You should be able to find something by doing a google search. Here is a list from one site.
More Fast Food Frequencies

Personally, I've only successfully used Close Call once, and I was actually sitting in the McDonald's lounge. I found the frequency almost immediately. It was almost like a switch; as soon as I walked out the door, the signal disappeared. I'm not sure if whatever they put int the walls prevents it from going outside of the building, but that's what it seemed like to me. Maybe it's just so low-powered, it won't go through the walls. So if you're going to use Close Call (or equivalent), your best chance would probably be to sit in the lounge with a pair of small, discrete headphones or earphones, and scan for the frequencies that way.

Also some of the drive thru can be heard for several miles, all depends on the frequency & surroundings

In my area, I've been able to pick up Arby's, KFC, LJS and Taco Bell for several miles. Was not able to pick up anything from McD's or BK outside of the lobby. One of the Taco Bell locations has a constant dead carrier and then the audio is turned on and off.
