’s! They only have fresh spoo, but the flarn is out of this world.

Futurama has Fishy Joe’s. Other than the episode with the Popplers, I’ve only seen it as a space station in the background of some scenes.

There was a Howard Johnson’s restaurant on the space station in 2001.

Of course, both Pan Am and Howard Johnson’s are defunct

SS13 has a chef on the station who makes all sorts of food, but mostly pizzas and burgers. I don’t recommend eating their food though, it’s pretty likely it will be made of your coworkers.

I promise I stuck to making banana bread! So much banana bread. And when frying was a thing, deep fried banana bread!

I think there are some fast food restaurants on the Citadel of Ricks in Rick and Morty.

Wall-E had people ordering liquid fast food on their iPads and having it immediately delivered by drone. So fast food on a space station, but not a conventional restaurant experience i guess.

The Expanse depicts a lot of local street food vendors on different space stations throughout the solar system

Came here to say this. Expanse hits the notes of “real people actually live on this ship/station” way more than any other sci-fi I’ve consumed. Fast food, bars, brothels, restrooms, storage and maintenance areas, all of these are specifically called out at most stations.

I noticed this too, The Expanse does that so well, really fleshing out what life would be like living as a grunt in The Belt. They had their own culture, their own sayings, their own food. Like any colony, it gave host to any number of establishments meant to provide a bit of comfort out in the inky black nothing. The shared suffering also gave them a sense of community, which is a powerful motivator when the far off motherland starts imposing increasingly burdensome levies… Makes you want to grab the closest thing and hurl it at them! 😉

WATCH THE EXPANSE

It’s amazing.

but have and space stations have a fast food restaurant?

So I guess we’re just ignoring that part then

I could ask Microsoft® Bing™ Copilot® (all rights reserved) to make you one.

Not technically a Space Station, but there’s a whole Invader Zim episode on an entire planet being dedicated to fast food, Food Courtia iirc

Fondots ,

In Outer Worlds there’s a couple establishments aboard the groundbreaker that could potentially count as fast food by some definition.

The stand on the citadel in mass effect is maybe fast food-ish

I vaguely remember seeing some stands in the background of Babylon 5 that could potentially have been something like fast food, but I never got into Babylon 5 too much so I can’t say much about that, I just have some vague memories of some parts I’ve seen that looked like fast food wouldn’t be out of place.

Pretty much any time there’s a big space station with a city-like interior I assume there’s probably something like fast food somewhere on board, maybe even visible in the background somewhere, though I can’t really think of any particular examples or any time it was specifically highlighted
