    I have never had to wait 4 mins for the drive thru to answer the drive through call. Even after backing up and pulling forward. Very slow!

    We come here pretty frequently and it’s always the wait that gets to us. We waited at the stalls for about 10 minutes and then moved to the drive through where we waited another 10 minutes without even being greeted. I’ve worked in fast food for 6 years, you’re always supposed to greet people as soon as they pull up. At least let us know it’s going to be a second. “Hey thank you for choosing (whatever restaurant) take a look at the menu and I’ll be with you in just a moment!” It really is that simple. I am so disappointed. It felt like we were just being ignored while the drive through piled up behind us.
