    Just went through a few moments ago. Dined in. The dining room and restrooms were gross. The drinks in the lobby were ALL flat, no carbonation and no ice either. We ordered 3 combos ($40), waited for our food at least 10 minutes. Fries were cold, burgers were all luke-warm with WAY too much ketchup. The worst Wendy’s meals were have ever had. We won’t be back.

    Ordered chicken sandwich biggie bag and 4 JR Cheeseburgers. Had to point out I didn’t get my nuggets, just an EMPTY BOX. Got my nuggets but the point is how do you put an empty box in the bag. My 4 cheeseburgers didn’t have any cheese but I had already left and wasn’t going back. Check your orders.

    I made a mobile order for a maple bacon chicken croissant combo with the homestyle potatoes 😋 When I arrived, I was greeted & handed my order.. It was hot and fresh and tasted so good!

    Don’t ever go here. There mobile pick up is a joke. The employees act like you are bothering them when you come in. And they are always out of something. Its the one In Calhoun next to the pilot. Drive through employees are very rude also. They will not help you just tell you to move on. If they worked for me they would be fired on the spot. They give your restaurant a bad name.

    I go to Wendy’s before work. Order the EXACT same thing. Double stack biggie bag ONLY MAYO!!!! Sweet chili sauce sprite no ice extra sweet chili sauce. I’ve worked fast food so I run The order down the same every time! This is THE SECOND TIME this week I’ve gotten to work and have a fully dressed burger! The order taker did not ring it up right and so they made what she punched in: please train the people to place the order as the customer states if they’re not going to relay the message of how it’s made! Ion care how much it cost I would Like what I asked For.
