Pirates say “arrr,” according to many pirate movies. There is a joke:
 
Q: What’s a pirate’s favorite restaurant?
A: Arrrby’s.
 
The Arby’s joke has been cited in print since at least 2003. However, some believe that a pirate’s favorite restaurant is Long John Silver’s.
 
   
Wikipedia: Arby’s
Arby’s Restaurant Group, Inc. (/ˈɔrbiz/) is the second largest quick-service sandwich chain in the U.S. with more than 3,400 restaurants system wide.
