    Website and app showed a 10 o'clock closure. Showed up to pick up an online order at 930 and the girl told me they were closed. Even showed the app with the order confirmation, but was told they were going to cancel the order. This is ridiculous. They were still in the store, but decided to close 30 minutes early. I understand the holidays, I work them myself, but should have honored the hours listed.

    Came through to a stall around 12:30. The female that answered our call was rude and forceful. She stated things like “yeah I heard that, did you want anything else?” In a tone that was unwelcoming. She slammed the door when she saw us and was handing food out to another car. Idk what this locations deal is but this girl is losing your business some serious money with that attitude. Merry Christmas to that grinch! Hope you get her heart to grow.

    Service was RUDE. No greeting, no thank you, nothing. I had a decent sized order and felt like I had to rush to get it out! And what else? and? Is that it? No courtesy whatsoever. Saving grace is the order came out hot and accurate.
