    We come here a couple times a month and are really impressed with the staff. We found out today the managers name is Byron. We just really wanted to commend him for the way he trains his staff and runs this location! They are always nice and the service is quick!

    I ordered a 4 piece chicken tender meal with an Oreo blizzard. The fries were cold, and not just “not hot” they were cold to the touch. Like they had been sitting out for hours. There were only three pieces of chicken. My blizzard had toppings and was not mixed in at all. Just wanted to put this out there that this location is not good.
